Which Lightweight Double Pushchair Should You Buy?

A lightweight double pushchair is easy to get around, particularly for families with children of different age groups. They are easy to fold, steer and carry up and down steps.

This City Mini GT2 offers side-by-side seats with plenty of legroom with adjustable reclining, as well as huge UPF 50+ canopies with peekaboo windows. It also has a frame that expands in width to accommodate an additional car seat or a second passenger.

Side-by-Side

The majority of the lightweight double pushchairs we've test are side-byside models and are generally recommended for kids who can sit up unassisted since these models tend to lack car seat integration. The Thule Urban Glide 2 double pram buggy and the Baby Trend Sit 'N Stand Double, are both excellent choices. They offer adjustable recline for both seats, a large canopy, and padded 5-point safety harnesses. They are also simple to move around despite their larger footprint. They are perfect for parents who fret about fitting through doors.

The Cybex Duet is a little different because its clever frame extends its width to create another seat, making it slimmer than other pushchairs with side-by-side seating available. It can fit through doors of standard size and is easy to maneuver on public transportation. It's also a jogger, which is great if you want to use it in conjunction with an infant carrier or car seat. It's also available in a range of fun colors.

Another great side-by-side, lightweight double is the UPPAbaby Vista v2 Double, that offers more flexibility and customization thanks to its modular frame. The innovative design allows you to transform it into an individual or double buggy from birth buggy by adding two carrycots or child car seats. It can even accommodate twins. It's a good option for growing families. The UPPAbaby umbrella stroller is also one of the lightest, most fashionable and fashionable strollers you can find.

If you're looking for a compact, lightweight double, consider the egg2 that folds down to the size of a compact double buggy suitcase. It can be used as a double buggy side by side or a single by adding two carrycots or baby car seats. Our home testers were amazed by the ease of move around even with a full load of kids.

Even though they are lightweight double pushchairs that sit side-by-side do not guarantee safety. If your children are at the same age and stage, they may be fighting over who sits in which spot. If they are at different heights then a tandem style may be ideal for them as it allows them to face each other.

Tandem

While side-byside models are more for children of the same age group, tandem light double strollers come with distinct appeals. Some can accommodate a larger car seat and some have Reversible seats. Some even come with an extra carrycot or a reversible seat in the middle. They are larger and are easier to get in and out of. However their baskets tend to be smaller than those found on buggies that are single. Many also feature more generously large canopies that have peekaboo windows, as well as one parent cup holder and padding for the legs of young children.

The iCandy Peach tandem is another great example of a lightweight tandem that provides excellent value. Its fabrics feel a little less expensive than our other top-rated doubles however, it still looks and feels great and is very user-friendly. Its one-handed folding is impressive. Although it takes some time to master, Kirstie from our Lab described it as "genius". The carrycot is not foldable while it is attached. However, the process to attach and remove the carrycot is simple and quick.

Tandem strollers are light and lightweight. They generally have a more precise turning compared to side-byside models. However, they may be more difficult to drive on uneven surfaces or curbs. They are also slower to accelerate and heavier to move. This puts strain on your back.

A convertible double buggy is another alternative. It's initially a single, but you can add adapters to convert it into double. It can also include an additional seat, a carrycot or both in the front. The children can share a seat. Some may have the option of including a buggyboard that assists an older child to keep up with siblings who are younger.

The Uppababy Vista V2 is a excellent example of a convertible as it can also convert into a twin pram with the purchase of additional cocoons (PS59 each) that provide a flat space for infants. These can be placed on top of each other or positioned to face each other and you can use them with the baby car seat that is included with the pushchair (as as long as you select a compatible one). These buggies with dual-use capabilities are made from high-quality materials and can last for many years without showing any wear. This means they come with an excellent resale value.

Single-to-Double

This lightweight double buggy was designed for families who love the outdoors and want to upgrade from an individual-stroller. It can be transformed into a jogger with kits that include air-filled tires and all-wheel suspension. It's also a good choice for twins, or children from different ages and, as a triple tandem, it's able to handle rough terrain. It's also a good choice for parents who want an elegant design that's as sleek as a single, and comes in a variety of colors for the fabric.

We loved the way that this iCandy model folds up using a single-hand mechanism that's extremely simple to master. It's heavier than other single-to-double pushchairs, but home tester Karolina says it's mobile even with two toddlers and a carrycot.

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 ideal for babies. Our panel of testers found that the seats to be comfortable for toddlers, with good headrests and lumbar support. There are a variety of options to recline the seats with the front seat can be adjusted to different positions, and the back seat also having an option to recline.

This kind of buggy has the main disadvantage of being larger than doubles that are side-by-side. This makes it difficult to navigate through doorways and it isn't easy to maneuver between kerbs. The wheels and suspension of these types of strollers are generally good at coping with paved surfaces. They're also lighter than most side-by-sides which means you can have plenty of storage. These strollers aren't easy to maneuver through supermarkets with narrow aisles, and they can be difficult to carry a lot. It's a little easier to turn them around on the smallest of curved paths however, even this can be a challenge. 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

The great thing about convertible double pushchairs is that they can adapt to a family's changing requirements. They are typically single buggies, and include adapters to add the second seat, a carrycot, or (in certain cases) an automobile seat to the frame. Some of them can be converted back to a single as your older child begins to walk more or prefers to ride on buggy boards.

One of the most lightweight double strollers on our list, this sleek tri-fold model can carry children as heavy as 40 pounds each. It comes with a convenient basket that can be placed between the seats for storage. Home testers appreciated its large canopy with windows that peek out multi-position reclining seats, as well as front and rear suspensions for smoother rides on rough terrain. It also has a handy cup holder for the parent and an ample, easy-to-access basket. They did note that the backs of the bags have small pockets which are only large enough to hold phones and a set of keys.

This premium, lightweight side-by-side can be used in more than 20 different configurations and comes with two seats and a carrycot. Its impressive set of features includes a high-profile handlebar for easier steering; front and rear suspension to smooth rough terrain; a self-standing, compact fold that has straps for easy schlepping; and seven-inch swivel lock front wheels and 10-inch back wheels with suspension to provide a more comfortable ride. The only drawback is that you will need to purchase an additional car seat or baby carrier.

This multi-functional tandem is the most popular of our home testers due to the fact that it is easy to maneuver and comes with a large basket for shopping that is accessible from both seats when they are in the parent-facing positions. Its surprisingly lightweight weight (about the same as single pushchairs) makes it easy to maneuver. Reversible seats mean you can flip them to face either direction, and the clever method by which it can attach the second seat or riding board to the rear is praised by many. Parents also loved that it accommodates infant carriers and car seat from various brands. This includes some that are not normally compatible with other double buggies.
