This is an ideal double pushchair if you are looking for a model that is affordable and offers great value. It can be used either as a tandem or a side-by-side pram. It is designed to avoid sibling rivalries by permitting children to face one another or away from eachother.

Cost
A quality double pushchair can cost hundreds of pounds. However, if you choose one that is built to last, it should be worth the cost.

It is essential to think about the dimensions and foldability of a double pushchair prior to purchasing one. Many models fold down to a compact size, making it easier to store. However, some models are quite bulky and will require more storage space. Consider the weight of the pushchair as well as its suspension, as they can affect the performance of uneven surfaces or kerbs.
Side-byside buggies are generally larger than single buggys, so they are more difficult to fit into narrow hallways and doors. They can make it easier to climb up and down the kerbs.
Some models are suitable for twins because they can be used in conjunction with two car seats, a baby carrier and even a stroller. Other models, like the Uppababy Vista V2 Double, can be used with both infant car seats and toddler seats. They also come with a bassinet which is ideal for babies.

Design
There are a variety of things to take into consideration when buying a double pushchair at an affordable price, such as the size, style, and features. The most important factor to consider is whether the product is suited to your family's needs. There are two types of double products: side-by-side (one seat is directly behind the other) and inline. Each type has its pros and cons.
Side-by-side models have two fixed seats and are ideal to twins or siblings of similar age, although they can be used by one child. They are larger than single-seat buggies and navigate tight spaces, kerbs and doorways easier. They might also have limited storage and be difficult to push across uneven terrain.
Inline models have a seat between the two and are suitable for older toddlers or older children. They are often used with one infant car seat, and can have a larger basket than side-by-side models. Inline products are not as equipped with features as other strollers that are lightweight. For example, they do not have a cup holder or sunshade for every child.
The Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double is an inline double buggy that is full-size with a variety of seating options that can take two infant car seats or toddler seats. It can also take two seats that function as bassinets or can be converted into a triple - which makes it an ideal option for families growing. In our Lab tests the model was simple to drive and folded in a compact manner, and has a clever 'one-click' system that doesn't require removal of seats. It also has a spacious undercarriage basket, and is compatible with all the popular car seats.
The chic egg2 is a cherished favorite of parents, offering an elegant frame and a small size that is ideal for urban streets that are crowded. It can be used for a single child, a double stroller for twins, toddlers and babies of different ages, or as a triple stroller when you add UPPAbaby’s ‘PiggyBack’ board (available separately). The double-to-triple pushchair is not quite as light as others, but it has great durability and a huge shopping basket.

The innovative, one-handed folding that takes just minutes and the fact that the front seat reclines for babies were also appreciated by our test subjects.
Storage
Some double pushchairs that are cheap come with extra storage in the form of bins or boxes that fit under the seats. Others offer a large shopping basket that is placed between the seats for easier access. The Cybex Geo 3 offers a astonishing 23kg in single mode, and a huge undercarriage basket for use as a double. It also features a handy standing fold that is easy to use and our Lab experts really liked and that you can activate by using just one hand.

However, it can grow to accommodate twins, or even toddlers with the addition of its 'PiggyBack' board (available separately). It can even carry three kids if you add two cocoons. It does not have the fancy standing fold that you find in some competitors, but our lab experts were impressed by its simple opening procedure that requires only lifting the latch.
