Which Lightweight Double Pushchair Should You Buy?

A light double pushchair makes it easy to get around, particularly if you have children of different age groups. They are generally easy to steer, fold and transport up and down the stairs.

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

Side-by-Side

The majority of the light double pushchairs that we tested were side-by-side models. These are best for children who can Sit N Stand Double Stroller up without assistance, as they lack car seat compatibility. That said there are some exceptions. Thule Urban Glide 2 Double and Baby Trend Sit 'N Stand Double are both excellent options that offer adjustable recline in both seats, a huge canopy and padded 5-point harnesses. They are also simple to maneuver despite their bigger footprint. They are great for parents who worry about fitting through doors.

The Cybex Duet is a little different due to its clever frame that extends its width to create a second seat, which makes it lighter than other pushchairs with side-by-side seating on the market. It is able to pass through doors of standard size and is easy to maneuver in public transport. It can also be used as a jogger which is great for those who plan to use it in conjunction with an infant car seat or a baby carrier.

The UPPAbaby Vista v2 double is another fantastic side-by-side double that is lightweight. It offers an even greater degree of customization due to the modular frame. It features a clever design that allows you to turn it into a single buggy or a double by incorporating two car seats or carrycots (it can even accommodate twins). It is a practical option for families that are growing. The UPPAbaby umbrella stroller is also one of the lightest, most compact double stroller stylish and fashionable strollers you can find.

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

Double pushchairs with side-by-side seating aren't foolproof, though -If your children are of the same age or stage they might still argue over who is allowed to ride in which seat. If they are at different heights, then a tandem double buggy style may be the best option for them, since it lets them face each other.

Tandem

While side-by-side models may be more appropriate for siblings of the same age tandem pushchairs are light and lightweight, and offer their own perks. Some can fit a larger car seat and others come with seats that can be reversible. Others have an extra carrycot or a convertible seat in the middle. They are generally more spacious and simple to get in and out of however their baskets tend to be smaller than those of single buggies. They often have larger canopy as well as peekaboo windows, and even padded leg cushions.

The iCandy Peach is another example of a good-value lightweight tandem. The fabrics are a little less luxurious than those of some of our top-rated doubles. However, it looks fantastic and is simple to use. One of the most impressive aspects about it is its one-handed fold. Although it will require some practice, Kirstie in our Lab declared it to be "genius". It can't be folded without the carrycot attached, but the mechanism for attaching and taking it off it is simple and fast.

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

Another option is a convertible double buggy, which starts off as a single and then you add adapters to turn it into a double. It can have an additional seat or carrycot in the front or the kids can be seated side-by-side. Some have the option of including a buggyboard that 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. These cocoons create a flat space for newborns. They can be joined or placed side-by-side. You can also use the car seat that was included with the pushchair, in the event that it is compatible. Since they are made of high-quality materials, these kinds of dual-use buggies can often be used for many years without displaying much wear, which means they have a an excellent potential for resale.

Single-to-Double

This light double buggy was designed for outdoor-loving family who are looking to upgrade from a single-stroller. It can be transformed into a jogger with the kit that comes with air-filled tires as well as all terrain double stroller-wheel suspension. It is also a good option for twins or children of different age groups and as a triple tandem, it is able to be able to handle the rough terrain. It's also a good choice for parents looking for an elegant design that's as sleek as a single and comes in a variety of fabrics.

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

You can purchase additional items such as the Roma Gemini Carrycots (PS100) which are great for babies. Our panel of testers found that the seats were comfortable for toddlers and had good headrests and lumbar support. And there are plenty of options for reclining, with the front seat being able to be adjusted to different positions and the rear seat having the option to recline.

The main drawback to this kind of buggy is that it is generally larger overall than doubles that are side-by-side which makes it more difficult to get through doorways and is difficult to maneuver around kerbs. The wheels and suspension of these models are generally good at coping with pavements. They're also lighter than many side-by-sides, so you can still get a lot of storage. It's important to remember that strollers of this type aren't as good at walking through the narrow aisles of supermarkets, and may struggle to handle a large amount of shopping. Although it's easier to turn the stroller around on a small curved path, it can be a hassle. Some are also more easy to turn than others, like the Thule Urban Glide 2 double single pushchair and Baby Trend Sit N' Stand Double, for instance.

Convertible

The best thing about convertible double pushchairs is that they can adapt to the changing family needs. They often start out as single buggies, and include adapters to add the second seat, carrycot or (in certain cases) the car seat to the frame. Some even convert to a single buggie when your child gets older and starts to walk more or prefers to ride on a buggy board.

This stylish tri-fold double stroller is one of the lightest strollers on our list. It can carry up to 40lbs per child and comes with an extra storage basket in between the seats. The spacious canopy with peekaboo window, multi-position reclining chairs as well as front and back suspension for smoother riding on rough terrain were well-loved by testers at home. It also has a convenient cup holder for parents and a large, easy-to access basket. They did note that the backs of the bags have small pockets which are only sufficient to hold a phone and a set of keys.

This high-end, lightweight side-by-side can be used in more than 20 configurations and comes with two seats and a carrycot. It features a high-profile steering handlebar, front and rear suspensions to smooth rough terrain and an ultra-compact fold that stands up on its own with straps for easy transport and seven-inch front wheels with swivel locks and 10 inches back wheels with suspensions to ensure a smoother ride. The only drawback is that you will need to purchase a separate car seat or baby carrier.

This versatile tandem is the top pick of our home testers because it is simple to maneuver and features an enormous shopping basket that is accessible from both seats when they are in the parent-facing position. It is easy to move around due to its low weight (about the weight of a few single pushchairs). Many have praised the clever way it connects the second seat or riding board in the back. Parents also appreciated the fact that it can accommodate infant car seats and carriers from multiple brands, including some which aren't usually fit into other double buggies.
