Which Lightweight Double Pushchair Should You Buy?
It's easy to move around with a lightweight double pushchair, especially if you have kids with different age groups. They're typically simple to fold, steer and carry up and down stairs.
This City Mini GT2 offers side-by-side seats with plenty of legroom and reclining that can be adjusted. It also has massive UPF 50+ canopy with peekaboo windows. It also comes with a frame that expands in width to accommodate the second car seat or another passenger.
Side-by-Side
Most of the lightweight double pushchairs we tested were side-by-side models. They are ideal for children who can sit up without assistance, since they tend to lack compatibility with car seats. The Thule Urban Glide 2 Double, and Baby Trend Sit 'N Stand double pram pushchair, are both excellent options. They come with an recline adjustments for both seats, a large canopy, and padded five-point safety harnesses. They are also easy to move around despite their bigger footprint. They are perfect for parents who fret about fitting through doors.
The Cybex Duet is a little different due to its unique frame that extends its width to create an additional seat, making it smaller than most other side-by-side pushchairs on the market. It is able to pass through doors that are standard and is easy to maneuver in public transport. It can also be used as a jogger, which is ideal when you are planning to use it with an infant car seat or baby carrier.
The UPPAbaby Vista v2 double is another great side-by-side, lightweight double. It allows for an even greater degree of customization due to the 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 a great option for families growing. The UPPAbaby umbrella stroller is one of the lightest, most stylish and fashionable strollers you can find.
If you're looking for a compact lightweight double, try the egg2 which folds down to the size of a small suitcase. It can be used as a single or double by adding two carrycots or infant car seats and our home testers were awed by how sleek and simple it was to carry even when stuffed with children.
Although they're light double pushchairs that sit side-by-side aren't foolproof. If your children are at the same age and stage, they might be fighting over who sits in which spot. If they're taller than each other 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 may be more appropriate for siblings who are the same age tandem pushchairs that are lightweight offer their own perks. Some can fit an extra car seat, while some have reversible seats. Others even have an additional carrycot or reversible seat in the middle. They are more spacious, and easier to get in and out of. However their baskets tend to be smaller than those on buggies that are single. Many also feature more generously big canopies with windows that peek out and a parent cup holder and padded leg cushions for children.
The iCandy Peach is another example of a lightweight and affordable tandem. The fabric is a bit less luxurious than some of our top-rated doubles. But, it looks stunning and is easy to use. One of the most striking things about it is its single-handed fold. Although it does require practice, Kirstie in our Lab has said it's "genius". The carrycot cannot be folded while it's attached. However, the mechanism to attach and remove the carrycot is easy and quick.
Tandem lightweight double strollers will generally have a more precise turning compared to side-byside models. However, they may be more difficult to drive on uneven surfaces and curbs. They can also be slower to accelerate and 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. These can include an additional seat or carrycot in the front or the kids can be seated side-by-side. Some of them also have the option of incorporating buggy boards that can help an older child keep up with younger siblings.
The Uppababy Vista V2 can be converted into a twin-sized pram by purchasing additional cocoons for PS59 each. The cocoons create a flat space for newborns. They can be positioned in a row or pushchairsandprams joined to each other's faces and you can use them with the infant 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 kinds of dual-use buggies can often be used for years without showing much wear, which means they have a high resale value.
Single-to-Double
Designed for outdoor-loving families who want to upgrade from a single stroller, this light double buggy transforms into a jogger thanks a nifty kit that includes air-filled tyres, as well as all-wheel suspension. It can also handle rough terrain well and, as a tandem triple, is perfect for twins or children of various ages. It's a great choice for parents who want a sleek style that's as simple as a single. It comes in different fabric colours.
This iCandy model is very easy to fold with a one-handed system. And although it's heavier than some of the other single-to-double pushchairs in this review, our home tester Karolina claimed that it is very maneuverable, even with two toddlers and a carrycot.
The seat can be used with the parent facing and you can buy add-ons for this stroller such as the Roma Gemini carrycots (PS100 each), which are ideal for babies. The seats are comfortable for toddlers with good headrests and lumbar support. There are many options for reclining and recline, with the front seat adjusting to various positions and the rear seat having a recline option.
This kind of buggy has the greatest disadvantage of being larger than the side-by-side doubles. This makes it difficult to maneuver through doorways, and it can be difficult to get up and down kerbs. The wheels and suspension of these models are generally good at coping with paved surfaces. They're also lighter than most side-by-sides, so you can still have plenty of storage space. It's important to keep in mind that these types of strollers aren't as good at navigating narrow aisles in supermarkets and aren't able to handle a lot of shopping. Even though it's easier to turn the stroller around on a small curved path, this can be a problem. 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
The great thing about convertible double pushchairs is the ability to adapt to a family's changing needs. Often, they start as single buggies. They have adapters that allow you to add a second child's chair, a carrycot, or (in some cases) an automobile seat to the frame. Some of them can be converted back to a single when your child grows older and begins to walk more or prefers to ride on buggy boards.
One of the lightest double strollers on our list, this stylish tri-fold model can hold children up to 40lbs each and features a handy basket in between the seats for storage. The spacious canopy with peekaboo window, multi-position reclining chairs and a front and back suspension for smoother and more comfortable riding on rough terrain were well-loved by 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 tiny pockets that aren't big enough to accommodate anything more than a cell phone and keys.
This high-end, lightweight side-by-side is available in more than 20 different configurations. It also comes with a second seat and carrycot. Its impressive set of features includes a high-profile handlebar for easier steering as well as rear and front suspensions to smooth rough terrain; a self-standing, compact fold that has straps for easy schlepping 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 have to purchase a separate baby carriage or car seat.
This multi-functional tandem is the most popular of our home testers due to the fact that it is simple to maneuver and features a large basket for shopping that is accessible from both seats when in the parent-facing position. It is simple to maneuver thanks to its light weight (about the weight of a few single pushchairs). Its reversible seats mean that they can be switched to face either direction and the clever way it can attach a second seat or riding board to the rear is highly praised by many. Parents also liked the fact that it could accommodate infant car seats and carriers from a variety of brands, including those that don't normally fit into other double buggies.
