Which Lightweight Double Pushchair Should You Buy?

It's easy to move around with the lightweight double pushchair especially if you have children of different ages. They are easy to fold, steer and carry up and over stairs.

This City Mini GT2 offers side-by-side seats with plenty of legroom, adjustable reclining and massive UPF 50+ canopy with peekaboo windows. It also comes with a smart frame that expands widthways to accommodate a second seat and compatible car seat(s).

Side-by-Side

The majority of lightweight double pushchairs we test are side-byside models and are best suited for children that can stand up without assistance since these models tend to lack car seat integration. 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 huge canopy, and padded 5-point harnesses. They're also easy to move despite their bigger footprint and are perfect for parents worried about fitting through doors.

The Cybex Duet pushchair is unique because of its clever frame that can be expanded to accommodate 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 transport. It can also be used as a jogger, which is great for those who want to use it in conjunction with an infant carrier or car seat, and comes in a variety of fun colors.

Another fantastic side-by-side light double is the UPPAbaby Vista v2 Double, which allows for even more flexibility and customization thanks to its modular frame. The clever design allows you to transform it into a double tandem pushchair or single buggy by adding two carrycots or car seats for children. It can even accommodate twins. It's an outstandingly practical choice for growing families and the UPPAbaby is one of the Lightest double Stroller and most stylish umbrella strollers on the market.

If you're looking for a more compact lightweight double buggy newborn, try the egg2 which folds down to the size of a compact suitcase. It can be used as a double or a single by adding 2 baby car seats or carrycots. Our test subjects were awed by the ease of move around even with a full load of children.

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 rides in which seat. If they're at different heights then a tandem style may be ideal for them as it allows them to face eachother.

Tandem

While side-byside models might be more appropriate for siblings of the same age tandem pushchairs that are lightweight offer their own perks. Some can fit a larger car seat and others have reversible seats. Some even come with an additional carrycot or reversible seat in the middle. They are larger, and easier to get into and out of. However, their baskets tend to be smaller than the ones found on buggies that are single. They often have larger sized canopies with peekaboo windows and a cup holder for the parent and padding for the legs of little ones.

The iCandy Peach tandem is another great example of a lightweight tandem that provides great value. Its fabric feels a bit less expensive than our other top-rated tandems, but it still looks and feels great and is user-friendly. One of the most striking things about it is its single-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.

Tandem strollers that are lightweight generally have a more precise turning compared to side-by-side models. However, they may be more difficult to drive on uneven surfaces or curbs. They are also slower to accelerate and heavier to move. This can put stress on your back.

Another alternative is a convertible double buggy that starts out as an individual and then you can add adapters to make it into a double. It could include an additional seat, a carrycot, or both in front. The children can sit together. Some may have the option of including a buggyboard that can help an older child keep pace with siblings who are younger.

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

Single-to-Double

Ideal for families who love to be outdoors and are looking to upgrade from a single stroller, this lightweight double buggy transforms into a jogger thanks an innovative kit that includes air-filled tyres, as well as all-wheel suspension. It can also handle rough terrain well and is a tandem triple, is perfect for twins or children of different ages. It's an excellent choice for parents who want a stylish style that's as simple as a single. It comes in different fabric colours.

We loved the way that this iCandy model folds into itself with just one hand, making it very easy to master. It's heavier than other single-to double pushchairs, but our home test Karolina says it's still very mobile even with two toddlers inside and the carrycot.

You can purchase additional items 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 a variety of options for reclining, with the front seat being able to be adjusted to different positions, and the rear seat offering the option of recline.

This kind of buggy has the greatest disadvantage of being 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 wheels and suspension of these types of strollers tend to be able to deal with surfaces that are paved. They're also lighter than most side-by-sides and, therefore, you can have plenty of storage space. It's worth bearing in mind that these types of strollers aren't as efficient in navigating narrow aisles in supermarkets, and may struggle to handle a lot of shopping. It's a little easier to turn them around on the smallest curves of paths but it can be difficult to turn them around on a straight path. Some are more easy to turn than other models, like the Thule Urban Glide 2 Double or the Baby Trend Sit N' Stand Double.

Convertible

Convertible double buggy side by side pushchairs are fantastic because they can be adjusted to the changing needs of a family. They are typically single buggies. They have adapters that allow you to add a second child's seat, a carrycot, or (in certain instances) the car seat to the frame. Some of them can be converted back to a single as your child gets older and starts to walk more or wants to ride on buggy boards.

One of the lightest double strollers on our list, this fashionable tri-fold model can carry children up to 40lbs each. It comes with a handy basket in between the seats to store things. The large canopy with a peekaboo window, multi-position reclining seats as well as front and back suspensions for smoother rides on rough terrain were well-loved by home testers. It also comes with a handy cup holder for the parent and a large, easily accessible basket. The backs have tiny pockets, which are only big enough to fit a phone and a set of keys.

This light, high-end side-byside is available in more than 20 models. It also comes with a second chair and carrycot. Its impressive features include a handlebar with a high-profile design for easier steering; front and rear suspension to smooth rough terrain; a self-standing compact fold that has straps that make it easy to schlep and seven-inch swivel lock front wheels and back wheels that measure 10 inches with suspension for a smoother ride. The only drawback is that you'll need 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 an enormous shopping basket that is accessible from both seats when in the parent-facing positions. It is easy to move around due to its surprisingly low weight (about the same as a few single pushchairs). The seats are reversible, which means that you can switch them around to face either way, and the clever method by which it connects an additional seat or riding board to the rear is highly praised by many. Parents also appreciated the fact that it can accommodate infant car seats and carriers from various brands, including some that don't normally fit into other double buggies.
