Which Lightweight Double Pushchair Should You Buy?

It's easy to move around in the lightweight double pushchair especially if you have kids of varying ages. They're generally easy to fold, steer and transport up and down stairs.

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

Side-by-Side

The majority of lightweight cheap double pushchair pushchairs we've tested are side-by-side models and are generally recommended for kids who can stand up without assistance since these models aren't equipped with car seat integration. The Thule Urban Glide 2 Double, and Baby Trend Sit 'N Stand Double, are both excellent options. They have recline that can be adjusted for both seats, a huge canopy, and padded 5-point safety harnesses. These are also easy to move around despite their larger footprint. They are great for parents who worry about fitting through doors.

The Cybex Duet pushchair is unique because it has a clever frame that expands to add a second child seat. This makes it lighter than other pushchairs that are side-by-side. This means it fits through doors that are standard and is easy to move around on public transport. It's also a jogger, which is great news if you want to use it with baby carriers or a car seat. It's available in a range of fun colors.

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

If you prefer a more compact and lightweight double, you can try the egg2 that folds down to the size of a small suitcase. It can be used as a single or a double with the addition of two carrycots or infant car seats, and our home testers were awed by how simple and sleek it was to carry even when stuffed with kids.

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

Tandem

While side-by-side models are better suited for siblings with similar ages, tandem lightweight double pushchairs (Jejucordelia said in a blog post) have their own charms. They can accommodate a larger car seat, and some even have reversible seats or an extra carrycot that is located in the middle. They tend to be more spacious and easy to move into and out of however their baskets are typically smaller than those of single buggies. Many also feature more generously sized canopies with peekaboo windows as well as a cup holder for the parent and cushioned leg cushions for the young children.

The iCandy Peach is another example of a lightweight twin stroller and affordable tandem. The fabric is a little less premium than some of our other top-rated tandems, but it still looks and feels great and is very easy to use. 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 can't be folded when it is attached. However, the process to attach and remove the carrycot is easy and quick.

Tandem lightweight double pushchairs will typically make tighter turns than side-byside models, however they are more difficult to drive over bumps and uneven surfaces. They can also be slightly slower to accelerate and may be heavier to move, which can cause stress on your back.

Another alternative is a convertible double buggy that starts out as one-person, but you can add adapters that turn it into a double. It can have the option of a second seat or carrycot in front or the kids can be seated side-by-side. Some of them also have the option to add buggy boards that could help older children keep up with younger siblings.

The Uppababy Vista V2 can be transformed into a twin-sized pushchair by purchasing additional cocoons for PS59 each. These cocoons provide an area that is flat for newborns. They can be positioned side by side or attached to face each other and you can use them with the baby car seat that comes with the pushchair (as as long as you choose the right one). These buggies with dual-use capabilities are made from high-quality materials and can be used for a long time without showing any wear. This means they come with the highest resale value.

Single-to-Double

For families who love the outdoors and want to upgrade from a single stroller, this lightweight double buggy turns into a jogger with the help of a nifty kit that includes air-filled tyres as well as all-wheel suspension. It can also handle rough terrain well and it's a tandem triple that, is perfect for twins or children of various ages. It's also a good choice for parents looking for a stylish design that's as elegant as a single and comes in a variety of colors for the fabric.

This iCandy model is easy to fold using a single-handed system. Although it's heavier than the other single-to-double pushchairs in this review, home tester Karolina stated that it feels very maneuverable - even when she had two toddlers and a carrycot in it.

You can purchase additional items such as the Roma Gemini Carrycots (PS100) which are perfect for newborns. The seats are comfortable for toddlers and come with excellent headrests and lumbar support. There are a variety of options to recline the seats with the front seat can be adjusted to different positions, and the back seat having a reclining option.

This type of buggy comes with the main disadvantage of being a bit wider than doubles that are side-by-side. This makes it difficult to navigate through doorways and it can be difficult to get up and down kerbs. The wheels and suspension of these types of strollers are generally able to cope with paved surfaces. They're also lighter than most side-by-sides, so you can still have plenty of storage. These strollers aren't easy to maneuver around supermarkets with narrow aisles and they can be difficult to carry a lot. Although it's much easier to turn the stroller around on a narrow, curving path, this can still be a challenge. Some are more easy to turn than others models, like the Thule Urban Glide 2 Double or the Baby Trend Sit N' Stand double travel buggy.

Convertible

The great thing about convertible double pushchairs is that they can adapt to a family's changing requirements. They are typically single buggies, and come with adapters that allow you to add a second child's seat or carrycot, or (in some cases) a car-seat to the frame. Some can be converted to a single when your child's older age begins to walk or prefers to ride buggyboards.

This stylish tri-fold double buggy with carrycot stroller can be described as one of the lightest strollers on our list. It can carry up to 40 pounds per child and comes with an extra storage basket in between the seats. The large canopy with a peekaboo window, multi-position reclining chairs and front and back suspensions for smoother rides on rough terrain were well-loved by testers at home. It also has an easy-to-use cup holder for parents, and a large, easily accessible basket. They also noted that the backs of the bags have small pockets that are just big enough to fit a phone and keys.

This top-of-the-line, lightweight side-byside can be used in more than 20 different configurations, and comes with an additional seat and carrycot. It features a high-profile steering handlebar, rear and front suspensions that smooth rough terrain, it folds compactly and stands up on its own with straps that make it easy to transportation, and seven-inch front wheel with swivel locks and 10 inches back wheels with suspensions to ensure more comfortable riding. The only drawback is that you'll need 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 has a large shopping basket that is accessible 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 people praise the clever way it connects the second seat or riding board to the back. Parents also liked the fact that it could accommodate infant car seats and carriers from multiple brands, including those that don't normally fit in other double buggies.
