Which Lightweight Double Pushchair Should You Buy?

A compact double pushchair makes it easy to get around, particularly if you have children of different age groups. They're typically simple to fold, steer and carry up and down stairs.

This City Mini GT2 offers side-by-side seats with plenty of legroom and reclining that can be adjusted. It also has massive UPF 50+ canopy with windows that peek out. It also comes with a frame that expands in width to accommodate an additional car seat or an additional passenger.

Side-by-Side

The majority of the light double pushchairs that we tested were side-by-side models. They are ideal for children who can sit without assistance, since they lack compatibility with car seats. The Thule Urban Glide 2 Double and the Baby Trend Sit 'N Stand Double, are both excellent options. They come with an recline adjustments for both seats, a large canopy, and padded five-point safety harnesses. They are also simple to maneuver despite their bigger footprint. They are ideal for parents who fret about fitting through doors.

The Cybex Duet is a little different due to its clever frame that expands widthways to add another seat, making it slimmer than most other side-by-side pushchairs available. It can fit through doors of standard size and is easy to maneuver on public transport. It can also be used as a jogger, which is great if you want to use it with a baby carrier or infant car seat. It's also available in a variety of exciting colors.

Another fantastic side-by-side light double is the UPPAbaby Vista v2 Double, which offers even more customization with a modular frame. Its clever design lets you to convert it into a double or single buggy by adding two carrycots or car seats for children. It can even accommodate twins. It's a fantastic and practical choice for growing families, and the UPPAbaby also is one of the lightest double stroller and most stylish umbrella strollers available.

Try the egg2, which can be folded down to the size and weight of a tiny suitcase. It can be used as a single or double by adding two carrycots or infant car seats and our home testers loved the sleek and easy it was to handle, even when fully loaded with children.

Although they're lightweight double pushchairs that sit side-by-side aren't foolproof. If your children are of the same age and stage, they could still fight about who gets to sit in which seat. If they're at 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 the same age group, tandem light double strollers have their own appeal. Some can accommodate a larger car seat and others have Reversible seats. Others have an additional carrycot or reclined seat that can be flipped in the middle. They tend to be more spacious and easy to get in and out of the baskets, though they tend to be smaller than the ones on single buggies. Many also feature more generously big canopies with windows that peek out as well as a cup holder for parents and padded leg cushions for young children.

The iCandy Peach is another example of a lightweight and affordable tandem. Its fabric feels a bit less luxurious than our other top-rated doubles but it still looks and feels great and is very easy to use. Its one-handed folding is impressive. Even though it requires some time to master, Kirstie from our Lab called it "genius". It's not possible to fold it with the carrycot attached, however, the mechanism for attaching and taking it off it is simple and quick.

Tandem lightweight double strollers will usually make tighter turning than side-byside models. However, they may be harder to drive on uneven surfaces and curbs. They can also be slow to speed up and may be heavier to move, which can put stress on your back.

A convertible double buggy is an additional alternative. It starts out as a single however, you can add adapters to make it a double. These can include the option of a second seat or carrycot on the front or the kids can sit side-by-side. Some of them also offer the option to add buggy boards, which can help older children keep up with younger siblings.

The Uppababy Vista V2 can be converted into a twin buggy-sized pram by purchasing additional cocoons at 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. These buggies for dual-use are made of high-quality materials and can last for many years without showing any wear. This means that they have an excellent resale value.

Single-to-Double

This lightweight double twin buggy is designed for families who love to go on outdoor adventures and would like to upgrade from an individual-stroller. It can be transformed into a jogger with a kit that includes air-filled tires and all-wheel suspension. It also handles rough terrain well and, as a tandem triple, is perfect for twins or children of different ages. It's also a great choice for parents who are looking for an elegant design that's as elegant as a single and comes in a variety of fabric colours.

This iCandy model is very easy to fold with a one-handed system. It's heavier than other single-to-double pushchairs, but home tester Karolina says it's very capable of maneuvering even with two toddlers inside and carrying a carrycot.

The seat can be used parent-facing, and you can also buy add-ons for this stroller, such as the Roma Gemini carrycots (PS100 each) which are great for infants. Our panel of testers found that the seats were comfortable for toddlers, with good headrests and lumbar support. There are many options for recline, with the front seat adjusting to various positions, and the rear seat having the option to recline.

The biggest drawback with 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 up and down kerbs. The suspension and wheels of these strollers tend to be able to deal with paved surfaces. They're also lighter than many side-by-sides, so you can still have plenty of storage. These strollers can be difficult to maneuver in supermarkets with narrow aisles and they might struggle to carry a large amount. It's easier to turn around on the smallest curves of paths but even this can be a challenge. Some are also easier to turn than others, with the Thule Urban Glide 2 Double and the Baby Trend Sit N' Stand Double, for example.

Convertible

The great thing about convertible double pushchairs is that they are able to adapt ready to grow double stroller changing family requirements. They typically start as single buggies, but include adapters to add the second seat, carrycot or (in certain instances) a car seat to the frame. Some are able to be converted to a single when your child reaches the age of walk or chooses to ride a buggyboard.

One of the lightest double twin strollers for newborns on our list, this stylish tri-fold model is able to hold children up to 40 lbs each. It comes with a handy basket in between the seats for storage. The spacious canopy with peekaboo window, multi-position reclining chairs and 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 did note that the backs of the bags have small double buggy pockets that are just big enough to fit the phone and keys.

This light, high-end side-byside is available in more than 20 different configurations. It also comes with a second seat and carrycot. It has a high-profile steering handlebar, rear and front suspensions that smooth rough terrain, a compact fold that can be folded up with straps that make it easy to transport, and seven-inch front wheels with swivel locks and 10-inch back wheels that have suspensions for more comfortable riding. The only downside is that you'll have to buy a separate baby carrier or car seat.

This multi-functional tandem is the most popular of our home testers due to the fact that it is easy to maneuver and comes with a large basket for shopping that can be accessed from both seats when in the parent-facing position. Its surprisingly lightweight 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 loved the fact that it can accommodate infant carriers and car seat from various brands. This includes those that aren't normally compatible with other double buggies.
