Which Lightweight Double Pushchair Should You Buy?

It's easy to move around in a lightweight double pushchair, especially if you have kids of different age groups. They're typically simple to steer, fold and carry up and down 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 peekaboo windows. It also comes with a smart frame that can be expanded to accommodate a second seat and compatible car seat(s).

Side-by-Side

Most of the lightweight double pushchairs we tried were side-by-side models. These are the best for children who can sit without assistance, since they aren't as likely to have car seat compatibility. That said there are some exceptions. Thule Urban Glide 2 Double and Baby Trend Sit 'N Stand Double are both excellent options that offer adjustable recline in both seats, a large canopy, and padded five-point harnesses. They are also simple to maneuver, despite their larger footprint. They are ideal for parents who worry about getting through doors.

The Cybex Duet pushchair is unique because it has a clever frame that can be expanded to allow for a second child seat. This makes it smaller than other pushchairs with side-by-side seating. It can be pushed through standard doors and is easy to maneuver on public transportation. It can also be used as a jogger, which is great news for those who want to use it in conjunction with a baby carrier or infant car seat, and comes in a variety of exciting colors.

The UPPAbaby Vista v2 double is another great side-by-side, lightweight double. It offers additional flexibility due to the modular frame. It has a smart design that lets you convert it into a single buggy or a double by incorporating two car seats or carrycots (it can even take twins). It is a practical option for families that are growing. The UPPAbaby umbrella stroller is one of the lightest, sexiest and stylish strollers available.

If you're looking for a more compact double buggy and lightweight double, you can 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 2 carrycots or infant car seats, and our home testers loved the sleek and easy it was to use even when loaded with children.

Side-by-side pushchairs that are lightweight aren't foolproof however -- if your children are of the same age or stage, they might still argue over who is allowed to ride in which seat. And if they're taller than each other, a tandem model could be better for them as it lets them face each other.

Tandem

While side-by-side models are best for children with similar age group, tandem light double Stroller for tall parents strollers have their own appeal. Some can fit carseats that are larger, and some have Reversible seats. Some even come with an extra carrycot or a convertible seat in the middle. They are generally more spacious and easy to access and exit from however their baskets tend to be smaller than those on single buggies. Many feature larger canopies, peekaboo windows and even padding for the leg cushions.

The iCandy Peach is another example of a great value lightweight tandem. The fabrics are a little less luxurious than some of our top-rated doubles. However, it still looks fantastic and is simple to use. Its one-handed folding is awe-inspiring. While it requires some practice, Kirstie from our Lab described it as "genius". The carrycot is not foldable while it's attached. However, the mechanism to attach and remove the carrycot is simple and quick.

Tandem strollers are light and lightweight. They generally have a more precise turning compared to side-byside models. However, they may be harder to drive on uneven surfaces or curbs. They can also be slower to accelerate and heavier to move. This puts strain on your back.

Another alternative is a convertible double buggy, which is initially one-person, but you add adapters to turn it into a double. It can have the option of a second seat or carrycot on the front or the kids 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 from birth-sized pram by purchasing additional cocoons for PS59 each. The cocoons create a flat space for newborns. These can be placed in a row or joined to one another and you can use them with the baby car seat that comes with the pushchair (as as long as you select an appropriate one). These buggies for dual-use are made of quality materials that can be used for many years without showing any wear. This means they have an excellent resale value.

Single-to-Double

This light double buggy is made for families who love the outdoors and would like to upgrade from a single-stroller. It can be transformed into a jogger with a kit that includes air-filled tires as well as all-wheel suspension. It is also a good option for twins or children of different age groups and as triple tandem, it can be able to handle the rough terrain. It's also a good option for parents looking for an elegant design that's as elegant as a single and is available in a range of fabric colours.

This iCandy model is easy to fold with a single-handed system. Although it's heavier than other single-to-double pushchairs in this review, home tester Karolina claimed that it 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 buy add-ons for this stroller like the Roma Gemini carrycots (PS100 each) which are great for newborns. Our test panel found that the seats were comfortable for toddlers and had good lumbar support and headrests. And there are plenty of options for recline and recline, with the front seat being adjustable to different positions, and the rear seat offering the option of recline.

The main drawback to this type of buggy is that it's generally wider overall than side-by-side doubles which makes it more difficult to maneuver through doorways, and can be difficult to maneuver around kerbs. However, the wheels and suspension on these models generally perform well in coping with paved surfaces and the fact that they're generally significantly lighter than the side-by-sides, means you still have a decent amount of storage space. These strollers can be difficult to maneuver around supermarkets with narrow aisles, and they may struggle to carry loads. Although it's much easier to turn the stroller around on a small curved path, this can be a challenge. 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 changing family needs. They are typically single buggies. They include adapters that permit you to include a second child's seat or a carrycot (in certain instances) an automobile seat to the frame. Some can be converted to a single one when your child reaches the age of walk or prefers to ride a buggyboard.

One of the most lightweight double strollers on our list, this fashionable tri-fold model is able to hold children up to 40 lbs each and features a handy basket in between the seats for storage. The home testers loved the spacious canopy with peekaboo windows with multi-position reclining seats as well as front and rear suspensions for smoother rides on rough terrain. It also has a convenient parent cup holder and an ample easy-to-access basket. However, they pointed out that the backs of the seats have pockets that aren't large enough to hold much more than a cell phone and keys.

This light, high-end side-byside is available in more than 20 configurations. It also comes with a second seat and carrycot. Its impressive features include a high-profile handlebar for easier 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 back wheels with suspension for a smoother ride. The only downside 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 because it is easy to maneuver and has a large basket for shopping that can be accessed from both seats when in the parent-facing position. Its extremely lightweight weight (about the same as some single pushchairs) makes it a breeze to maneuver. Reversible seats mean you can flip them to face either direction and the clever way it attaches a second seat or riding board to the rear is praised by many. Parents also appreciated the fact that it could accommodate infant carriers and car seats from various brands, including some which aren't usually fit in other double buggies.
