Weight
The lighter the double buggy the lighter it is, the easier it is to lift and maneuver. The Joie Evalite Duo is a great option if you need to be cognizant of weight. It's the lightest we've seen in our lab tests, but it still has plenty of features, such as nice-sized pop-out canopies with SPF 50 and peekaboo windows as well as a quick-release fold which folds flat in just a few minutes; four-wheel suspension to handle rough terrain and an adjustable front wheel that makes getting around narrow aisles in supermarkets and shops effortless. It's also affordable at just over a thousand dollars. It can also carry twins or a baby and toddler with the purchase of an additional'sidepack'.
