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

Size

The Joovy Kooper X2 is a double stroller that is side-by-side and can accommodate two children of with a weight of up to 50 pounds each. The seats are larger than other lightweight double strollers double strollers and the canopy is fitted with large SPF 50 sunshades with peekaboo windows. Other features that are important include a self-standing basket with a capacity of 25 lbs 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 suburban and urban families. It also comes with a double stroller with car seat 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 how easy it is to push. A lighter buggy is simpler to lift and carry but may not have enough suspension to handle bumps and uneven all terrain double buggy.

Most double buggies come with the capacity to hold a maximum weight for each seat and some have total frame limits, so it's important to verify the specifications of each model prior to making a purchase. Some fold with seats removed, making them smaller and lighter, which can be useful if storage space is at the limit.

The tri-fold doubles are typically the lightest models as only one hand is required 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 among the most lightweight on the market. It can comfortably fit twins or a toddler baby.

Tandem buggies are perfect for growing families since they begin as a single stroller, but can be adapted to include a second seat, car seat or carrycot. Some, like the iCandy Orange, offer over 30 seating configurations, meaning they can expand with your family up to three children. These doubles are heavier than tri-folds, however, since the weight is more evenly dispersed, they are more comfortable to maneuver.

Folding

The most effective double buggies for young children fold in a matter of minutes. This feature is well-loved by our Lab experts because they can put the buggies inside the back of their vehicles and save space when they're not in use. The Joovy Kooper X2 for example includes straps that can be pulled up over each seat and then the whole thing folds down. Even our oldest testers were able to do the tri-fold with only one hand.

The light Delta Children LX Side by Side is another great option for a small double buggie. Its lightness is an advantage but also the features it offers large pop-out canopy which have SPF 50 protection and windows that peek out at you and swing-away bars that help little ones get into and out of seats; and reclined chairs and leg rests designed for toddlers.

Manoeuvrability

When picking a compact double stroller, you need to take into account its maneuverability. This includes the ease for both children to ride in the buggy. Some pushchairs are better than others and include the iCandy's 'cinema seat' (where the back is elevated).

This is the reason why narrow tandem buggies and side-by-side designs can come in handy. These buggies can be a bit larger and could be difficult to get through doorways.

The UPPAbaby Vista 2 pushchair is an excellent example, since it's a narrow model that allows for two seats in addition to the most important thing is the pillion board, which can accommodate a third kid.

Other smaller, three-wheeled models, such as the phil&teds Dot, are also incredibly flexible. This is especially true with its clever "dot kit" which transforms it into an inline buggie. It offers two seating arrangements for children of various ages and the front seat can be rotated so that it faces the parents to provide more intimate bonding. It has a large storage basket and is easy to fold. This is a great solution for growing families.
