Size

Weight

The weight of double Buggy With carrycot buggies will determine the ease of pushing. A lighter buggy is easier to lift and carry but it might not have as much suspension to handle bumps and uneven terrain.

Check the specifications of each model before buying. Some double buggies come with an upper limit on the weight of the seats and others have an overall frame limit. Some also fold with the seats removed, making them even smaller and lighter this can be beneficial if storage space is at an all-time low.

Tri-fold doubles are usually the lightest of models, since they only require one hand to lift the top and lower sections. They're also narrower than side-by-side buggies, making them a good choice to fit through doors. The iCandy Geo 3 is one of the lightest tri-fold doubles on the market, and can comfortably accommodate twins or a toddler and a baby.

Tandem buggies are ideal for growing families because they start as a single stroller but can be adapted to include a second child such as a car seat or carrycot. Some, like the iCandy Orange, offer over 30 seating options, so they can expand with your family up to a third child. They are generally heavier than tri-fold doubles, but they're generally easier to move across kerbs due to the weight being distributed more evenly.

Folding

The best small double stroller double buggies fold up easily in a matter of seconds. This feature is well-loved by our Lab experts as it allows them to fit the buggies inside the back of their vehicles and save space when they're not in use. The Joovy Kooper X2 for example has straps that can be pulled up on each seat and the whole thing folds down. Even our most experienced testers could do this tri-fold with just one hand.

The lightweight Delta Children LX Side by Side is another good choice for a small double buggies. Its light weight is a plus, but so are its key features: nice-sized pop-out canopies with SPF 50 and peekaboo windows, swing-away bars to help little ones climb in and out of the seats; and reclined seats and leg rests for younger kids.

Manoeuvrability

When selecting a compact double stroller, you need to take into account its maneuverability. This is a good indicator of how easy it is for both children to be able to ride in the buggy. Some pushchairs are better than others at this such as the iCandy Orange's 'cinema seat' (where the back is elevated).

The narrow tandem buggies are good at this as can side-byside designs. These buggies can be a bit longer and could be difficult to get through doors.

The UPPAbaby Vista 2 is an excellent example of this, as it's a relatively small pushchair that allows for two seats to be added and the most important thing is the 'piggyback' board which can accommodate an additional child.

Other three-wheeled models like the phil&teds dot also incredibly agile, especially with its clever 'dot kits that transforms it into an inline buggy.
