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

If you're looking for a lightweight double stroller that you can push with one hand, and then 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+ canopy that has windows that can be seen from a distance.

Size

The Joovy Kooper X2 is a side-by-side double stroller which can accommodate two children of with a weight of up to 50 pounds each. The seats are larger bigger than those of other lightweight double strollers and the canopy comes with nice-sized SPF 50 sunshades with peekaboo windows. Other important features include one-parent cup holders and an enormous, self-standing basket that can hold up to 25 pounds; swing-away bars for children 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 choice for suburban and urban families. It is also newborn ready with a double kit that 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 simpler to lift and carry, but might not have enough suspension to deal with bumps and uneven terrain.

Most double buggies have a maximum weight per seat and some have overall frame maximums and it's important to know the specifics of each model before you purchase. Some models fold with seats removed to make them smaller and lighter this can be beneficial if storage space is at a premium.

The tri-fold doubles are generally the lightest, since only one hand is needed to lift the lower and back sections. They're also a bit smaller than side-byside buggies, which makes them an ideal choice for fitting through doorways. The iCandy Geo 3 is one of the lightest tri-fold doubles on the market. It can comfortably accommodate twins or a toddler and baby.

Tandem buggies start out as one pushchair, but they come with adapters to accommodate a carrycot, a second seat or car seat which makes them a great option for growing families. Some models, such as the iCandy Orange, offer over 30 seating configurations, meaning they can adapt to your family to accommodate three children. They are generally heavier than tri-fold doubles. However, they're often easier to maneuver up and down kerbs thanks to the weight being evenly distributed.

Folding

The most effective double buggies for young children fold in a matter of seconds. Our Lab experts appreciate this feature because it lets them squeeze the buggies into the back of their car and free up storage space when not in use. The Joovy Kooper X2 for example has straps that can be pulled up over each seat and the entire thing folds down. Even our most experienced testers could do the tri-fold with only one hand.

The lightweight Delta Children LX Side by Side is a good alternative for a compact double buggie. Its light weight is a plus but so are the features it has big pop-out canopy that include SPF 50 protection and a peekaboo window as well as swing-away bars to assist children to get into and out of seats and reclined chairs and leg rests designed for young children.

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. Certain pushchairs, like the iCandy Orange with its 'cinema seating' (where the back seat is elevated) are better at this than others.

Narrow tandem buggies can be effective in this regard as can side-byside designs. Buggies with this type of design can be a bit longer and can be difficult to navigate through doorways.

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

Other models with three wheels like the phil&teds dot are extremely agile, particularly with its clever 'dot kits which transforms into an inline buggy. It has different seating options for children with different ages. It even allows the front seat to rotate to face parents, allowing for the ultimate face-to-face bonding time. It has an enormous storage basket that is easy to fold. This is a great choice for families that are growing.

Comfort

With narrow tandem strollers or versatile buggies that can be used side-by-side, parents can monitor both children at the park, grocery store or wherever else. These lightweight doubles can carry two children up to 50 lbs per seat and come with generous pop-out canopy that extends enough to provide real shade, with peekaboo windows and padded leg rests for little ones to sit back and relax. They also come with cup holders for the seatback that are reversible, as well as an individual cup holder for parents, plus a large underseat basket.

Add the phil&teds Double Kit to your dot buggy when you are starting out with a growing household. It will transform it into a double inline stroller, which is great for both newborns and toddlers. The innovative 3-wheel design gives the best lightweight double stroller maneuverability and a simple kerb pop. The sling seat is an excellent newborn-ready choice for ultimate face-to-face bonding. When your little ones become older just switch the sling to an infant car seat adapter and you're set to go. You're now ready for your next adventure with luxury travel bag and rain cover!
