A Small Double Buggy That's Easy to Push One-Handed and Carry Up and Down Stairs

This is the double stroller that you need in case you're looking for a lightweight stroller that is easy to push with one hand. It's also easy to carry up and down the stairs.

It comes with two fixed seats, and up to 30 different seating configurations are possible (including the triangular design!). Both seats feature UPF 50+ canopy as well as peekaboo windows.

Size

The Joovy Kooper X2 is a side-by-side double stroller which can hold two children with a weight of up to 50 pounds each. Its seats are larger sized than those of other lightweight double strollers and the canopy comes with spacious SPF 50 sunshades, with peekaboo windows. Other important features include cup holders for one parent and an enormous, self-standing basket that can accommodate up to 25 lbs; swing-away bars for children to get into and out of their seats and the wheels can be locked with swivels to allow for better maneuverability on rough terrain. This is a great option for suburban and urban families. It also comes with a double kit that includes a newborn wedgie that allows for an optimum lie-flat position.

Weight

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

Make sure to read the specifications of each model carefully before you purchase. Some double buggies have a maximum seat weight, while others have a frame limit. Some also fold with seats removed, making them smaller and lighter, which can be useful if storage space is at a premium.

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

Tandem buggies start out as a single pushchair and have adapters that allow you to add a carrycot, a second seat or car seat, making them an ideal choice for growing families. Some, like the iCandy Orange offer over 30 different seating configurations, so they can adapt to your family, even with a third child. They are generally heavier than tri-fold doubles. However, they're generally easier to move between kerbs due to the weight being evenly distributed.

Folding

The most compact double buggies fold up easily, in just a few seconds. Our Lab experts love this feature as it helps them to fit the buggies into the back of their cars and also save storage space when not in use. For example the Joovy Kooper X2 has straps on each seat that pull up, and the whole thing folds down. it's a tri-fold that even our most senior testers could do with one hand.

The light Delta Children LX Side by Side is another good choice for a small double buggies. Its light weight is a plus but its main features are: nice-sized pop-out canopies with SPF 50 and peekaboo windows, swing-away bars that help youngsters climb in and out of the seats and reclining seats and leg rests for smaller kids.

Manoeuvrability

When choosing a small double stroller, you need to think about its maneuverability. double pushchair includes the ease for both children to travel in the buggy. Some pushchairs, for instance the iCandy Orange with its 'cinema seating' (where the back seat is elevated) are better than other models.

This is where narrow tandem buggies and side-by-side designs come in useful. However, they can be slightly longer overall, and therefore could be tricky to maneuver through doorways.


The UPPAbaby Vista 2 pushchair is a great example, as it is a relatively narrow model that allows for two seats in addition to - most importantly - the pillion board, which can accommodate a third kid.

Other smaller, three-wheeled models like the phil&teds dot are extremely agile, particularly thanks to its clever 'dot kit which transforms into an inline buggy. It comes with two seating options for children of different age groups and the front seat can be turned to face the parents for an intimate bonding experience. It has an ample storage basket and is easy to fold. This is a great solution for families with growing children.

Comfort

With narrow tandem strollers, or flexible side-by-side buggies parents can keep an eye on both kids at the park, grocery store or anywhere else. These lightweight doubles can carry two children up to 50 pounds per seat and come with spacious pop-out canopy, which extends enough to provide real shade, with windows that peek out and padded leg 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 one cup holder for parents, plus a large underseat basket.

If you're beginning with an expanding family, consider adding the double kit from phil&teds to your dot buggy to turn it into an inline double, ideal for toddlers and infants alike. The innovative 3-wheel design offers an excellent maneuverability and simple kerb pop, whilst the sling seat is a fab baby-friendly option for the ultimate face-to-face bonding.
