Which Lightweight Double Pushchair Should You Buy?

It's easy to move around in a lightweight double running buggy pushchair, especially if you have kids of different ages. They're typically simple to fold, steer, and carry up and down stairs.

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

Side-by-Side

The majority of light double pushchairs we've test are side-byside models and they're generally best for children that can sit up unassisted, as these models tend to lack car seat integration. That said, the Thule Urban Glide 2 Double and Baby Trend Sit 'N Stand Double are both excellent options that offer adjustable recline in both seats, a huge canopy and padded 5-point harnesses. They're also easy to maneuver despite their bigger footprint and are perfect for parents who are worried about fitting into doorways.

The Cybex Duet is a little different because its clever frame expands in width to accommodate an additional seat, making it slimmer than other pushchairs with side-by-side seating available. It can be pushed through standard doorways and is easy to move around on public transport. It can also be used as a jogger, which is great news for those who want to use it in conjunction with an infant carrier or car seat. It's available in a range of fun colors.

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 turn it into a single buggy or a double by incorporating 2 carrycots or car seats (it can even accommodate twins). It's a fantastic and practical choice for growing families, and the UPPAbaby also is one of the lightest and stylish umbrella strollers around.

If you prefer a more compact and lightweight double, you can try the egg2 that folds down to the size of a compact suitcase. It can be used as a single or double by adding 2 baby car seats or carrycots. Our home testers were impressed with how easy it was to move even with a full load of kids.

Side-by-side lightweight double pushchairs aren't foolproof however -If your children are of the same age or at the same stage, they might still argue over who is allowed to ride in which seat. If they're at different heights, a tandem style might be better for them as it allows them to confront each other.

Tandem

While side-by-side models may be more appropriate for siblings of the same age, tandem lightweight double pushchairs are a different kind of pushchair with their own appeal. They can take a bigger car seat, and some come with convertible seats or an additional carrycot in the middle. They are generally more spacious and easy to access and exit from, although their baskets are usually smaller than the ones on single buggies. Many have larger canopies, peekaboo windows and even padded leg cushions.

The iCandy Peach tandem is another excellent example of a light tandem that is a excellent value. Its fabrics feel a little less expensive than our other top-rated doubles but it looks and feels great and is very easy to use. One of the most impressive things about it is the one-handed fold. Although it requires practice, Kirstie in our Lab declared it to be "genius". The carrycot is not foldable while it's attached. However, the mechanism to attach and remove the carrycot is simple and quick.

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

Another alternative is a convertible double buggy that starts out as one-person, but you can add adapters to make it into a double. This can include a second seat or carrycot on the front or children can be seated side-by-side. Some can also consider including a buggyboard, which can help an older child keep up with a younger brother or sister.

The Uppababy Vista V2 can be transformed into a twin stroller-sized stroller by purchasing additional cocoons for PS59 each. These cocoons provide an area that is flat for newborns. These can be placed on top of each other or positioned to face each other, and you can use them in conjunction with the baby car seat that comes with the pushchair (as long as you choose a compatible one). These buggies with dual-use capabilities are made of quality materials and can last for many years without showing any wear. This means they come with a high resale price.

Single-to-Double

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

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

You can buy add-ons such as the Roma Gemini Carrycots (PS100) which are perfect for newborns. The seats are comfortable for toddlers, with good headrests and lumbar support. There are numerous options for reclined seats and the front seat is can be adjusted to different positions, and the back seat having a reclining option.

The main drawback to this type of buggy is that it's generally larger overall than doubles that are side-by-side which makes it more difficult to navigate through doorways and can be difficult to maneuver around kerbs. The wheels and suspension of these strollers are generally able to cope with pavements. They're also lighter than most side-by-sides and, therefore, you can get a lot of storage. It's important to keep in mind that these strollers aren't as efficient in getting through narrow aisles in supermarkets and aren't able to cope with a lot of shopping. It's a little easier to turn them around even on the smallest of curving paths, but even this can be a challenge. Some are more easy to turn than others, such as the Thule Urban Glide 2 Double or Baby Trend Sit N' Stand Double.

Convertible

The benefit of convertible double pushchairs is that they can adapt to changing family needs. They typically start as single buggies, and include adapters to add the second seat, carrycot or (in some instances) a car seat to the frame. Some are able to be converted to a single buggie when your older child starts to walk or chooses to ride buggyboards.

One of the most lightweight double strollers on our list, this stylish tri-fold model can carry children as heavy as 40 pounds each. It also has a handy basket in between the seats to store things. Home users loved its spacious canopy that has windows that can be seen from the outside with multi-position reclining seats as well as front and rear suspension for smoother rides on rough terrain. It also has an easy-to-use cup holder for parents as well as an enormous easy-to-access basket. However, they noted that the seats' backs have pockets that aren't big enough to hold much more than a smartphone and keys.

This high-end, lightweight side-by-side is available in more than 20 different configurations. It also comes with a second chair and carrycot. It has a distinctive steering handlebar, front and rear suspensions to smooth out rough terrain, an ultra-compact fold that stands up on its own with straps for easy transportation, and seven-inch front wheel with swivel locks and 10-inch back wheels that have suspensions for an easier ride. The only downside is that you'll need purchase a separate baby carriage or car seat.

This multi-functional tandem is the top choice of our home testers because it is easy to maneuver and comes with an enormous shopping basket that can be accessed from both seats when in the parent-facing position. Its surprisingly light weight (about the same as single pushchairs) makes it a breeze to move around. Many have praised the clever method of attaching the second seat or riding board in the back. Parents also liked the fact that it can accommodate infant carriers and car seats from a variety of brands, including those that don't normally fit in other double buggies.
