Which Lightweight Double Pushchair Should You Buy?

A compact double buggy with carrycot pushchair is easy to get around, particularly if you have children of different ages. They are easy to fold, steer and carry up and down steps.

This City Mini GT2 features side-by-side seating with plenty of legroom. It also has adjustable reclining, UPF 50+ canopy and windows that peek out. It also has a clever frame that can be expanded to accommodate a second seat and 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 without assistance, as they lack compatibility with car seats. However there are some exceptions. Thule Urban Glide 2 Double and 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're also easy to move despite their bigger footprint and are perfect for parents who worry about fitting through doorways.

The Cybex Duet is a little different due to its unique frame that extends its width to create a second seat, making it smaller than other pushchairs with side-by-side seating available. It can be pushed through doors that are standard and is easy to maneuver on public transportation. It's also a jogger, which is a great feature if you want to use it in conjunction with a baby carrier or infant car seat. It's also available in a variety of exciting colors.

Another excellent side-by-side lightweight double running buggy is the UPPAbaby Vista v2 Double, which allows for even more customization through a modular frame. It's a clever design that lets you turn it into a single buggy or a double running buggy by incorporating two car seats or carrycots (it can even accommodate twins). It's a great option for families that are growing and the UPPAbaby makes one of the lightest and most stylish umbrella strollers around.

Try the egg2 which folds down to the size and weight of a small 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 carry, even when fully loaded with kids.

Although they're lightweight double pushchairs that sit side-by-side do not guarantee safety. If your children are of the same age and stage, they might still argue over who sits in which position. If they are at different heights, a tandem style may be the best option for them, since it lets them face each other.

Tandem

While side-byside models are better for children of similar ages, tandem lightweight double strollers have their own charms. Some can fit carseats that are larger, and others come with seats that can be reversible. Others even have an additional carrycot or reversible seat in the middle. They tend to be more spacious and simple to get in and out of, although their baskets are usually smaller than those of single buggies. Many have larger canopies with windows that peek out and cushioned leg cushions.

The iCandy Peach tandem is another great example of a lightweight tandem that provides excellent value. The fabric is a little less luxurious than our other top-rated doubles, but it still looks and feels great and is very user-friendly. Its one-handed folding is impressive. Even though it requires some time to master, 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 easy and quick.

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

Another option is a convertible double buggy, which starts off as an individual and then you add adapters to turn it into a double. It could include a second seat, carrycot, or both in front. The children can be seated together. Some of them also offer the option to add buggy boards, which can aid older children keep up with a younger sibling.

The Uppababy Vista V2 is a great example of a convertible, because it can also be converted into a twin pram with the purchase of additional cocoons (PS59 each) which create a lay-flat space for newborns. These can be placed on top of each other or positioned to each other's faces, and you can use them with the baby car seat that is included with the pushchair (as long as you choose a compatible one). Since they are made of high-quality materials, these types of buggies that are dual-use can be used for a long time without showing any wear, which means they have a an excellent potential for resale.

Single-to-Double

This lightweight double buggy was designed for families who love the outdoors and are looking to upgrade from a single-stroller. It can be converted into a jogger with the kit that comes with air-filled tires as well as all-wheel suspension. It's also a great option for twins, or children from different ages and, as a triple tandem, it is able to be able to handle the rough terrain. It's also a good option for parents who are looking for an elegant design that's as sleek as a single and comes in a variety of fabric colours.

This iCandy model is incredibly easy to fold with a one-handed system. It's heavier than other single-to double pushchairs, however our home tester Karolina says it's still very mobile even with two toddlers inside and the carrycot.

You can purchase add-ons such as the Roma Gemini Carrycots (PS100) which are great for babies. Our test panel found the seats were comfortable for toddlers, with good headrests and lumbar support. And there are plenty of options for reclining in the front, with the seat being adjustable to different positions, and the rear seat offering the option of recline.

The biggest drawback of this kind of buggy is that it tends to be larger overall than the side-by-side doubles and makes it difficult to maneuver through doorways, and is difficult to maneuver up and down kerbs. However, the wheels and suspension on these types of strollers generally do a good job of handling paved surfaces, and the fact that they're usually much lighter than some of the side-by-sides means you can still have plenty of storage space. It's worth bearing in mind that these strollers aren't as adept at getting through narrow aisles in supermarkets and aren't able to handle a large amount of shopping. It's easier to turn around on the smallest curves of paths but even this can be a challenge. Some are also more easy to turn than others, like the Thule Urban Glide 2 Double and Baby Trend Sit N' Stand Double, for example.

Convertible

The best thing about convertible double pram with Reversible seats pushchairs is that they can adapt to changing family needs. Most of the time, they begin as single buggies, and come with adapters that allow you to add a second child's seat or carrycot, or (in certain instances) a car-seat to the frame. Some can be converted back to a single buggie when your older child starts to walk or chooses to ride a buggyboard.

This stylish tri-fold double stroller is among of the lightest on our list. It can carry up to 40 lbs per child and has an extra storage basket in between the seats. Home testers appreciated its spacious canopy with peekaboo windows, multi-position reclining seats and front and rear suspensions to ensure smoother rides on rough terrain. It also has a handy cup holder for the parent, and an enormous accessible, easily accessible basket. The backs of the bags have small pockets which are just sufficient to hold a phone and keys.

This light, high-end side-byside is available in more than 20 configurations. It also includes a second chair and carrycot. It has a high-profile steering handlebar, rear and front suspensions to smooth out rough terrain and an ultra-compact fold that can stand on its own with straps for easy transport, and seven-inch front wheels with swivel locks, and 10-inch back wheels that have suspensions to ensure more comfortable riding. The only drawback is that you'll have to purchase an additional car seat or baby carrier.

This multi-functional 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 in the parent-facing position. It is simple to move around due to its surprisingly low weight (about the equivalent of some single pushchairs). The seats are reversible, which means that you can switch them around to face either direction and the clever method by which it connects a second seat or riding board to the rear is praised by many. Parents also loved that it accommodates infant carriers and car seat from a variety of brands. This includes those that aren't typically compatible with other double buggies.
