What to Look For in a Compact Double Buggy

Kerry says that this side-byside is small double stroller enough to fit through the majority of doors. It can accommodate two car seats or carrycots. It folds up self-standing and a handy carry strap for easy schlepping.

The canopies are also easy to lift and move up and down the stairs. The canopies are large enough to accommodate windows as well as peekaboo openings.

Size

A spacious shopping basket as well as rear and front suspension are key elements to look for in a double buggy. You may be interested in knowing if it is a travel system or whether the car seat or carrycot can be added. These are crucial considerations if you need to take your kids on public transport or longer journeys.

You should consider the Leclerc Kooper X2 if you are looking for a compact double buggy that you can use right from the time you are born. This side-by-side model has an innovative frame that expands widthways to allow it to accommodate two children. The seats have an option to recline and can be set up independently, giving you the option of having one child leaning back and taking a nap while the other looks out at the surrounding. You will get a huge UPF 50+ canopy, with the option of a peekaboo window as well.

Another great option for newborn twins is the Mountain Buggy Duet. It is the thinnest side-byside twin pushchair available and is only 63cm wide, so will fit through most doors. It can also accommodate two car seats or one carrycot. It also has lay-flat seats that are suitable from birth.

Tandem double buggies are popular with parents of twins, or parents with a baby and a toddler. However, they tend to have a larger footprint than single-seaters and can be difficult to manoeuvre on narrow roads or through doorways.

The iCandy Orange tandem buggy is a popular tandem that can expand with your family. It comes with 30 different seating options. It can be used with twins or a baby and a toddler or three children if you purchase iCandy's "PiggyBack" board (which you can buy separately). It comes with an easy suspension system that makes kerbs easier to navigate. It can be used in single and double stroller or double mode. It is possible to attach one stroller on top for extra storage.

Weight

A good cheap double stroller buggy is light and easy to push. It should also have spacious shopping baskets, front and rear suspensions to make it easier to navigate rougher surfaces and, most importantly it is suitable for twins or siblings of different age groups.

Many compact double buggies include frames that can be used to hold infant car seats. They also come with brand-name adaptors that are compatible with popular models by Cybex BeSafe and Maxi-Cosi. They are a great choice for families with children with medical needs and would prefer not having to use separate strollers.

However, they generally have a bigger space than side-byside buggies and are more difficult to fit through doors and on public transport. Look over the product's specifications for alternatives for this if it is important to your family.

Mountain Buggy Duet is the most compact double stroller on the market. It's the slimmest side-byside available at 53cm in width and can be used by newborn twins or one toddler and one baby. It offers robust engineering and superior functionality with large air-filled tyres that are all-terrain but also great for cruising around the city.

The UPPAbaby Vista 2 is another fantastic alternative. It can accommodate twins, a baby and a toddler or two children with the piggyback board (which is required to be purchased separately). It folds up with a self-standing design and carry strap, making it super-easy to schlep, and comes with rear and front suspension to help you deal with the rough terrain. It's heavier than the Joie Evalite Duo, but lighter than most trifold buggies. This is a great option for older children.

Folding

A good double stroller needs to be compact for storage, and a suitable option is the Baby Jogger City Select 2. This side-by-side model has a smooth fold, and the clever frame expands in width when folded so that it's smaller than the standard stroller. This allows it to be more easily maneuvered through doors and on public transportation, while also reducing the need for an additional vehicle.

It's a great option for parents of twins because it can be used with two seats and car seat adaptors. It can accommodate a third child on the 'piggybackboard that is part of the buggy. It also offers many different options, including seats that are elevated to give both kids an overview of their surroundings. The adjustable handlebar comes with a handbrake, which makes it easier to push the buggy up and down hills.

Mountain Buggy Duet is another great alternative. It has the smallest footprint side-byside available measuring just 63cm. It is perfect for parents who are worried about fitting a double in the doorway or on public transport. However it is still able to tackle rough terrain like a true off-roader. It can accommodate twins, a baby and toddler or two kids with the same age, and each seat can recline independently to ensure that the children are comfortable.

The iCandy Peach is a good alternative. It can be used in mono or tandem mode, and can accommodate two car seats or a carrycot and a toddler seat. It's slightly longer than some other doubles but it offers an excellent maneuverability, particularly on smooth surfaces and is an excellent option for those who are looking for an elegant but practical buggy.

There are many budget double buggies, such as the UPPAbaby vista 2. This compact side-by-side can hold a newborn in the carrycot and an infant in the seat, or even three children if you add a PiggyBack ride on board with pizazz. It has a simple, self-standing fold and a nice big canopy that provides the kids some protection and includes a peekaboo window. It's also light for a double buggy, and comes with a larger undercarriage basket to store shopping.
