Weight

The weight of a double buggy is among the key factors that will determine its ease to push. A lighter buggy is easier to lift and carry, but might not have enough suspension to handle bumps and uneven terrain.

Be sure to check the specifications of each model before you purchase. Certain double buggies come with an upper limit on the weight of the seats, while others have an overall frame limit. Certain double buggies can fold with the seats removed, which makes them smaller and lighter. This is a great option in cases where you have limited storage space.

The tri-fold doubles tend to be the lightest models as only one hand is needed to lift the bottom and back sections. They are also a bit smaller than side by side buggies and can be accessed through the majority of doors. The iCandy Geo 3 tri-fold double is among the most lightweight on the market. It can comfortably fit twins, or a toddler and baby.

Tandem buggies are great for growing families because they start as a single stroller but can be modified to accommodate a second seat, car seat or carrycot. Some, like the iCandy Orange offer over 30 different seating options, so they can expand with your family, as high as a 3rd child. They tend to be heavier than tri-fold doubles, but they're usually easier to move across kerbs due to the weight being more evenly distributed.

Folding

The best double buggies for small children fold up in seconds. This feature is well-loved by our Lab experts as they can fit the buggies in the back of their vehicles and save space when they are not in use. The Joovy Kooper X2 for example includes straps that can be pulled up on the seats and the whole thing folds down. Even our most experienced testers were able to fold this tri-fold in just one hand.

Its lightness is a plus but so are the features it comes with: large pop-out canopies that include SPF 50 protection and a the peek-a-boo window and swing-away bars that help little ones get in and out of their seats; and reclined chairs and leg rests designed for young children.

Manoeuvrability

When choosing a small double stroll, it's important to take into account its maneuverability. This includes the ease for both children to be able to ride in the buggy. Some pushchairs are better than others such as the iCandy Orange's 'cinema seat' (where the back is elevated).

Narrow tandem buggies can be effective in this regard, as are side-by-side designs. These buggies can be a bit larger and may be difficult to get through doors.

The UPPAbaby Vista 2 is an excellent example of this, as it's a relatively narrow pushchair that still allows for two seats to be added as well as the most important thing is the 'piggyback' board which can be used to carry an additional child.

Other smaller, three-wheeled models such as the phil&teds Dot are also incredibly agile, especially thanks to its clever 'dot kit that transforms it into an inline buggy.
