10 Mobile Apps That Are The Best For Small Double Buggy
A Small Double Buggy That's Easy to Push One-Handed and Carry Up and Down Stairs
If you're looking for a light double stroller that you can push with one hand, and then take up and down steps This is the perfect model.
It has a pair fixed seats, and up to 30 different seating configurations are possible (including the triangular design!). Both seats have UPF 50+ canopies and peekaboo windows.
Size
The Joovy Kooper X2 is a side-by-side double stroller which can accommodate two children of at up to 50lbs each. The seats are larger large than other lightweight double tandem pushchair strollers and the canopy comes with nice-sized SPF 50 sunshades with windows that are peekaboo. Other notable features include a self-standing bin with capacity of 25 pounds cup holders for one parent and bars that swing away to help children get into and out their seats. It is a great choice for urban and suburban families. It is also newborn-ready with the double set which includes a wedgie for a lie-flat position.
Weight
The weight of a double buggies will determine its ease of pushing. A lighter buggy is easier to lift and carry, but might not have enough suspension to deal with bumps and uneven terrain.
Be sure to check the specifications of each model before you purchase. Some double buggies come with an upper limit on the weight of the seats while others have a frame limit. Some fold with seats removed, making them lighter and more compact, which can be useful when storage space is at the limit.
The tri-fold doubles are typically the lightest models as only one hand is required to lift the front and back sections. They're also narrower than side-by-side buggies, making them an ideal choice to fit through doors. The iCandy Geo 3 is one of the lightest tri-fold doubles on the market. It can comfortably accommodate twins or a toddler and a baby.
Tandem buggies are perfect for families that are growing because they begin as a single stroller and can be adapted to accommodate a second seat, car seat or carrycot. Some, like the iCandy Orange, offer over 30 seating options, so they can grow with your family until three children. They tend to weigh more than tri-fold doubles, but they're generally easier to move between kerbs due to the weight being distributed more evenly.
Folding
The best double buggies for small spaces fold up easily in a matter of minutes. Our Lab experts love this feature because it lets them squeeze the buggies into the back of their car and free up 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 trifold, which even our most compact double stroller experienced testers can accomplish with just one hand.
The lightweight Delta Children LX Side by Side is another good choice for a small double pram and pushchair buggies. Its lightweight weight is an advantage, but it also has some great features including large pop-out canopy with SPF 50 and peekaboo windows, swing-away bars to help children to climb into and out of the seats; and reclined seating and leg rests for younger children.
Manoeuvrability
When choosing a small double stroll, it's important to think about its maneuverability. This includes the ease for both children to be able to ride in the buggy. Some pushchairs, such as the iCandy Orange with its 'cinema seating' (where the back seat is elevated) are better at this than other models.
The narrow tandem buggies are excellent at this and so can side-by-side designs. However, they can be a bit longer overall and can be difficult to maneuver through doors.
The UPPAbaby Vista 2 pushchair is a great example, as it's a narrow model that allows for two additional seats, and the most important thing is an auxiliary board that can accommodate a third child.
Other smaller, three wheeled models, like the phil&teds Dot, are also incredibly flexible. This is especially true with its clever "dot kit" which transforms it into an inline buggie. It comes with two seating options for children of different ages, and the front seat can be turned to face the parents to create an intimate bonding experience. It also comes with a storage basket that is easy to fold. It is an excellent choice for families that are growing!
Comfort
With narrow tandem strollers, or versatile buggies that can be used side-by-side parents can monitor both children at the park, grocery store or anywhere else. These lightweight Double Stroller doubles can accommodate two children as much as 50 pounds per seat and come with generous pop-out canopy that extends enough to provide real shade, with windows that peek out and padded leg rests for the little ones to relax and kick back. They also come with cup holders for the seatback that are reversible, as well as a single parent cup holder and a large underseat basket.
