Summary
Wirecutter's top tandem pick for parents who want a no-wider-than-a-single-stroller double without spending $1,000+. Easy to push and fold, making it one of the most practical budget doubles tested.

Our take
The BravoFor2 punches well above its price — Wirecutter tested it against the field and it came out on top for ease of use, which matters more than specs when you're wrangling two kids.
For parents who walk a lot or need to lift the stroller frequently, the Zoe Twin V2 is the clear winner — it's shockingly light for a double and narrow enough to actually fit where you need to go.
