10 Unquestionable Reasons People Hate Small Double Buggy 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's easy to push one-handed and carry up and down steps this is the model for you.

It has a pair fixed seats and up to 30 different seating configurations are possible (including a triangular one!). Both seats come with UPF 50+ canopy as well as windows that peek out.

Size

The Joovy Kooper X2 double stroller is a side-by-side double stroller. It can accommodate two children who weigh up to 50 pounds. The seats are bigger than the other double strollers with lightweights and the canopy has large sunshades with SPF 50 with peekaboo windows. Other features that are important include one-parent cup holders and a large, self-standing bin that can hold up to 25 lbs; swing-away bars for children to climb into and out of their seats; and the front wheels that swivel lock to allow for better maneuverability on rough terrain. This is a great option for urban and suburban families. It is also newborn ready with a double kit that includes a newborn wedgie that allows for the best position to lie flat.

Weight

The weight of double buggie will determine the ability to push. In general, a buggy that is light will be easier to lift and transport however, it may not have enough suspension to deal with bumps and uneven terrain.

Be sure to check the specifications of each model before purchasing. Some double buggies have a maximum seat weight and others have an overall frame limit. Some models fold with seats removed, making them lighter and more compact this can be beneficial when storage space is at an all-time low.

The tri-fold doubles are generally the lightest of models since only one hand is needed to lift the bottom and back sections. They are also smaller than buggies with side-by-side sides and can be accessed through the majority of doors. The iCandy Geo 3 tri-fold double is among the lightest on the market. It can comfortably accommodate twins, or a toddler and baby.

Tandem buggies begin as one pushchair, but they come with adapters to accommodate a carrycot, a second seat or car seat, making them an ideal choice for growing families. Some, such as the iCandy Orange offer over 30 different seating options, so they can expand with your family as high as a 3rd child. They tend to be heavier than tri-fold doubles. However, they're usually easier to move across kerbs due to the weight being evenly distributed.

Folding

The best double buggies designed for small children fold in a matter of seconds. This feature is adored by our Lab experts because it allows them to fit the buggies in the back of their vehicles and save space when they're not in use. The Joovy Kooper X2 for example comes with straps that can be pulled up over each seat and the entire thing folds down. Even our most experienced testers were able to do this tri-fold with just one hand.

The light Delta Children LX side by side is a great option for a double buggie. Its lightness is a plus but is the features it offers big pop-out canopy that come with SPF 50 protection as well as a windows that peek out at you as well as swing-away bars to assist children get in and out of seats; and reclining chairs and leg rests designed for little ones.

Manoeuvrability

One of the most important things to think about when selecting a small double buggy is its manoeuvrability especially how easy it is to get around with both children on board. Some pushchairs, such as the iCandy Orange with its 'cinema seating' (where the back seat is elevated) are better at this than other models.

This is where narrow tandem buggies as well as side-by-side designs can be handy. However, they can be a bit longer overall, and therefore could be difficult to maneuver through doorways.

The UPPAbaby Vista 2 pushchair is a great example, as it is a relatively compact model that can accommodate two seats in addition to - most importantly - an auxiliary board that can accommodate a third kid.

Other smaller, three wheeled models, such as the phil&teds Dot are also extremely agile. This is particularly evident with its innovative "dot kit" that transforms it into an inline buggie. It comes with different seating configurations for kids with different ages. It even allows the front seat to be rotated to face parents for ultimate face-to-face bonding. It also comes with a storage basket that is easy to fold. It is an excellent choice for growing families!


Comfort

Parents can keep both children in sight at the park, in the grocery store, or any other place with narrow tandem buggies or side-by-side buggies. These lightweight doubles are able to accommodate two children up to 50 lbs each. They also come with a pop-out canopy that can be extended enough to offer real shade. They also come with cup holders that can be reversible and placed on the seatback. They also have an individual cup holder for parents and a large underseat basket.

If you're beginning with a growing family, you can add the double kit from phil&teds to your dot buggy to turn it into an inline double ideal for toddlers and newborns alike. The innovative 3-wheel design allows for easy kerb popping as well as superior maneuverability, and the sling seat offers a great option for newborns to connect with their parents. You can easily swap out the sling seat for an infant car adapter when your children grow older. With a stylish rain cover and travel bag and ready for the next adventure!
