Which Lightweight double pushchair with car seat Pushchair Should You Buy?

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

This City Mini GT2 features side-by-side seating with plenty of legroom. It also features adjustable reclining, large UPF 50+ canopy, and windows that peek out. It also comes with frames that can be expanded in the width to accommodate a second car seat or a second passenger.

Side-by-Side

The majority of the lightweight double pushchairs we test are side-byside models and are generally recommended for kids who can sit up unassisted because they tend to be lacking car seat integration. The Thule Urban Glide 2 Double, and Baby Trend Sit 'N Stand double travel stroller, are both excellent choices. They have recline that can be adjusted for both seats, a huge canopy, and padded 5-point safety harnesses. They're also easy to move despite their bigger footprint, and are ideal for parents worried about fitting through doorways.

The Cybex Duet pushchair is unique because of its clever frame that expands in width to allow for a second child seat. This makes it slimmer than other side-byside pushchairs. It is able to pass through doors of standard size and is easy to maneuver in public transport. It's also a jogger, which is great news for those who want to use it in conjunction with baby carriers or a car seat. It's also available in a variety of exciting colors.

The UPPAbaby Vista v2 double is another great side-by-side, lightweight double. It offers even more customization thanks to a modular frame. It has a smart design that lets you convert it into a single stroller or a double with the addition of 2 carrycots or car seats (it can even accommodate twins). It's a great option for families that are growing. The UPPAbaby umbrella stroller is one of the lightest, sexiest and most stylish available.

If you prefer 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 the ease of maneuver even with a full load of kids.

Side-by-side lightweight double pushchairs aren't foolproof, though -If your children are the same age or stage they might be fighting over who is allowed to ride in which seat. If they're at different heights, then a tandem style may be the best option for them, since it allows them to face eachother.

Tandem

While side-by-side models are more appropriate for siblings with similar ages, tandem lightweight double pushchairs are a different kind of pushchair with their own appeal. Some can accommodate a larger car seat and others come with Reversible seats. Others even have an extra carrycot or a reversible seat in the middle. They are bigger and easy to get into and out of. However their baskets tend to be smaller than the ones found on buggies that are single. Many also feature more generously large canopies that have peekaboo windows as well as a cup holder for parents and padding for the legs of young children.

The iCandy Peach is another example of a lightweight and affordable tandem. The fabrics are less expensive than some of our top-rated doubles. However, it looks great and is easy to use. One of the most striking things about it is its single-handed fold - although it will require some practice, Kirstie in our Lab declared it to be "genius". It's not foldable with the carrycot attached but the mechanism for attaching and removing it is simple and quick.

Tandem lightweight double pushchairs will typically make tighter turns than side-byside models, but they can be more challenging to drive over uneven surfaces and curbs. They are also slightly slower to accelerate and may be heavier to move, which can result in stress on your back.

Another option is a convertible double buggy which is initially an individual and then you add adapters to turn it into a double. It can also include the option of a second seat, a carrycot or both in the front. Or the children can sit together. Some may have the option of including a buggyboard, which can help an older child keep up with siblings who are younger.

The Uppababy Vista V2 is a good example of a convertible because it can also be converted into a twin pram by the purchase of additional cocoons (PS59 each) which create a lay-flat space for newborns. They can be swiveled together or placed side-by-side. You can also use the car seat that came with the pushchair when it's compatible. As they're made with quality materials, these buggies with dual-use capabilities can be used for many years without showing any wear, meaning they have high potential for resale.

Single-to-Double

Designed for outdoor-loving families who want to upgrade from a single stroller, this lightweight double buggy turns into a jogger thanks to a nifty kit that includes air-filled tyres, as well as all-wheel suspension. It's also a good choice for twins, or children from different age groups, and as a triple tandem, it can handle rough terrain. It's also a good choice for parents who are looking for an elegant design that's as elegant as a single and comes in a variety of colors for the fabric.

This iCandy model is very easy to fold using the use of a single hand. Although it's heavier than other single-to-double umbrella stroller pushchairs featured in this review, our home tester Karolina said that it still feels very maneuverable - even with two toddlers and a carrycot in it.

You can buy add-ons such as the Roma Gemini Carrycots (PS100) that are ideal for infants. The seats are comfortable for toddlers, with good headrests and lumbar support. And there are plenty of options for recline and recline, with the front seat being adjustable to different positions and the rear seat offering the option to recline.

This kind of buggy has the greatest disadvantage of being a bit wider than doubles that are side-by-side. This makes it difficult to maneuver through doorways, and it can be difficult to get between kerbs. The wheels and suspension of these strollers are generally good at coping with pavements. They're also lighter than many side-bysides, so you can still have plenty of storage space. It's worth bearing in mind that these types of strollers aren't as adept at walking through the narrow aisles of supermarkets, and may struggle to handle a lot of shopping. It's a bit easier to turn around on the smallest of curved paths however, even this can be a challenge. Some are also more easy to turn than others, like the Thule Urban Glide 2 Double and the Baby Trend Sit N' Stand Double, for example.

Convertible

The benefit of convertible double pushchairs is that they can adapt to changing family needs. They typically start as single buggies, but have adapters that allow you to add the second seat, a carrycot, or (in certain instances) a car seat to the frame. Some can be converted back to a single when your child's older age begins to walk or prefers to ride a buggyboard.

This stylish tri-fold double stroller is one of the lightest on our list. It can hold up to 40lbs per child and has a storage basket between the seats. The spacious canopy with peekaboo window, multi-position reclining seats and a front and back suspensions for smoother rides on rough terrain were praised by home testers. It also comes with a handy cup holder for the parent and a large, easy-to-access basket. However, they pointed out that the seats' backs have small 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. Its impressive features include an ergonomic handlebar with a high profile for better steering; front and rear suspension to smooth rough terrain; a self-standing, compact fold with handy straps for easy schlepping; and seven-inch swing lock front wheels and 10-inch back wheels with suspension to provide a more comfortable ride. The only drawback is that you'll need buy a separate baby carrier or car seat.

This multi-functional tandem is a top pick 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. It is a breeze to maneuver due to its light weight (about the equivalent of some single pushchairs). The seats are reversible, which means that you can flip them to face either way, and the clever method by which it attaches a second seat or riding board to the rear is highly praised by many. Parents also liked the fact that it could accommodate infant carriers and car seats from various brands, including some which aren't usually fit into other double buggies.
