Which Lightweight Double Pushchair Should You Buy?

A compact double pushchair is easy to get around, particularly for families with children of various age groups. They're typically simple to steer, fold and carry up and down the 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 can expand in width to accommodate a second seat, and also a compatible car seat(s).

Side-by-Side

The majority of lightweight double pushchairs we test are side-byside models and are best double strollers suited for children who can stand up without assistance, as these models tend to lack car seat integration. The Thule Urban Glide 2 Double, and Baby Trend Sit 'N Stand Double, are both excellent options. They offer adjustable recline for both seats, a large canopy, and padded 5-point safety harnesses. These are also easy to maneuver despite their bigger footprint. They are great for parents who are worried about getting through doors.

The Cybex Duet is a little different because its clever frame extends its width to create another seat, which makes it lighter than other pushchairs with side-by-side seating on the market. It is able to fit through doors that are standard and is easy to maneuver in public transport. It also doubles as a jogger which is great news for those who want to use it with a baby carrier or infant car seat, and comes in a range of fun colors.

The UPPAbaby Vista v2 double is another fantastic side-by-side double that is lightweight. It provides an even greater degree of customization due to a modular frame. It has a smart design that lets you transform it into a single stroller or a double infant stroller with the addition of 2 carrycots or car seats (it can even take twins). It's a good option for families that are growing. The UPPAbaby umbrella stroller is one of the lightest, most stylish and stylish strollers available.

Try the egg2 which folds down to the size and weight of a tiny suitcase. It can be used as a single or double by adding 2 carrycots or baby car seats. Our home testers were impressed with the ease of move even with a full load of kids.

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 fight about who sits in which spot. And if they're at different heights it could be that a tandem design might be more suitable for them since it allows them to look at each other.

Tandem

While side-byside models might be more suitable for siblings of the same age tandem pushchairs that are lightweight have their own charms. Some can fit carseats that are larger, and some have reversible seats. Some even come with an additional carrycot or reclined seat that can be flipped in the middle. They tend to be more spacious and easier to access and exit from however their baskets are typically smaller than those on single buggies. They often have larger big canopies with windows that peek out as well as a cup holder for parents and padding for the legs of young children.

The iCandy Peach is another example of a lightweight and affordable tandem. The fabrics are less luxurious than those of some of our top-rated doubles. However, it still looks great and is easy to use. Its one-handed folding is awe-inspiring. Although it takes some time to master, Kirstie from our Lab called it "genius". It can't be folded with the carrycot attached but the mechanism for attaching and removing it is easy and quick.

Tandem strollers that are lightweight usually make tighter turning than side-by-side models. However, they could be more difficult to drive on uneven surfaces or curbs. They may also be a little slower to pick up speed and are heavier to move, which could put strain 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 have an additional seat or carrycot in the front or children can sit side-by-side. Some of them also offer the option of incorporating buggy boards that could help older children keep up with a younger sibling.

The Uppababy Vista V2 is a great 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 provide a flat space for infants. They can be joined or placed on top of each other. You can also use the car seat that was included with the pushchair, if it is compatible. These dual-use buggies are made of quality materials and can last for a long time without showing any wear. This means that they have the highest resale value.

Single-to-Double

Designed for outdoor-loving families who 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 can also handle rough terrain well and, as a tandem triple, is perfect for twins or children of different ages. It's a great option for parents who want a stylish design that is as simple as a single. It comes in different fabric colours.

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

The seat can be used parent-facing, and you can also purchase accessories for this stroller like the Roma Gemini carrycots (PS100 each) that are perfect for babies. The seats are comfortable for toddlers and come with excellent headrests and lumbar support. There are a variety of options for reclined seats, with the front seat adjustable in various positions and the back seat also having an option to recline.

The main drawback to this kind of buggy is that it's generally larger overall than doubles that are side-by-side, which makes it harder to get through doorways and is difficult to maneuver around kerbs. The suspension and wheels of these types of strollers are generally good at coping with surfaces that are paved. They're also lighter than many side-bysides and, therefore, you can have plenty of storage space. It's important to remember that these strollers aren't as efficient in getting through narrow aisles in supermarkets, and may struggle to cope with a lot of shopping. It's a bit easier to turn them around on the smallest of curved paths but even this can be difficult. Some are also easier to turn than others, such as the Thule Urban Glide 2 Double and Baby Trend Sit N' Stand Double, for instance.

Convertible

The great thing about convertible double pushchairs is the ability to adapt to a family's changing requirements. They often start out as single buggies, and come with adapters to add an additional seat, a carrycot, or (in certain 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 a buggy board.

This stylish tri-fold double stroller is one of the lightest on our list. It can hold up to 40 lbs per child and has an integrated storage basket between the seats. Home testers appreciated its large canopy with windows that peek out multi-position reclining seats, as well as front and rear suspensions for smoother rides on rough terrain. It also has a convenient parent cup holder, and an enormous easy-to-access basket. However, they pointed out that the seats' backs have tiny pockets that are not big enough to hold more than a smartphone and keys.

This top-of-the-line, lightweight side-byside can be used in more than 20 different configurations and includes two seats and a carrycot. It has a high-profile steering handlebar, rear and front suspensions to smooth out rough terrain and an ultra-compact fold that can stand on its own with straps to make it easy to transport and seven-inch front wheels with swivel locks, and 10-inch back wheels that have suspensions for an easier ride. The only drawback is that you'll need to purchase a separate car seat or baby carrier.

This multi-functional tandem is a popular choice among our home testers for its maneuverability and large shopping basket, which is accessible with both seats in the parent-facing position. Its extremely light weight (about the same as some single pushchairs) makes it a breeze to maneuver. Many people praise the clever method of attaching the second seat or riding board in the back. Parents also loved 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.
