A Lightweight Double Buggy For Families With Twins Or Closer Together

If you have twins or two children similar in age, a double buggy can be a game-changer. They can provide more seating options and are usually bigger than single strollers.

However, they don't have to be bulky or heavy. Some are small and fold flat, making them easy to move in tight spaces, or up and down stairs.

Leclerc Influencer

With a weight of just 6.6 kg the stroller is light and compact, with a clever auto-fold mechanism that takes only seconds to operate. It can be used from birth with the optional bassinet (sold separately) and is approved by the cabin to be used in overhead bins during flights - although it's always best to check with your airline as regulations are different. Jane the mother of our two testers, said the Influencer Air was easy to push and offered adequate stability. She also loves that the sun canopy can be adjusted to give adequate coverage for taller children, and that it comes with a travel-cup holder. You can buy extra accessories such as a transparent cover for rain and an Teddy Footmuff, which combines an insulated teddy-sherpa liner with a water-resistant outer fabric in colder conditions.

Leclerc's Baby Influencer XL is a step ahead of its peers thanks to its stunning design, vibrant colours and well-constructed frame and fabric materials. Its one-touch, super-fast folding mechanism lets it fold and unfurl in just 1.5 seconds. This makes it perfect for daily use and longer trips. It's also supplied with bags for travel to make it easier when you're packing it in your car or on the train, or in the overhead compartment of your plane when you jet off on holiday.

iCandy Orange

The iCandy Orange is a great choice for parents who are style-conscious and have money to spend but need a light stroller that has lots of fun features. The iCandy orange comes with an integrated ride-on board and an enormous basket. It can also be arranged as a tandem by using risers that can be added.

It's easy to push, with a great turning circle and soft suspension that bounces gently over bumps. It is also easy to maneuver, even when children are in the seat over the front wheels. In double mode, it's slightly more difficult to maneuver large curbs, as the weight shifts from front to back. However, this is true for most twin buggies.

The back wheels have been made smaller in this update to 2021, making it easier to maneuver in tight spaces like the entrances to shops and doors, as well as on public transportation. However, they still feel sturdy and robust with tyre treads which performed well on muddy and grassy road. It's also a breeze to fold by releasing clips on the back wheels and pulling two levers on the handle opens it open in a matter of seconds. When folded, it can stand on its own. There's also a mesh sunscreen for the seat and carrycot which can be put onto in mere seconds.

Joie Evalite Duo

The Joie Evalite Duo is a cheerful combination engineered and designed to make traveling with two as easy as it can be. It weighs just 10kg making it one of the lightest twin buggy strollers on the market. It's extremely easy to drive, ride, carry and load. The pushchair can be folded into a flat position with one hand, and it is able to stand on its own. It's also compatible with Joie's Gemm and iSnug infant seats (car seats sold separately) to create a complete travel set-up.

A drawback is that the seat in the rear doesn't fully recline however, it's one minor flaw in an otherwise great double strollers buggy. There is no way to add a board to the buggy, but this is not uncommon for side-by-side designs.

Overall overall, the Evalite is a lovely buggy that with a few tweaks could become a perfect model. It's easy to drive and the seats are comfortable for children of all different ages. The handle is padded to allow it to be more comfortable to hold, and the wheels are suspended to guarantee an enjoyable ride. It is also very robust and comes with lots of storage space. It's also a stylish pushchair with a range of appealing colour options.

However, the leg support isn't adjustable, and might cause dangling legs.

Baby Jogger City Select

It comes with a fantastic canopy that offers ample coverage that can be easily adjusted to different head heights. The handlebar is taller than the competition, so it may not be suitable for parents with shorter heights however, it's an excellent choice for those who have longer strides. The front wheels are able to lock or swivel, which is great for steering on rough terrain.

The only downside to this stroller is that it can't fold like the other models in our guide. The second seat has to be removed in order to fold the stroller, which can be a challenge if you intend to keep it in a vehicle or closet. It does, however, have one of the largest storage bins we've seen in our ranking, so it could still be a suitable choice for people who require a lightweight double stroller for their children.

Graco SnugRide SnugLock

The Graco SnugRide SnugLock is a rear facing only infant car seat that comes with a base. It features a SnugLock arm, which functions as a huge clamp to hold the seat belt. The arm requires only a little force to close and can easily close with just one hand. It is particularly suitable for parents and grandparents who suffer from arthritis or weak physical strength.

This model has a range of options, including a silent canopy and a harness that is not rethread. It can also be transformed to a highchair and features a one-handed handle adjustment. The SnugRide SnugLock DLX has narrow width of 17 inches, which makes it an ideal option for vehicles with three rows. It also has a load-leg which minimizes rotation while absorbing crash forces.

The FAA has approved it for both domestic and foreign travel. It can be installed without the base using the standard belt routing or European routing (the seatbelt has to be routed through the lap portion and not the shoulder section). You can also put it in the vehicle seat using locksoffs and lower anchors.
