Which Lightweight Double Pushchair Should You Buy?

It's easy to move around with a lightweight double pushchair, particularly if you have children of different ages. They are easy to fold, steer and carry up and over stairs.

This City Mini GT2 features side-by-side seating with plenty of legroom. It also has adjustable reclining, UPF 50+ canopy and peekaboo windows. It also has an expanding frame size to accommodate the second car seat or a second passenger.

Side-by-Side

The majority of light double pushchairs we tested are side-by-side models and are generally recommended for children who can stand up without assistance because they tend to be lacking car seat integration. That said there are some exceptions. Thule Urban Glide 2 Double and the Baby Trend Sit 'N Stand Double are both excellent options that offer adjustable recline in both seats, a large canopy, and padded 5-point harnesses. They are also simple to maneuver despite their bigger footprint. They are ideal for parents who are worried about fitting through doors.

The Cybex Duet pushchair is unique because it has a clever frame that can be expanded to add an additional child seat. This makes it lighter than other pushchairs with side-by-side seating. It can be pushed through standard doors and is easy to maneuver on public transport. It can also be used as a jogger, which is great news if you want to use it in conjunction with a baby carrier or infant car seat, and comes in a range of fun colors.

Another excellent side-by-side lightweight double is the UPPAbaby Vista v2 Double, which allows for even more flexibility and customization thanks to its modular frame. It has a smart design that lets you convert it into a single stroller or a double umbrella stroller by adding 2 carrycots or car seats (it can even accommodate twins). It is a practical option for families that are growing. The UPPAbaby umbrella stroller is one of the lightest, most stylish and most stylish available.

Try the egg2 which folds down to the size and weight of a compact suitcase. It can be used as a single double with the addition of 2 carrycots or infant car seats, and our home testers loved how simple and sleek it was to use even when stuffed with children.

Even though they are lightweight double pushchairs that sit side-by-side do not guarantee safety. If your children are of the same age and stage, they may still argue over who gets to sit in which position. If they are at different heights, a tandem style may be ideal for them as it lets them face each other.

Tandem

While side-by-side models are more appropriate for siblings of the same age, tandem lightweight double pushchairs offer their own perks. They can accommodate a larger car seat, and some even have reversible seats or an extra carrycot in the middle. They are larger and easy to get into and out of. However their baskets tend to be smaller than those on single buggies. They often have larger canopy, peekaboo windows and even cushioned leg cushions.

The iCandy Peach is another example of a good-value lightweight tandem. Its fabrics feel a little less premium than some of our other top-rated tandems, but it looks and feels great and is user-friendly. Its one-handed folding is awe-inspiring. Although it takes some practice, Kirstie from our Lab called it "genius". The carrycot cannot be folded while it's attached. However, the process to attach and remove the carrycot is simple and quick.

Tandem strollers that are lightweight typically have tighter turning capabilities than side-by-side models. However, they can be more difficult to drive on uneven surfaces or curbs. They may also be slightly slower to accelerate and can be heavier to move, which could cause strain on your back.

Another option is a convertible double buggy, which starts off as an individual and then you can add adapters to make it into a double. These can include the option of a second seat or carrycot on the front, or the children can sit side-by-side. Some have the option of including a buggyboard, which assists an older child to keep pace with a younger brother or sister.

The Uppababy Vista V2 can be converted into a twin pushchair-sized pram by purchasing additional cocoons for PS59 each. These cocoons create a flat space for newborns. They can be attached together or placed on top of each other. You can also use the car seat that came with the pushchair if it is compatible. These dual-use buggies are made of high-quality materials that can be used for a long time without showing any wear. This means they come with the highest resale value.

Single-to-Double

Ideal for families who love to be outdoors and are looking to upgrade from a single stroller, this lightweight double buggy turns into a jogger thanks an innovative kit that includes air-filled tyres, as well as all-wheel suspension. It is also a good option for twins, or children from different ages and as triple tandem, it can be able to handle the rough terrain. It's also a great choice for parents who want a stylish design that's as sleek as a single and comes in a variety of colors for the fabric.

This iCandy model is incredibly easy to fold using a one-handed system. And although it's heavier than the other single-to-double pushchairs in this review, home tester Karolina said that it still feels extremely maneuverable, even when she had two toddlers and a carrycot inside.

The seat can be used with the parent facing and you can purchase accessories for this stroller, such as the Roma Gemini carrycots (PS100 each), which are ideal for babies. Our test panel found the seats were comfortable for toddlers, with good lumbar support and headrests. And there are plenty of options for reclining and recline, with the front seat adjusting to various positions, and the rear seat offering the option to recline.

The biggest drawback with this kind of buggy is that it tends to be larger overall than the side-by-side doubles and makes it difficult to maneuver through doorways, and can be tricky to maneuver around kerbs. The suspension and wheels of these models tend to be able to deal with surfaces that are paved. They're also lighter than many side-by-sides, so you can still have plenty of storage space. It's important to remember that these types of strollers aren't as adept at getting through narrow aisles in supermarkets and can struggle to cope with a lot of shopping. Although it's much easier to turn the stroller on a narrow curved path, it can be a challenge. Some are more easy to turn than other models, like the Thule Urban Glide 2 Double or Baby Trend Sit N' Stand Double.

Convertible

The great thing about convertible double pushchairs is that they are able to adapt to a family's changing requirements. They are typically single buggies, but include adapters to add the second seat, a carrycot, or (in some cases) the car seat to the frame. Some even convert to a single as your older child begins to walk more or wants to ride on a buggy board.

This stylish tri-fold double single pushchair stroller is among of the lightest on our list. It can hold up to 40 lbs per child, and includes an integrated storage basket between the seats. Home users loved its large canopy with windows that peek out multi-position reclining seats, as well as front and rear suspensions for smoother rides on rough terrain. It also has an easy-to-use cup holder for parents and an ample, easily accessible basket. The backs of the bags have small double buggy pockets which are just sufficient to hold a phone and a set of keys.

This top-of-the-line, lightweight side-byside can be used in more than 20 configurations and comes with a second seat and carrycot. It features a high-profile steering handlebar, front and rear suspensions that smooth rough terrain, an ultra-compact fold that can stand on its own with straps for easy transport and seven-inch front wheels with swivel locks as well as ten-inch back wheels with suspensions for a smoother ride. The only drawback is that you'll need to buy a separate baby carrier or car seat.

This versatile tandem is the top choice of our home testers because it is easy to maneuver and has an enormous shopping basket that can be accessed from both seats when in the parent-facing positions. Its surprisingly lightweight weight (about the same as single pushchairs) makes it easy to maneuver. Its reversible seats mean that you can switch them around to face either direction and the clever method by which it can attach the second seat or riding board to the rear is highly praised by many. Parents also liked the fact that it can accommodate infant carriers and car seats from various brands, including some which aren't usually fit in other double buggies.
