Which Lightweight Double Pushchair Should You Buy?

It's easy to move around in a light double pushchair, especially if you have children with different ages. They are generally 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, UPF 50+ canopy, and peekaboo windows. It also comes with an expanding frame size to accommodate an additional car seat or another 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 tend to lack car seat compatibility. That said, the Thule Urban Glide 2 double jogging stroller and the Baby Trend Sit 'N Stand Double are both top choices that have adjustable recline in both seats, a large canopy, and padded 5-point harnesses. These are also easy to maneuver despite their larger footprint. They are great for parents who worry about fitting through doors.

The Cybex Duet pushchair is unique because it has a clever frame that can be expanded to accommodate an additional child seat. This makes it lighter than other pushchairs with side-by-side seating. It can be pushed through standard doorways and is easy to move around on public transport. It's also a jogger, which is great news if you want to use it with an infant carrier or car seat. It's also available in a range of fun colors.

The UPPAbaby Vista v2 double is another great side-by-side, lightweight double. It allows for additional flexibility due to the modular frame. The innovative design allows you to convert it into an individual or double buggy by adding two carrycots or car seats for children. It can even accommodate twins. It's a great option for growing families, and the UPPAbaby also is among the tiniest and most fashionable umbrella strollers available.

If you're looking for a more compact lightweight double, try the egg2 which folds down to the size of a tiny suitcase. It can be used either as a double or a single by adding 2 baby car seats or carrycots. Our home testers were amazed by the ease of maneuver, even with a full load of children.

Even though they are lightweight, double pushchairs that are side-by-side do not guarantee safety. If your children are of the same age and stage, they may still argue over who gets to sit in which position. If they're at different heights then it is possible that a tandem design is ideal for them as it allows them to face eachother.

Tandem

While side-by-side models are best suitable for siblings with similar age, tandem lightweight double strollers have their own appeal. Some can fit an extra car seat, while others come with reversible seats. Some even come with an extra carrycot or a convertible seat in the middle. They tend to be more spacious and easier to get in and out of, although their baskets are usually smaller than those of single buggies. Many have larger canopies as well as peekaboo windows, and even padding for the leg cushions.

The iCandy Peach tandem is another great example of a lightweight tandem that provides excellent value. The fabric is a little less premium than some of our other top-rated doubles, however, it still looks and feels great and is very easy to use. Its one-handed folding is impressive. Although it takes some time to master, Kirstie from our Lab called it "genius". The carrycot is not foldable while it's attached. However, the mechanism to attach and remove the carrycot is easy and quick.

Tandem strollers are light and lightweight. They generally have a more precise turning compared to side-byside models. However, they may be harder to navigate on uneven surfaces and curbs. They can also be slower to accelerate and heavier to move. This can put stress on your back.

Another alternative is a convertible double buggy which starts off as one-person, but you can add adapters that turn it into a double. It can also have an additional seat, a carrycot, or both in front. The children can sit together. Some may have the option of adding a buggyboard, which can help an older child keep pace with siblings who are younger.

The Uppababy Vista V2 is a excellent example of a convertible, because it can also be converted 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 each other's faces, and you can use them in conjunction with the infant car seat that comes with the pushchair (as as long as you choose a compatible one). Because they're made from high-quality materials, these types of buggies with dual-use capabilities can be used for a long time without showing much wear, which means they have a high potential for resale.

Single-to-Double

For families who love the outdoors and are looking to upgrade from a single stroller, this lightweight double buggy transforms 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 of different ages and as triple tandem, it is able to take on rough terrain. It's a great option for parents who want a sleek design as sleek as a single and comes in different fabric colours.

We were impressed by the way this iCandy model folds up with a one-handed mechanism that's extremely easy to master. Although it's heavier than other pushchairs that are single-to-double in this review, our home tester Karolina stated that it feels very maneuverable - even with two toddlers and a carrycot inside.

You can purchase add-ons like the Roma Gemini Carrycots (PS100) which are perfect for newborns. Our panel of testers found that the seats to be comfortable for toddlers, with excellent headrests and lumbar support. There are many options for reclining the seats with the front seat adjustable in different positions and the back seat offering an option to recline.

This kind of buggy has the main disadvantage of being wider than doubles that are side-by-side. This makes it difficult to maneuver through doorways and it can be difficult to move up and down kerbs. However, the wheels and suspension are generally able to do a good job of dealing with pavements and the fact that they're usually lighter than the side-by-sides means you can still have a decent amount of storage space. It's worth bearing in mind that these strollers aren't as adept at walking through the narrow aisles of supermarkets and aren't able to handle a large amount of shopping. It's easier to turn them around on the smallest curves of paths however, even this can be a challenge. Some are more easy to turn than other, such as the Thule Urban Glide 2 Double or Baby Trend sit n stand double stroller N' Stand Double.

Convertible

Convertible double pushchairs are fantastic because they can be adjusted to the changing requirements of a family. They often start out as single buggies, and have adapters that allow you to add a second seat, carrycot or (in certain instances) the car seat to the frame. Some are able to be converted to a single when your older child starts to walk or wants to ride buggyboards.

One of the Lightest Double Stroller double strollers on our list, this sleek tri-fold model can hold children up to 40lbs each. It also has a convenient basket that can be placed between the seats to store things. Home users loved its spacious canopy with peekaboo windows with multi-position reclining seats as well as front and rear suspension for smoother rides on rough terrain. It also has a handy cup holder for parents and an ample, easy-to-access basket. However, they noted that the seats' backs have pockets that aren't big enough to hold much more than a phone and keys.

This high-end, lightweight side-by-side is available in more than 20 models. It also comes with a second chair and carrycot. It features a high-profile steering handlebar, rear and front suspensions that smooth rough terrain, it folds compactly and can be folded up with straps that make it easy to transportation, and seven-inch front wheel with swivel locks as well as ten-inch back wheels with suspensions to ensure more comfortable riding. The only downside is that you'll need to buy a separate baby carrier or car seat.

This multi-functional tandem double stroller is the most popular of our home testers due to the fact that 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. It is simple to maneuver thanks to its light weight (about the equivalent of some single pushchairs). The seats are reversible, which means that they can be switched to face either direction, and the clever method by which it can attach the second seat or riding board to the rear is appreciated by many. Parents also appreciated the fact that it can accommodate infant carriers and car seats from multiple brands. This includes some that are not typically compatible with other double buggies.
