The 10 Scariest Things About Double Pushchair
Which Lightweight Double Pushchair Should You Buy?

It's easy to move around with the lightweight double pushchair particularly if you have children of different ages. They're generally easy to steer, fold and carry up and down stairs.

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

Side-by-Side

Most of the lightweight double pushchairs that we tested were side-by-side models. They are ideal for children who can stand up without assistance, since they lack car seat compatibility. That said, the Thule Urban Glide 2 Double and the Baby Trend Sit 'N Stand Double are both top choices that have adjustable recline in both seats, a huge canopy, and padded 5-point harnesses. They're also easy to maneuver despite their bigger footprint and are perfect for parents who are worried about fitting through doorways.

The Cybex Duet is a little different due to its clever frame that expands in width to accommodate another seat, making it slimmer than most other side-by-side pushchairs available. This means it fits through standard doors and is easy to maneuver on public transport. It can also be used as a jogger, which is great when you're planning to use it with a baby carrier or infant car seat. It's available in a variety of exciting colors.

The UPPAbaby Vista v2 double is another great side-by-side, lightweight double. It allows for even more customization thanks to the modular frame. The clever design allows you to transform it into a double or single buggy by adding two carrycots or child car seats. It can even accommodate twins. It is a practical option for growing families. The UPPAbaby umbrella stroller is also one of the lightest, most fashionable and fashionable strollers you can find.

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 single double by adding 2 carrycots or infant car seats, and our home testers were awed by how sleek and simple it was to carry even when loaded with kids.

Side-by-side pushchairs that are lightweight aren't foolproof however -- if your children are the same age or stage they may still fight over who is allowed to ride in which seat. If they're at different heights it could be that a tandem design might be better for them, as it will allow them to look at each other.

Tandem

While side-by-side models are best suitable for siblings of the same age group, tandem light double strollers have their own appeal. They can take a bigger car seat, and some even have seats that can be reversible or a carrycot in the middle. They tend to be more spacious and easier to get in and out of the baskets, though they tend to be smaller than those of single buggies. They often have larger large canopies that have peekaboo windows as well as a parent cup holder and padding for the legs of children.

The iCandy Peach tandem is another excellent example of a light tandem that offers excellent value. The fabric is a bit less expensive than some of our top-rated doubles. However, it still looks stunning and is easy to use. One of the most impressive things about it is its one-handed fold - although it will require some practice, Kirstie in our Lab has said it's "genius". It's not possible to fold it 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 generally make more precise turns than side-byside models, however, they can be more difficult to drive over uneven surfaces and curbs. They can also be slow to accelerate and may be heavier to move, which could put stress on your back.

Another alternative is a convertible double buggy , which starts off as one-person, but you can add adapters to make it into a double. This can include a second seat or carrycot in front or the kids can sit side-by-side. Some have the option of including a buggyboard that assists an older child to keep up with siblings who are younger.

The Uppababy Vista V2 is a excellent example of a convertible as it can also convert into a twin pram through the purchase of additional cocoons (PS59 each) which create a lay-flat space for infants. They can be positioned in a row or joined to one another and you can use them with the infant car seat that comes with the pushchair (as as long as you select an appropriate one). These dual-use buggies are made from high-quality materials and can be used for a long time without showing any wear. This means that they have the highest resale value.

Single-to-Double

For families who love the outdoors and want to upgrade their single stroller, this lightweight double buggy turns into a jogger thanks to a nifty kit that includes air-filled tyres as well as all-wheel suspension. It can also withstand rough terrain well and it's a tandem triple that, is perfect for twins or children of different age groups. It's also a good option for parents who are looking for an elegant design that's just as sleek as a single and comes in a variety of colors for the fabric.

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

You can buy add-ons like the Roma Gemini Carrycots (PS100) which are great for babies. Our test panel found the seats were comfortable for toddlers and had good lumbar support and headrests. There are a variety of options to recline the seats, with the front seat can be adjusted to different positions, and the back seat offering a reclining option.

This type of buggy comes with the biggest disadvantage of being wider than doubles that are side-by-side. This makes it difficult to navigate through doorways and it isn't easy to maneuver between kerbs. However the suspension and wheels on these types of strollers generally perform well in coping with paved surfaces and the fact that they're much lighter than some of the side-bysides means that you still have plenty of storage space. These strollers aren't easy to maneuver in supermarkets with narrow aisles and they might struggle to carry a lot. It's a bit easier to turn them around even on the smallest of curving paths however, it can be difficult to turn them around on a straight path. Some are more easy to turn than other, such as the Thule Urban Glide 2 Double or the Baby Trend Sit N' Stand Double.

Convertible

Convertible double pushchairs are great because they can be adjusted to the changing requirements of the family. They are typically single buggies, but have adapters that allow you to add the second seat, a carrycot, or (in some instances) an automobile seat to the frame. Some are able to be converted to a single when your older child starts to walk or wants to ride buggyboards.

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 integrated storage basket between the seats. The large canopy with a peekaboo window, multi-position reclining chairs and a front and back suspensions to ensure smoother and more comfortable riding on rough terrain were well-loved by home testers. It also has a handy cup holder for the parent and an ample accessible, easily accessible basket. However, they noted that the backs of the seats have pockets that aren't big enough to accommodate anything more than a smartphone and keys.


This premium, lightweight side-by-side can be used in more than 20 different configurations and comes with two seats and a carrycot. It has a high-profile steering handlebar, front and rear 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 for more comfortable riding. The only drawback is that you'll need purchase a separate baby carrier or car seat.

This versatile tandem is a top choice from our home testers due to its maneuverability and large shopping basket that is accessible with both seats in the parent-facing position. Its lightweight weight (about the same as some single pushchairs) makes it easy to move around. Reversible seats mean they can be switched to face either direction and the clever method by which it attaches an additional seat or riding board to the rear is appreciated by many. Parents also appreciated the fact that it can accommodate infant carriers and car seat from various brands. This includes those that aren't typically compatible with other double buggies.
