It has a pair fixed seats with up to 30 different seating configurations are possible (including an angular one!). Both seats have UPF 50+ canopies with windows that peek out.

Size

The Joovy Kooper X2 double stroller is a side by side double stroller. It can hold two children weighing up to 50lbs. Its seats are larger bigger than those of other lightweight double strollers and the canopy has large SPF 50 sunshades that have windows that peek out. Other notable features include a self-standing basket that has a a capacity of 25 lbs cup holders for one parent, and swing-away bars to help kids to get into and out of their seats. It is a great choice for urban and suburban families. It is also newborn ready with the double kit which includes a newborn wedgie for the perfect lie-flat position.

Weight

The weight of a double buggy is among the most important factors that determine how easy it is to push. Typically, a light buggy is easier to lift and carry but it might not have the suspension to withstand bumps and uneven terrain.

Be sure to check the specifications of each model before buying. Certain double buggies have a maximum seat weight while others have an overall frame limit. Some also fold down with seats removed, making them smaller and lighter this can be beneficial in cases where storage space is the limit.

The tri-fold doubles are typically the lightest models as only one hand is required to lift the front and back sections. They are also narrower than buggies that are side by side and are able to fit through most doorways. The iCandy Geo 3 tri-fold double is one of lightest on the market. It can comfortably fit twins, or a toddler and baby.

Tandem buggies begin as one pushchair, but they come with adapters to add a second seat, carrycot or car seat they are a great option for growing families. Some, such as the iCandy Orange offer over 30 different seating configurations, so they can adapt to your family with a third child. Doubles are heavier than trifolds, however, because the weight is evenly distributed, they are easier to maneuver.

Folding

The best double buggies designed for small children can fold up in just a few minutes. This feature is well-loved by our Lab experts as it allows them to fit the buggies in the back of their vehicles and save space when not being used. The Joovy Kooper X2 for example comes with straps that can be pulled up over each seat and the entire thing folds down. Even our oldest testers were able to fold this tri-fold in just one hand.

The lightweight double stroller Delta Children LX side by side is another excellent option for double buggies. Its lightness is an advantage but so are the features it offers: large pop-out canopies that include SPF 50 protection and a the peek-a-boo window as well as swing-away bars to assist children to get into and out of seats and reclined chairs and leg rests designed for young children.

Manoeuvrability

When selecting a compact double stroller, you need to consider its maneuverability. This includes how easy it is for both children to travel in the buggy. Certain pushchairs are more efficient than others at this such as the iCandy Orange's 'cinema seat' (where the back is elevated).

This is where narrow tandem buggies as well as side-by-side designs come in useful. However, they are slightly longer overall and can be tricky to navigate through doorways.

The UPPAbaby Vista 2 pushchair is an excellent example, since it is a relatively small model that has two additional seats, and the most important thing is an auxiliary board that can accommodate a third child.

Other smaller, three-wheeled models, like the phil&teds Dot are also incredibly flexible. This is especially the case with its clever "dot kit" that transforms it into an inline buggie. It offers two seating arrangements for children of various ages, and the front seat can be rotated to face the parents to create more intimate bonding. It comes with an ample storage basket and is easy to fold. A great choice for growing families!

Comfort

Parents can keep both children within sight at the park, grocery store or anywhere else with narrow tandem buggies or side-by-side buggies. These lightweight doubles can accommodate two children as much as 50 pounds per seat and come with generous, pop-out canopies that extend far enough to offer real shade, with windows that peek out and padded leg rests for children to kick back and relax. They also have convenient cup holders for the seatback that are reversible, as well as one cup holder for parents, plus a large underseat basket.
