Weight
The weight of double buggie will determine its ease of pushing. In general, a buggy that is light is easier to lift and transport but it might not have the suspension to deal with bumps and uneven terrain.
The majority of double buggies have an upper limit on the weight of each seat and some have overall frame maximums and it's important to know the specifics of each model prior to you buy. Some fold down with seats removed to make them even lighter and more compact and compact, which is a great option if storage space is at a premium.
The tri-fold doubles are generally the lightest models as only one hand is required to lift the front and back sections. They're also narrower than side-by-side buggies, which makes them ideal to fit through doors. The iCandy Geo 3 tri-fold double is among the lightest on the market. It is able to comfortably accommodate twins, or a toddler and baby.
Tandem buggies start out as one pushchair, but they come with adapters to accommodate an additional seat, carrycot or car seat they are an ideal choice for growing families. Some, such as the iCandy Orange offer over 30 different seating configurations, so they can expand with your family, with a third child. Doubles are heavier than tri-folds however, because the weight is evenly dispersed, they are more comfortable to move around.
Folding
The best small double buggies fold up easily, in just a few seconds.

For example, the Joovy Kooper X2 has straps on each seat that can be pulled up and the whole thing folds down -- it's a trifold that even our oldest testers could accomplish with just one hand.
The lightweight Delta Children LX side by side is another excellent option for double buggie. Its lightweight 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 aid children to climb into and out of the seats; and reclined seating and leg rests for smaller children.
Manoeuvrability
When choosing a small double stroller, it is important to think about its maneuverability. This includes the ease for both children to ride in the buggy. Some pushchairs, for instance the iCandy Orange with its 'cinema seating' (where the back seat is elevated) are better at this than others.
This is the reason why narrow tandem buggies and side-by-side designs can come in handy. These buggies can be a bit longer and may be difficult to navigate through doors.
The UPPAbaby Vista 2 pushchair is a great example, as it is a relatively narrow model that allows for two additional seats, and more importantly, the pillion board, which can be used to accommodate a third child.
Other smaller, three-wheeled models, like the phil&teds Dot are also incredibly agile. This is particularly the case with its clever "dot kit" that transforms it into an inline buggie. This has a couple of different seating configurations for kids with different ages. It even allows the front seat to be turned to face parents, allowing for the ultimate face-to-face bonding time. It also comes with a storage basket and is easy to fold. This is a great option for families that are growing.
