20 Things You Need To Know About Small Double Buggy

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 is easy to push one-handed and take up and down stairs this is the model for you.

It has a pair fixed seats with up to 30 different seating configurations are possible (including a triangular one!). Both seats feature UPF 50+ canopy as well as peekaboo windows.

Size

The Joovy Kooper X2 double twin stroller side by side is a side-by side double stroller. It can hold two children up to 50 pounds. The seats are larger bigger than those of other lightweight double strollers, and the canopies have large SPF 50 sunshades that have windows that are peekaboo. Other important features include cup holders for one parent and an enormous, self-standing basket that can hold up to 25 lbs; swing-away bars for children to get out and in their seats and swivel lock front wheels to make it easier to maneuver on difficult terrain. It's a great choice for urban and suburban families. It is also newborn-ready with two sets that include a wedgie to help you sleep in a lying-flat position.

Weight

The weight of double buggies will determine its ease of pushing. In general, a buggy that is light will be easier to lift and carry but it might not have enough suspension to handle bumps and uneven terrain.

Check the specifications of each model before buying. Certain double buggies have an upper limit on the weight of the seats and others have an overall frame limit. Some double pushchair from birth buggies can be folded with the seats removed, making them lighter and more compact. This is helpful when you're limited on storage space.

Tri-fold doubles are typically the lightest of models, since they only require one hand to lift the top and lower sections. They are also narrower than side by side buggies and can be accessed through the majority of doorways. The iCandy Geo 3 is one of the lightest tri-fold doubles on the market, and can comfortably accommodate twins or a toddler and baby.

Tandem buggies are great for families that are growing because they start as a single stroller, but can be modified to include a second seat such as a car seat or carrycot. Some, like the iCandy Orange offer over 30 different seating options, so they can expand with your family, with a third child. They are heavier than tri-folds however, since the weight is more evenly distributed, they are much easier to move around.

Folding

The most effective double buggies for young children fold in a matter of seconds. Our Lab experts appreciate this feature since it helps them fit the buggies into the back of their cars and also save storage space when they are not in use. For instance 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 senior testers could do with one hand.

The light Delta Children LX side by side is a great option for a double buggies. Its light weight is a plus however, its main features are including large pop-out canopy with SPF 50 and peekaboo windows, swing-away bars to help children get in and out of the seats and reclining seats and leg rests designed for younger children.

Manoeuvrability

One of the most important factors to think about when selecting the right size double buggy is its maneuverability and how it is simple to move around with both children in the. Some pushchairs are better than others at this such as the iCandy Orange's 'cinema seat' (where the back is elevated).

Narrow tandem buggies can be excellent at this, as are side-by-side designs. These buggies may be a bit longer and may be difficult to navigate through doorways.

The UPPAbaby Vista 2 pushchair is a great example, as it's a small model that has two additional seats, and more importantly, a pillion board that can accommodate a third kid.

Other smaller, three-wheeled models, such as the phil&teds Dot, are also incredibly agile. This is especially true with its clever "dot kit" which transforms it into an inline buggie. This has a couple of different seating options for children of varying ages and even allows the front seat to be rotated to face parents for ultimate face-to-face bonding. It also comes with a storage basket that is easy to fold. This is a great solution for families that are growing.

Comfort

Parents can keep both children within sight at the park, grocery store or wherever else using narrow tandem buggies, or side-by-side buggies. These lightweight doubles can accommodate two children up to 50 lbs each. They also come with pop-out canopy that can be extended far enough to give shade. They also come with cup holders that can be reversible and placed on the seatback. They also have a single parent cup holder and a large underseat basket.

Add the phil&teds Double Kit to your dot buggy if are just beginning to build a growing household. It will transform it into a double-inline stroller that is ideal for toddlers and newborns alike. The clever 3-wheel design makes for simple kerb popping and excellent mobility, while the sling seat provides the perfect opportunity for babies to bond with their parents. If your kids grow older, simply switch the sling to an infant car seat adapter and you're set to go. You're ready for your next adventure with deluxe travel bag and rain cover!
