Size

The Joovy Kooper X2 is a side-by-side double stroller that can seat two children up to 50 lbs each. The seats are larger large than other strollers with lightweight designs, and the canopies have spacious SPF 50 sunshades, with windows that peek out.

This is a great option for suburban and urban families. It is also newborn-ready with the double set which includes a wedgie for a lie-flat position.

Weight

The weight of a double buggy is one of 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 withstand bumps and uneven all terrain double buggy.

The majority of double buggies have a maximum weight per seat, sit and stand double stroller some have overall frame weight limits and it's important to know the specifics of each model prior to making a buy. Some double buggies are able to fold with the seats removed, which makes them lighter and more compact. This is a great option if you are limited on storage space.

Tri-fold doubles are generally the lightest of models, since they only require a single hand to lift the top and lower sections. They're also a bit smaller than side-byside buggies, making them a good choice to fit 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 are great for families that are growing because they start as a single stroller, but can be modified to accommodate a second seat, car seat or carrycot. Some, like the iCandy Orange offer over 30 different seating options, so they can adapt to your family as high as a 3rd child. Doubles are heavier than trifolds, but because the weight is evenly distributed, they are easier to maneuver.

Folding

The most effective double pram stroller buggies for young children can fold up in just a few minutes. Our Lab experts appreciate this feature because it lets them squeeze the buggies into the back of their vehicles and free up storage space when they are not in use. The Joovy Kooper X2 for example comes with straps that can be pulled up over each seat and then the whole thing folds down. Even our oldest testers could do this tri-fold in just one hand.

The light Delta Children LX Side by Side is a good alternative for a compact double buggie. Its lightweight weight is a plus, but it also has some great features such as large pop-out canopies that have SPF 50 and peekaboo windows, swing-away bars that help youngsters get in and out of the seats; and reclined seats and leg rests for smaller children.

Manoeuvrability

One of the most important aspects to take into consideration when selecting a compact double pushchair buggy is its manoeuvrability, particularly how it is simple to move around with two children on board. Some pushchairs are more efficient than others in this regard such as the iCandy Orange's 'cinema seat' (where the back is elevated).

Buggies with narrow tandems can be good at this, as are side-by-side designs. However, these can be more substantial overall and can be tricky to maneuver through doorways.

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

Other smaller, three-wheeled models like the phil&teds dot are also incredibly agile, especially with its clever 'dot kits which transforms it into an inline buggy. It has two different seating arrangements for children of different age groups and the front seat can be rotated to face the parents to create a more intimate bonding experience.
