Which Lightweight Double Pushchair Should You Buy?

A lightweight double pushchair makes it easy to get around, particularly if you have children of various age groups. They are easy to fold, steer and carry up and down 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 frames that can be expanded in size to accommodate an additional car seat or another passenger.

Side-by-Side

The majority of the lightweight double pushchairs we've test are side-byside models and they're generally best for children who can stand up without assistance since these models aren't equipped with car seat integration. The Thule Urban Glide 2 Double and the 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 bigger footprint and are perfect for parents worried about fitting into doorways.

The Cybex Duet is a little different because its clever frame expands in width to accommodate a second seat, which makes it lighter than the majority of other pushchairs that are side-by-side available. It is able to fit through doors that are standard and is easy to maneuver on public transportation. It is also a jogger which is great for those who plan to use it in conjunction with an infant car seat or carrier.

The UPPAbaby Vista v2 double is another excellent lightweight side-by-side double. It provides additional flexibility due to the modular frame. Its clever design lets you to convert it into a single or double stroller with car seat buggy by adding two carrycots or child car seats. It can even accommodate twins. It's a good option for growing families. The UPPAbaby umbrella stroller is also one of the lightest, most fashionable and fashionable strollers you can find.

Try the egg2 which folds down to the size and weight of a compact suitcase. It can be used as a single double by adding 2 carrycots or infant car seats, and our home testers loved the sleek and easy it was to carry, even when fully loaded with children.

Even though they are lightweight, double pushchairs that are side-by-side aren't foolproof. If your children are at the same age and stage, they might still fight about who gets to sit in which position. If they're at different heights, a tandem style may be ideal for them as it allows them to face eachother.

Tandem

While side-byside models are more for children of the same ages, tandem lightweight double strollers come with distinct appeals. They can accommodate a larger car seat, and some come with convertible seats or an additional carrycot in the middle. They are generally more spacious and easier to move into and out of the baskets, though they tend to be smaller than those of single buggies. They also have larger big canopies with windows that peek out as well as a parent cup holder and cushioned leg cushions for the young children.

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. However, it still looks great and is easy to use. Its one-handed folding is impressive. While it requires some time to master, Kirstie from our Lab described it as "genius". It can't be folded without the carrycot attached, but the mechanism for attaching and removing it is simple and fast.

Tandem lightweight double pushchairs will generally have tighter turns than side-by-side models however, they can be more difficult to drive over uneven surfaces and curbs. They are also slower to accelerate and heavier to move. This puts strain on your back.

Another option is a convertible double buggy, that starts out as a single to double stroller and then you can add adapters to make it into a double. This can include the option of a second seat or carrycot in the front or the kids can be seated side-byside. Some have the option of including a buggyboard that helps an older child keep pace with siblings who are younger.

The Uppababy Vista V2 is a excellent example of a convertible since it can be converted into a twin pram with the purchase of additional cocoons (PS59 each) that provide a flat space for infants. They can be placed in a row or joined to face each other and you can also use them with the infant car seat that comes with the pushchair (as long as you choose a compatible one). Since they are made of high-quality materials, these dual-use buggies can often be used for years without showing much wear, which means they have a an excellent price resales.

Single-to-Double

For families who love the outdoors and are looking to upgrade their single stroller, this light double buggy transforms into a jogger with the help of an impressive kit that comes with air-filled tyres and all-wheel suspension. It also handles rough terrain well and is a tandem triple is ideal for twins or children of different ages. It's also a good option for parents looking for an elegant design that's as sleek as a single, and is available in a range of fabric colours.

This iCandy model is incredibly 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 still very capable of maneuvering even with two toddlers and the carrycot.

The seat can be used parent-facing and you can buy add-ons for this stroller such as the Roma Gemini carrycots (PS100 each) that are perfect for newborns. Our test panel found the seats to be comfortable for toddlers and had good lumbar support and headrests. There are numerous options to recline the seats and the front seat is adjustable in different positions and the back seat having an option to recline.

The biggest drawback with this type of buggy is that it's generally larger overall than the side-by-side doubles, which makes it harder to navigate through doorways and can be difficult to maneuver around kerbs. However the suspension and wheels are generally able to do a good job of coping with paved surfaces and the fact that they're lighter than the side-by-sides means you can still find plenty of storage space. It's important to remember that these strollers aren't as good at getting through narrow aisles in supermarkets and can struggle to handle a large amount of shopping. It's easier to turn them around on the smallest of curved paths however, even this can be difficult. Some are easier to turn than other models, like the Thule Urban Glide 2 Double or Baby Trend Sit N' Stand Double.

Convertible

The great thing about convertible double pushchairs is that they can adapt to the changing family needs. They typically start as single buggies, and have adapters that allow you to add an additional seat, carrycot or (in certain instances) an automobile seat to the frame. Some of them can be converted back to a single as your child grows older and begins to walk or prefers to ride on a buggy board.

One of the lightest double Stroller double strollers on our list, this sleek tri-fold model can carry children up to 40 lbs each and features an easy-to-use basket between the seats for storage. Home testers appreciated its large canopy with windows that peek out, multi-position reclining seats and front and rear suspension for smoother rides on rough terrain. It also has a convenient parent cup holder and a large, easily accessible basket. The backs have tiny pockets, which are just large enough to hold the phone and a set of keys.

This high-end, lightweight side-by-side can be used in more than 20 configurations and comes with a second seat and carrycot. Its impressive features include a handlebar with a high-profile design for easier steering as well as rear and front suspensions to smooth rough terrain; a self-standing, compact fold that has straps for easy schlepping; 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 have to purchase an additional car seat or baby carrier.

This versatile tandem is a top pick from our home testers due to its maneuverability and large shopping basket, which is accessible from both seats in the parent-facing position. It is a breeze to maneuver due to its surprisingly low weight (about the same as a few single pushchairs). Many users praise the clever way it connects the second seat or riding board at the back. Parents also liked the fact that it could accommodate infant car seats and carriers from a variety of brands, including some which aren't usually fit in other double buggies.
