Weight

The weight of a double buggies will determine the ability to push. A light buggy is easier to lift and transport, 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, so it's important to know the specifics of each model before you purchase. Some models fold down with seats removed to make them even lighter and more compact, which can be useful when storage space is at the limit.

Tri-fold doubles are typically the lightest, since they only require a single hand to lift the top and lower sections. They're also narrower than side-by-side buggies, which makes them ideal for fitting through doors. The iCandy Geo 3 is one of the lightest trifold doubles on the market and can comfortably accommodate twins or a baby and toddler.

Tandem buggies are great for families that are growing because they start as a single stroller, but can be adapted to include a second child or car seat, or carrycot. Some, like the iCandy Orange offer over 30 different seating configurations, so they can adapt to your family, with a third child. They tend to weigh more than tri-fold doubles, but they're usually easier to move up and down kerbs thanks to the weight being more evenly distributed.

Folding

The best small double buggies fold up easily in a matter of seconds. Our Lab experts love this feature since it helps them squeeze the buggies in the back of their cars and also save storage space when they are not in use. For instance the Joovy Kooper X2 has straps on each seat that pull up, and the entire thing folds down -- it's a tri-fold that even our most senior testers could accomplish with just one hand.

The lightweight Delta Children LX Side by Side is another good choice for a compact double buggie. Its lightness is a plus but is the features it has big pop-out canopy that include SPF 50 protection and a peekaboo window; swing-away bars to help little ones get in and out of seats; and reclining chairs and leg rests for little ones.

Manoeuvrability

When selecting a compact double stroll, it's important to think about its maneuverability. This includes how easy it is for both children to ride in the buggy. Some pushchairs are more efficient than others in this regard such as the iCandy Orange's "cinema chair" (where the back is elevated).


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

The UPPAbaby Vista 2 is an excellent example, as it's a relatively compact pushchair that allows for two seats to be added, and the most important thing is a 'piggyback' board that can carry a third child.

twin pushchair -wheeled models like the phil&teds dot are also incredibly agile, especially with its clever 'dot kits which transforms into an inline buggy.
