Size
Double pushchairs tend to be more spacious than single to double pushchair (This Webpage) ones, especially when they are side-by-side buggies such as the Kolcraft Geo 3 or UPPAbaby. This extra width lets them to carry heavier children without straining their chassis. They also have other important features that make them stand out, including spacious pop-out canopies that come with SPF 50 and windows that peek out as well as swivel lock front tires which help navigate narrow spots such as aisles for shopping; a one-parent cup holder and a smart fold mechanism that is able to be completed one-handed; and 10-inch back wheels that aren't built for rough terrain, but can manage city streets and theme parks fairly well.

Weight
The heavier a double buggy is the easier it is to move and lift. The Joie Evalite Duo is a excellent choice if you have to be cognizant of weight, as it's the lightest of our Lab tests. However, it offers a wide range of features, such as nice-sized pop-out canopies with SPF 50 and windows that peek out and a quick-release fold that can be folded flat in a matter of minutes; four-wheel suspension to cope with rough terrain; and an swivel front wheel that makes maneuvering tight aisles of supermarkets and shops effortless.

Flexibility
A double stroller with car seat buggy that is well-designed will provide a great deal of flexibility, regardless if you have twins or two toddlers or a baby. Buggies with narrow tandems are ideal for fitting through tight spaces, while side-by-side models will keep your children well-cared for and allow you to keep your eyes on them as you go to the grocery store or the park. Many also have a wide range of seat configurations that allow you to modify them as your children grow. Some have the option to add a ride-on or car seat.
The Joie Evalite duo is a great illustration. It can fit two seats or a car seat and its adaptors that are easy to use let you change from single to double in a matter of seconds. It has a large pop-out canopy sunshade with UPF 50+ protection, adjustable legrests and a the window that peeks out from both seats. A standing fold is simple to do and quick.

The basket is spacious and includes all the accessories, such as raincovers and liners.
Tandem buggies are generally designed with your children sitting side-by-side. This makes them more stable and easy to push on uneven surfaces, but they can be a challenge to maneuver over and up kerbs. They typically have a larger footprint than a single-seater stroller and can be a bit long for getting through doorways.
Comfort
This is among the most comfortable and lightweight doubles we've tested. It features stadium-style seating on both seats, so your children can enjoy the view. It also features an enormous UPF 50+ canopy with the peek-a-boo window, and a padded toddler seat with an add-on RumbleSeat that has built-in adjustable leg and foot rests, as well as a cup holder for one parent. The seats recline independently by pressing a lever beneath each seat. Testers also love how the straps can be fastened and removed with just one hand.
