1. Baby Jogger City Tour 2 Double
The City Tour 2 Double is the smallest
double stroller within the Baby Jogger range. It's designed to travel and easily fits through normal doors thanks to its slim design, it's also one of the lightest double buggies on the market weighing just 14lbs when folded. This makes it ideal for flying with a toddler and newborn as you won't be exceeding the luggage allowances of airlines. It also folds to the size of a backpack and can be tucked away in the back of your car when not being used.
The one-handed, Z-shape folding is a breeze and it's extremely compact once you've mastered it. It can take a couple of only a few seconds to unfold. Our test subject found the auto-lock a little confusing, and because the handlebar doesn't lock into place when you push it, it hit her leg when she tried to use it. She also believed that the handlebar was on the shorter side. This is particularly true when a large change bag is hanging from it.
In contrast to other travel buggies that are lightweight, this doesn't skimp on features and is one of the most comprehensive double strollers available. It's compatible with two carry cots (available separately) It also offers multiple recline positions, and an UV 50+ canopy. You can even add an additional bassinet to one or both seats and transform this into a travel system.
The four rubber composite wheels are ideal for pavements and urban terrain, but they're not built for off-roading - they struggled on gravel and long grass, and there isn't much clearance between the bracket and the wheel, so mud was able to get stuck easily. But, our tester still loved using this buggy and it did get up to some beautiful dirt hills.
2. iCandy Orange
The iCandy Orange is a premium double buggy that is the ultimate in style and versatility. It is an essential item for parents who demand the latest in design, quality and style that lasts.

The seats are also adjustable and can be set to meet the needs of siblings. iCandy have included the first-ever 'cinema' seating concept that allows parents to keep eye contact with their children. They can also be repositioned to face either the parent or the towards the world.
It's a heavier tandem buggy however it's very easy to use and steer, especially on smooth roads. It feels stable in both single and double mode and even on sloping terrain. It's not as simple to drive on public transport, however, because it requires more than one hand to grip the handlebar. It's also heavy and can't be stuffed into a standard car boot without the seat attached, but this can be overcome with careful planning. iCandy include a footmuff, changing bag and car seat adapters included in the price so this is an excellent value package for new parents.
