smallest double buggy pushchairs tend to be larger than single ones, especially when they are side-byside buggies, such as the Kolcraft Geo 3 or UPPAbaby. The good news is that this extra width lets them to accommodate heavier children without straining the chassis. Other features that make them stand out: large pop-out canopy that come with SPF 50 protection, as well as peekaboo windows, swivel-lock front wheels to assist in navigating tight spaces such as shopping aisles, a cup holder for one parent and a smart fold mechanism that operates with one hand. The 10-inch wheels aren't built for rough terrain, but they are able to handle city streets and theme park rides quite well.

In terms of cost they are surprisingly affordable. These types of light, side-by-side buggies are surprisingly affordable.

The lighter a double-buggy is the more easy it is to move and lift. The Joie Evalite Duo, which is the lightest of our lab tests, is an excellent choice if weight is an issue. It's got many features, including the large pop-out canopy, SPF50 and a peekaboo windows and a quick-release folding system that can be stowed flat in seconds and a four-wheel suspension for rough terrain and a swivel wheels on the front, which makes it easy to navigate narrow aisles in supermarkets and shops.

Narrow tandem buggies can be used to squeeze through small spaces. side by side double stroller-by-side models enable you to keep the eye on your children and ensure their safety when you're out at the park or shopping. Many also have a wide selection of seating options, so you can adapt the seat as your children grow, and some even have the option to add a ride-on or car seat.

The Joie Evalite duo is an excellent example. It can be used to support two seats, or even a car seat. The adaptors allow you to convert a single seat to a double in merely seconds.

Tri-fold buggies such as the iCandy Peach are another versatile choice. Their slim frames are perfect for narrow aisles and doors, and they can comfortably accommodate twins, a baby or an adult due to the addition of UPPAbaby's "PiggyBack board (which is available separately).

Tandem buggies are generally designed with your children seated close to each other. This makes them more stable and easy to push on uneven surfaces, however they can be a challenge to maneuver around and over kerbs. They usually have a wider footprint than a single-seater pushchair and can be a bit long to pass through doorways.

It comes with nice-sized UPF 50+ canopies with peekaboo windows; a padded toddler seat and an additional RumbleSeat that has adjustable legs and foot rests; as well as an individual cup holder for parents.
