1. Baby Jogger City Tour 2 Double

The one-handed, Z-shape folding is a breeze and it's extremely compact once you master it. It takes a few only a few seconds to unfold. Our tester found the auto-lock a little difficult to understand, and also because the handlebar does not lock into the position you push it into and it landed on her leg when she was using it. She also thought the handlebar was on the shorter side. This is especially true when a large bag for changing is hanging from it.
As opposed to other light travel buggies that aren't loaded with features. It's one of the most full-featured double strollers on the market. It's compatible with two carrycots (available separately) It also has multiple recline positions, and a UV 50+ canopy.

The four rubber composite tires are ideal for pavements and urban terrain. However, they were not designed for off-roading. They had a hard time with long grass and gravel and there was not enough clearance between the wheel bracket and the wheel and mud sank easily. Our testers loved this buggy, and it was able to climb beautiful muddy hills.
