Which Lightweight Double Pushchair Should You Buy?

It's easy to move around in a lightweight double pushchair, particularly if you have children with 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 and reclining that can be adjusted. It also has huge UPF 50+ canopies with peekaboo windows. It also comes with a smart frame that can be expanded to accommodate a second seat and a compatible car seat(s).

Side-by-Side

The majority of lightweight double pushchairs we test are side-byside models and they're generally best for kids who can sit up unassisted, as these models tend to lack car seat integration. The Thule Urban Glide 2 Double, and 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 bigger footprint and are great for parents worried about fitting through doorways.

The Cybex Duet pushchair is unique because it has a clever frame that can be expanded to allow for an additional child seat. This makes it smaller than other side-byside pushchairs. It is able to fit through doors of standard size and is easy to maneuver on public transportation. It can also be used as a jogger which is great when you are planning to use it with an infant car seat or a baby carrier.

The UPPAbaby Vista v2 double is another excellent lightweight side-by-side double stroller for twins. It allows for even more customization thanks to a modular frame. It's a clever design that lets you transform it into a single buggy or a double by adding two car seats or carrycots (it can even accommodate twins). It's a good option for families growing. The umbrella stroller UPPAbaby is one of the lightest, sexiest and most stylish available.

Try the egg2 that folds down to the size and weight of a small suitcase. It can be used as a single or double with the addition of 2 carrycots or infant car seats, and our home testers loved how sleek and simple it was to use even when stuffed with children.

Side-by-side lightweight double pushchairs aren't 100% foolproof, howeverwhen 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 different heights, a tandem model could be better for them as it allows them to face each other.

Tandem

While side-by-side models may be better suited for siblings with similar ages, tandem lightweight double pushchairs offer their own perks. Some can accommodate an extra car seat, while others have seats that can be reversible. Some even come with an additional carrycot or reclined seat that can be flipped in the middle. They are generally more spacious and simple to move into and out of, although their baskets tend to be smaller than those on single buggies. They often have larger big canopies with windows that peek out, as well as one cup holder for the parent and padding for the legs of children.

The iCandy Peach is another example of a good-value lightweight tandem. The fabric is a little less expensive than our other top-rated doubles but it still looks and feels great and is very easy to use. One of the most impressive things about it is its single-handed fold. While it does require practice, Kirstie in our Lab declared it to be "genius". It's not possible to fold it with the carrycot attached, but the mechanism for attaching and taking it off it is simple and quick.

Tandem lightweight double pram and pushchair pushchairs will typically make tighter turns than side-byside models, but they can be more challenging to drive over 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. They can include a second seat, carrycot or both in front. Or the children can sit together. Some also have the option of incorporating buggy boards, which can aid an older child keep up with younger siblings.

The Uppababy Vista V2 can be converted into a twin stroller side by side-sized pram by purchasing additional cocoons for PS59 each. The cocoons create an area that is flat for newborns. They can be attached together or placed side-by-side. You can also use the car seat that came with the pushchair when it's compatible with the. Since they are made of high-quality materials, these kinds of buggies that are dual-use can be used for a long time without showing any wear, indicating they have high price resales.

Single-to-Double

This lightweight double buggy was designed for families who love the outdoors and are looking to upgrade from a single-stroller. It can be transformed into a jogger by acquiring a kit that includes air-filled tires and all-wheel suspension. It can also withstand rough terrain well and is a tandem triple is ideal for twins or children of different age groups. It's an excellent choice for parents who want a chic design that is as sleek as a single and comes in various colors of fabric.

This iCandy model is incredibly easy to fold with the use of a single hand. It's heavier than other single-to-double pushchairs, however our home tester Karolina says it's very mobile even with two toddlers inside and carrying a carrycot.

The seat can be used parent-facing, and you can also buy add-ons for this stroller, such as the Roma Gemini carrycots (PS100 each) that are perfect for babies. The seats are comfortable for toddlers with good headrests and lumbar support. And there are plenty of options for reclining and recline, with the front seat being able to be adjusted to different positions, and the rear seat offering a recline option.

This type of buggy has the biggest disadvantage of being wider than doubles that are side-by-side. This makes it difficult to navigate through doorways and it can be difficult to move up and down kerbs. However, the wheels and suspension on these models generally perform well in dealing with pavements and the fact that they're lighter than the side-bysides means that you still find plenty of storage space. It's important to remember that these strollers aren't as good at walking through the narrow aisles of supermarkets and can struggle to cope with a lot of shopping. Even though it's easier to turn the stroller on a narrow, curving path, this can still be a challenge. Some are more easy to turn than others models, like the Thule Urban Glide 2 Double or Baby Trend Sit N' Stand Double.

Convertible

Convertible double pushchairs are fantastic because they can be adjusted to the changing requirements of a family. Often, they start as single buggies, and come with adapters that allow you to add a second child's chair or a carrycot (in some instances) an automobile seat to the frame. Some can even convert back to a single buggie when your older child begins to walk or prefers to ride on buggy boards.

One of the lightest double strollers on our list, this stylish tri-fold model can hold children as heavy as 40 pounds each. It comes with a convenient basket that can be placed between the seats for storage. The spacious canopy with a peekaboo window, multi-position reclining chairs and a front and back suspension for smoother rides on rough terrain were appreciated by the home testers. It also has a convenient parent cup holder and an enormous accessible, easily accessible basket. However, they noticed that the seats' backs have tiny pockets that aren't large enough to accommodate anything more than a smartphone and keys.

This high-end, lightweight side-by-side can be used in more than 20 configurations and comes with two seats and a carrycot. It features a high-profile steering handlebar, rear and front suspensions to smooth rough terrain, an ultra-compact fold that can be folded up with straps for easy transport and seven-inch front wheels with swivel locks, and ten-inch back wheels with suspensions to ensure more comfortable riding. The only drawback is that you'll have to purchase a separate car seat or baby carrier.

This multi-functional tandem is the most popular of our home testers because it is easy to maneuver and has a large basket for shopping that can be accessed from both seats when in the parent-facing position. It is simple to move around due to its surprisingly low weight (about the equivalent of some single pushchairs). Many people praise the clever method of attaching the second seat or riding board at the back. Parents also appreciated the fact that it could accommodate infant carriers and car seats from multiple brands, including those that don't normally fit in other double buggies.
