Which Lightweight Double Pushchair Should You Buy?

A light double pushchair makes it simple to move around, especially for families with children of various age groups. They're generally easy to steer, fold and transport up and down the stairs.

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

Side-by-Side

The majority of the lightweight double pushchairs that we tested are side-by-side models and are best suited for kids who can sit up unassisted since these models tend to be lacking car seat integration. The Thule Urban Glide 2 Double, and Baby Trend Sit 'N Stand Double, are both excellent choices. They offer adjustable recline for both seats, a big canopy, and padded five-point safety harnesses. They're also easy to move despite their larger footprint and are great for parents who worry about fitting through doors.

The Cybex Duet pushchair is unique because it features a unique frame that expands in width to accommodate another child seat. This makes it lighter than other pushchairs with side-by-side seating. This means it fits through doors that are standard and is easy to maneuver on public transport. It also doubles as an jogger which is perfect if you plan to use it with an infant car seat or carrier.

Another great side-by-side, lightweight double is the UPPAbaby Vista v2 Double, that offers more customization through a modular frame. It's a clever design that lets you turn it into a single stroller or a double with the addition of 2 carrycots or car seats (it can even accommodate twins). It's a fantastic and practical choice for growing families and the UPPAbaby is among the tiniest and most compact double stroller fashionable umbrella strollers around.

If you're looking for a more compact lightweight double, try the egg2 which folds down to the size of a tiny suitcase. It can be used as a single or double by adding 2 carrycots or infant car seats, and our home testers were awed by the sleek and easy it was to handle, even when fully loaded with children.

Side-by-side pushchairs double that are lightweight aren't 100% foolproof, however- if your children are at the same age or stage they might still argue over who rides in which seat. And if they're different heights, a tandem style might be better for them as it allows them to confront each other.

Tandem

While side-byside models are better suited to siblings of similar age, tandem lightweight double strollers have their own charms. They can accommodate a larger car seat, and some come with convertible seats or an additional carrycot in the middle. They are larger and are easier to get in and out of. However the baskets they use tend to be smaller than the ones found on buggies that are single. They often have larger canopy as well as peekaboo windows, and even padding for the leg cushions.

The iCandy Peach tandem is another excellent example of a light tandem that provides great value. The fabrics are a little less expensive than some of our top-rated doubles. But, it looks fantastic and is simple to use. Its one-handed folding is impressive. While it requires some practice, Kirstie from our Lab called it "genius". The carrycot is not foldable when it is 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-byside models. However, they could be harder to drive on uneven surfaces and curbs. They are also slower to accelerate and are heavier to move. This can put strain on your back.

Another option is a convertible double buggy, which starts off as a single and then you add adapters to turn it into a double. This can include a second seat or carrycot in front or children can be seated side-byside. Some have the option of adding a buggyboard, which helps an older child keep pace with a younger brother or sister.

The Uppababy Vista V2 can be converted into a twin-sized pram by purchasing additional cocoons for PS59 each. The cocoons create an area that is flat for newborns. They can be joined or placed side-by-side. You can also use the car seat that was included with the pushchair, in the event that it is compatible. These buggies with dual-use capabilities are made of high-quality materials and can be used for many years without showing any wear. This means they have an excellent resale value.

Single-to-Double

This compact double pushchair from birth buggy was designed for outdoor-loving family who would like 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 is also a good option for twins, or children from different ages and, as triple tandem, it can handle rough terrain. It's a great choice for parents who want a stylish design as elegant as a single. It comes in different fabric colours.

We were impressed by the way this iCandy model folds down with a one-handed mechanism that's extremely simple to master. It's heavier than other single-to-double pushchairs, however our home tester Karolina says it's still very maneuverable even with two toddlers and a carrycot.

You can buy add-ons such as the Roma Gemini Carrycots (PS100) which are great for babies. Our test panel found the seats to be comfortable for toddlers, with good headrests and lumbar support. There are many options to recline the seats and the front seat is can be adjusted to different positions, and the back seat having a reclining option.

This type of buggy comes with the main disadvantage of being larger than the side-by-side doubles. This makes it difficult to maneuver through doorways and it can be difficult to move up and down kerbs. The wheels and suspension of these strollers are generally good at coping with surfaces that are paved. They're also lighter than many side-by-sides which means you can get a lot of storage. It's important to keep in mind that these types of strollers aren't as good at walking through the narrow aisles of supermarkets and can struggle to cope with a lot of shopping. It's a little easier to turn them around on the smallest curves of paths however, it can be difficult to turn them around on a straight path. Some are easier to turn than others, such as the Thule Urban Glide 2 Double or Baby Trend Sit N' Stand Double.

Convertible

The benefit of convertible double pushchairs is the ability to adapt to the changing family needs. They typically start as single buggies, but have adapters that allow you to add an additional seat, a carrycot or (in some instances) a car seat to the frame. Some can even convert back to a single when your child gets older and starts to walk or prefers to ride on a buggy board.

This stylish tri-fold double stroller is one of the lightest strollers on our list. It can hold up to 40 pounds per child and has a storage basket between the seats. Home testers appreciated its spacious canopy that has windows that can be seen from the outside multi-position reclining seats, as well as front and rear suspensions to ensure smoother rides on rough terrain. It also has a handy cup holder for the parent as well as an enormous accessible, easily accessible basket. However, they noted that the backs of the seats have small pockets that aren't big enough to hold more than a phone and keys.

This top-of-the-line, lightweight side-byside can be used in more than 20 different configurations and comes with an additional seat and carrycot. Its impressive feature set includes a high-profile handlebar for easier steering and a rear and front 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 back wheels with suspension to provide a more comfortable ride. The only drawback is that you'll need purchase a separate baby carrier or car seat.

This multi-functional tandem is a top pick among our home testers for its maneuverability and large shopping basket, which can be accessed with both seats facing the parent. It is simple to move around due to its light weight (about the weight of a few single to double stroller pushchairs). Many people praise the clever way it connects the second seat or riding board at the back. Parents also liked the fact that it can accommodate infant carriers and car seats from various brands, including those which aren't usually fit into other double buggies.
