Size
The Joovy Kooper X2 is a side-by-side double umbrella stroller stroller which can seat two children at up to 50lbs each. The seats are bigger than the other double jogging stroller strollers with lightweights and the canopy has large SPF 50 sunshades that have peekaboo windows. Other key features include a self-standing bin with capacity of 25 pounds and cup holders for one parent, and swing-away bars to help kids get in and out of their seats. This is a great choice for urban and suburban families. It also comes with a double to single buggy kit that includes a newborn wedgie for the best compact double stroller position to lie flat.
Weight
The weight of a double buggy is among the key factors that will determine how easy it is to push. A lighter buggy is easier to lift and carry, but may not have enough suspension to deal with bumps and uneven terrain.
The majority of double buggies have a maximum weight per seat and some have overall frame limits which is why it's essential to verify the specifications of each model before you buy. Certain double buggies can be folded with the seats removed, making them lighter and smaller. This is helpful if you are limited on storage space.
The tri-fold doubles are generally the lightest of models since only one hand is needed to lift the lower and back sections. They're also a bit smaller than side-byside buggies, which makes them a good choice for fitting through doorways. The iCandy Geo 3 tri-fold double is one of lightest on the market. It is able to comfortably accommodate twins, or a toddler and baby.
Tandem buggies are ideal for growing families because they begin as a single stroller but can be modified to include a second child such as a car seat or carrycot. Some, like the iCandy Orange offer over 30 different seating configurations, so they can expand with your family, up to a 3rd child. They tend to weigh more than tri-fold doubles, however they're often easier to maneuver up and down kerbs thanks to the weight being more evenly distributed.
Folding
The best small double buggies fold up easily, in a matter of seconds. Our Lab experts appreciate this feature because it lets them to fit the buggies into the back of their cars and save storage space when they are not in use. The Joovy Kooper X2 for example includes straps that can be pulled up on each seat and then the whole thing folds down. Even our oldest testers were able to fold this tri-fold with just one hand.
The light Delta Children LX side by side is a great option for double buggies. Its light weight is a plus but is the features it has: large pop-out canopies that come with SPF 50 protection as well as a windows that peek out at you; swing-away bars to help youngsters get in and out of seats; and reclined chair and leg rests for little ones.
Manoeuvrability
One of the most important factors to take into consideration when selecting a small double buggy is its manoeuvrability especially how it is simple to move around with both children aboard. Certain pushchairs are more efficient than others and include the iCandy's "cinema seat" (where the back is elevated).
This is where narrow tandem buggies as well as side-by-side designs can be useful. However, these can be slightly longer overall and can be difficult to maneuver through doorways.
The UPPAbaby Vista 2 pushchair is an excellent example, since it is a relatively small model that has two seats in addition to more importantly, a pillion board that can accommodate a third kid.
Other models with three wheels such as the phil&teds Dot are extremely agile, particularly thanks to its clever 'dot kit that transforms it into an inline buggie. It comes with different seating configurations for kids of different ages. It also allows the front seat to rotate to face parents, allowing for the ultimate face-to-face bonding. It also comes with a fantastic storage basket and is super-easy to fold. This is a great option for families with growing children.
Comfort
With compact tandem strollers or flexible side-by-side buggies parents can keep an eye on both kids at the park, at the grocery store or wherever else. These lightweight doubles are able to hold two children, with a maximum weight of 50 pounds each. They also come with a pop-out canopy that can be extended enough to give shade. They also come with cup holders for the seatback that are reversible, as well as an individual cup holder for parents as well as a huge underseat basket.
If you're beginning with a growing family, add the phil&teds double kit to your dot buggy to turn it into an inline double, ideal for toddlers and newborns alike. The innovative 3-wheel design offers the best maneuverability and a simple kerb pop, while the Sling seat is a fantastic newborn-ready choice for ultimate face to face bonding time.
