If you're looking for a light double stroller that's easy to push with one hand and carry up and down steps this is the model for you.It comes with two fixed seats and can be configured with the possibility of up to 30 seating configurations (including three!). Both seats have UPF 50+ canopies and peekaboo windows.
Size
The Joovy Kooper X2 double stroller is a side-by side double infant stroller stroller. It can hold two children weighing up to 50 lbs. The seats are more spacious than the other double buggy with car seat strollers with lightweights and the canopy is fitted with large sunshades with SPF 50 with windows that peek out. Other notable features include a self-standing basket that has a the capacity of 25lbs and cup holders for one parent and bars that swing away to help children get in and out of their seats. This is a great option for suburban and urban families. It is also baby-friendly with the double set which includes a wedgie to help you sleep in a lying-flat position.
Weight
The weight of double buggie will determine the ability to push. Typically, a light buggy will be easier to lift and transport, but may not have enough suspension to withstand bumps and uneven terrain.
The majority of double buggies have a maximum weight per seat and some have overall frame maximums and it's important to verify the specifications of each model prior to you purchase. Certain double buggies can fold with the seats removed, which makes them lighter and smaller. This is helpful in cases where you have limited storage space.
The tri-fold doubles are generally the lightest, since only one hand is needed to lift the lower and back sections. They are also smaller than side-by-side buggies, making them ideal to fit through doorways. The iCandy Geo 3 is one of the lightest tri-fold doubles available on the market, and can comfortably accommodate twins or a toddler and a baby.
Tandem buggies start out as one twin pushchair from birth, but they come with adapters to add an additional seat, carrycot or car seat which makes them the ideal choice for expanding families. Some, like the iCandy Orange, offer over 30 seating options, so they can adapt to your family to accommodate 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 double buggies designed for small children fold in a matter of minutes. Our Lab experts appreciate this feature as it helps them fit the buggies in the back of their car and free up storage 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 do with one hand.
The light Delta Children LX side by side is another great choice for a double buggies. Its lightness is an advantage but so are the features it comes with: large pop-out canopies that have SPF 50 protection and peekaboo window and swing-away bars that help little ones get in and out of their seats; and reclining chairs and leg rests designed for young children.
Manoeuvrability
When picking a compact double stroller double, lindhardt-filtenborg-3.technetbloggers.de`s recent blog post,, it is important to think about its maneuverability. This includes the ease for both children to travel in the buggy. Some pushchairs are more efficient than others and include the iCandy's 'cinema seat' (where the back is elevated).
The narrow tandem double stroller buggies are effective in this regard, as are side-by-side designs. These buggies can be a little longer and may be difficult to maneuver through doorways.
The UPPAbaby Vista 2 pushchair is a great example, as it's a compact model that can accommodate two seats in addition to more importantly, an auxiliary board that can accommodate a third child.
Other smaller, three wheeled models, like the phil&teds Dot, are also incredibly agile. This is particularly evident with its innovative "dot kit" which transforms it into an inline buggie. It comes with different seating configurations for kids of varying ages and even allows the front seat to be rotated to face the parents for optimum face-to-face time. It comes with an enormous storage basket that is easy to fold. This is a great choice for growing families.
Comfort
With compact tandem strollers or versatile buggies that can be used side-by-side, parents can watch both kids while at the grocery store, park or anywhere else. These lightweight doubles are able to accommodate two children, with a maximum weight of 50 pounds each. They also come with pop-out canopy that can be extended far enough to give shade. The doubles come with cups for both parents and a an adjustable cupholder on the seatback. They also have an ample underseat storage basket.
If you're just beginning to build an expanding family, consider adding the phil&teds double kit to your dot buggy to turn it into an inline double pushchair perfect for newborns & toddlers alike. The clever 3-wheel design provides superior manoeuvrability and easy kerb pop. The Sling seat is a fantastic newborn-ready choice for ultimate face-to-face bonding time.
