1. Baby Jogger City Tour 2 Double

The City Tour 2 Double is the smallest double stroller within the Baby Jogger range. It was designed specifically for travel, and can fit through doors that are standard with its ultra-narrow shape.

Our test subject found the auto-lock a bit difficult to understand, and also because the handlebar doesn't lock into place when you push it and it landed on her leg when she was using it. She also felt the handlebar was a little shorter than she would like particularly with a large changing bag hanging from it.

Unlike other lightweight travel buggies it doesn't sacrifice features. It's one of the most feature-packed double strollers that are available. It's compatible with two carry cots (available separately), has multiple recline positions and a UV 50+ canopy. You can even add a bassinet to one or both seats and transform it into a travel set-up.

The four rubber composite wheels are ideal for pavements as well as urban terrain however, they're not designed for off-roading. They slid on long grass and gravel, and there isn't much space between the bracket and the wheel, so mud got stuck easily. Our tester loved this vehicle, and it was able to climb pretty muddy hills.

The hoods were also simple to adjust for wind or sun protection. They didn't provide the same amount of coverage as the Baby Jogger City Mini Hoods. It's worth carrying an extra rain cover in case.
