A small double buggy [redirect to Gm 6699] That's Easy to Push One-Handed and Carry Up and Down Stairs
If you're looking for a lightweight double stroller that is easy to push with one hand, and then take up and down stairs, this is the one.
It comes with two fixed seats with up to 30 different seating configurations are possible (including the triangular design!). Both seats have UPF 50+ canopy that has peekaboo windows.
Size
The Joovy Kooper X2 double stroller is a side by side double stroller. It can accommodate two children weighing up to 50 pounds. The seats are larger sized than those of other double strollers that are lightweight and the canopy comes with spacious SPF 50 sunshades, with windows that are peekaboo. Other key features include a self-standing basket with capacity of 25 pounds, cup holders for one parent and swing-away bars to help kids get in and out of their seats. It is a great choice for urban and suburban families. It is also newborn ready with the double kit which includes the newborn's wedgie to ensure the best double strollers position to lie flat.
Weight
The weight of a double buggy is one the key factors that will determine its ease to push. A lighter buggy is easier to lift and carry but might not have enough suspension to withstand bumps and uneven terrain.
Check the specifications of each model before buying. Certain double buggy for twins buggies come with a maximum seat weight while others have an overall frame limit. Some models fold down with seats removed to make them even lighter and more compact, which can be useful if storage space is at an all-time low.
The tri-fold doubles are generally the lightest of models since only one hand is needed to lift the front and back sections. They're also a bit smaller than side-byside buggies, which makes them an ideal choice to fit through doorways. The iCandy Geo 3 tri-fold double is one of lightest on the market. It can comfortably accommodate twins or a toddler baby.
Tandem buggies are ideal for families with growing children because they begin as a single to double buggy stroller, but can be adapted to accommodate a second seat or car seat, or carrycot. Some, like the iCandy Orange, offer over 30 seating configurations, meaning they can grow with your family until a third child. Doubles are heavier than tri-folds, but because the weight is evenly distributed, they are easier to move around.
Folding
The most compact double stroller compact double buggies fold up easily in just a few seconds. This feature is well-loved by our Lab experts as it allows them to fit the buggies into the back of their cars and conserve space when not being used. For instance, the Joovy Kooper X2 has straps on each seat that are able to be pulled up, and the entire thing folds down -- it's a tri-fold that even our oldest testers could accomplish with just one hand.
The light Delta Children LX Side by Side is another great option for a small double buggie. Its light weight is a plus but its main features are including large pop-out canopy with SPF 50 and peekaboo windows; swing-away bars to help youngsters to climb into and out of the seats and reclined seating and leg rests for smaller kids.
Manoeuvrability
When selecting a compact double stroller, it is important to take into account its maneuverability. This includes the ease for both children to travel in the buggy. Certain pushchairs, like the iCandy Orange with its 'cinema seating' (where the back seat is elevated) are better than other models.
Buggies with narrow tandems can be good at this, as are side-by-side designs. However, they can be slightly longer overall and can be tricky to navigate through doors.
The UPPAbaby Vista 2 pushchair is an excellent example, considering that it is a relatively narrow model that allows for two additional seats, and the most important thing is a pillion board that can accommodate a third kid.
Other smaller, three-wheeled models, like the phil&teds Dot, are also extremely agile. This is especially evident with its innovative "dot kit" that transforms it into an inline buggie. It offers two seating arrangements for children of various ages, and the front seat can be rotated so that it faces the parents to provide a more intimate bonding experience. It also comes with a storage basket and is super-easy to fold. This is a great option for growing families.
Comfort
Parents can keep both children in sight at the park, in the grocery store or anywhere else with narrow tandem buggies or side-by-side buggies. These lightweight doubles are able to hold two children, up to 50 lbs each. They also come with a pop-out canopy that can be extended far enough to offer real shade. The doubles also feature a single parent cupholder and an adjustable cupholder on the seatback. They also come with an enormous underseat storage basket.
Add the phil&teds Double Kit to your dot buggy if are just beginning to build a growing family. It can transform into a double inline stroller, which is perfect for toddlers and newborns alike. The clever 3-wheel design allows for easy kerb popping as well as superior mobility, while the sling seat is the perfect opportunity for babies to connect with their parents. When your little ones become older, simply switch the sling to an infant car seat adapter and you're set to go. With a premium rain cover and travel bag, you're ready for your next adventure!
