A Small Double Buggy That's Easy to Push One-Handed and Carry Up and Down Stairs
This is the double stroller that you need if you want a lightweight stroller that is easy to push with one hand. It's also simple to transport up and down the stairs.
It has two fixed seats, and up to 30 different seating configurations are possible (including a triangular one!). Both seats have UPF 50+ canopies with peekaboo windows.
Size
The Joovy Kooper X2 double stroller is a side-by side double stroller. It can accommodate two children up to 50lbs. Its seats are larger sized than those of other double strollers that are lightweight, and the canopies have nice-sized SPF 50 sunshades with windows that are peekaboo. Other features that are important include a self-standing basket that has a a capacity of 25 lbs cup holders for one parent, and bars that swing away to help children to get into and out of their seats. This is a great option for urban and suburban families. It is also newborn-ready with a double buggy set that includes a wedgie to help you sleep in a lying-flat position.
Weight
The weight of a double jogging stroller buggies will determine the ability to push. Typically, a light buggy will be easier to lift and carry, but may not have enough suspension to deal with bumps and uneven terrain.
Be sure to check the specifications of each model before buying. Certain double buggies have an upper limit on the weight of the seats, while others have an overall frame limit. Some double buggies are able to be folded with seats removed, which makes them lighter and more compact. This is useful when you're limited on storage space.
The tri-fold doubles are typically the lightest of models since only one hand is needed to lift the front and back sections. They are also narrower than buggies with side-by-side sides and can be accessed through the majority of doors. The iCandy Geo 3 tri-fold double is one of most lightweight on the market. It can comfortably fit twins or a toddler and baby.
Tandem buggies are perfect for families with growing children because they start as a single stroller and can be modified to include a second seat or car seat, or carrycot. Some, such as the iCandy Orange offer over 30 different seating configurations, meaning they can expand with your family, up to a 3rd child. They are heavier than tri-folds however, because the weight is more evenly distributed, they are much easier to maneuver.
Folding
The best double buggies designed for small children fold up in seconds. This feature is adored by our Lab experts as they can put the buggies in the back of their vehicles and save space when they're not in use. For example the Joovy Kooper X2 has straps on each seat that pull up, and the entire thing folds down. it's a trifold, which even our most experienced testers can accomplish with just one hand.
The light Delta Children LX side by side is another excellent option for double buggie. Its light weight is a plus but is the features it offers big pop-out canopy that include SPF 50 protection and a windows that peek out at you as well as swing-away bars to assist children to get into and out of seats; and reclining chairs and leg rests designed for toddlers.
Manoeuvrability
One of the most important aspects to think about when selecting a compact double running buggy buggy is its manoeuvrability especially how it is simple to move around with both children on board. Certain pushchairs are better than others and include the iCandy's "cinema chair" (where the back is elevated).
This is the reason why narrow tandem buggies and side-by-side designs can come in useful. However, they are a bit longer overall and can be tricky to navigate through doors.
The UPPAbaby Vista 2 twin pushchair is a great example, as it's a comparatively small model that has two additional seats, and more importantly, the pillion board, which can accommodate a third child.
Other smaller, three wheeled models, such as the phil&teds Dot are also incredibly agile. This is particularly evident with its innovative "dot kit" that transforms it into an inline buggie. It has different seating configurations that are suitable for children with different ages. It even allows the front seat to be rotated to face parents, allowing for the ultimate face-to-face bonding. It also has a great storage basket and is easy to fold. This is a great choice for growing families.
Comfort
With narrow tandem strollers, or flexible side-by-side buggies, parents can keep an eye on both kids at the grocery store, park or any other place. These lightweight doubles are able to accommodate two children with a maximum weight of 50 pounds each. They also come with pop-out canopy that can be extended enough to offer real shade. The doubles also feature cups for both parents and a a reversible cupholder on the back of the seat. They also come with an enormous underseat storage basket.
