Some also fold down with seats removed, making them even lighter and more compact this can be beneficial when storage space is at the limit.

Tri-fold doubles are generally the lightest of models, since they only require a single double stroller hand to lift the top and lower sections. They are also smaller than side-by-side buggies, which makes them an ideal choice 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 start out as a single pushchair and have adapters to add a carrycot, a second seat or car seat which makes them the ideal choice for expanding families.

The narrow tandem buggies are effective in this regard and so can side-by-side designs. However, they are more substantial overall and can be tricky to navigate through doorways.

The UPPAbaby Vista 2 is an excellent example of this, as it's a relatively narrow pushchair that still allows two seats to be added, and - importantly - an 'piggyback'-style board that can be used to carry the third child.
