1. Baby Jogger City Tour Double
The City Tour 2 Double stroller is the smallest of the Baby Jogger range. It's made for travel and easily fits through most doors with its narrow design. It's also one of the most lightweight double buggies on the market weighing just 14lbs when folded. This makes it ideal for traveling with a baby and toddler since you won't exceed airline luggage allowances. It also folds up to the size of a bag for travel so you can tuck it away in the back of your car when not in use.
The one-handed Z-shape fold is a breeze and it's extremely compact once you get the hang of it and takes only a few seconds to unfold. Our tester found the auto lock a little confusing, and because the handlebar does not lock into the position you push it into, it hit her leg when she tried to use it. She also felt that the handlebar was a little too short and especially with the large changing bag hanging from it.
The double stroller isn't as light as other travel buggies. It comes with a wide variety of features, and is one the most versatile double strollers available on the market. It is compatible with two carrycots (available separately) and has several recline positions and comes with an UV 50+ canopy. You can add an additional bassinet to one or both seats to make this an all-in-one travel system.
The four tires made of rubber are great for pavements and urban terrain. However, they are not made for off-roading. They had a hard time with long grass and gravel and there wasn't enough clearance between the wheel bracket and wheel, so mud stuck easily. Our tester loved this vehicle and was able to climb beautiful dirt hills.
iCandy Orange
The iCandy Orange double buggy is the most stylish, versatile and quality. It is an essential item for parents who want a stylish, high-quality double buggy that lasts. The Orange has a beautiful, lightweight, streamlined chassis with a huge basket that can easily fit two car seats.

They're also adjustable so they can be set to suit the needs of siblings. iCandy has included the first-ever 'cinema seating' design that allows parents to maintain eye contact between both children. They can also be repositioned to face either parent or to face the world.
It's a heavier buggie in tandem, but it's easy to drive and use particularly on smooth roads. It is stable in double and single mode, and also on sloped ground. It's not as easy to drive on public transport, however, because it requires more than one hand on the handlebar. It's also a little bulky and won't fit into the standard car boot for families with the seat on, however this can be overcome with cautious planning. iCandy include the footmuff, changing bag and car seat adapters included in the price so this is an excellent value bundle for new parents.

The 360-degree swivel wheel is able to be locked to help you maneuver around town. The one-pedal, easy lock brake is also easy to use.
Our test participants found that the Nipper Double was incredibly easy to maneuver, even taking off on uneven ground or turning fast in the middle of a busy street. They were also awed by the fact that both seats recline independently, which means they can be adjusted to suit the individual's needs. This is ideal for napping.
The hoods were also simple to adjust for sun or wind protection. They didn't provide as much coverage as the Baby Jogger City Mini Hoods. It might be worth having an extra rain cover in case.
Overall, our test participants were impressed with the Nipper double's capacity to let them take their twin daughters Sydney and Lyla to all kinds of adventures. From exploring the forest for wildlife or rushing to a park to play with their friends, they loved it. The testers were also impressed by how spacious and comfortable the two seats are. There is plenty of room to stretch out for growing toddlers. Our testers did note, however, that the lack of a parent-facing seating and the inability of using car seats with the buggy was a disadvantage and they would like to have seen more storage space to store shopping items and other accessories.
