Thule Urban Glide 2 Double and the Baby Trend Sit 'N Stand Double are both top choices that have recline that can be adjusted in both seats, a wide canopy and padded 5-point harnesses.

Side-by-side lightweight double pushchairs aren't foolproof, though -- if your children are of the same age or at the same stage, they might be fighting over who is allowed to ride in which seat. If they're at different heights, then the tandem model could be ideal for them as it allows them to face eachother.

Tandem

While side-byside models might be more appropriate for siblings with similar ages, tandem lightweight double pushchairs offer their own perks. Some can accommodate a larger car seat and some have Reversible seats. Others even have an additional carrycot or reclined seat that can be flipped in the middle. They are bigger, and easier to get in and out of. However the baskets they use tend to be smaller than those 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 great value lightweight tandem. The fabric is a bit less expensive than some of our top-rated doubles. But, it looks stunning and is easy to use. One of the most impressive aspects about it is the one-handed fold. While it will require some practice, Kirstie in our Lab has said it's "genius". The carrycot is not foldable while it is attached. However, the mechanism to attach and remove the carrycot is quick and easy.

Some can even convert back to a single buggie when your child grows older and begins to walk more or wants to ride on buggy boards.

It is simple to maneuver thanks to its light weight (about the equivalent of some single pushchairs). The seats are reversible, which means that you can flip them to face either direction and the clever method by which it can attach a second seat or riding board to the rear is highly praised by many.
