Which Lightweight Double Pushchair Should You Buy?

It's easy to move around in a light double pushchair, especially if you have children with different age groups. They are easy to fold, steer and carry up and down the stairs.

This City Mini GT2 offers side-by-side seats with plenty of legroom with adjustable reclining, as well as huge UPF 50+ canopies with windows that peek out. It also has an expanding frame width to accommodate a second car seat or a second passenger.

Side-by-Side

The majority of lightweight double pushchairs that we test are side-byside models and are best suited for children that can sit up on their own because they aren't equipped with car seat integration. The Thule Urban Glide 2 Double, and Baby Trend Sit 'N Stand double buggy that converts to single, are both excellent options. They offer recline adjustments for both seats, a huge canopy, and padded 5-point safety harnesses. They're also easy to maneuver despite their larger footprints, and are ideal for parents who are worried about fitting through doorways.

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 slimmer than other pushchairs that are side-by-side. This means it fits through doors that are standard and is easy to maneuver on public transportation. It can also be used as an jogger which is perfect if you plan to use it in conjunction with an infant car seat or baby carrier.

Another fantastic side-by-side light double is the UPPAbaby Vista v2 Double, that offers more flexibility and customization thanks to its modular frame. It features a clever design that allows you to transform it into a single buggy or a double by incorporating 2 carrycots or car seats (it can even take twins). It's a great option for families that are growing. The UPPAbaby umbrella stroller is also one of the lightest double stroller, sexiest and fashionable strollers you can find.

If you prefer a more compact lightweight double, try the egg2 that folds down to the size of a tiny suitcase. It can be used as a single or double with the addition of two carrycots or infant car seats and our home testers loved how sleek and simple it was to carry even when loaded with children.

Side-by-side lightweight double pushchairs aren't foolproof, though -If your children are the same age or stage they may still fight over who rides in which seat. If they're taller than each other, a tandem style might be better for them, as it will allow them to confront each other.

Tandem

While side-by-side models are more suitable for siblings with similar ages tandem pushchairs are light and lightweight, and are a different kind of pushchair with their own appeal. They can accommodate a larger car seat, and some have reversible seats or an extra carrycot that is located in the middle. They are larger and are easier to get into and out of. However the baskets they use tend to be smaller than the ones found on single buggies. Many have larger canopies with windows that peek out and padding for the leg cushions.

The iCandy Peach is another example of a lightweight and affordable tandem. The fabrics are a little less luxurious than those of some of our top-rated doubles. However, it looks stunning and is easy to use. Its one-handed folding is impressive. Even though it requires some time to master, Kirstie from our Lab called it "genius". It's not possible to fold it with the carrycot attached however the mechanism for attaching and removing it is simple and quick.

Tandem strollers that are lightweight typically have tighter turning capabilities than side-byside models. However, they could be difficult to drive on uneven surfaces and curbs. They are also slower to accelerate and more heavy to move. This puts strain on your back.

A convertible double buggy is a different option. It's initially a single however, you can add adapters to convert it into double. These can include a second seat or carrycot on the front or children can sit n stand double stroller side-by-side. Some also have the option to add buggy boards that could help an older child keep up with a younger sibling.

The Uppababy Vista V2 is a great example of a convertible since it can be converted into a twin pram by the purchase of additional cocoons (PS59 each) which create a lay-flat area for infants. They can be attached together or placed in a row. You can also use the car seat that came with the pushchair when it's compatible. These buggies with dual-use capabilities are made from high-quality materials and can be used for many years without showing any wear. This means that they have an excellent resale value.

Single-to-Double

Ideal for families who love to be outdoors and want to upgrade their single stroller, this light double buggy turns into a jogger thanks to an impressive kit that comes with air-filled tyres and all-wheel suspension. It's also a great option for twins or children of different age groups and as a triple tandem, it is able to take on rough terrain. It's a great option for parents who want a chic design that is as simple as a single. It comes in different fabric colours.

We loved the way that this iCandy model folds down with just one hand, making it really simple to master. And although it's heavier than some of the other single-to-double pushchairs in this review, our home tester Karolina said that it still feels very maneuverable - even when she had two toddlers and a carrycot.

The seat can be used parent-facing and you can purchase accessories for this stroller like the Roma Gemini carrycots (PS100 each) which are great for babies. The seats are comfortable for toddlers and come with good headrests and lumbar support. There are many options for reclined seats and the front seat is can be adjusted to different positions, and the back seat also having a reclining option.

This kind of buggy has the main disadvantage of being a bit wider than side-byside doubles. This makes it difficult to maneuver through doorways, and it can be difficult to move up and down 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-bysides, so you can still get a lot of storage. It's important to keep in mind that these strollers aren't as good at getting through narrow aisles in supermarkets, and may struggle to handle a lot of shopping. Even though it's easier to turn the stroller around on a narrow, curving path, it can be a challenge. Some are easier to turn than others models, like the Thule Urban Glide 2 Double or the Baby Trend Sit N' Stand Double.

Convertible

The great thing about convertible double pushchairs is that they can adapt to changing family needs. They often start out as single buggies, but come with adapters to add an additional seat, carrycot or (in certain cases) a car seat to the frame. Some can even convert back to a single buggie when your child gets older and starts to walk or prefers to ride on a buggy board.

One of the lightest Double Stroller double strollers on our list, this stylish tri-fold model can carry children up to 40 lbs each and features a handy basket in between the seats for storage. Home testers appreciated its large canopy with windows that peek out, multi-position reclining seats and front and rear suspension for smoother rides on rough terrain. It also comes with a handy parent cup holder and a large, easy-to access basket. However, they noticed that the backs of the seats have small pockets that are not big enough to accommodate anything more than a smartphone and keys.

This high-end, lightweight side-by-side is available in more than 20 different configurations. It also comes with a second seat and carrycot. It has a distinctive steering handlebar, rear and front suspensions to smooth rough terrain and it folds compactly and can be folded up with straps for easy transportation, and seven-inch front wheel with swivel locks and ten-inch back wheels with suspensions to ensure a smoother ride. The only drawback is that you'll have to purchase a separate car seat or baby carrier.

This multi-functional tandem is the top pick of our home testers due to the fact that it is simple to maneuver and features a large basket for shopping that is accessible from both seats when they are in the parent-facing position. It is easy to maneuver due to its light weight (about the equivalent of some single pushchairs). Many people praise the clever way it connects the second seat or riding board in the back. Parents also liked the fact that it can accommodate infant carriers and car seats from multiple brands, including some that don't normally fit in other double buggies.
