Which Lightweight Double Pushchair Should You Buy? A compact double pushchair is easy to get around, particularly if you have children of various age groups. They're 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 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 the best for children who can sit without assistance, as they tend to lack car seat compatibility. That said they do have a few advantages. Thule Urban Glide 2 Double and the Baby Trend Sit 'N Stand Double are both top choices that have recline that can be adjusted in both seats, a wide canopy, and padded five-point harnesses. They're also easy to move despite their larger footprints, and are ideal for parents worried about fitting through doors. The Cybex Duet pushchair is unique because it has a clever frame that expands in width to add a second child seat. This makes it lighter than other pushchairs with side-by-side seating. It is able to fit through standard doors 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, and comes in a range of fun colors. The UPPAbaby Vista v2 double is another great side-by-side, lightweight double. It offers additional flexibility due to a modular frame. The clever design allows you to transform it into an individual or double buggy by adding two carrycots or car seats for children. It can even accommodate twins. It's an outstandingly practical choice for growing families, and the UPPAbaby also is one of the lightest and stylish umbrella strollers on the market. Try the egg2 that folds down to the size and weight of a small suitcase. It can be used either as a double or a single by adding 2 carrycots or baby car seats. Our test subjects were awed by the ease of move even with a load of kids. Although they're lightweight double pushchairs side-by-side aren't foolproof. If your children are of the same age and stage, they could still argue over who sits in which seat. And if they're taller than each other, a tandem style might be better for them, as it lets them face each other. Tandem While side-by-side models are best suitable for siblings of similar age group, tandem light double strollers come with their own appeal. Some can fit carseats that are larger, and others have seats that can be reversible. Some even come with an additional carrycot or reclined seat that can be flipped in the middle. They are generally more spacious and simple to get in and out of the baskets, though they are usually smaller than those on single buggies. They often have larger large canopies that have peekaboo windows, as well as one cup holder for the parent and padding for the legs of little ones. The iCandy Peach tandem is another great example of a lightweight tandem that provides great value. The fabric is a bit less expensive than some of our top-rated doubles. However, it looks fantastic and is simple to use. One of the most impressive aspects about it is the one-handed fold. While it requires practice, Kirstie in our Lab declared it to be “genius”. The carrycot is not foldable while it is attached. However, the process to attach and remove the carrycot is easy and quick. Tandem pushchairs that are lightweight generally make more precise turns than side-by-side models however, they can be more difficult to drive on uneven surfaces and curbs. They can also be slower to accelerate and are heavier to move. This can put stress on your back. Another option is a convertible double buggy that starts out as a single and then you can add adapters to make it into a double. It could include an additional seat, a carrycot or both in front. Children can share a seat. Some of them also offer the option to add a buggy board, which can help older children keep up with younger siblings. The Uppababy Vista V2 can be transformed into a twin-sized stroller by purchasing additional cocoons for PS59 each. These cocoons provide an area that is flat for newborns. These can be placed side by side or attached to each other's faces, and you can use them with the infant car seat that comes with the pushchair (as long as you choose an appropriate one). These buggies for dual-use are made of high-quality materials and can last for many years without showing any wear. This means they have an excellent resale value. Single-to-Double This light double buggy was designed for families who love to go on outdoor adventures and would like to upgrade from a single-stroller. It can be transformed into a jogger with the kit that comes with air-filled tires as well as all-wheel suspension. It can also withstand rough terrain well and, as a tandem triple, is perfect for twins or children of various age groups. small double stroller 's a great choice for parents who want a chic design as sleek as a single and comes in various colors of fabric. We loved the way this iCandy model folds down with just one hand, making it very simple to master. It's heavier than other single-to-double pushchairs, but our home test Karolina says it's mobile even with two toddlers inside and carrying a carrycot. The seat can be used as a parent-facing and you can purchase accessories for this stroller such as the Roma Gemini carrycots (PS100 each) that are perfect for newborns. The seats are comfortable for toddlers, with excellent headrests and lumbar support. There are numerous options for reclined seats, with the front seat adjustable in different positions and the back seat having an option to recline. This type of buggy comes with the main disadvantage of being larger than side-byside doubles. This makes it difficult to maneuver through doorways and it isn't easy to maneuver between kerbs. However, the wheels and suspension are generally able to do a good job of dealing with pavements and the fact that they're lighter than the side-by-sides means you can still have a decent amount of storage space. It's important to remember that these strollers aren't as good at getting through narrow aisles in supermarkets and can struggle to handle a lot 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 also more easy to turn than others, such as the Thule Urban Glide 2 Double and the Baby Trend Sit N' Stand Double, for instance. Convertible Convertible double pushchairs are fantastic because they can be adapted to the changing needs of families. They are typically single buggies, and have adapters that allow you to add the second seat, carrycot or (in certain cases) a car seat to the frame. Some can be converted to a single buggie when your older child starts to walk or prefers to ride a buggyboard. One of the lightest double strollers on our list, this sleek tri-fold model is able to hold children up to 40 lbs each. It also has a handy basket in between the seats to store things. The spacious canopy with peekaboo window, multi-position reclining chairs and a front and back suspensions to ensure smoother riding on rough terrain were praised by the home testers. It also comes with a convenient parent cup holder and an enormous, easily accessible basket. The backs of the bags have small pockets that are just sufficient to hold the phone and a set of keys. This high-end, lightweight side-by-side can be used in more than 20 configurations and includes 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 be folded up with straps for easy transport, and seven-inch front wheels with swivel locks as well as 10 inches back wheels with suspensions to ensure more comfortable riding. The only drawback is that you will need to purchase a separate car seat or baby carrier. This versatile tandem is the most popular of our home testers because it is easy to maneuver and has an enormous shopping basket that can be accessed from both seats when in the parent-facing position. It is a breeze to maneuver thanks to its light weight (about the equivalent of some single pushchairs). Its reversible seats mean that you can flip them to face either way, and the clever way that it connects an additional seat or riding board to the rear is praised by many. Parents also appreciated the fact that it could accommodate infant carriers and car seats from a variety of brands, including those which aren't usually fit into other double buggies.
