Which Lightweight Double Pushchair Should You Buy?

It's easy to move around in a light double pushchair, particularly if you have children of varying ages. They are generally easy to fold, steer and transport up and down the stairs.

This City Mini GT2 features side-by-side seating with plenty of legroom. It also has adjustable reclining, large UPF 50+ canopies and peekaboo windows. It also has a frame that expands in width to accommodate the second car seat or an additional passenger.

Side-by-Side

Most of the lightweight double pushchairs we tried were side-by-side models. These are best for children who can sit up without assistance, since they lack car seat compatibility. The Thule Urban Glide 2 Double and the Baby Trend Sit 'N Stand double buggy newborn, are both excellent choices. They offer recline that can be adjusted for both seats, a huge canopy, and padded 5-point safety harnesses. They are also easy to move around despite their bigger footprint. They are great for parents who fret about fitting through doors.

The Cybex Duet is a little different due to its unique frame that expands widthways to add a second seat, which makes it lighter than other pushchairs with side-by-side seating available. It can be pushed through standard doors and is easy to move around on public transport. It can also be used as a jogger, which is a great feature when you're planning to use it in conjunction with an infant carrier or car seat. It's available in a range of fun colors.

The UPPAbaby Vista v2 double is another great side-by-side, lightweight double. It allows for additional flexibility due to a modular frame. The clever design allows you to convert it into a double or single buggy by adding two carrycots or car seats for children. It can even accommodate twins. It is a practical option for families growing. The umbrella stroller UPPAbaby is one of the lightest, most stylish and fashionable strollers you can find.

If you prefer a more compact lightweight double, try the egg2 which folds down to the size 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 use even when loaded with kids.

Even though they are lightweight double pushchairs that sit side-by-side aren't foolproof. If your children are of the same age and stage, they might be fighting over who sits in which position. If they are at different heights, then a tandem style may be the best option for them, since it allows them to face each other.

Tandem

While side-byside models are more for children with similar age, tandem lightweight double strollers come with their own appeal. They can be fitted with a larger car seat, and some even have convertible seats or an additional carrycot that is located in the middle. They are bigger and easy to get in and out of. However their baskets tend to be smaller than those on buggies that are single. Many feature larger canopies as well as peekaboo windows, and even cushioned leg cushions.

The iCandy Peach tandem is another good example of a lightweight tandem that is a great value. The fabrics are a little less luxurious than some of our top-rated doubles. But, it looks great and is easy to use. Its one-handed folding is impressive. While it requires some time to master, Kirstie from our Lab called it "genius". It's not foldable with the carrycot attached but the mechanism for attaching and removing it is simple and quick.

Tandem double pushchairs are light and lightweight. They generally have tighter turns than side-by-side models, however they are more challenging to drive over bumps and uneven surfaces. They are also slow to speed up and may be heavier to move, which could put stress on your back.

Another alternative is a convertible double buggy, which starts off as one-person, but you can add adapters that turn it into a double. They can have the option of a second seat, a carrycot, or both in the front. The children can sit together. Some can also consider including a buggyboard that helps an older child keep up with siblings who are younger.

The Uppababy Vista V2 is a excellent example of a convertible because it can also be converted into a twin buggy pram by the purchase of additional cocoons (PS59 each) that create a lie-flat space for infants. They can be attached together or placed on top of each other. You can also use the car seat that came with the pushchair if it is compatible with the. 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 that they have the highest resale value.

Single-to-Double

This light double buggy was designed for outdoor-loving family who want to upgrade from an individual-stroller. It can be converted into a jogger by acquiring the kit that comes with air-filled tires and All Terrain Double Stroller-wheel suspension. It can also handle rough terrain well and is a tandem triple is ideal for twins or children of different ages. It's also a great choice for parents who want a stylish design that's as elegant as a single and comes in a variety of fabric colours.

We loved the way that this iCandy model folds into itself with just one hand, making it very simple to master. And although it's heavier than the other single-to-double pushchairs featured in this review, home tester Karolina claimed that it feels very maneuverable - even when she had two toddlers and a carrycot inside.

The seat can be used 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 the seats to be comfortable for toddlers and had good lumbar support and headrests. And there are many options for reclining and recline, with the front seat being adjustable to different positions and the rear seat offering a recline option.

The biggest drawback with this type of buggy is that it is generally larger overall than doubles that are side-by-side which makes it more difficult to maneuver through doorways, and is 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 generally significantly lighter than the side-by-sides means you can still have a decent amount of storage space. These strollers aren't easy to maneuver through supermarkets with narrow aisles and they can be difficult to carry loads. Although it's easier to turn the stroller on a narrow, curving path, it can be a challenge. Some are easier to turn than other models, like the Thule Urban Glide 2 Double or the Baby Trend Sit N' Stand Double.

Convertible

The benefit of convertible double pushchairs is that they can adapt to the changing family requirements. They often start out as single buggies, and come with adapters to add an additional seat, carrycot or (in some instances) the car seat to the frame. Some are able to be converted to a single buggie when your child's older age begins to walk or chooses to ride a buggyboard.

This stylish tri-fold double stroller is one of the lightest on our list. It can hold up to 40lbs per child and comes with an integrated storage basket between the seats. The large canopy with a peekaboo window, multi-position reclining seats and front and back suspension for smoother rides on rough terrain were praised by home testers. It also has a handy cup holder for the parent, and a large accessible, easily accessible basket. However, they noted that the backs of the seats have pockets that aren't large enough to hold much more than a cell phone and keys.

This lightweight, high-end side-by-side is available in more than 20 different configurations. It also includes a second chair and carrycot. Its impressive set of features includes a handlebar with a high-profile design 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 wheel lock that swivels in the front and 10-inch rear wheels with suspension for a smoother ride. The only downside is that you'll need to purchase an additional car seat or baby carrier.

This multi-functional tandem is a top pick by our home testers due to its maneuverability and large shopping basket, which is accessible with both seats facing the parent. It is simple to maneuver thanks to its surprisingly low weight (about the equivalent of some single pushchairs). Many people praise the clever way it connects the second seat or riding board to the back. Parents also appreciated the fact that it could accommodate infant car seats and carriers from a variety of brands, including those that aren't typically fit in other double buggies.
