This is the double stroller you need in case you're looking for a lightweight stroller that is easy to push with one hand. It's also simple 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 and windows that peek out.

Size

The Joovy Kooper X2 double stroller is a side-by side double stroller. It can hold two children who weigh up to 50 lbs. Its seats are larger bigger than those of other strollers with lightweight designs and the canopy has large SPF 50 sunshades that have windows that are peekaboo. Other features that are important include one-parent cup holders and an enormous, self-standing basket that can hold up to 25 pounds; swing-away bar for kids to get out and in their seats; and swivel lock front wheels to make it easier to maneuver on difficult terrain. It is a great option for urban and suburban families. It also comes with two kits that include the newborn's wedgie to ensure the perfect lie-flat position.

Weight

The weight of a double buggy is one of the most important factors that determine the ease to push. A lighter buggy is simpler to lift and carry, but might not have enough suspension to deal with bumps and uneven terrain.

Most double buggies come with an upper limit on the weight of each seat and some have overall frame weight limits which is why it's essential to check the details of each model before you purchase. Some models fold down with seats removed, making them even lighter and more compact and compact double stroller, which is a great option when storage space is at the limit.

The tri-fold doubles are generally the lightest of models since only one hand is required to lift the lower and back sections. They're also narrower than side-by-side buggies, which makes them an ideal choice for fitting through doors. The iCandy Geo 3 tri-fold double is among the most lightweight on the market. It is able to comfortably accommodate twins or a toddler baby.

Tandem buggies start out as a single to double buggy pushchair but come with adapters that allow you to add an additional seat, carrycot or car seat, making them a great option for growing families. Some models, such as the iCandy Orange, offer over 30 seating options, so they can grow with your family up to the age of a third child. They tend to weigh more than tri-fold doubles. However, they're generally easier to move between kerbs due to the weight being evenly distributed.

Folding

The best small double buggies fold easily and can be folded in a matter of seconds. Our Lab experts appreciate this feature as it helps them fit the buggies in the back of their cars and free up storage space when not in use. The Joovy Kooper X2 for example has straps that can be pulled up over each seat and the entire thing folds down. Even our oldest testers could do this tri-fold with just one hand.

The lightweight Delta Children LX Side by Side is another great option for a small double buggies. Its lightweight weight is a plus but it also has some great features: nice-sized pop-out canopies with SPF 50 and peekaboo windows swing-away bars that aid little ones get in and out of the seats and reclined seating and leg rests for younger kids.

Manoeuvrability

One of the most important aspects to take into consideration when selecting the right size double buggy is its manoeuvrability especially how easy it is to get around with two children on board. Some pushchairs, for instance the iCandy Orange with its 'cinema seating' (where the back seat is elevated) are more efficient at this than other models.

This is the reason why narrow tandem buggies and side-by-side designs can come in handy. However, they can be more substantial overall and so may be tricky to maneuver through doors.

The UPPAbaby Vista 2 is an excellent example of this since it's a compact pushchair that allows two seats to be added, and - importantly - an 'piggyback'-style board that can carry an additional child.

Other smaller, three-wheeled models, such as the phil&teds Dot, are also extremely flexible. This is especially true with its clever "dot kit" that transforms it into an inline buggie. This has a couple of different seating configurations for kids with different ages. It even allows the front seat to rotate to face parents, allowing for the ultimate face-to-face time. It also comes with a fantastic storage basket and is super-easy to fold. It is a great option for growing families!

Comfort

These lightweight doubles can hold two children up to 50 pounds per seat and come with large pop-out canopy that extends enough to provide real shade with windows that peek out and padded leg rests for the little ones to kick back and relax. The doubles also feature one cupholder for each parent and a reversible cupholder on the seat back. They also come with a large underseat storage basket.
