Which Lightweight Double Pushchair Should You Buy?

It's easy to move around with a lightweight double stroller for twins pushchair, especially if you have kids of varying age groups. They are easy to fold, steer and carry up and over steps.

This City Mini GT2 features side-by-side seating with plenty of legroom. It also has adjustable reclining, large UPF 50+ canopy, and peekaboo windows. It also has a frame that expands in the width to accommodate a second car seat or an additional passenger.

Side-by-Side

The majority of light double pushchairs that we tested are side-by-side designs and they're generally best for children who can sit up unassisted because they aren't equipped with car seat integration. The Thule Urban Glide 2 Double and the Baby Trend Sit 'N Stand Double, are both excellent options. They come with an recline that can be adjusted for both seats, a large canopy, and padded five-point safety harnesses. These are also easy to maneuver, despite their larger footprint. They are great for parents who are worried about fitting through doors.

The Cybex Duet is a little different due to its clever frame that expands in width to accommodate an additional 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 also doubles as a jogger which is great when you are planning to use it in conjunction with an infant car seat or a baby carrier.

The UPPAbaby Vista v2 double is another fantastic side-by-side double that is lightweight. It offers additional flexibility due to a modular frame. It has a smart design that lets you transform it into a single stroller or a double by incorporating 2 carrycots or car seats (it can even accommodate twins). It's a fantastic and practical choice for families that are growing, and the UPPAbaby also is among the tiniest and most fashionable umbrella strollers around.

If you prefer a more compact lightweight double, try the egg2 which folds to the size of a tiny suitcase. It can be used as a single or a double with the addition of two carrycots or infant car seats and our home testers were awed by the sleek and easy it was to handle even when loaded with kids.

Even though they are lightweight, double pushchairs that are side-by-side do not guarantee safety. If your children are of the same age and stage, they may be fighting over who sits in which position. If they're at different heights, then the tandem model could be best for them, as it allows them to face each other.

Tandem

While side-by-side models are best suited to siblings with similar age group, tandem light nipper double buggy strollers come with their own appeal. They can be fitted with a larger car seat, and some come with reversible seats or an extra carrycot in the middle. They are more spacious and easy to get into and out of. However the baskets they use tend to be smaller than those on single buggies. Many also feature more generously large canopies that have peekaboo windows and a cup holder for parents and cushioned leg cushions for the children.

The iCandy Peach tandem is another good example of a lightweight tandem that offers excellent value. The fabrics are a little less luxurious than some of our top-rated doubles. However, it still looks great and is easy to use. Its one-handed folding is awe-inspiring. Although it takes some practice, Kirstie from our Lab called it "genius". The carrycot cannot be folded when it is attached. However, the mechanism to attach and remove the carrycot is easy and quick.

Tandem lightweight double strollers will usually make tighter turning than side-byside models. However, they may be harder to drive on uneven surfaces and curbs. They can also be slow to speed up and can be heavier to move, which could put stress on your back.

Another alternative is a convertible double buggy which is initially an individual and then you can add adapters to make it into a double. It can also have an additional seat, a carrycot, or both in the front. The children can sit together. Some have the option of including a buggyboard, which can help an older child keep up with younger siblings or brothers.

The Uppababy Vista V2 is a great example of a convertible as it can also convert into a twin pushchairs pram by the purchase of additional cocoons (PS59 each) that provide a flat space for infants. They can be attached together or placed side-by-side. You can also use the car seat that came with the pushchair in the event that it is compatible. Because they're made from high-quality materials, these kinds of dual-use buggies can often be used for many years without showing any wear, meaning they have an excellent price resales.

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 a nifty kit that includes air-filled tyres as well as all-wheel suspension. It's also a good choice for twins, or children of different ages and, as a triple tandem, it can handle rough terrain. It's also a good option for parents looking for an elegant design that's as sleek as a single and is available in a range of fabric colours.

This iCandy model is very easy to fold with the use of a single hand. Although it's heavier than some of the other single-to-double pushchairs in this review, home tester Karolina said that it still is very maneuverable, even with two toddlers and a carrycot in it.

The seat can be used parent-facing and you can buy add-ons for this stroller like 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, with the front seat being able to be adjusted to different positions and the rear seat having a recline option.

This type of buggy comes with the greatest disadvantage of being wider than doubles that are side-by-side. This makes it difficult to maneuver through doorways and it can be difficult to move between kerbs. However, the wheels and suspension on these types of strollers generally are capable of handling paved surfaces, and the fact that they're generally much lighter than some of the side-by-sides, means you still have a decent amount of storage space. It's important to keep in mind that these types of strollers aren't as good at getting through narrow aisles in supermarkets and can struggle to handle a lot of shopping. Even though it's easier to turn the stroller on a small curved path, it can be a hassle. Some are also more easy to turn than others, with the Thule Urban Glide 2 Double and the Baby Trend Sit N' Stand Double, for instance.

Convertible

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

One of the most lightweight double strollers on our list, this sleek tri-fold model can hold children up to 40 lbs each. It also has an easy-to-use basket between the seats to store things. The spacious canopy with a peekaboo window, multi-position reclining seats and front and back suspensions to ensure smoother and more comfortable riding on rough terrain were appreciated by home testers. It also has a convenient parent cup holder, and a large accessible, easily accessible basket. However, they noticed that the backs of the seats have pockets that aren't big enough to hold more than a smartphone and keys.

This high-end, lightweight Double stroller side-by-side can be used in more than 20 configurations and comes with a second seat and carrycot. It has a distinctive steering handlebar, front and rear suspensions that smooth rough terrain and a compact fold that can stand on its own with straps that make it easy to transport, and seven-inch front wheels with swivel locks and 10-inch back wheels that have suspensions for an easier ride. The only downside is that you'll need buy a separate baby carrier or car seat.

This versatile tandem is the most popular of our home testers due to the fact that it is easy to maneuver and has an enormous shopping basket that is accessible from both seats when in the parent-facing position. Its extremely lightweight weight (about the same as single pushchairs) makes it easy to move. Many people praise the clever way it connects the second seat or riding board at the back. Parents also appreciated the fact that it can accommodate infant car seats and carriers from a variety of brands, including those that don't normally fit in other double buggies.
