A Small Double Buggy That’s Easy to Push One-Handed and Carry Up and Down Stairs
If you’re looking to purchase a light double stroller that’s easy to push with one hand and take up and down stairs this is the model for you.
It comes with two fixed seats that can provide up to 30 seating configurations (including triple!). Both seats have UPF 50+ canopy that has peekaboo windows.
Size
The Joovy Kooper X2 double stroller is a side-by-side double stroller. It can accommodate two children up to 50 pounds. Its seats are more generously sized than those of other strollers with lightweight designs, and the canopies have spacious SPF 50 sunshades, with peekaboo windows. Other features that are important include a self-standing basket that has a the capacity of 25lbs and cup holders for one parent, and swing-away bars that help children get in and out of their seats. This is a great option for urban and suburban families. It is also newborn ready with the double kit which includes the newborn’s wedgie to ensure an optimum lie-flat position.
Weight
The weight of a thule double stroller buggy is one the most important factors that determine the ease to push. A lighter buggy is easier to lift and transport, but may not have enough suspension to deal with bumps and uneven terrain.
Be sure to check the specifications of each model carefully before purchasing. Certain double buggies have the capacity to hold a maximum weight of a person, while others have an overall frame limit. Certain double buggies can be folded with seats removed, making them smaller and lighter. This is helpful in cases where you have limited storage space.
The tri-fold doubles tend to be the lightest, since only one hand is required to lift the lower and back sections. They are also smaller than buggies with side-by-side sides and can be accessed through the majority of doors. The iCandy Geo 3 tri-fold double stroller with infant car seat is one of lighter models available. It can comfortably fit twins or a toddler baby.
Tandem buggies are perfect for families that are growing because they begin as a single stroller but can be modified to include a second seat or car seat, or carrycot. Some, such as the iCandy Orange offer over 30 different seating configurations, meaning they can expand with your family, even up to a 3rd child. They are heavier than tri-folds however, because the weight is evenly dispersed, they are more comfortable to maneuver.
Folding
The best double buggies for small children fold in a matter of minutes. This feature is well-loved by our Lab experts as it allows them to fit the buggies in the back of their cars and save space when they are not in use. For instance the Joovy Kooper X2 has straps on each seat that can be pulled up, and the entire thing folds down. it’s a tri-fold that even our most experienced testers can do with one hand.
The lightweight Delta Children LX side by side is a great option for a double buggie. Its lightness is a plus but also the features it comes with big pop-out canopy that include SPF 50 protection and a windows that peek out at you as well as swing-away bars to assist little ones get into and out of seats and reclined chair and leg rests for young children.
Manoeuvrability
When picking a compact double umbrella stroller stroll, it’s important to think about its maneuverability. This includes how easy it is for both children to ride in the buggy. Certain pushchairs are better than others at this and include the iCandy’s “cinema chair” (where the back is elevated).
Buggies with narrow tandems can be good at this, as are side-by-side designs. However, they can be more substantial overall and so may be tricky to maneuver through doorways.
The UPPAbaby Vista 2 is an excellent example, because it’s a comparatively compact pushchair that allows for two seats to be added as well as the most important thing is the ‘piggyback’ board which can carry an additional child.
Other smaller, three-wheeled models, such as the phil&teds Dot, are also extremely agile. This is particularly true with its clever “dot kit” that transforms it into an inline buggie. It comes with different seating configurations that are suitable for children with different ages. It even allows the front seat to rotate to face the parents for optimum face-to-face time. It also comes with a fantastic storage basket that is easy to fold. This is a great choice for families that are growing.
Comfort
Parents can keep both children in sight at the park, grocery store, or any other place with narrow tandem buggies or side-by-side buggies. These lightweight doubles can carry two children up to 50 pounds each and come with spacious pop-out canopy that extends far enough to offer real shade, with peekaboo windows and padded leg rests for children to relax and kick back. They also come with cup holders for the seatback that are reversible, as well as an individual cup holder for parents and a large underseat basket.
