Size

The Joovy Kooper X2 double stroller is a side by side double infant strollers stroller. It can be used by two children up to 50 pounds. The seats are larger than the other double strollers with lightweights and the canopies feature large sunshades with SPF 50 with peekaboo windows. Other key features include cup holders for one parent and an enormous, self-standing basket that can hold up to 25 pounds; swing-away bar for children to get out and in their seats and the front wheels that swivel lock for better manoeuvrability on tough terrain. It is a great option for urban and suburban families. It also comes with the double kit which includes the newborn's wedgie to ensure the best position to lie flat.

Weight

The weight of a double buggy is among the most important factors that determine the ease to push. A lighter buggy is simpler to lift and carry but might not have enough suspension to deal with bumps and uneven terrain.

Check the specifications of each model carefully before purchasing. Certain double buggies have a maximum seat weight, while others have an overall frame limit. Some double stroller with infant car seat buggies can be folded with seats removed, making them smaller and lighter. This is useful if you are limited on storage space.

The tri-fold doubles are typically the lightest of models since only one hand is needed to lift the bottom and back sections. They are also smaller than buggies that are side by side 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 hold twins or a toddler and a baby.

Tandem buggies are initially a single twin pushchair and have adapters that allow you to add a carrycot, a second seat or car seat, making them the ideal choice for expanding families. Some, like the iCandy Orange, offer over 30 seating configurations, meaning they can expand with your family up to a third child. They are generally heavier than tri-fold doubles, however they're usually easier to move up and down kerbs thanks to the weight being distributed more evenly.

Folding

The most compact double buggy side by side buggies fold easily and can be folded in a matter of minutes. This feature is adored by our Lab experts since they can fit the buggies in the back of their cars and conserve space when not being used. The Joovy Kooper X2 for example has straps that can be pulled up over each seat and then the whole thing folds down. Even our oldest testers could do the tri-fold with only one hand.

The lightweight Delta Children LX side by side is another great choice for double buggie. Its lightness is an advantage but also the features it has: large pop-out canopies that have SPF 50 protection and the peek-a-boo window and swing-away bars that help youngsters get in and out of seats; and reclined chair and leg rests for young children.

Manoeuvrability

One of the most important things to take into consideration when selecting the right size double buggy is its maneuverability and how it is easy to move around with two children on board. Certain pushchairs, like the iCandy Orange with its 'cinema seating' (where the back seat is elevated) are better at this than others.

This is where narrow tandem buggies and side-by-side designs can be useful. However, they are more substantial overall and so may be tricky to maneuver through doorways.

The UPPAbaby Vista 2 pushchair is a great example, as it's a comparatively narrow model that allows for two additional seats, and - most importantly - a pillion board that can be used to accommodate a third child.

Other smaller, three-wheeled models such as the phil&teds Dot are also incredibly agile, especially with its clever 'dot kits which transforms it into an inline buggy. It has two different seating arrangements for children of different age groups and the front seat can be turned to face the parents for an intimate bonding experience. It comes with a large storage basket and is easy to fold. A great choice for families that are growing!

Comfort

Parents can keep both children in sight at the park, grocery store, or any other place with narrow tandem buggies or side-byside buggies. These lightweight doubles can 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 offer real shade. They also have convenient cup holders that can be reversible and placed on the seatback. They also have a single parent cup holder as well as a huge underseat basket.

If you're starting out with a growing family, you can add the double kit from phil&teds to your dot buggy to transform it into an inline double, ideal for toddlers and newborns alike. The innovative 3-wheel design allows for easy kerb popping and superior maneuverability, and the sling seat provides the perfect opportunity for babies to connect with their parents.
