A Lightweight Double Buggy For Families With Twins Or Closer Together
A double buggy is a great choice if you have twins or two children with similar ages. They are a lot wider and offer more seating options than single strollers.
They don't have to be heavy or bulky. Some are slim and fold flat, making it easier to move through tight spaces or up and down steps.
Leclerc Influencer
This compact stroller weighs only 6.6 kg and has an auto-folding mechanism that can be operated in only a few minutes. The bassinet is sold separately and can be used from the time of the time of birth. It's cabin-approved for use in overhead bins of flights. Jane, our mum-of-two tester, says the Influencer Air is super-easy to push and provides good stability. She also loves the fact that the sun canopy can be adjusted to give good coverage for taller kids, and that it has a cup holder for a travel cup. You can also purchase additional accessories like a transparent rain cover as well as a Teddy Footmuff which combines a cosy teddy sherpa lining with water-resistant outer fabric to keep you warm in colder temperatures.
Leclerc's Baby Impactcer XL is an upgrade over its peers thanks to its stunning design, vibrant colors and a beautifully constructed frame and fabric materials. Its super-quick one-touch folding mechanism means it can be folded and unfolded in 1.5 seconds making it ideal for daily use or long trips. It includes a travel case to make it easier. It can be packed in your car or on a train or in the overhead compartment of an airplane.
iCandy Orange
The iCandy Orange is a great choice for parents with cash to spend who are looking for a light buggy that has a variety of distinctive cool features. The iCandy Orange has an integrated ride-on board as well as an enormous basket. It can also be set up into a tandem with the risers available.
It's easy to push thanks to its good turning circle, and the suspension bounces on bumps. It's also easy to maneuver even with a toddler in the seat on the front wheels. In double mode, it's slightly more difficult to navigate big curbs, since the weight shifts to the front. However this is the case with the majority of twin buggies.
The back wheels have been made slightly smaller in the 2021 update which makes it easier to navigate tight spaces such as the entrances to shops and doors and on public transportation. The tyres are robust and have treads that can withstand mud and grass. It's easy to fold too - just open a clip in the vicinity of the rear wheels and pull two levers at the handle. It's self-standing when folded, too. A mesh sun shade is also available for the seat and carrycot. It can be affixed within a matter of minutes.
Joie Evalite Duo
The Joie Evalite Duo is a fun and cheerful combo that was engineered and designed to make travelling with two as easy as is possible. It's one of the lightest twin strollers on the market and is simple to transport, ride and load. The stroller can fold in one hand, and is able to stand on its own. It's also compatible with Joie Gemm and i-Snug infant car seats (car seat sold separately) to make an entire travel system.
The rear seat isn't able to fully recline. But, this is a minor flaw in an otherwise excellent double buggy. It's not possible to add an additional board to the buggy, however this is not uncommon for side-by-side designs.
Overall all, the Evalite is a lovely buggy that with a few tweaks could become a perfect model. The seats are comfortable for children of any age and it is easy to drive. The handle is padded to allow it to be more comfortable to hold, and the wheels are suspended to ensure a smooth ride. It's also extremely robust and comes with plenty of storage space. It's also a fashionable stroller that comes in a range of striking colors.
Baby Jogger City Mini
The Baby Jogger City Mini stroller is a small stroller that has many features. It is designed to help parents travel in style and comfort while carrying their children. The stroller has a large storage basket and an adjustable canopy that shields against sun and wind. The stroller also features an extremely durable suspension system as well as an appealing design that is ideal for any outing.
This stroller can be used with one infant car seat and Baby Jogger makes a variety of car seat adapters that work with all major brands. It is compatible with Graco Maxi Cosi Britax and Cybex infant carseats. The stroller can also be converted into a pram with the glider board and tray for children included.
The City Mini is compact and easy to fold. It can be tucked away in most doorways. The City Mini has an adjustable handlebar as well as a parking brake that can be operated by hand. The storage basket is big and can accommodate several shopping bags. The seats are cushioned and recline to an almost flat position. This is perfect for taking naps. Leg support isn't adjustable, and can cause legs to hang. The City Mini GT2 is available in several colors and can be paired with a variety of accessories, such as UV 50 canopies and magnetic windows that can be peekaboo.
Baby Jogger City Select
The Baby Jogger City Select stroller is a versatile dream that can hold up to three children with the addition of a gliderboard. It offers 24 different configurations for attaching infant car seats, bassinets and standard stroller chairs. It also has an exclusive double rear-facing option. This is a top-rated double stroller for people who are seeking a sturdy all-terrain stroller with lots of seating options.
It has a fantastic canopy with plenty of coverage and can be easily adjusted to different head heights. It's higher than the majority of its competitors, so it might not be suitable for parents who have shorter strides, but is still a great choice for those who have longer strides. The front wheels can be used to lock or swivel, which is great for steering on rough terrain.
This stroller has one drawback it is that it's not able to fold like other strollers in this guide. It is only able to fold with the second seat removed, which could be a hassle if you want to store it in your vehicle or a closet. It does, however, have one of the largest storage bins in our rankings, so it will still be a decent fit for people who require a lightweight double stroller for their children.
Baby Jogger City Elite
If you're looking for a high-quality double stroller that is lightweight, the Baby Jogger City Elite is an excellent option. The jogger is modern and luxurious and comfort on any terrain. This stroller has two comfortable reclining chairs, adjustable calf supports, a UV 50+ canopy, and a huge storage basket. It has an in-seat one-step fold and adjustable handlebar. It can fit through standard doors and comes with an emergency parking brake that can be operated by hand. It also works with car seat adapters, which makes it easy to turn this stroller into an entire travel system.
The City Elite isn’t cheap, however it has a good resale price and is built to last through many adventures with your kids. This is an excellent choice for parents who would like to be outdoors with their children or take on long runs without the need to hire a babysitter.
The new City Mini GT2 double stroller is a similar model to the original version, but it is made of soft and more textured material. It has an ergonomic handlebar that is better and is easier to move. The canopy extends further, providing real shade as well as a peekaboo. It folds with just one hand. This is a great feature if you're a busy parent who needs to quickly adjust your stroller while on the go.
Graco SnugRide SnugLock
The Graco SnugRide SnugLock is a rear facing only infant car seat that includes a base. It comes with an exclusive SnugLock arm that is basically a giant clamp that holds the seatbelt in place. It can be closed easily with only one hand and requires only a little force to close. It is particularly suitable for grandparents or parents with disabilities or arthritis. It's also a great option for those who don't wish to use LATCH and prefer seatbelt installation.
This model comes with a broad selection of user-friendly features including a non-rethread harness and a silent canopy. It can also be transformed into a highchair, and comes with a single-handed handle adjustment. The SnugRide SnugLock DLX is small at 17 inches, which makes it a good option for three-wheeled vehicles. It also has a load leg that limits rotation and absorbs the force of a crash.
The FAA has granted it approval for both the domestic and international travel. It can be fitted without the base by using standard belt routing or European routing (the seatbelt has to be routed through the lap area and not the shoulder section). It is also possible to install the carrier inside the seat of your vehicle using the lower anchors or lockoff.
