Which Lightweight Double Pushchair Should You Buy?

It's easy to move around in the lightweight double pushchair especially if you have kids of different age groups. They're typically simple to fold, steer, and transport up and down stairs.

This City Mini GT2 features side-by-side seating with plenty of legroom. It also has adjustable reclining, UPF 50+ canopies and windows that peek out. It also has an expanding frame the width to accommodate the second car seat or an additional passenger.

Side-by-Side

The majority of the light double pushchairs we tried were side-by-side models. These are the best double stroller for children who can stand up without assistance, since they tend to lack compatibility with car seats. That said they do have a few advantages. Thule Urban Glide 2 Double and Baby Trend Sit 'N Stand Double are both great options that provide adjustable recline in both seats, a huge canopy and padded 5-point harnesses. They're also easy to move despite their larger footprint and are perfect for parents who worry about fitting into doorways.

The Cybex Duet pushchair is unique because it features a unique frame that expands in width to allow for another child seat. This makes it lighter than other pushchairs that are side-by-side. This means it can fit through standard doors and is easy to move around on public transport. It also doubles as a jogger which is a great feature if you want to use it with an infant carrier or car seat, and comes in a range of fun colors.

The UPPAbaby Vista v2 double is another excellent lightweight side-by-side double. It provides even more customization thanks to the modular frame. The innovative design allows you to convert it into a single or double buggy by adding two carrycots or child car seats. It can even accommodate twins. It is a practical option for families that are growing. The UPPAbaby umbrella stroller is also one of the lightest double stroller, most fashionable and most stylish available.

Try the egg2 which folds down to the size and weight of a compact suitcase. It can be used either as a single or double by adding 2 carrycots or baby car seats. Our home testers were amazed by the ease of maneuver, even with a full load of children.

Although they're light, double pushchairs that are side-by-side are not foolproof. If your children are at the same age and stage, they could be fighting over who gets to sit in which seat. If they're at different heights, a tandem model could be better for them as it will allow them to confront each other.

Tandem

While side-byside models are more for children of similar age, tandem lightweight double strollers come with distinct appeals. Some can accommodate a larger car seat and others come with reversible seats. Some even come with an additional carrycot or convertible seat in the middle. They are generally more spacious and easier to move into and out of, although their baskets tend to be smaller than the ones on single buggies. Many feature larger canopies, peekaboo windows and even cushioned leg cushions.

The iCandy Peach is another example of a lightweight and affordable tandem. The fabric is a bit less luxurious than those of some of our top-rated doubles. But, it looks great and is easy to use. One of the most impressive aspects about it is the one-handed fold. While it requires practice, Kirstie in our Lab has said it's "genius". It can't be folded with the carrycot attached, however the mechanism for attaching and removing it is simple and quick.

Tandem lightweight double pushchairs will generally have tighter turns than side-by-side models however they are more challenging to drive over bumps and uneven surfaces. They are also slower to accelerate and more heavy to move. This can put strain on your back.

A convertible double buggy is a different option. It starts out as one however, you can add adapters to convert it into a cheap double buggy. This can include the option of a second seat or carrycot in front or the kids can sit side-by-side. Some may 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 is a excellent example of a convertible since it can be converted into a twin pram by the purchase of additional cocoons (PS59 each) that provide a flat area for infants. They can be placed side by side or attached to one another and you can use them with the baby car seat that comes with the pushchair (as as long as you select a compatible one). Because they're made from high-quality materials, these types of buggies with dual-use capabilities can be used for many years without showing any wear, meaning they have an excellent resale value.

Single-to-Double

This light double buggy is designed for families who love the outdoors and are looking to upgrade from an individual-stroller. It can be transformed into a jogger with the kit that comes with air-filled tires as well as all-wheel suspension. It's also a great option for twins or children from different ages, and as a triple tandem, it is able to handle rough terrain. It's a great option for parents who want a stylish style that's as sleek as a single and comes in various colors of fabric.

This iCandy model is very easy to fold with a one-handed system. It's heavier than other single-to-double pushchairs, but our home test Karolina says it's very mobile even with two toddlers inside and carrying a carrycot.

The seat can be used with the parent facing and you can purchase additional accessories for this stroller like the Roma Gemini carrycots (PS100 each) that are perfect for infants. Our test panel found that the seats to be comfortable for toddlers, with excellent headrests and lumbar support. And there are many options for reclining and recline, with the front seat being able to be adjusted to different positions and the rear seat having a recline option.

The main drawback to 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 is difficult to manoeuvre up and down kerbs. However the suspension and wheels on these models generally are capable of dealing with pavements and the fact that they're generally lighter than the side-by-sides means you can still find plenty of storage space. It's worth bearing in mind that strollers of this type aren't as adept at walking through the narrow aisles of supermarkets and aren't able to cope with a lot of shopping. It's a little easier to turn them around even on the smallest of curving paths, but even this can be difficult. Some are also more easy to turn than others, such as the Thule Urban Glide 2 Double and Baby Trend Sit N' Stand Double, for instance.

Convertible

The benefit of convertible double pushchairs is the ability to adapt to the changing family needs. They are typically single buggies, but come with adapters to add an additional seat, a carrycot, or (in some instances) an automobile seat to the frame. Some can be converted to a single when your older child starts to walk or prefers to ride a buggyboard.

One of the lightest double strollers on our list, this fashionable tri-fold model is able to hold children as heavy as 40 pounds each. It also has a convenient basket that can be placed between the seats for storage. The large canopy with a peekaboo window, multi-position reclining seats as well as front and back suspensions to ensure smoother rides on rough terrain were praised by testers at home. It also has a convenient parent cup holder and a large, easy-to-access basket. The backs have small pockets, that are just big enough to fit a phone and keys.

This lightweight, high-end side-by-side is available in more than 20 models. It also includes a second chair and carrycot. Its impressive set of features includes an ergonomic handlebar with a high profile for better steering; front and rear suspension to smooth rough terrain; a self-standing, compact fold with handy straps for easy schlepping and seven-inch swing lock front wheels and 10-inch rear wheels with suspension to provide a more comfortable ride. The only drawback is that you'll need to purchase a separate baby carrier or car seat.

This multi-functional tandem is the top choice of our home testers due to the fact that it is easy to maneuver and comes with an enormous shopping basket that is accessible from both seats when they are in the parent-facing positions. It is simple to maneuver due to its low weight (about the weight of a few single pushchairs). Many people praise the clever method of attaching the second seat or riding board to the back. Parents also admired the fact that it can accommodate infant carriers and car seats from various brands. This includes a few that aren't normally compatible with other double buggies.
