Which Lightweight Double Pushchair Should You Buy?

A lightweight double stroller with bassinet pushchair is easy to get around, particularly when you have children of various ages. They are easy to fold, steer and carry up and down the steps.

This City Mini GT2 offers side-by-side seats with plenty of legroom with adjustable reclining, as well as huge UPF 50+ canopies with peekaboo windows. It also features a smart frame that expands widthways to accommodate a second seat, and also a compatible car seat(s).

Side-by-Side

The majority of the lightweight amazon double stroller pushchairs we tried were side-by-side models. They are ideal for children who can sit without assistance, since 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 great options that provide recline that can be adjusted in both seats, a huge canopy, and padded five-point harnesses. They are also simple to maneuver despite their bigger footprint. They are great for parents who are worried about fitting through doors.

The Cybex Duet is a little different because its clever frame expands widthways to add a second seat, making it slimmer than the majority of other pushchairs that are side-by-side available. This means it can fit through standard doors and is easy to maneuver on public transport. It's also a jogger, which is great when you're planning to use it with baby carriers or a car seat. It's available in a range of fun colors.

The UPPAbaby Vista v2 double is another great side-by-side, lightweight double. It offers even more customization thanks to a modular frame. It has a smart design that allows you to convert it into a single stroller or a double by adding 2 carrycots or car seats (it can even take twins). It's a great option for growing families and the UPPAbaby makes one of the lightest and most stylish umbrella strollers available.

If you're looking for a more compact and lightweight double, you can try the egg2 which folds to the size of a tiny suitcase. It can be used as a double or a single by adding two baby car seats or carrycots. Our test subjects were awed by how easy it was to move even with a full load of kids.

Even though they are lightweight, double pushchairs that are side-by-side aren't foolproof. If your children are of the same age and stage, they could still argue over who gets to sit in which position. If they are at different heights, the tandem model could be the best option for them, since it allows them to face eachother.

Tandem

While side-by-side models are more appropriate for siblings of the same age, tandem lightweight double pushchairs have their own charms. They can take a bigger car seat, and some come with reversible seats or an extra carrycot in the middle. They are bigger and are easier to get in and out of. However their baskets tend to be smaller than the ones found on buggies that are single. They often have larger canopy as well as peekaboo windows, and even padding for the leg cushions.

The iCandy Peach is another example of a great value lightweight tandem. Its fabric feels a bit less luxurious than our other top-rated tandems, but it looks and feels great and is very user-friendly. Its one-handed folding is impressive. While it requires some time to master, Kirstie from our Lab called it "genius". The carrycot can't be folded while it is attached. However, the mechanism to attach and remove the carrycot is quick and easy.

Tandem strollers are light and lightweight. They generally have a more precise turning compared to side-by-side models. However, they may be more difficult to drive on uneven surfaces and curbs. They are also slower to accelerate and are heavier to move. This can put stress on your back.

A convertible double buggy is an additional option. It is initially a single but you can also add adapters to convert it into a double. It can have a second seat or carrycot in the front or children can sit side-by-side. Some of them also have the option of adding a buggy board, which could help older children keep up with younger siblings.

The Uppababy Vista V2 is a excellent example of a convertible as it can also convert into a twin stroller side by Side pram through the purchase of additional cocoons (PS59 each) that create a lie-flat space for newborns. They can be joined or placed in a row. You can also use the car seat that was included with the pushchair, if it is compatible. These buggies with dual-use capabilities are made of high-quality materials that can be used for many years without showing any wear. This means that they have the highest resale value.

Single-to-Double

This light double buggy is designed for families who love to go on outdoor adventures and are looking to upgrade from a single-stroller. It can be converted into a jogger using a kit that includes air-filled tires and all-wheel suspension. It is also a good option for twins or children of different age groups, and as triple tandem, it's able to handle rough terrain. It's also a good choice for parents looking for an elegant design that's just as sleek as a single, and is available in a range of fabric colours.

We were impressed by the way this iCandy model folds down using a single-hand mechanism that's extremely simple to master. And although it's heavier than some of the other single-to-double pushchairs featured in this review, our home tester Karolina stated that it feels very maneuverable - even when she had two toddlers and a carrycot in it.

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

The biggest drawback with this kind of buggy is that it tends to be wider overall than side-by-side doubles, which makes it harder to navigate through doorways and can be tricky to manoeuvre up and down kerbs. The wheels and suspension of these models are generally able to cope with pavements. They're also lighter than most side-by-sides, so you can still have plenty of storage. These strollers can be difficult to maneuver around supermarkets with narrow aisles and they may struggle to carry a large amount. It's a little easier to turn around even on the smallest double buggy of curving paths however, even this can be difficult. Some are more easy to turn than other models, like the Thule Urban Glide 2 Double or the Baby Trend Sit N' Stand Double.

Convertible

The best thing about convertible double pushchairs is the ability to adapt to a family's changing needs. They are typically single buggies, and have adapters that allow you to add the second seat, a carrycot or (in some cases) a car seat to the frame. Some can even convert back to a single as your child grows older and begins to walk more or prefers to ride on buggy boards.

This stylish tri-fold double stroller is one of the lightest strollers on our list. It can support up to 40lbs per child, and includes an integrated storage basket between the seats. The large canopy with a peekaboo window, multi-position reclining chairs and front and back suspensions to ensure smoother rides on rough terrain were appreciated by home testers. It also comes with a handy cup holder for parents and an ample, easy-to-access basket. However, they pointed out that the backs of the seats have small pockets that are not big enough to hold more than a phone and keys.

This high-end, lightweight side-by-side is available in more than 20 different configurations. It also includes a second chair and carrycot. Its impressive features include an ergonomic handlebar with a high profile for better 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 back wheels with suspension to provide a more comfortable ride. The only drawback is that you will need to purchase a separate car seat or baby carrier.

This versatile tandem is a popular 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 lightweight weight (about the same as single pushchairs) makes it a breeze to move around. Reversible seats mean you can switch them around to face either direction, and the clever way that it can attach the second seat or riding board to the rear is appreciated by many. Parents also appreciated the fact that it can accommodate infant carriers and car seats from a variety of brands, including those that don't normally fit into other double buggies.
