Which Lightweight Double Pushchair Should You Buy?

It's easy to move around in a lightweight double pushchair, especially if you have children with different age groups. They are 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 features adjustable reclining, large UPF 50+ canopy, and peekaboo windows. It also has frames that can be expanded in width to accommodate a second car seat or a second passenger.

Side-by-Side

The majority of the lightweight double pushchairs we tried were side-by-side models. They are ideal for children who can sit up without assistance, as they aren't as likely to have compatibility with car seats. However they do have a few advantages. Thule Urban Glide 2 Double and the Baby Trend Sit 'N Stand Double are both great options that provide adjustable recline in both seats, a huge canopy, and padded 5-point harnesses. These are also easy to move around despite their larger footprint. They are great for parents who fret about getting through doors.

The Cybex Duet pushchair is unique because it has a clever frame that expands to accommodate an additional child seat. This makes it smaller than other side-byside pushchairs. It can fit through doors that are standard and is easy to maneuver in public transport. It can also be used as a jogger, which is a great feature if you want to use it in conjunction with a baby carrier or infant car seat. It's also available in a variety of exciting colors.

Another excellent side-by-side lightweight double is the UPPAbaby Vista v2 double stroller with infant car seat, that offers more customization through a modular frame. The innovative design allows you to transform it into a double or single buggy by adding two carrycots or car seats for children. It can even accommodate twins. It's an outstandingly practical choice for growing families and the UPPAbaby is one of the lightest and stylish umbrella strollers available.

If you're looking for a more compact and lightweight double, you can try the egg2 which folds to the size of a compact suitcase. It can be used as a double or a single by adding two baby car seats or carrycots. Our test subjects were awed by how easy it was to move around even with a load of kids.

Side-by-side lightweight double pushchairs aren't 100% foolproof, howeverwhen your children are at the same age or stage, they might be fighting over who rides in which seat. If they're taller than each other it could be that a tandem design might be better 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 lightweight double pushchairs offer their own perks. They can accommodate a larger car seat, and some even have convertible seats or an additional carrycot that is located in the middle. They are generally more spacious and easy to move into and out of however their baskets are usually smaller than the ones on single buggies. Many have larger canopies as well as peekaboo windows, and even padded leg cushions.

The iCandy Peach is another example of a lightweight and affordable tandem. The fabric is a bit less luxurious than those of some of our top-rated doubles. However, it looks stunning and is easy to use. One of the most impressive aspects about it is the one-handed fold. Although it does require practice, Kirstie in our Lab declared it to be "genius". The carrycot cannot be folded while it is attached. However, the mechanism to attach and remove the carrycot is simple and quick.

Tandem lightweight nipper double buggy pushchairs will typically make tighter turns than side-by-side models however, they can be more difficult to drive over uneven surfaces and curbs. They may also be a little slower to speed up and may be heavier to move, which could put strain on your back.

Another alternative is a convertible double buggy that starts out as one-person, but you can add adapters that turn it into a double. This can include an additional seat or carrycot in front or the kids can be seated side-by-side. Some of them also offer the option of incorporating a buggy board, which can help older children keep up with a younger sibling.

The Uppababy Vista V2 can be transformed into a twin-sized pushchair by purchasing additional cocoons for PS59 each. These cocoons provide an open space for infants. They can be placed in a row or joined to face each other and you can use them in conjunction with the baby car seat that is included with the pushchair (as as long as you select a compatible one). Since they are made of high-quality materials, these types of dual-use buggies can often be used for a long time without displaying much wear, meaning they have high potential for resale.

Single-to-Double

This compact double travel buggy buggy is made for families who love the outdoors and would like to upgrade from an individual-stroller. It can be transformed into a jogger using kits that include air-filled tires as well as all-wheel suspension. It can also handle rough terrain well and is a tandem triple, is perfect for twins or children of various age groups. It's an excellent choice for parents who want a stylish style that's as sleek as a single and is available in a variety of colors.

We were impressed by the way this iCandy model folds into itself using a single-hand mechanism that's really easy to master. And although it's heavier than some of the other single-to-double pushchairs featured in this review, our home tester Karolina claimed that it is very maneuverable, even when she had two toddlers and a carrycot in it.

The seat can be used with the parent facing, and you can also purchase additional accessories 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 the seats and the front seat is can be adjusted to different positions, and the back seat having an option to recline.

This type of buggy comes with the greatest disadvantage of being larger than doubles that are side-by-side. This makes it difficult to maneuver through doorways, and it can be difficult to get up and down kerbs. The wheels and suspension of these strollers are generally able to cope with pavements. They're also lighter than many side-by-sides and, therefore, 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. Even though it's easier to turn the stroller double around on a narrow, curving path, it 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 instance.

Convertible

Convertible double pushchairs are ideal because they can be adapted to the changing needs of a family. They are typically single buggies, but include adapters to add a second seat, a carrycot or (in certain instances) the car seat to the frame. Some of them can be converted back to a single as your child grows older and begins to walk or prefers to ride on buggy boards.

One of the lightest double strollers we have on our list, this stylish tri-fold model can carry children up to 40lbs each. It comes with 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 suspensions to ensure smoother rides on rough terrain were appreciated by testers at home. It also has a convenient parent cup holder and a large, easy-to access basket. They did note that the backs have small pockets, that are just big enough to fit a phone and keys.

This lightweight, high-end side-by-side is available in more than 20 models. It also comes with a second seat and carrycot. It has a high-profile steering handlebar, rear and front suspensions to smooth out rough terrain and a compact fold that can be folded up with straps for easy transport, and seven-inch front wheels with swivel locks, and 10-inch back wheels that have suspensions to ensure an easier ride. The only downside is that you'll need to purchase a separate car seat or baby carrier.

This versatile tandem is a top choice among our home testers for its easy-to-maneuver size and impressively large shopping basket that is accessible from both seats facing towards the parent. Its lightweight weight (about the same as single pushchairs) makes it easy to move around. Many have praised 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 a variety of brands, including those which aren't usually fit into other double buggies.
