A Small Double Buggy That's Easy to Push One-Handed and Carry Up and Down Stairs

This is the double stroller for you in case you're looking for a lightweight, easy-to-push one-handed stroller. It's also simple to carry up and down the stairs.

It comes with two fixed seats, and up to 30 different seating configurations are possible (including an angular one!). Both seats come with UPF 50+ canopy as well as windows that peek out.

Size

The Joovy Kooper X2 double stroller is a side by side double stroller. It can hold two children who weigh up to 50 pounds. The seats are bigger than the other double strollers with lightweights and the canopies feature large SPF 50 sunshades that have peekaboo windows. Other features that are important include cup holders with one parent and an enormous, self-standing basket that can hold up 25 pounds; swing-away bars for kids to get into and out of their seats and the wheels can be locked with swivels for better manoeuvrability on tough terrain. It is a great option for urban and suburban families. It also comes with the double kit which includes a newborn wedgie that allows for an optimum lie-flat position.

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 however, it may not have the suspension to withstand bumps and uneven terrain.

Make sure to read the specifications of each model before purchasing. Some double buggies have the capacity to hold a maximum weight of a person while others have a frame limit. Some models fold with the seats removed, making them smaller and lighter this can be beneficial if storage space is at a premium.

Tri-fold doubles are typically the lightest models, as they only require one hand to lift the top and bottom sections. They're also a bit smaller than side-byside buggies, which makes them ideal for fitting through doors. The iCandy Geo 3 tri-fold double is among the lightest on the market. It can comfortably fit twins, or a toddler and baby.

Tandem buggies start out as a single to double buggy pushchair but come with adapters to accommodate a carrycot, a second seat or car seat they are an ideal choice for growing families. Some, like the iCandy Orange offer over 30 different seating configurations, so they can expand with your family with a third child. They tend to be heavier than tri-fold doubles, however they're generally easier to move between kerbs due to the weight being evenly distributed.

Folding

The most effective double stroller With 5-point harness buggies for young children can fold up in just a few minutes. This feature is well-loved by our Lab experts since they can fit the buggies inside the back of their cars and save space when they're not in use. The Joovy Kooper X2 for example has straps that can be pulled up on each seat and then the whole thing folds down. Even our most experienced testers were able to fold the tri-fold with only one hand.

The light Delta Children LX Side by Side is another great option for a compact double buggie. Its lightweight weight is an advantage however, it also has some great features including large pop-out canopy with SPF 50 and peekaboo windows; swing-away bars that help children climb in and out of the seats; and reclined seating and leg rests designed for younger kids.

Manoeuvrability

One of the most important aspects to think about when selecting the right size double buggy is its maneuverability and how it is easy to move around with two children aboard. Certain pushchairs are more efficient than others in this regard and include the iCandy's 'cinema seat' (where the back is elevated).

This is the reason why narrow tandem buggies and side-by-side designs come in handy. Buggies with this type of design can be a bit larger and could be difficult to navigate through doors.

The UPPAbaby Vista 2 is an excellent example, as it's a relatively narrow twin pushchair from birth that still allows two seats to be added, and an important feature - the 'piggyback' board which can be used to carry the third child.

Other smaller, three-wheeled models like the phil&teds dot are also incredibly agile, especially with its clever 'dot kit that transforms it into an inline buggie. It offers two seating arrangements for children of different age groups and the front seat can be rotated to face the parents to create more intimate bonding. It has an ample storage basket and is easy to fold. It is an excellent choice for growing families!

Comfort

With compact tandem strollers or flexible side-by-side buggies, parents can keep an eye on both kids while at the park, at the grocery store or wherever else. These lightweight doubles are able to hold two children, up to 50 lbs each. They also have a pop-out canopy which can be extended enough to give shade. The doubles come with cups for both parents and a a reversible cupholder on the seatback. They also include an ample underseat storage basket.

Add the phil&teds Double Kit to your dot buggy if you are beginning with a growing family. It will transform it into a double stroller that is ideal for toddlers and newborns alike. The clever 3-wheel design makes for simple kerb popping and excellent mobility, while the sling seat is an excellent opportunity for infants to bond with their parents.
