Which Lightweight Double Pushchair Should You Buy?

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

This City Mini GT2 features side-by-side seating with plenty of legroom. It also features adjustable reclining, large UPF 50+ canopy and peekaboo windows. It also has an expanding frame size to accommodate a second car seat or a second passenger.

Side-by-Side

The majority of lightweight double pushchairs we tested are side-by-side designs and are generally recommended for children that can sit up on their own because they tend to be lacking car seat integration. That said, the Thule Urban Glide 2 double pram buggy and the Baby Trend Sit 'N Stand Double are both excellent options that offer recline that can be adjusted in both seats, a large canopy, and padded 5-point harnesses. They are also easy to maneuver despite their larger footprint. They are ideal for parents who fret about fitting through doors.

The Cybex Duet pushchair is unique because it features a unique frame that expands to add a second child seat. This makes it smaller than other pushchairs with side-by-side seating. It can fit through doors that are standard and is easy to maneuver in public transport. It is also an jogger which is perfect if you plan to use it in conjunction with an infant car seat or baby carrier.

The UPPAbaby Vista v2 double is another great side-by-side, lightweight double. It provides an even greater degree of customization due to a modular frame. It has a smart design that lets you convert it into a single stroller or a double by adding 2 carrycots or car seats (it can even accommodate twins). It's an outstandingly practical choice for families with growing children, and the UPPAbaby also is one of the lightest and most stylish umbrella strollers around.

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

Side-by-side lightweight double umbrella stroller pushchairs aren't foolproof however -If your children are the same age or stage, they might be fighting over who rides in which seat. And if they're different heights, a tandem style might be better for them, as it will allow them to look at each other.

Tandem

While side-by-side models may be more suitable for siblings who are the same age, tandem lightweight double pushchairs have their own charms. Some can fit an extra car seat, while others come with seats that can be reversible. Others have an additional carrycot or convertible seat in the middle. They are larger and are easier to get into and out of. However, their baskets tend to be smaller than those found on buggies that are single. They often have larger big canopies with windows that peek out and a cup holder for the parent and padding for the legs of little ones.

The iCandy Peach tandem is another good example of a lightweight tandem that provides great value. The fabrics are a little less luxurious than those of some of our top-rated doubles. But, it looks fantastic and is simple to use. One of the most impressive aspects about it is the one-handed fold - although it does require practice, Kirstie in our Lab said it's "genius". The carrycot can't be folded when it is attached. However, the mechanism to attach and remove the carrycot is easy and quick.

Tandem lightweight double pushchairs (my company) will generally make more precise turns than side-by-side models, but they can be more difficult to drive over bumps and uneven surfaces. They can also be slightly slower to pick up speed and are heavier to move, which can cause strain on your back.

A convertible double buggy is an additional option. It starts out as an individual however, you can add adapters to make it double. It could include the option of a second seat, a carrycot or both in the front. The children can be seated together. Some have the option of including a buggyboard, which assists an older child to keep up with a younger brother or sister.

The Uppababy Vista V2 is a great example of a convertible, since it can be converted into a twin buggy from birth pram with the purchase of additional cocoons (PS59 each) that create a lie-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, when it's compatible. Since they are made of high-quality materials, these kinds of buggies with dual-use capabilities can be used for many years without displaying much wear, meaning they have an excellent potential for resale.

Single-to-Double

This compact double buggy is made for families who love to go on outdoor adventures and are looking to upgrade from an individual-stroller. It can be converted into a jogger by acquiring kits that include air-filled tires and all-wheel suspension. It also handles rough terrain well and is a tandem triple is suitable for twins or children of various age groups. It's also a good option for parents who want an elegant design that's just as sleek as a single and is available in a range of colors for the fabric.

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

The seat can be used with the parent facing and you can purchase accessories for this stroller such as the Roma Gemini carrycots (PS100 each) which are great for newborns. Our panel of testers found that the seats were comfortable for toddlers and had good 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 also having the option of recline.

The biggest drawback with this kind of buggy is that it is generally larger overall than the side-by-side doubles and makes it difficult to navigate through doorways and can be tricky to maneuver around kerbs. However, the wheels and suspension on these models generally are capable of dealing with pavements and the fact that they're usually lighter than the side-by-sides means you can still have plenty of storage space. These strollers aren't easy to maneuver through supermarkets with narrow aisles and they might struggle to carry a lot. Although it's easier to turn the stroller double around on a small curved path, this can be a hassle. Some are also more easy to turn than others, such as the Thule Urban Glide 2 Double and Baby Trend Sit N' Stand Double, for example.

Convertible

The best thing about convertible double pushchairs is that they are able to adapt to the changing family requirements. They are typically single buggies, but come with adapters to add the second seat, carrycot or (in certain cases) the car seat to the frame. Some are able to be converted to a single buggie when your child's older age begins to walk or wants to ride buggyboards.

This stylish tri-fold double stroller can be described as one of the lightest strollers on our list. It can hold up to 40 pounds per child, and includes an integrated storage basket between the seats. The large canopy with a peekaboo window, multi-position reclining seats and front and back suspension for smoother rides on rough terrain were well-loved by the home testers. It also has a handy cup holder for the parent as well as an ample accessible, easily accessible basket. They did note that the backs have tiny pockets, which are only big enough to fit phones and keys.

This high-end, lightweight side-by-side is available in more than 20 different configurations. It also comes with a second chair and carrycot. Its impressive features include a handlebar with a high-profile design for easier steering and a rear and front suspension to smooth rough terrain; a self-standing, compact fold with handy straps for easy schlepping and seven-inch wheel lock that swivels in the front and 10-inch rear wheels with suspension to provide a more comfortable ride. The only downside is that you'll need to purchase a separate car seat or baby carrier.

This versatile tandem is a top choice from our home testers due to its maneuverability and large shopping basket, which is accessible with both seats facing towards the parent. It is a breeze to maneuver thanks to its light weight (about the weight of a few single pushchairs). Many people praise the clever way it attaches the second seat or riding board in the back. Parents also admired the fact that it can accommodate infant carriers and car seat from multiple brands. This includes some that are not normally compatible with other double buggies.
