The Best Double Buggy Strollers
A double buggy is the best if you are expecting twins or have two children of different age groups. The best ones are easy to maneuver and can handle rough surfaces and kerbs.
These cars also come with features such as large sun canopies and transparent hoods, as well as adjustable seats.
1. Baby Jogger City Tour 2 Double
The City Tour 2 Double is the smallest double stroller in the Baby Jogger range. It's designed to travel and fits through standard doors easily due to its narrow and slim design. It's also among the lightest double buggies available with a weight of just 14lbs when folded. It's perfect for traveling with a toddler and a newborn since you won't exceed airline luggage allowances. It folds down to the size of a bag for travel so you can tuck it away in the back of your car when not being used.
It's easy to fold the Z-shape by using one hand. Once you're used to it, it is compact and only takes seconds. However, our tester found the auto lock to be a bit confusing. Also, since the handlebar doesn't lock into place when you press it, it hit her legs when she was using it. She also believed that the handlebar was on the short side. This is especially the case when a large bag for changing hangs from it.
This double stroller is not as lightweight as other travel buggies. It's got a broad array of features and is among the most versatile double strollers on the market. It's compatible with two carrycots (available separately), features various recline positions, and an UV 50+ canopy. You can even add an additional bassinet to one or both seats to transform it into a travel system.
The four rubber composite tires are ideal for pavements and urban terrain. However, they were not made for off-roading. They had a hard time with long grass and gravel and there wasn't enough clearance between the wheel bracket and the wheel, so mud stuck easily. Our tester loved this buggy, and it was able to climb some pretty dirt hills.

It's a heavier tandem buggy however it's incredibly easy to operate and steer, particularly on smooth roads. It is stable in both single and double mode and even on sloping ground.

Our test participants found that the Nipper Double is incredibly easy to navigate, even on bumpy terrain or turning into an area with a lot of traffic. The feature that the seats can be reclined independently was hugely appreciated.
They also appreciated the fact that the hoods could be moved forward and back making them easy to adjust in the sun or for wind protection. They did not offer the same coverage as Baby Jogger City Mini Hoods. It's worth packing an extra rain cover inside the case.
Overall, our test participants were impressed with the Nipper double's ability to let them take their twin daughters Sydney and Lyla to all kinds of adventures. From spotting wildlife in a forest or rushing to a park for a playdate they were thrilled. Our testers were also amazed by how spacious and comfortable the two seats are.
