Size
The Joovy Kooper X2
stokke double stroller stroller is a side by side double stroller. It can hold two children up to 50lbs. The seats are larger than similar
twin strollers for newborns that are lightweight and the canopies feature large SPF 50 sunshades with windows that peek out. Other features that are important include a self-standing basket with the capacity of 25lbs cup holders for one parent and bars that swing away to help children get into and out their seats. It's a great choice for suburban and urban families. It also comes with a newborn-friendly the double set which includes a wedgie to help you sleep in a lying-flat position.
Weight
The weight of a double buggy is among the main factors that determine the ease to push. Typically, a light buggy is easier to lift and carry however, it may not have enough suspension to withstand bumps and uneven terrain.
Most double buggies have an upper limit on the weight of each seat and some have total frame weight limits, so it's important to verify the specifications of each model prior to making a buy. Some double buggies can be folded with seats removed, making them smaller and lighter. This is helpful if you are limited on storage space.
Tri-fold doubles are generally the lightest models, as they require only one hand to lift the back and lower sections. They are also smaller than buggies with side-by-side sides and can be accessed through the majority of doors. The iCandy Geo 3 tri-fold double is among the lightest on the market. It is able to comfortably accommodate twins, or a toddler and baby.
Tandem buggies are initially a single pushchair but come with adapters to accommodate a second seat, carrycot or car seat which makes them a great option for growing families. Some models, like the iCandy Orange, offer over 30 seating configurations, meaning they can adapt to your family to accommodate a third child. They tend to be heavier than tri-fold doubles. However, they're generally easier to move up and down kerbs thanks to the weight being evenly distributed.
Folding
The best double buggies designed for small children fold up in seconds. Our Lab experts appreciate this feature as it helps them to fit the buggies in the back of their cars and also save storage space when they are not in use. The Joovy Kooper X2 for example includes straps that can be pulled up over each seat and the entire thing folds down. Even our most experienced testers could do this tri-fold with just one hand.
The light Delta Children LX Side by Side is another great option for a compact double buggie. Its light weight is a plus however, so are its key features 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 aspects to take into consideration when selecting the right size
double buggy is its manoeuvrability, particularly how it is easy to move around with two children on board. Certain pushchairs are better than others at this and include the iCandy's "cinema chair" (where the back is elevated).
This is where narrow tandem buggies as well as side-by-side designs come in handy. These buggies may be a bit larger and may be difficult to maneuver through doors.
The UPPAbaby Vista 2 pushchair is an excellent example, considering that it's a comparatively narrow model that allows for two additional seats and - most importantly - a pillion board that can accommodate a third child.
Other models with three wheels like the phil&teds dot extremely agile, particularly with its clever 'dot kits that transforms it into an inline buggie. It comes with two seating arrangements for children of different ages and the front seat can be rotated so that it faces the parents to create more intimate bonding. It also comes with a fantastic storage basket that is easy to fold. This is a great solution for families with growing children.
