Weight The weight of double buggies will determine its ease of pushing. A light buggy is easier to lift and transport, but might 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 limits which is why it's essential to know the specifics of each model prior to making a buy. Some double buggies can fold with the seats removed, which makes them lighter and smaller. This is helpful when you're limited on storage space. The tri-fold doubles are typically the lightest of models since only one hand is required to lift the front and back sections. They're also narrower than side-by-side buggies, making them a good choice for fitting through doorways. The iCandy Geo 3 tri-fold double is among the lighter models available. It can comfortably fit twins, or a toddler and baby. Tandem buggies begin as a single pushchair and have adapters to add a second seat, carrycot or car seat which makes them an ideal choice for growing families. Some, like the iCandy Orange offer over 30 different seating configurations, meaning they can adapt to your family, as high as a 3rd child. Doubles are heavier than tri-folds however, because the weight is evenly distributed, they are much easier to move around. Folding The most effective double buggies for young children fold in a matter of seconds. This feature is adored by our Lab experts because they can fit the buggies into the back of their vehicles and save 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 accomplish with just one hand. The light Delta Children LX side by side is another excellent option for a double buggie. Its light weight is a plus but also the features it has: large pop-out canopies that include SPF 50 protection and a peekaboo window as well as swing-away bars to assist children to get into and out of seats; and reclined chair and leg rests for little ones. Manoeuvrability When selecting a compact double stroll, it's important to think about its maneuverability. This is a good indicator of how easy it is for both children to ride in the buggy. Some pushchairs are more efficient than others at this such as the iCandy Orange's “cinema chair” (where the back is elevated). Buggies with narrow tandems can be good at this, as are side-by-side designs. These buggies can be a bit larger and may be difficult to get through doorways. The UPPAbaby Vista 2 pushchair is a great example, as it's a comparatively compact model that can accommodate two additional seats and the most important thing is the pillion board, which can be used to accommodate a third child. Other smaller, three wheeled models, like the phil&teds Dot, are also extremely agile. This is particularly true with its clever “dot kit” that transforms it into an inline buggie. It has different seating options for children of varying ages and even allows the front seat to be turned to face the parents for optimum face-to-face time. It also comes with a storage basket and is easy to fold. This is a great option for families with growing children. Comfort Parents can keep both children in sight at the park, in the grocery store or wherever else using narrow tandem buggies or side-byside buggies. These lightweight doubles can accommodate two children up to 50 lbs per seat and come with spacious, pop-out canopies that extend far enough to offer real shade with peekaboo windows and padded leg rests for children to relax and kick back.
