Which Lightweight Double Pushchair Should You Buy?

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

This City Mini GT2 features side-by-side seating with plenty of legroom. It also has adjustable reclining, large UPF 50+ canopies and peekaboo windows. It also features a smart frame that expands widthways to accommodate a second seat and a compatible car seat(s).

side by side double stroller-by-Side

The majority of lightweight double pushchairs we tested are side-by-side models and they're generally best for children who can stand up without assistance since these models tend to lack car seat integration. The Thule Urban Glide 2 Double and the Baby Trend Sit 'N Stand Double, are both excellent options. They offer adjustable recline for both seats, a huge canopy, and padded five-point safety harnesses. They're also easy to move despite their larger footprints and are perfect for parents worried about fitting through doors.

The Cybex Duet is a little different due to its unique frame that extends its width to create another seat, which makes it lighter than other pushchairs with side-by-side seating on the market. This means it fits through standard doors and is easy to maneuver on public transportation. It's also 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 available in a variety of exciting colors.

The UPPAbaby Vista v2 double is another great side-by-side, lightweight double. It allows for additional flexibility due to the modular frame. Its clever design lets you to convert it into a single or double 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 also makes one of the tiniest and most fashionable umbrella strollers on the market.

If you're looking for a compact lightweight double, try the egg2 which folds to the size of a compact suitcase. It can be used either as a single or double by adding 2 baby car seats or carrycots. Our test subjects were awed by the ease of move even with a full load of kids.

Side-by-side lightweight double pushchairs aren't foolproof however -when your children are of the same age or stage, they may still fight over who is allowed to ride in which seat. If they're at different heights, a tandem style may be ideal for them as it allows them to face each other.

Tandem

While side-by-side models may be more appropriate for siblings with similar ages, tandem lightweight double pushchairs are a different kind of pushchair with their own appeal. They can take a bigger car seat, and some come with reversible seats or an extra carrycot in the middle. They tend to be more spacious and easier to get in and out of however their baskets tend to be smaller than those on single buggies. Many feature larger canopies with windows that peek out and padding for the leg cushions.

The iCandy Peach tandem is another excellent example of a light tandem that offers excellent value. The fabric is a little less luxurious than our other top-rated doubles however, it still looks and feels great and is user-friendly. 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 process to attach and remove the carrycot is simple and quick.

Tandem lightweight double pushchairs will generally have tighter turns than side-byside models, however, they can be more difficult to drive on bumps and uneven surfaces. They can also be slower to accelerate and are heavier to move. This puts strain on your back.

Another alternative is a convertible double buggy which is initially a single and then you add adapters to turn it into a double. It could have an additional seat, a carrycot or both in front. The children can be seated together. Some have the option of including a buggyboard, which helps an older child keep pace with younger siblings or brothers.

The Uppababy Vista V2 is a great example of a convertible as it can also convert into a twin pushchair pram by the purchase of additional cocoons (PS59 each) that provide a flat space for infants. They can be attached together or placed side-by-side. You can also use the car seat that came with the pushchair if it is compatible. These buggies for dual-use are made from high-quality materials that can be used for a long time without showing any wear. This means they have an excellent resale value.

Single-to-Double

This lightweight double buggy is designed for outdoor-loving family who would like to upgrade from an individual-stroller. It can be converted into a jogger with the kit that comes with air-filled tires and all terrain double stroller-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 option for parents who are looking for an elegant design that's as sleek as a single and comes in a variety of fabrics.

We were impressed by the way this iCandy model folds up using a single-hand mechanism that's very simple to master. It's heavier than other single-to-double pushchairs, but our home test Karolina says it's still very mobile even with two toddlers inside and a carrycot.

The seat can be used with the parent facing, and you can also buy add-ons for this stroller, such as the Roma Gemini carrycots (PS100 each), which are ideal for babies. Our test panel found the seats to be comfortable for toddlers and had good lumbar support and headrests. And there are a variety of options for reclining and recline, with the front seat adjusting to various positions and the rear seat offering a recline option.

This type 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 can be difficult to move between kerbs. The wheels and suspension of these strollers are generally good at coping with pavements. They're also lighter than many side-by-sides and, therefore, you can have plenty of storage space. These strollers aren't easy to maneuver around supermarkets with narrow aisles and they might struggle to carry loads. It's a little easier to turn around on the smallest curves of paths however, it can be difficult to turn them around on a straight path. Some are easier to turn than other models, like the Thule Urban Glide 2 Double or the Baby Trend Sit N' Stand Double.

Convertible

The best thing about convertible double pushchairs is that they are able to adapt to the changing family requirements. They typically start as single buggies, but have adapters that allow you to add an additional seat, a carrycot, or (in some cases) a car seat to the frame. Some can even convert back to a single as your child grows older and begins to walk or prefers to ride on a buggy board.

One of the lightest double strollers on our list, this sleek tri-fold model can carry children up to 40lbs each and features an easy-to-use basket between the seats to store things. The spacious canopy with a peekaboo window, multi-position reclining seats as well as front and back suspensions to ensure smoother and more comfortable riding on rough terrain were praised by the home testers. It also has a handy cup holder for the parent, and an ample easy-to-access basket. They also noted that the backs have tiny pockets, which are just big enough to fit a phone and keys.

This lightweight, high-end side-by-side is available in more than 20 configurations. It also includes a second chair and carrycot. It features a high-profile steering handlebar, rear and front suspensions to smooth rough terrain and it folds compactly and can be folded up with straps to make it easy to transport and seven-inch front wheels with swivel locks as well as 10-inch back wheels that have suspensions to ensure more comfortable riding. The only drawback is that you'll need purchase a separate baby carriage or car seat.

This multi-functional tandem is the most popular of our home testers because it is easy to maneuver and has an enormous shopping basket that is accessible from both seats when in the parent-facing positions. Its light weight (about the same as a few single pushchairs) makes it a breeze to move. Many have praised the clever way it connects the second seat or riding board in the back. Parents also appreciated the fact that it could accommodate infant carriers and car seats from various brands, including some that don't normally fit in other double buggies.
