If you're looking for a light double stroller that is easy to push with one hand, and then take up and down stairs This is the perfect model.

It has two fixed seats with up to 30 different seating configurations are possible (including a triangular one!). Both seats feature UPF 50+ canopy and peekaboo windows.

Size

The Joovy Kooper X2 double stroller is a side by side double stroller. It can hold two children weighing up to 50 lbs. The seats are larger than other lightweight double strollers and the canopy has large SPF 50 sunshades with peekaboo windows. Other important features include one-parent cup holders and a large, self-standing bin that can accommodate up to 25 pounds; swing-away bar for kids to get into and out of their seats and swivel lock front wheels to make it easier to maneuver on difficult terrain. This is a great choice for suburban and urban families. It is also newborn ready with a double kit that includes a newborn wedgie for the perfect lie-flat position.

Weight

The weight of a double buggy is one the main factors that determine its ease to push. A lighter buggy is easier to lift and transport, but may not have enough suspension to handle bumps and uneven terrain.

Be sure to check the specifications of each model before purchasing. Some double buggies come with the capacity to hold a maximum weight of a person, while others have an overall frame limit. Some double buggies can fold with the seats removed, which makes them lighter and more compact. This is helpful if you are limited on storage space.

Tri-fold doubles are generally the lightest of models, since they only require one hand to lift the back and lower sections. They are also smaller than side-by-side buggies, which makes them an ideal choice to fit 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 perfect for families with growing children since they begin as a single stroller and can be adapted to accommodate a second seat or car seat, or carrycot. Some, such as the iCandy Orange offer over 30 different seating configurations, meaning they can grow along with your family, with a third child. Doubles are heavier than tri-folds, however, since the weight is evenly dispersed, they are more comfortable to maneuver.

Folding

The best double push chair buggies for small children fold up in seconds. Our Lab experts love this feature since it helps them squeeze the buggies into 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 each seat and the entire thing folds down. Even our most experienced testers could do the tri-fold with only one hand.

The lightweight Delta Children LX Side by Side is another great option for a compact twin stroller 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 children get in and out of the seats and reclining seats and leg rests for smaller kids.

Manoeuvrability

One of the most important factors to take into consideration when selecting a compact double buggy is its manoeuvrability especially how it is simple to move around with two children aboard. Some twin pushchairs, for instance the iCandy Orange with its 'cinema seating' (where the back seat is elevated) are more efficient at this than others.

Narrow tandem buggies can be effective in this regard as can side-byside designs. However, they are a bit longer overall, and therefore could be difficult to maneuver through doorways.

The UPPAbaby Vista 2 pushchair is a great example, as it is a relatively small model that has two additional seats, and more importantly, the pillion board, which can accommodate a third kid.

Other three-wheeled models like the phil&teds dot also incredibly agile, especially thanks to its clever 'dot kit' that turns into an inline buggy. It has two different seating arrangements for children of different ages, and the front seat can be rotated so that it faces parents to create an intimate bonding experience. It also has a great storage basket and is super-easy to fold. A great choice for growing families!

Comfort

Parents can keep both children safe at the park, in the grocery store, or any other place with narrow tandem buggies or side-by-side buggies. These lightweight twin buggy doubles can accommodate two children of up to 50 lbs per seat and come with generous pop-out canopy, which extends enough to provide real shade with window windows that can be seen from a distance and padded legs rests for children to relax and kick back. They also come with convenient cup holders that can be reversible and placed on the seatback. They also have a single parent cup holder and a large underseat basket.

Add the phil&teds Double Kit to your dot buggy if are starting out with an expanding family. It can transform into a double-inline stroller, which is great for both newborns and toddlers. The innovative 3-wheel design gives an excellent maneuverability and simple kerb pop. The sling seat is a fab newborn-ready choice for ultimate face-to-face bonding.
