Which Lightweight Double Pushchair Should You Buy?

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

This City Mini GT2 offers side-by-side seats with plenty of legroom with adjustable reclining, as well as massive UPF 50+ canopy with windows that peek out. It also has a clever frame that can expand in width to accommodate a second car seat and compatible car seat(s).

Side-by-Side

The majority of the lightweight double stroller with bassinet pushchairs we've tested are side-by-side models and are generally recommended for kids who can sit n stand double stroller up unassisted, as these models tend to be lacking car seat integration. The Thule Urban Glide 2 Double and the Baby Trend Sit 'N Stand Double, are both excellent options. They offer recline adjustments for both seats, a big canopy, and padded five-point safety harnesses. They are also simple to move around despite their bigger footprint. They are perfect for parents who worry about getting through doors.

The Cybex Duet is a little different due to its clever frame that expands widthways to add an additional seat, making it smaller than other pushchairs with side-by-side seating on the market. This means it can fit through standard doorways and is easy to move around on public transport. It is also a jogger, which is ideal for those who plan to use it with an infant car seat or carrier.

Another excellent side-by-side lightweight double is the UPPAbaby Vista v2 Double, which allows for even more customization with a modular frame. It's a clever design that allows you to transform it into a single buggy or a double with the addition of 2 carrycots or car seats (it can even accommodate twins). It's a good option for growing families. The UPPAbaby umbrella stroller is one of the lightest, most stylish and most stylish available.

Try the egg2 which folds down to the size and weight of a compact suitcase. It can be used as a single or double by adding 2 carrycots or infant car seats and our home testers were awed by how sleek and simple it was to handle, even when fully loaded with children.

Side-by-side lightweight double pushchairs aren't foolproof, though -If your children are of the same age or at the same stage, they might be fighting over who rides in which seat. If they're different heights it could be that a tandem design might be better for them as it allows them to face each other.

Tandem

While side-by-side models are better suited for siblings with similar ages, tandem lightweight double pushchairs offer their own perks. They can be fitted with a larger car seat, and some even have convertible seats or an additional 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 the ones on single buggies. Many feature larger canopies with windows that peek out and padded leg cushions.

The iCandy Peach is another example of a good-value lightweight tandem. Its fabrics feel 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. One of the most striking things about it is the one-handed fold. While it will require some practice, Kirstie in our Lab said it's "genius". The carrycot can't be folded while it is attached. However, the mechanism to attach and remove the carrycot 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 bumps and uneven surfaces. They are also slightly slower to speed up and are heavier to move, which could result in stress on your back.

A convertible double buggy is a different option. It's initially a single but you can also add adapters to make it double travel stroller. It can also have the option of a second seat, a carrycot or both in the front. Or the children can sit together. Some have the option of including a buggyboard, which helps an older child keep up with a younger brother or sister.

The Uppababy Vista V2 can be transformed into a twin-sized pushchair by purchasing additional cocoons for PS59 each. The cocoons create an open space for infants. They can be swiveled together or placed in a row. You can also use the car seat that came with the pushchair in the event that it is compatible. Since they are made of high-quality materials, these dual-use buggies can often be used for a long time without displaying much wear, meaning they have an excellent resale value.

Single-to-Double

Ideal for families who love to be outdoors and are looking to upgrade their single stroller, this lightweight double buggy can be converted into a jogger with the help of an impressive kit that comes with air-filled tyres as well as all-wheel suspension. It's also a good option for twins or children of different age groups, and as a triple tandem, it is able to handle rough terrain. It's a great choice for parents who want a sleek design as elegant as a single. It comes in different fabric colours.

This iCandy model is very easy to fold with a one-handed system. And although it's heavier than some of the other single-to-double pushchairs in this review, home tester Karolina stated that it feels extremely maneuverable, even with two toddlers and a carrycot in it.

The seat can be used 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 and had good headrests and lumbar support. There are numerous options to recline the seats, with the front seat adjustable in different positions and the back seat also having the option of recline.

The biggest drawback of this kind of buggy is that it is generally larger overall than the side-by-side doubles which makes it more difficult to get through doorways and can be tricky to maneuver up and down kerbs. The suspension and wheels of these types of 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. It's important to keep in mind that these types of strollers aren't as good at walking through the narrow aisles of supermarkets and can struggle to handle a large amount of shopping. It's a bit 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 more easy to turn than other, such as the Thule Urban Glide 2 Double or Baby Trend Sit N' Stand Double.

Convertible

The great thing about convertible double pushchairs is that they are able to adapt to changing family needs. Most of the time, they begin as single buggies. They have adapters that allow you to include a second child's seat or carrycot, or (in certain instances) a car-seat to the frame. Some of them can be converted back to a single when your child gets older and starts to walk more or prefers to ride on buggy boards.

This stylish tri-fold double stroller is among of the lightest strollers on our list. It can support up to 40lbs per child and comes with an extra storage basket in between the seats. The home testers loved the spacious canopy with peekaboo windows 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 the parent, and an ample easy-to-access basket. They did note that the backs have tiny pockets, that are just sufficient to hold the phone and keys.

This top-of-the-line, lightweight side-byside can be used in more than 20 configurations and comes with an additional seat and carrycot. Its impressive features include a handlebar with a high-profile design for easier steering and a rear and front suspension to smooth rough terrain; a self-standing, compact fold with handy straps that make it easy to schlep and seven-inch swivel lock front wheels and back wheels that measure 10 inches with suspension to provide a more comfortable ride. The only downside is that you will need to purchase a separate car seat or baby carrier.

This multi-functional tandem is a popular choice by our home testers due to its maneuverability and large shopping basket that can be accessed with both seats facing towards the parent. Its lightweight weight (about the same as a few single pushchairs) makes it a breeze to move around. Many people praise the clever way it attaches the second seat or riding board to the back. Parents also liked the fact that it could accommodate infant carriers and car seats from multiple brands, including some that aren't typically fit in other double buggies.
