Which Lightweight Double Pushchair Should You Buy?

It's easy to move around with a light nipper double buggy pushchair, especially if you have kids of different age groups. They are easy to fold, steer and carry up and over steps.

This City Mini GT2 features side-by-side seating with plenty of legroom. It also has adjustable reclining, UPF 50+ canopies and windows that peek out. It also has frames that can be expanded in size to accommodate the second car seat or another passenger.

Side-by-Side

The majority of the light double pushchairs we tried were side-by-side models. They are ideal for children who can sit without assistance, as they aren't as likely to have car seat compatibility. The Thule Urban Glide 2 Double and the Baby Trend Sit 'N Stand Double, are both excellent options. They offer recline adjustments for both seats, a large canopy, and padded five-point safety harnesses. They're also easy to maneuver despite their larger footprint and are great for parents worried about fitting through doors.

The Cybex Duet pushchair is unique because of its clever frame that can be expanded to add an additional child seat. This makes it slimmer than other pushchairs that are side-by-side. It can fit through doors that are standard and is easy to maneuver in public transport. It also doubles as a jogger which is great news when you're planning to use it with baby carriers or a car seat. It's available in a range of fun colors.

Another great side-by-side, lightweight double is the UPPAbaby Vista v2 Double, which offers even more flexibility and customization thanks to its modular frame. It has a smart design that lets you convert it into a single buggy or a double by adding two car seats or carrycots (it can even take twins). It's a great option for growing families, and the UPPAbaby also makes one of the lightest and stylish umbrella strollers available.

If you're looking for a compact lightweight double, try the egg2 which folds to the size of a compact suitcase. It can be used as a single or a double by adding 2 carrycots or infant car seats and our home testers were awed by the sleek and easy it was to use even when stuffed with children.

Side-by-side lightweight double pushchairs aren't 100% foolproof, however- if your children are at the same age or stage they may still fight over who is allowed to ride in which seat. If they're at different heights then it is possible that a tandem design is best for them, as it allows them to face each other.

Tandem

While side-by-side models are more appropriate for siblings with similar ages, tandem lightweight double pushchairs offer their own perks. Some can fit a larger car seat and others have reversible seats. Others even have an extra carrycot or a convertible seat in the middle. They tend to be more spacious and easy to get in and out of however their baskets are typically smaller than the ones on single buggies. Many feature larger canopies, peekaboo windows and even cushioned leg cushions.

The iCandy Peach is another example of a great value lightweight tandem. The fabrics are a little less luxurious than some of our top-rated doubles. However, it still looks fantastic and is simple to use. Its one-handed folding is awe-inspiring. Although it takes some practice, Kirstie from our Lab described it as "genius". The carrycot can't be folded when it is attached. However, the mechanism to attach and remove the carrycot is quick and easy.

Tandem lightweight double strollers will typically have tighter turning capabilities than side-byside models. However, they may be harder to drive on uneven surfaces and curbs. They can also be slightly slower to pick up speed and can be heavier to move, which could cause strain on your back.

A convertible small double stroller buggy is another alternative. It is initially a single however, you can add adapters to convert it into a double. This can include an additional seat or carrycot in front or children can be seated side-byside. Some also have the option to add buggy boards that can aid older children keep up with younger siblings.

The Uppababy Vista V2 can be transformed into a twin-sized pushchair by purchasing additional cocoons at PS59 each. These cocoons provide an open space for infants. These can be placed side by side or attached to one another and you can also use them with the baby car seat that is included with the pushchair (as as long as you select a compatible one). These buggies for dual-use are made from high-quality materials and can be used for a long time without showing any wear. This means they have the highest resale value.

Single-to-Double

This lightweight 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 transformed into a jogger with a kit that includes air-filled tires and all-wheel suspension. It's also a good option for twins or children from different ages and as a triple tandem, it can take on rough terrain. 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.

We were impressed by the way this iCandy model folds into itself with a one-handed mechanism that's extremely simple to master. Although it's heavier than other pushchairs that are single-to-double in this review, home tester Karolina stated that it is very maneuverable, even with two toddlers and a carrycot inside.

You can purchase additional items such as the Roma Gemini Carrycots (PS100) that are ideal for infants. Our panel of testers found that the seats to be comfortable for toddlers and had good headrests and lumbar support. There are a variety of options for reclining the seats, with the front seat can be adjusted to different positions, and the back seat also having an option to recline.

The biggest drawback with this type of buggy is that it tends to be larger overall than the side-by-side doubles and makes it difficult to get through doorways and is difficult to manoeuvre up and down kerbs. The suspension and wheels of these models are generally able to cope with surfaces that are paved. They're also lighter than most side-by-sides which means you can get a lot of storage. It's worth bearing in mind that these strollers aren't as good at navigating narrow aisles in supermarkets and can struggle to handle a large amount of shopping. It's a little easier to turn around on the smallest of curved paths however, it can be difficult to turn them around on a straight path. Some are easier to turn than other, such as the Thule Urban Glide 2 double buggy that converts to single or Baby Trend Sit N' Stand Double.

Convertible

The best thing about convertible double to single buggy pushchairs is that they are able to adapt to changing family requirements. They often start out as single buggies, but have adapters that allow you to add an additional seat, carrycot or (in some instances) a car seat to the frame. Some are able to be converted to a single one when your child reaches the age of walk or wants to ride buggyboards.

One of the Lightest double stroller double strollers on our list, this fashionable tri-fold model can hold children as heavy as 40 pounds each and features a handy basket in between the seats to store things. The large canopy with a peekaboo window, multi-position reclining seats as well as front and back suspensions for smoother and more comfortable riding on rough terrain were praised by the home testers. It also has a handy parent cup holder and a large, easy-to-access basket. However, they noticed that the backs of the seats have pockets that are not big enough to accommodate anything more than a smartphone and keys.

This light, high-end side-byside is available in more than 20 configurations. It also comes with a second chair and carrycot. Its impressive set of features includes an ergonomic handlebar with a high profile for better steering; front and rear suspension to smooth rough terrain; a self-standing compact fold that has straps that make it easy to schlep and seven-inch wheel lock that swivels in the front and back wheels that measure 10 inches with suspension to provide a more comfortable ride. The only drawback is that you'll need to purchase a separate baby carrier or car seat.

This versatile tandem is a top choice from our home testers due to its easy-to-maneuver size and impressively large shopping basket, which can be accessed with both seats facing towards the parent. Its surprisingly light weight (about the same as single pushchairs) makes it easy to move. Many users praise the clever way it attaches the second seat or riding board at the back. Parents also loved that it accommodates infant carriers and car seats from various brands. This includes a few that aren't typically compatible with other double buggies.
