Size
The Joovy Kooper X2 is a double stroller that is side-by-side and can accommodate two children of up to 50 lbs each. Its seats are larger bigger than those of other lightweight double strollers, and the canopies have nice-sized SPF 50 sunshades with windows that are peekaboo. 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 in and out of their seats. This is a great option for urban and suburban families. It also comes with a double kit that includes the newborn's wedgie to ensure an optimum lie-flat position.
Weight
The weight of a double buggy is among the most important factors that determine how easy it is to push. A lighter buggy will be more easy to lift and carry but it might not have the suspension to handle bumps and uneven terrain.
Check the specifications of each model carefully before purchasing. Some double buggies have an upper limit on the weight of the seats and others have a frame limit. Some double buggies are able to fold with the seats removed, making them lighter and smaller. This is helpful if you are limited on storage space.
Tri-fold doubles are generally the lightest, since they only require a single hand to lift the top and bottom sections. They are also narrower than buggies that are side by side and can fit through most doors. The iCandy Geo 3 is one of the lightest tri-fold doubles available on the market and can comfortably accommodate twins or a toddler and a baby.
Tandem buggies are ideal for families that are growing because they start as a single stroller but can be adapted to include a second child such as a car seat or carrycot. Some models, such as the iCandy Orange, offer over 30 seating configurations, meaning they can adapt to your family until three children. These doubles are heavier than tri-folds, but because the weight is evenly dispersed, they are more comfortable to maneuver.
Folding
The most compact double buggies fold up easily, in a matter of minutes. This feature is appreciated by our Lab experts because they can fit the buggies into the back of their cars and conserve space when not being used. The Joovy Kooper X2 for example includes straps that can be pulled up on the seats and the whole thing folds down. Even our oldest testers were able to fold this tri-fold with just one hand.
The light Delta Children LX Side by Side is a good alternative for a compact double buggie. Its lightweight weight is an advantage however, so are its key features such as large pop-out canopies that have SPF 50 and peekaboo windows, swing-away bars to help youngsters climb in and out of the seats and reclined seating and leg rests for younger kids.
Manoeuvrability
When selecting a compact double stroll, it's important to think about its maneuverability. visit this website link includes the ease for both children to be able to ride in the buggy. Certain pushchairs are better than others, including the iCandy Orange's "cinema chair" (where the back is elevated).
Narrow tandem buggies can be good at this as can side-byside designs. However, these can be a bit longer overall, and therefore could be difficult to navigate through doorways.
The UPPAbaby Vista 2 is an excellent example of this as it's a relatively compact pushchair that allows two seats to be added, and - importantly - the 'piggyback' board which can be used to carry a third child.
Other smaller, three-wheeled models, such as the phil&teds Dot, are also extremely agile. This is especially the case with its clever "dot kit" that transforms it into an inline buggie. It offers two seating options for children of various age groups, and the front seat can be turned so that it faces the parents to create a more intimate bonding experience. It has an ample storage basket and is easy to fold. This is a great solution for families that are growing.
Comfort
Parents can keep both children in sight at the park, grocery store or anywhere else with narrow tandem buggies or side-by-side buggies. These lightweight doubles can accommodate two children up to 50 lbs each. They also come with pop-out canopy that can be extended far enough to give shade. They also have convenient reversible seatback cup holders and one cup holder for parents as well as a huge underseat basket.
Add the phil&teds Double Kit to your dot buggy if you are just beginning to build an expanding family. It will transform it into a double-inline stroller that is ideal for both newborns and toddlers.
