Size

The Joovy Kooper X2 is a double stroller that is side-by-side and can accommodate two children of with a weight of up to 50 pounds each. The seats are bigger than the other double strollers with lightweights and the canopy has large SPF 50 sunshades with peekaboo windows.

It is a great choice for suburban and urban families. It is also newborn ready with a double kit that includes a newborn wedgie for an optimum lie-flat position.

Weight

The weight of a double buggy is among the key factors that will determine the ease to push. Typically, a light buggy will be easier to lift and transport however, it may not have as much suspension to handle bumps and uneven terrain.

Make sure to read the specifications of each model carefully before purchasing. Some double buggies come with a maximum seat weight, while others have an overall frame limit. Some also fold with the seats removed, making them even smaller and lighter and compact, which is a great option when storage space is at an all-time low.

The tri-fold doubles tend to be the lightest models as only one hand is needed to lift the front and back sections. They're also narrower than side-by-side buggies, making them ideal for fitting through doorways. The iCandy Geo 3 is one of the lightest tri-fold doubles available on the market, and can comfortably accommodate twins or a toddler and a baby.

Tandem buggies are great for families with growing children since they begin as a single stroller but can be modified to include a second child or car seat, or carrycot. Some, like the iCandy Orange offer over 30 different seating configurations, meaning they can expand with your family, even up to a 3rd child. Doubles are heavier than tri-folds but because the weight is more evenly distributed, they are easier to maneuver.


Folding

The most effective double buggies for young children fold up in minutes. Our Lab experts appreciate this feature as it helps them squeeze the buggies into the back of their cars and free up storage space when not in use. For example the Joovy Kooper X2 has straps on each seat that can be pulled up, and the whole thing folds down -- it's a trifold, which even our most experienced testers can accomplish with just one hand.

The light Delta Children LX Side by Side is another good choice for a small double buggie. Its lightweight weight is an advantage, but so are its key features including large pop-out canopy with SPF 50 and peekaboo windows, swing-away bars to help little ones to climb into and out of the seats; and reclining seats and leg rests for smaller children.

Manoeuvrability

When selecting a compact double stroller, you need to consider its maneuverability. This includes how easy it is for both children to be able to ride in the buggy. Some pushchairs are better than others at this such as the iCandy Orange's 'cinema seat' (where the back is elevated).

Buggies with narrow tandems can be excellent at this and so can side-by-side designs. These buggies can be a bit longer and could be difficult to maneuver through doors.

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

Other models with three wheels such as the phil&teds Dot are extremely agile, particularly with its clever 'dot kit' that turns it into an inline buggie. It comes with different seating configurations for kids of different ages. It also allows the front seat to be turned to face parents for ultimate face-to-face time.
