A Small Double Buggy That's Easy to Push One-Handed and Carry Up and Down Stairs
If you're looking for a lightweight double stroller that's easy to push with one hand, and then take up and down steps This is the perfect model.
It has two fixed seats and can be configured with up to 30 seating options (including triple!). Both seats have UPF 50+ canopies with windows that can be seen from a distance.
Size
The Joovy Kooper X2 double buggy newborn stroller is a side-by side double stroller. It can be used by two children who weigh up to 50lbs. The seats are more spacious than similar strollers that are lightweight and the canopies feature large SPF 50 sunshades that have peekaboo windows. Other important features include cup holders for one parent and an enormous, self-standing basket that can hold up 25 lbs; swing-away bars for kids to get into and out of their seats; and the front wheels that swivel lock to allow for better maneuverability on rough terrain. This is a great choice for suburban and urban families. It also comes with a newborn-friendly a double set that includes a wedgie for a lie-flat position.
Weight
The weight of a double buggy is one the main factors that determine how easy it is to push. A lighter buggy is easier to lift and transport, but may not have enough suspension to withstand bumps and uneven terrain.
Be sure to check the specifications of each model before you purchase. Certain double buggies have an upper limit on the weight of the seats, while others have a frame limit. Some also fold with seats removed, making them even smaller and lighter and compact, which is a great option if storage space is at a premium.
The tri-fold doubles are typically the lightest models as only one hand is required to lift the lower and back sections. They're also a bit smaller than side-byside buggies, making them ideal to fit through doorways. The iCandy Geo 3 tri-fold double Single pushchair is among the lightest on the market. It is able to comfortably accommodate twins or a toddler and baby.
Tandem buggies start out as a single pushchair but come with adapters to add a second seat, carrycot or car seat which makes them a great option for growing families. Some, such as the iCandy Orange offer over 30 different seating configurations, so they can grow along with your family, as high as a 3rd child. They tend to weigh more than tri-fold doubles. However, they're usually easier to move up and down kerbs thanks to the weight being evenly distributed.
Folding
The best twin stroller double buggies designed for small children fold in a matter of seconds. Our Lab experts appreciate this feature as it helps them squeeze the buggies into the back of their car and free up storage space when they are not in use. For instance, the Joovy Kooper X2 has straps on each seat that are able to be pulled up and the whole thing folds down -- it's a tri-fold that even our most experienced testers can do with one hand.
The lightweight twin buggy Delta Children LX Side by Side is another great option for a compact double buggie. Its lightweight weight is a plus but so are its key features including large pop-out canopy with SPF 50 and peekaboo windows swing-away bars that help children to climb into and out of the seats and reclined seating and leg rests for younger kids.
Manoeuvrability
One of the most important things to consider when choosing a compact double buggy is its manoeuvrability, particularly how easy it is to get around with two children on board. Some pushchairs, for instance the iCandy Orange with its 'cinema seating' (where the back seat is elevated) are better than other models.
The narrow tandem buggies are good at this and so can side-by-side designs. These buggies can be a bit longer and could be difficult to navigate through doorways.
The UPPAbaby Vista 2 pushchair is a great example, as it's a compact model that can accommodate two seats in addition to more importantly, an auxiliary board that can accommodate a third kid.
Other smaller, three wheeled models, such as the phil&teds Dot are also extremely agile. This is particularly evident with its innovative "dot kit" that transforms it into an inline buggie. It has different seating configurations for kids of different ages. It also allows the front seat to rotate to face parents for ultimate face-to-face bonding. It has an ample storage basket and is easy to fold. It is an excellent choice for families with growing children!
