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

If you're looking for a lightweight twin stroller double stroller that you can push one-handed and climb and descend steps This is the perfect model.

It comes with two fixed seats and can be configured with up to 30 seating configurations (including three!). Both seats come with UPF 50+ canopy and peekaboo windows.

Size

The Joovy Kooper X2 is a side-by-side double stroller which can accommodate two children of up to 50 lbs each. The seats are larger than other lightweight double pushchair double strollers and the canopy has large sunshades with SPF 50 that have peekaboo windows. Other key features include a self-standing bin with 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 also comes with two kits that include a newborn wedgie that allows for the perfect lie-flat position.

Weight

The weight of a double buggy side by side buggy is among the most important factors that determine the ease to push. Typically, a light buggy is more easy to lift and carry but it might not have the suspension to deal with bumps and uneven terrain.

Make sure to read the specifications of each model before purchasing. Certain double buggies come with the capacity to hold a maximum weight of a person, while others have a frame limit. Certain double buggies can be folded with seats removed, which makes them smaller and lighter. This is helpful in cases where you have limited storage space.

The tri-fold doubles are generally the lightest models as only one hand is needed to lift the front and back sections. They are also smaller than side-by-side buggies, making them an ideal choice to fit through doorways. The iCandy Geo 3 tri-fold double is one of lighter models available. It can comfortably fit twins, or a toddler and baby.

Tandem buggies are initially a single pushchair and have adapters to accommodate a second seat, carrycot or car seat they are an ideal choice for growing families. Some models, such as the iCandy Orange, offer over 30 seating configurations, meaning they can adapt to your family until the age of a third child. They are generally heavier than tri-fold doubles. However, they're often easier to maneuver between kerbs due to the weight being evenly distributed.

Folding

The best double buggies designed for small children can fold up in just a few minutes. Our Lab experts love this feature as it helps them to fit the buggies into the back of their car and save storage space when they are not in use. For example 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 trifold that even our most senior testers could do with one hand.

The light Delta Children LX Side by Side is a good alternative for a small double buggie. Its lightness is an advantage but also the features it comes with large pop-out canopy which have SPF 50 protection and peekaboo window and swing-away bars that help youngsters to get into and out of seats and reclined chair and leg rests for young children.

Manoeuvrability

One of the most important factors to consider when choosing a compact double buggy is its maneuverability especially how easy it is to get around with both children aboard. Some pushchairs are more efficient than others at this, including the iCandy Orange's "cinema chair" (where the back is elevated).

This is where narrow tandem buggies as well as side-by-side designs come in handy. Buggies with this type of design can be a bit larger and could be difficult to get through doors.

The UPPAbaby Vista 2 pushchair is an excellent example, since it's a narrow model that allows for two additional seats, and - most importantly - the pillion board, which can be used to accommodate a third child.

Other smaller, three-wheeled models, such as the phil&teds Dot, are also extremely flexible. This is especially evident with its innovative "dot kit" that transforms it into an inline buggie. It has different seating configurations for kids of varying ages and even allows the front seat to be turned to face the parents for optimum face-to-face time. It comes with an ample storage basket and is easy to fold. This is a great solution for families with growing children.

Comfort

With compact tandem strollers or flexible side-by-side buggies, parents can keep an eye on both children at the park, at the grocery store or any other place. These lightweight doubles can accommodate two children with a maximum weight of 50 pounds each. They also have a pop-out canopy which can be extended enough to provide real shade. The doubles also feature a single parent cupholder and a reversible cupholder on the seat back. They also include an ample underseat storage basket.

If you're just beginning to build an expanding family, consider adding the double kit from phil&teds to your dot buggy to turn it into an inline double ideal for toddlers and newborns alike. The clever 3-wheel design allows for simple kerb popping and excellent maneuverability, while the sling seat provides a great option for newborns to bond with their parents. You can easily swap out the seat for an infant car adapter once your children grow older. You're now ready for your next adventure with luxurious travel bag and rain cover included!
