Weight

The tri-fold doubles tend to be the lightest, since only one hand is required to lift the lower and back sections. They are also narrower than side by side buggies and are able to fit through most doors. The iCandy Geo 3 is one of the lightest trifold doubles on the market, and can comfortably hold twins or a toddler and a baby.

Tandem buggies begin as a single to double stroller pushchair but come with adapters to accommodate a carrycot, a second seat or car seat which makes them a great option for growing families.

Doubles are heavier than tri-folds however, because the weight is more evenly dispersed, they are more comfortable to move around.

Folding

Manoeuvrability

When choosing a small double buggy sale stroller, you need to think about its maneuverability. This includes how easy it is for both children to travel in the best twin buggy. Some pushchairs are more efficient than others such as the iCandy Orange's 'cinema seat' (where the back is elevated).

Narrow tandem buggies can be excellent at this and so can side-by-side designs. These buggies may be a bit longer and can be difficult to maneuver through doors.

The UPPAbaby Vista 2 is an excellent example of this since it's a small pushchair that allows two seats to be added, and an important feature - a 'piggyback' board that can carry an additional child.

Other smaller, three wheeled models, like the phil&teds Dot are also incredibly flexible. This is particularly true with its clever "dot kit" which transforms it into an inline buggie.
