Weight

The weight of a double buggy is one the main factors that determine its ease to push. Typically, a light buggy is more easy to lift and carry but it might not have the suspension to withstand bumps and uneven terrain.

Most double buggies have a maximum weight per seat and some have overall frame maximums which is why it's essential to check the details of each model prior to making a buy. Some double buggy side by side buggies can be folded with seats removed, making them lighter and smaller. This is a great option when you're limited on storage space.

The tri-fold doubles tend to be the lightest of models since only one hand is required to lift the front and back sections. They are also narrower than buggies with side-by-side sides and can be accessed through the majority of doorways. The iCandy Geo 3 tri-fold double is one of lighter models available. It can comfortably accommodate twins or a toddler and baby.

Tandem buggies are ideal for growing families since they begin as a single stroller, but can be adapted to include a second seat, car seat or carrycot. Some models, like the iCandy Orange, offer over 30 seating options, so they can expand with your family until the age of a third child. Doubles are heavier than tri-folds, however, because the weight is evenly distributed, they are much easier to move around.

Folding

The best double buggy double buggies designed for small children fold up in minutes. This feature is well-loved by our Lab experts since it allows them to fit the buggies into the back of their vehicles and save space when they are 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 experienced testers can accomplish with just one hand.

The lightweight Delta Children LX side by side is another excellent option for a double buggie. Its lightness is a plus but so are the features it comes with big pop-out canopy that include SPF 50 protection and a the peek-a-boo window as well as swing-away bars to assist little ones get in and out of their seats; and reclining chair and leg rests for toddlers.

Manoeuvrability

When picking a compact double stroller, you need to consider its maneuverability. This is a good indicator of 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 chair" (where the back is elevated).

This is where narrow tandem buggies and side-by-side designs can be handy. These buggies may be a bit longer and can be difficult to get through doorways.

The UPPAbaby Vista 2 is an excellent example of this as it's a relatively compact twin pushchair from birth that allows for two seats to be added as well as - importantly - the 'piggyback' board which can carry a third child.

Other three-wheeled models like the phil&teds dot are extremely agile, particularly with its clever 'dot kits' that turns it into an inline buggie.
