An Easy-To-Follow Guide To 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 that you need If you're looking for a light one-hand stroller that is easy to push. It's also easy to carry up and down the stairs.
It has two fixed seats, and up to 30 different seating configurations are possible (including a triangular one!). Both seats have UPF 50+ canopies with windows that peek out.
Size
The Joovy Kooper X2 double stroller is a side-by-side double stroller. It can hold two children who weigh up to 50lbs. Its seats are larger sized than those of other double strollers that are lightweight, and the canopies have spacious SPF 50 sunshades, with peekaboo windows. Other key features include a self-standing basket with a capacity of 25 lbs, 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 suburban and urban families. It also comes with a newborn-friendly the double set which includes a wedgie for a lie-flat position.
Weight
The weight of a double buggy is one of the most important factors that determine how easy it is to push. In general, a buggy that is light is more easy to lift and carry but it might not have enough suspension to deal with bumps and uneven terrain.
Make double pram pushchair to read the specifications of each model before buying. Some double buggies come with the capacity to hold a maximum weight of a person, while others have a frame limit. Some double buggies are able to fold with the seats removed, making them lighter and more compact. This is useful when you're limited on storage space.
Tri-fold doubles are typically the lightest models, as they only require a single hand to lift the top and lower sections. They are also narrower than buggies that are side by side and can be accessed through the majority of doorways. The iCandy Geo 3 tri-fold double is among the lighter models available. It can comfortably fit twins, or a toddler and baby.
Tandem buggies begin as a single pushchair but come with adapters that allow you to add a second seat, carrycot or car seat which makes them an ideal choice for growing families. Some, like the iCandy Orange offer over 30 different seating options, so they can adapt to your family, even with a third child. Doubles are heavier than trifolds, but because the weight is more evenly dispersed, they are more comfortable to move around.
Folding
The best double buggies for small spaces fold up easily in a matter of seconds. Our Lab experts appreciate this feature since it helps them squeeze the buggies into the back of their cars and save storage space when not in use. For instance the Joovy Kooper X2 has straps on each seat that are able to be pulled up, and the whole thing folds down -- it's a trifold, which even our most senior testers could accomplish with 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 however, it also has some great features: nice-sized pop-out canopies with SPF 50 and peekaboo windows, swing-away bars that help little ones get in and out of the seats and reclined seats and leg rests for smaller kids.
Manoeuvrability
When choosing a small double stroller, it is important to consider its maneuverability. This includes how easy it is for both children to be able to ride in the buggy. Certain pushchairs are better than others at this such as the iCandy Orange's 'cinema seat' (where the back is elevated).
This is the reason why narrow tandem buggies and side-by-side designs can be handy. However, these can be a bit longer overall and so may be difficult to maneuver through doorways.
The UPPAbaby Vista 2 pushchair is an excellent example, considering that it's a narrow model that allows for two additional seats and more importantly, an auxiliary board that can accommodate a third child.
Other smaller, three wheeled models, like the phil&teds Dot, are also incredibly agile. This is particularly true with its clever "dot kit" that transforms it into an inline buggie. It comes with different seating configurations that are suitable for children with different ages. It even allows the front seat to be turned to face parents, allowing for the ultimate face-to-face bonding. It has a large storage basket and is easy to fold. A great choice for families with growing children!
Comfort
Parents can keep both children in sight at the park, in the grocery store or anywhere else 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 enough to provide real shade. The doubles also have a single parent cupholder and an adjustable cupholder on the seatback. They also come with a large underseat storage basket.
If you're just beginning to build a growing family, add the double kit from phil&teds to your dot buggy to transform it into an inline double ideal for toddlers and infants alike. The clever 3-wheel design allows for easy kerb popping as well as superior maneuverability, and the sling seat is a great option for newborns to bond with their parents. When your little ones become older, simply swap the sling for an infant car seat adapter and you're good to go. You're now ready for your next adventure with luxury travel bag and rain cover included!
