Which Lightweight Double Pushchair Should You Buy?

It's easy to move around in the lightweight double pushchair especially if you have kids 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 windows that peek out. It also has a clever frame that expands widthways to accommodate a second car seat and compatible car seat(s).

Side-by-Side

Most of the lightweight double pushchairs we tried were side-by-side models. These are best double strollers for children who can sit up without assistance, since they lack compatibility with car seats. That said they do have a few advantages. Thule Urban Glide 2 Double and the Baby Trend Sit 'N Stand Double are both excellent options that offer recline that can be adjusted in both seats, a huge canopy and padded 5-point harnesses. They're also easy to maneuver despite their larger footprint and are perfect for parents who worry about fitting through doorways.

The Cybex Duet is a little different because its clever frame expands widthways to add another seat, which makes it lighter than other pushchairs with side-by-side seating on the market. It can be pushed through standard doorways and is easy to maneuver on public transportation. It also doubles as an jogger which is perfect for those who plan to use it with an infant car seat or a baby carrier.

Another fantastic side-by-side light double is the UPPAbaby Vista v2 Double, that offers more customization through a modular frame. The clever design allows you to transform it into an individual or double buggy by adding two carrycots or child car seats. It can even accommodate twins. It is a practical option for families that are growing. The umbrella stroller UPPAbaby is one of the lightest, sexiest and fashionable strollers you can find.

If you're looking for a more compact and lightweight double, you can try the egg2 which folds down to the size of a small suitcase. It can be used as a single or a double with the addition of 2 carrycots or infant car seats and our home testers were awed by the sleek and easy it was to handle even when loaded with kids.

Although they're light, double pushchairs that are side-by-side aren't foolproof. If your children are of the same age and stage, they might be fighting over who gets to sit in which spot. And if they're at different heights, a tandem style might be better for them, as it allows them to face each other.

Tandem

While side-byside models are more suited to siblings of the same age, tandem lightweight double strollers have their own charms. They can be fitted with a larger car seat, and some even have convertible seats or an additional carrycot that is located in the middle. They are larger and easy to get in and out of. However their baskets tend to be smaller than those found on buggies that are single. They often have larger canopy, peekaboo windows and even padded leg cushions.

The iCandy Peach tandem is another good example of a lightweight tandem that provides an excellent value. The fabric is a bit less expensive than some of our top-rated doubles. However, it looks great and is easy to use. Its one-handed folding is impressive. Even though it requires some practice, Kirstie from our Lab called it "genius". It's not possible to fold it with the carrycot attached however, the mechanism for attaching and removing it is simple and quick.

Tandem strollers that are lightweight usually make tighter turning than side-by-side models. However, they can be more difficult to drive on uneven surfaces or curbs. They can also be slower to accelerate and heavier to move. This puts strain on your back.

Another option is a convertible double buggy, that starts out as one-person, but you can add adapters to make it into a double buggy with carrycot. This can include a second seat or carrycot in front or children can be seated side-by-side. Some of them also have the option of adding a buggy board, which can help an older child keep up with younger siblings.

The Uppababy Vista V2 can be transformed into a twin-sized stroller by purchasing additional cocoons for PS59 each. These cocoons provide an area that is flat for newborns. They can be attached together or placed in a row. You can also use the car seat that was included with the pushchair, when it's compatible. Because they're made from high-quality materials, these buggies with dual-use capabilities can be used for years without showing much wear, which means they have a high resale value.

Single-to-Double

This compact double buggy was designed for families who love the outdoors and would like to upgrade from a single-stroller. It can be converted into a jogger using kits that include air-filled tires as well as all-wheel suspension. It is also a good choice for twins, or children of different ages, and as a triple tandem, it is able to handle rough terrain. It's an excellent choice for parents who want a stylish design as sleek as a single and comes in different fabric colours.

This iCandy model is incredibly easy to fold with a one-handed system. It's also heavier than other pushchairs that are single-to-double in this review, home tester Karolina said that it still feels extremely maneuverable, even with two toddlers and a carrycot inside.

The seat can be used as a parent-facing and you can purchase additional accessories for this stroller like the Roma Gemini carrycots (PS100 each) that are perfect for babies. Our test panel found that the seats were comfortable for toddlers, with good lumbar support and headrests. And there are a variety of options for recline and recline, with the front seat being adjustable to different positions, and the rear seat having a recline option.

This type of buggy comes with the biggest disadvantage of being a bit wider than doubles that are side-by-side. This makes it difficult to navigate through doorways and it can be difficult to get up and down kerbs. The wheels and suspension of these types of strollers are generally good at coping with surfaces that are paved. They're also lighter than most side-by-sides and, therefore, you can have plenty of storage. These strollers double can be difficult to maneuver around supermarkets with narrow aisles and they might struggle to carry a lot. Although it's much easier to turn the stroller around on a small curved path, this can be a challenge. Some are also more easy to turn than others, with the Thule Urban Glide 2 double buggy sale and the Baby Trend Sit N' Stand Double, for instance.

Convertible

The great thing about convertible double pushchairs is that they can adapt to changing family needs. They are typically single buggies, and come with adapters that allow you to include a second child's seat, a carrycot, or (in some instances) a car-seat to the frame. Some even convert to a single when your older child begins to walk or prefers to ride on buggy boards.

One of the lightest double strollers on our list, this fashionable tri-fold model is able to hold children as heavy as 40 pounds each. It comes with a handy basket in between the seats to store things. The large canopy with a peekaboo window, multi-position reclining seats as well as front and back suspensions for smoother rides on rough terrain were praised by testers at home. It also comes with a handy cup holder for the parent and a large, easy-to access basket. However, they pointed out that the backs of the seats have small pockets that are not big enough to hold more than a smartphone and keys.

This premium, lightweight side-by-side can be used in more than 20 configurations and includes a second seat and carrycot. It has a high-profile steering handlebar, front and rear suspensions that smooth rough terrain and a best compact double stroller fold that can stand on its own with straps that make it easy to transportation, and seven-inch front wheel with swivel locks and ten-inch back wheels with suspensions for more comfortable riding. The only downside is that you'll need to purchase a separate baby carriage or car seat.

This multi-functional tandem is the top pick of our home testers because it is simple to maneuver and features a large shopping basket that is accessible from both seats when they are in the parent-facing position. It is easy to move around due to its low weight (about the weight of a few single pushchairs). Reversible seats mean you can flip them to face either way, and the clever way that it can attach an additional seat or riding board to the rear is appreciated by many. Parents also appreciated the fact that it can accommodate infant carriers and car seat from multiple brands. This includes a few that aren't normally compatible with other double buggies.
