Which Lightweight Double Pushchair Should You Buy?

It's easy to move around with a lightweight double pushchair, especially if you have children with different ages. They're generally easy to steer, fold and carry up and down stairs.

This City Mini GT2 offers side-by-side seats with plenty of legroom and reclining that can be adjusted. It also has massive UPF 50+ canopy with windows that peek out. It also features a smart frame that expands widthways to accommodate a second seat and compatible car seat(s).

Side-by-Side

The majority of the light double pushchairs that we tested were side-by-side models. These are best for children who can stand up without assistance, since they tend to lack car seat compatibility. However they do have a few advantages. Thule Urban Glide 2 Double and the Baby Trend Sit 'N Stand double buggy travel system are both excellent options that offer adjustable recline in both seats, a wide canopy, and padded 5-point harnesses. They are also easy to maneuver, despite their larger footprint. They are great for parents who worry about fitting through doors.

The Cybex Duet pushchair is unique because of its clever frame that expands in width to accommodate an additional child seat. This makes it slimmer than other pushchairs that are side-by-side.

Another excellent side-by-side lightweight double is the UPPAbaby Vista v2 Double, which offers even more customization with a modular frame. It features a clever design that allows you to transform it into a single buggy or a double by adding 2 carrycots or car seats (it can even take twins).

Side-by-side lightweight double pushchairs aren't 100% foolproof, howeverIf your children are of the same age or stage, they may still fight over who gets to ride in which seat. And if they're different heights, a tandem model could be better for them, as it allows them to face each other.

Tandem

While side-by-side models are better suited for siblings who are the same age, tandem lightweight double pushchairs have their own charms. Some can fit a larger car seat and others have Reversible seats. Others have an extra carrycot or a convertible seat in the middle. They are bigger, and easier to get in and out of. However, their baskets tend to be smaller than those found on single buggies. Many also feature more generously big canopies with windows that peek out and a cup holder for the parent and padded leg cushions for little ones.

The iCandy Peach tandem is another good example of a lightweight tandem that is a an excellent value. The fabrics are less expensive than some of our top-rated doubles. However, it still looks great and is easy to use. Its one-handed folding is impressive. Even though it requires some practice, Kirstie from our Lab described it as "genius". It can't be folded without the carrycot attached, however, the mechanism for attaching and removing it is simple and quick.

The Uppababy Vista V2 is a good example of a convertible as it can also convert into a twin pram by the purchase of additional cocoons (PS59 each) which create a lay-flat space for infants. They can be attached together or placed side-by-side. You can also use the car seat that was included with the pushchair, when it's compatible with the.

We loved the way this iCandy model folds up with a one-handed mechanism that's very easy to master. It's heavier than other single-to double pushchairs, but home tester Karolina says it's still very capable of maneuvering even with two toddlers inside and a carrycot.

The seat can be used with the parent facing and you can buy add-ons for this stroller such as the Roma Gemini carrycots (PS100 each) which are great for infants. Our test panel found that the seats to be comfortable for toddlers and had good headrests and lumbar support.

Some are also more easy to turn than others, such as the Thule Urban Glide 2 double buggy with carrycot and the Baby Trend Sit N' Stand Double, for example.

Convertible

The great thing about convertible double pushchairs is the ability to adapt to a family's changing needs. Most of the time, they begin as single buggies. They include adapters that permit you to add a second child's chair, a carrycot, or (in certain instances) the car seat to the frame. Some of them can be converted back to a single buggie when your older child begins to walk more 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 carry up to 40lbs per child and comes with an integrated storage basket between the seats.

It is simple to maneuver thanks to its light weight (about the weight of a few single and double stroller pushchairs). Reversible seats mean they can be switched to face either direction and the clever method by which it can attach a second seat or riding board to the rear is appreciated by many.
