Size

In general, double pushchairs are wider than single models, especially when they're side-by-side buggies, like the Kolcraft Geo 3 and UPPAbaby Vista 2. This extra width lets them to take on heavier children without straining their chassis. Other features that make them stand out: large pop-out umbrellas that have SPF 50 protection and large peekaboo windows, swivel-lock front wheels to assist in navigating tight spaces such as shopping aisles and a cup holder for one parent and a clever fold mechanism that is one-handed. The 10-inch wheels are not built for rough terrain, but they are able to handle city streets and theme park rides quite well.

These side-by-side buggies are light and have surprisingly low price tags.

Weight

The heavier the double buggy the more easy it is to lift and maneuver. The Joie Evalite Duo is a good choice if you need to be mindful of weight, since it's the lightest double stroller we've seen in our lab tests, but it still has plenty of features, including nice-sized pop-out canopy with SPF 50 and peekaboo windows and a quick-release fold that stows flat within seconds; four-wheel suspension to cope with rough terrain; and a swivel front wheel that makes maneuvering tight shops and supermarket aisles easy.
