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

This is the double stroller that you need in case you're looking for a lightweight stroller that is easy to push with one hand. It's also easy to transport up and down the stairs.

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

Size

The Joovy Kooper X2 is a side-by-side double stroller which can hold two children at up to 50lbs each. The seats are bigger than similar strollers that are lightweight and the canopy has large SPF 50 sunshades with peekaboo windows. Other important features include cup holders with one parent and an enormous, self-standing basket that can accommodate up to 25 pounds; swing-away bars for kids to get in and out of their seats; and swivel lock front wheels to allow for better maneuverability on rough terrain. It's a great choice for urban and suburban families. It is also newborn-ready with the double set which includes an infant wedgie that can be used to lie flat in a position.

Weight

The weight of double buggie will determine the ease of pushing. A light buggy is easier to lift and carry, but may not have enough suspension to handle bumps and uneven terrain.

Most double buggies have an upper limit on the weight of each seat and some have overall frame maximums which is why it's essential to know the specifics of each model before you purchase. Some also fold down with seats removed to make them even smaller and lighter this can be beneficial in cases where storage space is a premium.

Tri-fold doubles are generally the lightest models, as they require only one hand to lift the top and lower sections. They are also a bit smaller than buggies with side-by-side sides and are able to fit through most doorways. The iCandy Geo 3 is one of the lightest trifold doubles on the market, and can comfortably hold twins or a baby and toddler.

Tandem buggies are perfect for growing families because they begin as a single stroller, but can be adapted to include a second child or car seat, or carrycot. Some, such as the iCandy Orange offer over 30 different seating configurations, so they can expand with your family with a third child. These doubles are heavier than tri-folds however, since the weight is evenly dispersed, they are more comfortable to maneuver.

Folding

The best double buggies designed for small children fold up in seconds. Our Lab experts appreciate this feature as it helps them squeeze the buggies in the back of their cars and also save 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 that even our most senior testers could accomplish with just one hand.

The light Delta Children LX side by side is another great choice for double buggies. Its lightness is a plus but also the features it comes with large pop-out canopy which include SPF 50 protection and a the peek-a-boo window and swing-away bars that help children Bambisol twin pushchair: birth to ultra-Compact design get into and out of their seats; and reclined chairs and leg rests for toddlers.

Manoeuvrability

One of the most important factors to take into consideration when selecting a compact double buggy is its maneuverability especially how it is simple to move around with two children on board. Some pushchairs, such as the iCandy Orange with its 'cinema seating' (where the back seat is elevated) are better than others.

This is where narrow tandem buggies and side-by-side designs can be useful. However, they are more substantial overall and so may be tricky to maneuver through doorways.

The UPPAbaby Vista 2 pushchair is an excellent example, since it's a narrow model that allows for two seats in addition to the most important thing is the pillion board, which can accommodate a third kid.

Other smaller, three-wheeled models such as the phil&teds Dot are also incredibly agile, especially thanks to its clever 'dot kit' that turns it into an inline buggie. It comes with two seating options for children of different age groups and the front seat can be turned to face the parents to provide an intimate bonding experience. It comes with a large storage basket and is easy to fold. This is a great choice for families with growing children.

Comfort

With compact tandem strollers or flexible side-by-side buggies parents can watch both kids while at the park, grocery store or anywhere else. These lightweight doubles can hold two children as much as 50 lbs per seat and come with large pop-out canopy that extends far enough to offer real shade with window windows that can be seen from a distance and padded legs rests for little ones to kick back and relax. The doubles also feature a single parent cupholder and an reversible cupholder that is located on the seatback. They also have an ample underseat storage basket.
