Which Lightweight Double Pushchair Should You Buy?

A lightweight double pushchair makes it simple to move around, especially for families with children of different age groups. They are easy to fold, steer and carry up and down the stairs.

This City Mini GT2 offers side-by-side seats with plenty of legroom, adjustable reclining and huge UPF 50+ canopies with windows that peek out. It also has a frame that expands in the width to accommodate an additional car seat or another passenger.

Side-by-Side

The majority of the lightweight Double Buggy Converts To Single pushchairs we tested were side-by-side models. These are the best for children who can sit without assistance, as they tend to lack compatibility with car seats. The Thule Urban Glide 2 Double, and Baby Trend Sit 'N Stand Double, are both excellent choices. They come with an recline that can be adjusted for both seats, a big canopy, and padded five-point safety harnesses. They are also simple to maneuver despite their bigger footprint. They are ideal for parents who worry about getting through doors.

The Cybex Duet is a little different because its clever frame expands in width to accommodate a second seat, which makes it lighter than other pushchairs with side-by-side seating on the market. This means it fits through doors that are standard and is easy to maneuver on public transport. It can also be used as a jogger, which is great news if you want to use it in conjunction with a baby carrier or infant car seat. It's available in a range of fun colors.

The UPPAbaby Vista v2 double is another fantastic side-by-side double that is lightweight. It provides additional flexibility due to a modular frame. It features a clever design that lets you turn it into a single stroller or a double by adding 2 carrycots or car seats (it can even accommodate twins). It's a fantastic and practical choice for growing families and the UPPAbaby makes one of the lightest and stylish umbrella strollers around.

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

stokke double stroller pushchairs with side-by-side seating aren't 100% foolproof, howeverwhen your children are at the same age or stage, they may still fight over who gets to ride in which seat. And if they're different heights, a tandem model could be better for them, as it will allow them to face each other.

Tandem

While side-by-side models are best for children of similar age, tandem lightweight double strollers have their own appeal. Some can fit a larger car seat and some have seats that can be reversible. Some even come with an extra carrycot or a convertible seat in the middle. They are bigger, and easier to get in and out of. However the baskets they use tend to be smaller than those on single buggies. Many have larger canopies as well as peekaboo windows, and even cushioned leg cushions.

The iCandy Peach tandem is another good example of a lightweight tandem that offers excellent value. The fabrics are less luxurious than some of our top-rated doubles. However, it looks fantastic and is simple to use. Its one-handed folding is awe-inspiring. While it requires some time to master, Kirstie from our Lab described it as "genius". It's not possible to fold it with the carrycot attached however the mechanism for attaching and taking it off it is easy and quick.

Tandem strollers are light and lightweight. They generally have a more precise turning compared to side-byside models. However, they can be difficult to drive on uneven surfaces or curbs. They can also be slightly slower to accelerate and can be heavier to move, which could put strain on your back.

Another option is a convertible double buggy, which is initially one-person, but you can add adapters to make it into a double. It can have a second seat or carrycot on the front, or the children can be seated side-byside. Some also have the option of adding buggy boards, which could help older children keep up with a younger sibling.

The Uppababy Vista V2 is a good example of a convertible, because it can also be converted into a twin strollers for newborns pram by the purchase of additional cocoons (PS59 each) that create a lie-flat space for infants. They can be joined or placed side-by-side. You can also use the car seat that was included with the pushchair, when it's compatible. As they're made with quality materials, these kinds of buggies that are dual-use can be used for a long time without showing any wear, meaning they have the highest price resales.

Single-to-Double

For families who love the outdoors and are looking to upgrade their single stroller, this lightweight double buggy with car seat buggy can be converted into a jogger thanks to an innovative kit that includes air-filled tyres and all-wheel suspension. It's also a great choice for twins, or children from different age groups and as triple tandem, it can take on rough terrain. It's also a good option for parents who are looking for an elegant design that's as elegant as a single and is available in a range of fabrics.

This iCandy model is easy to fold using the use of a single hand. It's heavier than other single-to double pushchairs, but our home test Karolina says it's capable of maneuvering even with two toddlers inside and a carrycot.

The seat can be used parent-facing and you can buy add-ons for this stroller, such as the Roma Gemini carrycots (PS100 each) which are great for newborns. The seats are comfortable for toddlers and come with high-quality headrests and lumbar supports. There are a variety of options for reclining and recline, with the front seat adjusting to various positions and the rear seat offering the option of recline.

The main drawback to this kind of buggy is that it tends to be wider overall than side-by-side doubles and makes it difficult to navigate through doorways and can be difficult to maneuver around kerbs. However, the wheels and suspension are generally able to perform well in handling paved surfaces, and the fact that they're much lighter than some of the side-bysides means that you still have plenty of storage space. These strollers can be difficult to maneuver in 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, it can be a challenge. Some are also more easy to turn than others, such as the Thule Urban Glide 2 Double 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 requirements. Most of the time, they begin as single buggies, and come with adapters that allow you to include a second child's seat or carrycot, or (in some instances) a car-seat to the frame. Some even convert to a single buggie 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 can carry children as heavy as 40 pounds each and features an easy-to-use basket between the seats for storage. Home users loved its spacious canopy that has windows that can be seen from the outside with multi-position reclining seats as well as front and rear suspensions for smoother rides on rough terrain. It also comes with a handy cup holder for the parent, and a large easy-to-access basket. The backs have tiny pockets, which are only large enough to hold phones and keys.

This premium, lightweight side-by-side can be used in more than 20 different configurations, and comes with an additional seat and carrycot. Its impressive set of features includes a high-profile handlebar for easier steering as well as rear and front suspensions to smooth rough terrain; a self-standing compact fold with handy straps for easy schlepping and seven-inch swivel lock front wheels and 10-inch back wheels with suspension to provide a more comfortable ride. The only drawback is that you'll have to purchase a separate baby carrier or car seat.

This multi-functional tandem is the top pick of our home testers because it is easy to maneuver and has a large basket for shopping that can be accessed from both seats when in the parent-facing positions. Its lightweight weight (about the same as a few single pushchairs) makes it a breeze to maneuver. The seats are reversible, which means that you can switch them around to face either direction, and the clever way that it connects the second seat or riding board to the rear is praised by many. Parents also liked the fact that it can accommodate infant carriers and car seats from various brands, including some which aren't usually fit into other double buggies.
