Which Lightweight Double Pushchair Should You Buy?

It's easy to move around in the lightweight double pushchair especially if you have kids of varying age groups. They are generally easy to fold, steer and transport up and down the stairs.

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

Side-by-Side

Most of the lightweight double pushchairs we tried were side-by-side models. They are ideal for children who can sit up without assistance, since they tend to lack car seat compatibility. The Thule Urban Glide 2 Double and the Baby Trend Sit 'N Stand Double, are both excellent options. They have adjustable recline for both seats, a large canopy, and padded five-point safety harnesses. They're also easy to move despite their larger footprints and are perfect for parents worried about fitting through doors.

The Cybex Duet pushchair is unique because it features a unique frame that expands in width to add an additional child seat. This makes it lighter than other side-byside pushchairs. It is able to fit through doors of standard size 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 with baby carriers or a car seat, and comes in a variety of exciting colors.

Another great side-by-side, lightweight double is the UPPAbaby Vista v2 Double, which offers even more customization with a modular frame. It has a smart design that lets you transform it into a single buggy or a double by incorporating two car seats or carrycots (it can even accommodate twins). It's a good option for growing families. The UPPAbaby umbrella stroller is also one of the lightest, sexiest and fashionable strollers you can find.

If you prefer a more compact lightweight cheap double buggy, try the egg2 that folds down to the size of a small suitcase. It can be used as a single or double by adding 2 carrycots or infant car seats, and our home testers were awed by the sleek and easy it was to handle even when loaded with kids.

Side-by-side pushchairs that are lightweight aren't foolproof however -If your children are the same age or stage, they may still fight over who is allowed to ride in which seat. If they are at different heights, a tandem style may be best twin stroller for them, as it lets them face each other.

Tandem

While side-byside models might be more appropriate for siblings who are the same age tandem pushchairs are light and lightweight, and offer their own perks. Some can accommodate a larger car seat and others have Reversible seats. Others have an additional carrycot or convertible seat in the middle. They tend to be more spacious and easier to move into and out of the baskets, though they are typically smaller than the ones on single buggies. Many feature larger canopies as well as peekaboo windows, and even padded leg cushions.

The iCandy Peach tandem is another good example of a lightweight tandem that is a great value. The fabric is a bit less expensive than some of our top-rated doubles. But, it looks great and is easy to use. One of the most striking things about it is the one-handed fold - although it will require some practice, Kirstie in our Lab declared it to be "genius". The carrycot can't be folded when it is attached. However, the process to attach and remove the carrycot is quick and easy.

Tandem lightweight double strollers will usually make tighter turning than side-by-side models. However, they could be more difficult to navigate on uneven surfaces and curbs. They can also be slower to accelerate and are heavier to move. This can put strain on your back.

Another alternative is a convertible double buggy which is initially an individual and then you can add adapters to make it into a double. This can include an additional seat or carrycot in front, or the children can be seated side-by-side. Some can also consider including a buggyboard, which assists an older child to keep pace with a younger brother or sister.

The Uppababy Vista V2 can be transformed into a twin pushchair-sized pushchair by purchasing additional cocoons at PS59 each. These cocoons create an area that is flat for newborns. They can be swiveled together or placed in a row. You can also use the car seat that came with the pushchair in the event that it is compatible with the. These dual-use buggies are made from high-quality materials and can last for many years without showing any wear. This means they come with a high resale price.

Single-to-Double

Designed for outdoor-loving families who want to upgrade their single stroller, this lightweight double buggy can be converted into a jogger thanks to an impressive kit that comes with air-filled tyres, as well as all-wheel suspension. It can also withstand rough terrain well and is a tandem triple is suitable for twins or children of different ages. It's a great option for parents who want a chic design that is as sleek as a single and comes in different fabric colours.

We were impressed by the way this iCandy model folds into itself with a one-handed mechanism that's very simple to master. It's also heavier than other single-to-double pushchairs featured in this review, our home tester Karolina stated that it feels very maneuverable - even with two toddlers and a carrycot.

The seat can be used parent-facing, and you can also buy add-ons for this stroller like the Roma Gemini carrycots (PS100 each), which are ideal for newborns. The seats are comfortable for toddlers and come with high-quality headrests and lumbar supports. There are many options for reclining, with the front seat being adjustable to different positions and the rear seat offering the option to recline.

The biggest drawback with this kind of buggy is that it's generally larger overall than the side-by-side doubles and makes it difficult to get through doorways and can be difficult to maneuver up and down kerbs. However, the wheels and suspension on these types of strollers generally are capable of coping with paved surfaces and the fact that they're generally much lighter than some of the side-by-sides, means you still have plenty of storage space. These strollers aren't easy to maneuver in supermarkets with Narrow Double Stroller aisles, and they may struggle to carry a lot. Although it's easier to turn the stroller around on a small curved path, it can be a problem. Some are also easier to turn than others, with the Thule Urban Glide 2 Double and the Baby Trend Sit N' Stand Double, for example.

Convertible

Convertible double pushchairs are great because they can be adjusted to the changing requirements of families. Most of the time, they begin as single buggies and include adapters that permit you to include a second child's seat or a carrycot (in some cases) the car seat to the frame. Some are able to be converted to a single when your older child starts to walk or wants to ride buggyboards.

One of the lightest double strollers on our list, this fashionable tri-fold model can carry children up to 40lbs each. It also has a handy basket in between the seats for storage. The spacious canopy with a peekaboo window, multi-position reclining seats as well as front and back suspension for smoother rides on rough terrain were well-loved by home testers. It also comes with a handy cup holder for the parent as well as an enormous easy-to-access basket. They also noted that the backs have small pockets, that are just large enough to hold phones and keys.

This top-of-the-line, lightweight side-byside can be used in more than 20 configurations, and comes with a second seat and carrycot. It features a high-profile steering handlebar, rear and front suspensions to smooth rough terrain, a compact fold that can stand on its own with straps that make it easy to transport, and seven-inch front wheels with swivel locks, and ten-inch back wheels with suspensions for more comfortable riding. The only drawback is that you will need to purchase a separate car seat or baby carrier.

This versatile tandem is a popular choice among our home testers for its easy-to-maneuver size and impressively large shopping basket that can be accessed with both seats facing the parent. Its extremely light weight (about the same as single pushchairs) makes it easy to move. Many people praise the clever method of attaching the second seat or riding board to the back. Parents also appreciated that it accommodates car seats and infant carriers from multiple brands. This includes a few that aren't normally compatible with other double buggies.
