Be sure to check the specifications of each model carefully before you purchase. Some double buggies have the capacity to hold a maximum weight of a person and others have an overall frame limit. Some double buggies can be folded with seats removed, which makes them smaller and lighter. This is useful in cases where you have limited storage space.

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

They are generally heavier than tri-fold doubles, however they're generally easier to move up and down kerbs thanks to the weight being distributed more evenly.

Folding

The most effective double buggies for young children can fold up in just a few seconds. Our Lab experts love this feature since it helps them squeeze the buggies in the back of their vehicles and also save storage space when not in use. The Joovy Kooper X2 for example comes with straps that can be pulled up on the seats and the whole thing folds down. Even our oldest testers were able to do the tri-fold with only one hand.

The lightweight Delta Children LX Side by Side is another good choice for a compact double buggie.

Manoeuvrability

When selecting a compact double stroller, you need to consider its maneuverability. This includes the ease for both children to travel in the buggy. Some pushchairs are better than others at this and include the iCandy's "cinema chair" (where the back is elevated).

Narrow tandem buggies can be excellent at this as can side-byside designs. Buggies with this type of design can be a bit larger and could be difficult to get through doors.

The UPPAbaby Vista 2 is an excellent example of this, as it's a relatively small pushchair that allows for two seats to be added as well as the most important thing is the 'piggyback' board which can be used to carry 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 buggie.
