5 Killer Quora Answers On Small Double Buggy

A Small Double Buggy That's Easy to Push One-Handed and Carry Up and Down Stairs

This is the double stroller for you if you want a lightweight stroller that is easy to push with one hand. It's also easy to transport up and down the stairs.

It comes with two fixed seats and up to 30 different seating configurations are possible (including a triangular one!). Both seats feature UPF 50+ canopy and peekaboo windows.

Size

The Joovy Kooper X2 is a double stroller that is side-by-side and can seat two children up to 50 lbs each. The seats are larger than similar strollers that are lightweight twin buggy and the canopy has large sunshades with SPF 50 that have peekaboo windows. Other key 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. This is a great option for urban and suburban 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. A lighter buggy is more easy to lift and carry however, it may not have as much suspension to withstand bumps and uneven terrain.

Make sure to read the specifications of each model before purchasing. Certain double buggies come with the capacity to hold a maximum weight of a person while others have a frame limit. Some models fold with the seats removed, making them smaller and lighter and compact, which is a great option when storage space is at an all-time low.

Tri-fold doubles are typically the lightest, since they require only one hand to lift the top and lower sections. They are also a bit smaller than buggies that are side by side and can be accessed through the majority of doors. The iCandy Geo 3 tri-fold double stroller with infant car seat is among the lightest on the market. It can comfortably accommodate twins or a toddler and baby.

Tandem buggies are initially one pushchair, but they come with adapters that allow you to add an additional seat, carrycot or car seat which makes them the ideal choice for expanding families. Some, such as the iCandy Orange offer over 30 different seating options, so they can expand with your family up to a 3rd child. Doubles are heavier than trifolds, however, because the weight is evenly distributed, they are easier to maneuver.

Folding

The most compact double buggies fold easily and can be folded in a matter of seconds. Our Lab experts love this feature as it helps them squeeze the buggies in the back of their car and save storage space when they are not in use. The Joovy Kooper X2 for example comes with straps that can be pulled up on the seats and the whole thing folds down. Even our most experienced testers could do this tri-fold in just one hand.

The light Delta Children LX Side by Side is another good choice for a small double buggie. Its light weight is a plus, but so are its key features such as large pop-out canopies that have SPF 50 and peekaboo windows, swing-away bars that aid children get in and out of the seats and reclining seats and leg rests designed for younger kids.

Manoeuvrability

One of the most important things to take into consideration when selecting a small double buggy is its maneuverability and how easy it is to get around with both children on board. Certain pushchairs are better than others at this such as the iCandy Orange's 'cinema seat' (where the back is elevated).

This is where narrow tandem buggies and side-by-side designs can come in useful. These buggies may be a bit longer and may be difficult to get through doorways.

The UPPAbaby Vista 2 is an excellent example, since it's a small pushchair that allows two seats to be added as well as an important feature - an 'piggyback'-style board that can accommodate a third child.

Other smaller, three-wheeled models, such as 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 arrangements for children of various age groups and the front seat can be turned to face the parents to create a more intimate bonding experience. It comes with an enormous storage basket that is easy to fold. It is a great option for families with growing children!

Comfort

Parents can keep both children within sight at the park, in the grocery store or wherever else using narrow tandem buggies or side-by-side buggies. These lightweight doubles can carry two children up to 50 pounds each and come with spacious, pop-out canopies that extend far enough to offer real shade with windows that peek out and padded leg rests for children to relax and kick back. The doubles also have a single parent cupholder and an adjustable cupholder on the seat back. They also come with a large underseat storage basket.

Add the phil&teds Double Kit to your dot buggy if you are beginning with a growing household.
