A Small Double Buggy That's Easy to Push One-Handed and Carry Up and Down Stairs If you're looking to purchase a light double stroller that is easy to push with one hand and climb and descend steps, this is the one. It comes with two fixed seats, and up to 30 different seating configurations are possible (including the triangular design!). Both seats have UPF 50+ canopies and windows that peek out. Size The Joovy Kooper X2 double stroller is a side by side double stroller. It can accommodate two children up to 50lbs. tandem double buggy pushchairsandprams are larger than other lightweight double strollers and the canopies feature large SPF 50 sunshades with windows that peek out. Other features that are important include a self-standing bin with capacity of 25 pounds, cup holders for one parent and swing-away bars that help children to get into and out of their seats. It is a great choice for urban and suburban families. It also comes with the double kit which includes a newborn wedgie for an optimum lie-flat position. Weight The weight of double buggie will determine the ease of pushing. In general, a buggy that is light is more easy to lift and carry however, it may not have enough suspension to deal with bumps and uneven terrain. The majority of double buggies have the capacity to hold a maximum weight for each seat and some have total frame limits, so it's important to know the specifics of each model before you buy. Some double buggies can be folded with seats removed, which makes them smaller and lighter. This is a great option if you are limited on storage space. The tri-fold doubles are generally the lightest, since only one hand is required to lift the front and back sections. They are also smaller than side by side buggies and are able to fit through most doors. The iCandy Geo 3 is one of the lightest tri-fold doubles on the market, and can comfortably accommodate twins or a toddler and baby. Tandem buggies begin as a single pushchair and have adapters to add an additional seat, carrycot or car seat which makes them an ideal choice for growing families. Some, like the iCandy Orange offer over 30 different seating configurations, meaning they can expand with your family, as high as a 3rd child. They are generally heavier than tri-fold doubles, however they're often easier to maneuver up and down kerbs thanks to the weight being distributed more evenly. Folding The most compact double buggies fold easily and can be folded in a matter of seconds. Our Lab experts appreciate this feature since it helps them squeeze the buggies into the back of their vehicles and free up storage space when not in use. For example, the Joovy Kooper X2 has straps on each seat that pull up and the whole thing folds down — it's a trifold, which even our most experienced testers can do with one hand. The lightweight Delta Children LX Side by Side is a good alternative for a small double buggies. Its lightweight weight is an advantage however, its main features are: nice-sized pop-out canopies with SPF 50 and peekaboo windows, swing-away bars that aid children to climb into and out of the seats; and reclining seats and leg rests designed for younger kids. Manoeuvrability When selecting a compact double stroller, it is important to think about its maneuverability. This includes the ease for both children to be able to ride in the buggy. Some pushchairs, for instance the iCandy Orange with its 'cinema seating' (where the back seat is elevated) are more efficient at this than other models. This is where narrow tandem buggies as well as side-by-side designs can come in handy. However, they can be slightly longer overall and can be tricky to maneuver through doorways. The UPPAbaby Vista 2 is an excellent example of this, because it's a comparatively small pushchair that allows two seats to be added and an important feature – a 'piggyback' board that can carry an additional child. Other smaller, three wheeled models, such as the phil&teds Dot, are also incredibly agile. This is especially true with its clever “dot kit” which transforms it into an inline buggie. It comes with different seating configurations that are suitable for children of different ages. It also allows the front seat to rotate to face parents for ultimate face-to-face bonding. It also comes with a fantastic storage basket and is easy to fold. This is a great solution for growing families. Comfort Parents can keep both children safe at the park, in the grocery store, or any other place with narrow tandem buggies or side-byside buggies. These lightweight doubles can hold two children as much as 50 pounds each and come with large pop-out canopy, which extends enough to provide real shade with windows that peek out and padded leg rests for little ones to sit back and relax. They also come with convenient cup holders for the seatback that are reversible, as well as one cup holder for parents, plus a large underseat basket. If you're just beginning to build a growing family, you can add the phil&teds double kit to your dot buggy to turn it into an inline double perfect for newborns & toddlers alike. The innovative 3-wheel design offers superior manoeuvrability and easy kerb pop, while the sling seat is a fab newborn-friendly option that will allow for a perfect face-to-face bonding time. As your children become older, simply switch the sling to an infant car seat adapter and you're good to go. With a premium rain cover and travel bag included, you're ready for your next adventure!
