Mountain Buggy Urban Double

Excepting some minor quibbles, most experts and owners have high praise for the all-terrain Mountain Buggy Urban Double. Reviewers acknowledge that this side-by-side double stroller is expensive and heavy at 35 pounds, but they also say that it's easy to steer and maneuver. Most parents echo this opinion, lauding the Mountain Buggy Urban Double stroller for its maneuverability and comfort. However, parents note that it is bulky. Another all-terrain option is the versatile phil&teds Sport Buggy Double (*Est. $450 plus $90 doubles kit), which adds an optional second seat behind and partly below the main seat; the three-wheeled Sport Double gets good reviews. The Maclaren Twin Techno (*Est. $380) is the top-rated side-by side stroller, but it is not designed for rough terrain.

We found the best review of the Mountain Buggy Urban Double at Baby-Gaga.com, which examines this side-by-side stroller with its usual attention to detail. Canadian Family and Cookie magazines both use parent testers in their latest double-stroller roundups, both of which include the Urban Double as top picks. This stroller is also reviewed by the experts and parents at the retail site JoggingStroller.com, and it receives a fair amount of comments from owners posting to BabyBargains.com (the online companion to the popular book of the same name).
