The Best Double Buggy Strollers

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 easily fits through most normal doors thanks to its slim design. It's also one of the most lightweight Double Pushchair For Newborn And Toddler buggies on the market weighing just 14lb when folded. It's ideal for travel with a toddler and a newborn as you won’t exceed airline luggage allowances. It can also be folded up into the size of an incredibly small travel bag so you can store it in the back of your car.

It's easy to fold the Z-shape by using one hand. Once you're used to it, it is compact and only takes minutes. However our tester found the auto lock to be a bit confusing. Also, since the handlebar doesn't lock into position when you press it, it hit her legs when she used 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.

The double stroller isn't as lightweight as other travel buggies. It has a full range of features, and is among the most versatile double strollers available on the market. It's compatible with two carry cots (available separately), has multiple recline positions and an UV 50+ canopy. You can add a bassinet on either or both seats to create an all-in-one 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 gravel and long grass and there was not enough clearance between the wheel bracket and the wheel which meant that mud could get stuck easily. Our testers loved this buggy, and it was able to climb some beautiful hillocks that were muddy.

Our testers discovered that the Nipper Double is incredibly easy to navigate, even on bumpy terrain or when turning in a busy road. The possibility that the seats could be reclined independently was also hugely appreciated.

The hoods were also easy to adjust for wind or sun protection. Our testers did find however that they did not provide the same amount of coverage as something like the Baby Jogger City Mini hoods which is why it's recommended to bring a rain jacket to be prepared in the event of.

Overall, our test participants loved the way the Nipper Double allowed them to take their twin girls Sydney and Lyla to all sorts of adventures, from spotting wildlife in the woods, to running to the park to play with their friends. The testers were also impressed by how comfortable and spacious the two seats are. There is plenty of room for growing toddlers. The lack of parent facing seating and the inability of using a car seat on this buggy were both noted as a disadvantage by our testers. They would have wanted a bigger storage area for shopping and other gear.
