What's The Job Market For Double Travel Buggy Professionals?

What to Look For in a double travel buggy, additional reading,

A side-by-side cheap double buggy with an incredibly compact footprint (for narrow doors and public transport). Add seats or carrycots (with adaptors), to increase the frame's weight capacity for children up to 50 lbs.

Budget double with back and front suspension for uneven surfaces. Large storage basket, padded handlebars and large storage basket.

Size

Double pushchairs tend to be more spacious than single ones, particularly when they are side-byside buggies, such as the Kolcraft Geo 3 or UPPAbaby. The good thing is that this extra width enables them to accommodate heavier children without straining the chassis. They also have other key characteristics that make them stand out, such as spacious pop-out canopies that come with SPF 50 and peekaboo windows; swivel lock front wheels that help navigate tight spots such as shopping aisles; cups with a single parent holder, a smart fold mechanism that can be operated one-handed; and 10-inch back wheels that aren't designed for tough terrain but are able to handle city streets and theme parks quite well.

These side-by-side buggies are light and are surprisingly affordable.

Weight

The lighter the double buggy the more easy it is to move and lift. The Joie Evalite Duo is a great option if you need to be aware of weight, since it's the lightest we've seen in our lab tests, but it still has plenty of features, including nice-sized pop-out canopies that come with SPF 50 and windows that peek out; a quick-release fold that folds flat in just a few seconds; four-wheel suspension that can handle rough terrain and a swivel front wheel that makes getting around tight aisles of supermarkets and shops simple. It's also extremely affordable at over PS1,000. It can also carry twins or a baby and toddler with the purchase of an additional'sidepack'.

Flexibility

A double buggy is an excellent option for parents with twins or even a toddler and a baby. Buggies with narrow tandems are ideal to fit into tight spaces, while side-by-side models will keep your children well-cared for and allow you to keep an eye on them while you go to the grocery store or park. A lot of buggies come with a variety seating configurations, so you can modify the seat as your child grows. Some even allow you to add the option of a car seat or ride-on board.

The Joie Evalite Duo is a great example. It can fit two seats or a car seat and its adaptors that are easy to use allow you to change from single to double tandem pushchair in a matter of seconds. It also comes with a large pop-out UPF 50+ sunshade that can be used as a canopy and adjustable leg rests, as well as peekaboo windows in both seats; a standing fold that's simple and quick to fold with one hand; and a high-quality suspension that makes light work of rough terrain.

Tri-fold buggies like the iCandy Peach are another versatile option. Their slim frames are perfect to navigate narrow aisles and doors while they can easily hold twins, a baby or a big kid thanks to the addition of UPPAbaby's "PiggyBack' board (which is available separately). The basket is large and includes all the accessories, such as raincovers and liner.

Tandem buggies are typically made with your kids sitting side-by-side. This can make them easier and more stable to push on uneven surfaces, but they can be a challenge to maneuver up and over kerbs. They have a larger footprint than a one-seater and can be too large to fit through doors.

Comfort

One of the most comfortable lightweight doubles we've tested This buggy comes with seats that are elevated to the level of stadium seats so that your children can have a great view. It also has nice-sized UPF 50+ canopy with peekaboo windows; padded toddler seat and add-on RumbleSeat with built-in adjustable leg and foot rests; and a single-parent cup holder. The seats recline independently by pressing a lever underneath each seat. Testers also love how the straps can be secured and unfastened with one hand. It's also easy to fold, with a twist mechanism on the handle that makes it as easy as could be and also stores with the backrest up to make it easy to access.

With 30 different configurations (it'll accommodate twins as well as a toddler and baby or three kids with the addition of a "PiggyBack" board) This is a great option for families who want to be able to grow with their child. The large basket and soft suspension make it ideal for kerbs, as well as in the city. It's also affordable. BabyGearLab recommends it to children between the ages of 6 and 6.
