What to Look For in a Compact Double Buggy

Kerry says that this side-byside is slim enough to fit through most doors and can accommodate two car seats or carrycots. It folds up self-standing and handy carry straps for easy schlepping.

It's also light to lift and wheel up/down stairs. The canopies are generously sized and feature peekaboo windows.

Size

Double buggy features you should look for include an enormous shopping basket, front and rear suspension, and strong frame. You might also want to consider whether it's a travel system or whether you can add an infant car seat or carrycot. These are crucial considerations if you're planning to bring your kids in public transport or on longer journeys.

If you're in search of a compact double buggy that can be used from birth take a look at the Leclerc Kooper X2. This side-by-side model features a clever frame that expands in width so that it can accommodate two children. The seats can be reclined and positioned independently. This lets you have one child relax and nap while the other one is watching the surroundings. You will get a huge UPF 50+ canopy that has an open window.

Another great option for infant twins is the Mountain Buggy Duet. This is the slimmest side-by-side twin pushchair on the market and is only 63cm wide, so should fit through most doorways. It can take two car seats or a carrycot, and comes with lying-flat seats that can be used from birth.

Tandem double buggies are very popular with parents of twins or who have a baby and a toddler. However, they do generally have a bigger footprint than single to double buggy-seaters and can be difficult to maneuver on narrow pavements or through doors.

The iCandy Orange is a popular tandem buggy that has been designed to adapt to your family, with 30 different seating options. It can be used with twins, a baby and toddler or even three kids if you add iCandy's 'PiggyBack' board (which you can buy separately). It has a soft suspension that makes light work of kerbs. It can be utilized in double or mono mode. It is possible to attach one stroller on top for additional storage.

Weight

A quality double buggy is light and easy to push. It should also have nice-sized shopping baskets, front and rear suspensions to make it easier to navigate rougher surfaces and, in the ideal case it is suitable for twins or siblings of various ages.

A lot of compact double buggies come with frames that are designed to fit infant car seats and come with branded adaptors to match the popular models from Cybex, BeSafe and Maxi-Cosi. These are a great option for parents of children with medical issues and would prefer not the need to purchase separate strollers.

They are typically larger than buggies that are side-by-side and are more difficult to fit in doorways or on public transport. Check the product details for alternatives for this if it is important to you and your family.

Mountain Buggy Duet is the smallest double stroller on the market. This is the slimmest side by side available at 64cm wide. It is suitable for twins who are just born or one toddler and one baby. It's a sturdy design and a superior function with big air-filled tires that can be used on all terrains but are also able to whizz around town.

Another great choice is the UPPAbaby Vista 2, which can hold twins or one toddler and one baby or two kids using piggy backboards (which you'll need to purchase separately). It folds up with a self-standing design and carry strap, making it a breeze to transport and it has both rear and front suspensions to help you cope with rough terrain. It's heavier than the Joie Evalite Duo, but lighter than the majority of trifold buggies. This is a great choice for older children.

Folding

A good double stroller needs to be slim for storage, and a good choice is the Baby Jogger City Select 2. This model is a side-by-side and has a smooth fold. The frame expands when you fold it, making it more compact than the standard stroller. This makes it much easier to navigate through doorways and public transport, while it also means that you don't require an additional car to push the buggy around.

It's a great choice for parents who have twins since it can be used in mono or duo mode with two seats and car seat adaptors. It can hold a third child on the 'piggybackboard of the buggy. It also has a wide range of configurations, including elevated stadium-style seats to give both children an overview of their surroundings. There's even a handbrake on the handlebar that can be adjusted which makes it easier to push up and down hills.

Mountain Buggy Duet is another excellent alternative. It has the smallest footprint side-by-side on the market, measuring 63cm. This makes it perfect for parents who are concerned about fitting an extra door for a double on public transport, and it can still handle rough terrain like an off-roader. It can be used to carry twins or a toddler and baby or two kids of the same age, and each seat can recline independently to ensure that the children are comfortable.

Another option is the iCandy Peach, which can be used in tandem or mono mode and can take 2 car seats/seats, or a carrycot and toddler seat. It's a bit longer than other doubles, but it is extremely maneuverable especially on smooth surfaces. This is an excellent choice for those who want a stylish and practical buggy.

If you're on a budget there are plenty budget double buggies, such as the UPPAbaby Vista 2. This is a small side-by-side that fits a newborn in a carrycot, the toddler in a seat, or even three kids when you add the brand-new pizazz PiggyBack ride-on board. It features a simple, self-standing fold and a nice big canopy that provides children some security and a peek-a-boo window. It's also fairly light for a double stroller, and has a large undercarriage basket to store things like shopping.
