Which double buggy would you recommend?

Hi everyone!

We're making plans to research, test and review a new round of double buggies for 2020, so we'd love to hear which ones you'd recommend.

If you've used (and loved!) a particular product then please do tell us about it. This will help us to create a shortlist of double buggies to put to the test over the next few months so that we can recommend the best of the best to other parents.

Thank you!

Also loved the bugaboo donkey 💕

Mountain buggy duet! Brilliant brilliant bit of kit. My best purchase in fact

Another vote for Bugaboo Donkey. Very handy for small siblings or twins and looks really nice too. Too bad about the price tag but most pushchairs nowadays are expensive. Another one I've had was the Silver Cross Wave. Very stylish and lovely to handle. Loved the diaper rucksack that you could buy separately.

We love the out n about nipper double

RandomWok · 27/02/2020 16:56

Another out and about nipper fan!

Bugaboo donkey is fantastic for children of 2 different ages.

Mountain buggy duet. The Roll Royce of pushchairs, fits through doorways, beautiful and smooth to push.

Baby jogger citi mini double, hands down x

Phil and teds - we have the dot but I imagine others equally good. Because the kids don't sit side by side it is narrow enough for cities which a lot of the others aren't.

Bugaboo donkey. I've had mine a year and honestly can't fault it. It's so versatile for seat arrangements and also handles all terrains beautifully, even the beach.

Love, love, LOVE my Mountain Buggy Duet v2.

It is narrow enough to fit through any door I've tried to pass (it's the same width as a wheelchair), and it also incredibly light and nimble - very easy to get up and down curbs smoothly as well as turning on a dime. It was also far kinder on the wallet.

The only downside is that it doesn't fold down very small, but as a double buggy you're never going to have a space-saver! Having said that, it does fit in the boot of my '61 Fiesta with room for the change bag and a few other bits so isn't an impossible size to live with.

100% would recommend to anyone needing a double buggy.

Mountain Buggy duet - hands down the best double.

Beautiful to push, a true off roader, never had a surface it couldn’t cope with or a door it couldn’t fit thru. Large basket, hoods have great coverage, seats are large - my average-sized 5 year old still fits in it. I use it instead of my single, even when it don’t need the extra seat

This I'd still consider having another child to use it again
I could fit weeks of shopping in it
took it on tube and buses
fitted in my boot
robust and well made

I love it

deendon · 27/02/2020 22:08

to be clear yes I'd have 2 just to use it again

deendon · 27/02/2020 22:11

I've had MB and icandy peach and maclaren twin techno

360 was the best by miles and miles

there's a role for the twin techno re plane travel but the 360 made very light work of pushing heavy kids

icandy just a looker and trend factor
MB for those who've not had a 360

I felt the same about my out n about double, so I bought a single too for youngest child and got rid of my previous single.

I passed my double on to a friend who is equally as in love with it.

nervousfirsttimer1985 · 27/02/2020 22:36

Nipper Out and Abour 360 v4 is fantastic. Today I bumped it up some flat steps and over grass to get to the park. I alao think it is nearly as light as my single pram.

JanewaysBun · 28/02/2020 00:02

Icandy peach double!
I had the MB duet and did my back in lifting it in and out of the car. Also my toddler used to poke the baby so good they were separated haha

The MB nano looks good but just a liiiiitle bit too wide for my teeny lift

jjejed · 28/02/2020 03:35

I use the Out n About Nipper which is lovely to push but I really wish it had a parent facing option after the carrycot. I've been eager to try the iCandy Peach All Terrain but I'm not convinced it would be as good off road as the Nipper.

If you're looking for testers, I'm happy to volunteer! Have two babies under two

Out and about nipper , loved mine one

OutnAbout on quality of function and price!

slaveto6 · 28/02/2020 09:06

Bugaboo donkey 100% I've had 6 kids and it was my favourite by far easy to push easy to keep clean was comfortable for the kids and fitted through nearly every door I needed to go through and I looked after it so was able to sell it for a good amount too

Teacup34 · 28/02/2020 10:39

Another vote for Joie aire. Brilliant if your on a budget I loved mine didn't have a car at the time the amount of shopping I could get in it was incredible!!
