Which Lightweight Double Pushchair Should You Buy?

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

This City Mini GT2 features side-by-side seating with plenty of legroom. It also has adjustable reclining, large UPF 50+ canopy and peekaboo windows. It also has a clever frame that expands widthways to accommodate a second car seat and a compatible car seat(s).

Side-by-Side

The majority of the lightweight double pushchairs that we tested were side-by-side models. These are best for children who can sit without assistance, as 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 have adjustable recline for both seats, a large canopy, and padded five-point safety harnesses. They are also easy to maneuver despite their larger footprint. They are perfect for parents who are worried about fitting through doors.

The Cybex Duet pushchair is unique because it features a unique frame that expands to add an additional child seat. This makes it smaller than other side-byside pushchairs. It can be pushed through standard doorways and is easy to maneuver on 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 carrier.

The UPPAbaby Vista v2 double is another excellent lightweight side-by-side double buggy travel system. It allows for additional flexibility due to a modular frame. The innovative design allows you to transform it into a single or double 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 is among the lightest and stylish umbrella strollers on the market.

If you're looking for a more compact, lightweight double, consider the egg2 which folds down to the size of a small suitcase. It can be used as a double or single by adding two carrycots or baby car seats. Our test subjects were awed by the ease of maneuver, even with a full load of children.

Although they're light double pushchairs side-by-side aren't foolproof. If your children are at the same age and stage, they may be fighting over who sits in which position. If they're different heights it could be that a tandem design might be better for them as it lets them face each other.

Tandem

While side-by-side models are best for children of the same age, tandem lightweight double strollers come with distinct appeals. Some can accommodate 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 are larger and are easier to get into and out of. However their baskets tend to be smaller than the ones found on buggies that are single. They also have larger sized canopies with peekaboo windows and a cup holder for the parent and cushioned leg cushions for the little ones.

The iCandy Peach tandem is another great example of a lightweight tandem that is a excellent value. The fabrics are less expensive than some of our top-rated doubles. However, it looks great and is easy to use. Its one-handed folding is impressive. Although it takes some practice, Kirstie from our Lab called it "genius". It's not possible to fold it with the carrycot attached however, the mechanism for attaching and removing it is easy and quick.

Tandem strollers are light and lightweight. They usually make tighter turning than side-byside models. However, they may be difficult to drive on uneven surfaces and curbs. They can also be slower to accelerate and more heavy to move. This puts strain on your back.

Another alternative is a convertible double buggy, which is initially an individual and then you can add adapters to make it into a double. It can also have the option of a second seat, a carrycot or both in the front. Or the children can be seated together. Some of them also have the option of adding buggy boards that can aid older children keep up with a younger sibling.

The Uppababy Vista V2 can be transformed into a twin buggy from birth-sized pushchair by purchasing additional cocoons at PS59 each. The cocoons create a flat space for newborns. They can be attached together or placed on top of each other. You can also use the car seat that was included with the pushchair, when it's compatible. These buggies with dual-use capabilities are made of high-quality materials and can last for many years without showing any wear. This means that they have a high resale price.

Single-to-double infant strollers

This light double buggy is made for families who love the outdoors and want to upgrade from an individual-twin stroller with car seats. It can be converted into a jogger using kits that include air-filled tires as well as all-wheel suspension. It also handles rough terrain well and, as a tandem triple is suitable for twins or children of different ages. It's also a good option for parents who want an elegant design that's just as sleek as a single, and comes in a variety of fabrics.

We were impressed by the way this iCandy model folds down using a single-hand mechanism that's really simple to master. It's also heavier than some of the other single-to-double pushchairs in this review, home tester Karolina stated that it feels extremely maneuverable, even with two toddlers and a carrycot in it.

You can buy add-ons like the Roma Gemini Carrycots (PS100) that are ideal for infants. Our test panel found the seats to be comfortable for toddlers, with good headrests and lumbar support. There are a variety of options for reclining the seats and the front seat is adjustable in various positions and the back seat offering the option of recline.

The biggest drawback with this kind of buggy is that it's generally larger overall than the side-by-side doubles and makes it difficult to navigate through doorways and can be difficult to maneuver up and down kerbs. The suspension and wheels of these strollers tend to be able to deal with pavements. They're also lighter than most side-by-sides, so you can still get a lot of storage. It's worth bearing in mind that these types of strollers aren't as adept at getting through narrow aisles in supermarkets, and may struggle to handle a large amount of shopping. It's easier to turn around on the smallest curves of paths, but even this can be difficult. Some are also easier to turn than others, such as the Thule Urban Glide 2 Double and the Baby Trend Sit N' Stand Double, for instance.

Convertible

The best thing about convertible double pushchairs is the ability to adapt to changing family needs. Most of the time, they begin as single buggies and include adapters that permit you to add a second child's chair or a carrycot (in some instances) the car seat to the frame. Some even convert to a single buggie when your child grows older and begins to walk more or prefers to ride on buggy boards.

One of the lightest double strollers we have on our list, this sleek tri-fold model can hold children as heavy as 40 pounds each. It also has an easy-to-use basket between the seats for storage. The spacious canopy with a peekaboo window, multi-position reclining chairs as well as front and back suspensions to ensure smoother rides on rough terrain were praised by testers at home. It also has a convenient cup holder for the parent and a large, easy-to access basket. However, they noticed that the seats' backs have tiny pockets that aren't large enough to hold more than a phone and keys.

This high-end, lightweight side-by-side is available in more than 20 different configurations. It also includes a second chair and carrycot. Its impressive feature set includes a handlebar with a high-profile design for easier steering; front and rear suspension to smooth rough terrain; a self-standing compact fold that has straps for easy schlepping and seven-inch swing lock front wheels and 10-inch back wheels with suspension for a smoother ride. The only downside is that you'll have to buy a separate baby carrier or car seat.

This versatile tandem is the most popular of our home testers because 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 positions. It is a breeze to maneuver thanks to its light weight (about the same as a few single pushchairs). Many have praised the clever method of attaching the second seat or riding board at the back. Parents also appreciated the fact that it can accommodate infant car seats and carriers from multiple brands, including some that aren't typically fit in other double buggies.
