Weight
The weight of a double buggie will determine its ease of pushing. A lighter buggy is simpler to lift and carry, but may not have enough suspension to handle bumps and uneven terrain.
Most double buggies come with the capacity to hold a maximum weight for each seat, and some have overall frame weight limits, so it's important to know the specifics of each model prior to making a buy. Certain double buggies can be folded with the seats removed, which makes them smaller and lighter. This is useful in cases where you have limited storage space.
Tri-fold doubles are usually the lightest, since they require only one hand to lift the back and lower sections. They are also smaller than side-by-side buggies, which makes them ideal to fit through doorways. The iCandy Geo 3 tri-fold double is one of most lightweight on the market. It can comfortably fit twins, or a toddler and baby.

Manoeuvrability
When choosing a small double stroller, it is important to consider its maneuverability. This includes the ease for both children to be able to ride in the buggy. Certain pushchairs, like the iCandy Orange with its 'cinema seating' (where the back seat is elevated) are better at this than others.
Buggies with narrow tandems can be excellent at this and so can side-by-side designs. Buggies with this type of design can be a little longer and could be difficult to navigate 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 the most important thing is an auxiliary board that can be used to accommodate a third child.
Other smaller, three-wheeled models, such as the phil&teds Dot are also extremely flexible. This is especially the case with its clever "dot kit" which transforms it into an inline buggie.
