Which Lightweight Double Pushchair Should You Buy?

It's easy to move around with a lightweight Double pushchair (http://gwwa.yodev.net/bbs/board.php?Bo_table=notice&wr_id=3594368), particularly if you have children with different ages. They are easy to fold, steer and transport up and down the stairs.

This City Mini GT2 offers side-by-side seats with plenty of legroom with adjustable reclining, as well as massive UPF 50+ canopy with peekaboo windows. It also has a clever frame that can be expanded to accommodate a second seat and compatible car seat(s).

Side-by-Side

Most of the lightweight double pushchairs we tested were side-by-side models. These are the best for children who can stand up without assistance, since they aren't as likely to have compatibility with car seats. The Thule Urban Glide 2 Double and the Baby Trend Sit 'N Stand double buggy with carrycot, are both excellent choices. They have adjustable recline for both seats, a huge canopy, and padded 5-point safety harnesses. They are also simple to maneuver, despite their larger footprint. They are great for parents who fret about fitting through doors.

The Cybex Duet is a little different due to its unique frame that expands widthways to add an additional seat, making it slimmer than most other side by side double stroller-by-side pushchairs on the market. It can fit through doors of standard size and is easy to maneuver in public transport. It can also be used as an jogger which is perfect for those who plan to use it with an infant car seat or carrier.

Another great side-by-side, lightweight double is the UPPAbaby Vista v2 Double, that offers more customization through a modular frame. It features a clever design that lets you turn it into a single stroller or a double by adding two car seats or carrycots (it can even accommodate twins). It is a practical option for families that are growing. The UPPAbaby umbrella stroller is one of the lightest, most stylish and most stylish available.

If you're looking for a compact and lightweight double, you can try the egg2 that folds down to the size of a compact suitcase. It can be used either as a single or double by adding two baby car seats or carrycots. Our home testers were impressed with how easy it was to maneuver even with a full load of kids.

Side-by-side lightweight double pushchairs aren't foolproof, though -- if your children are the same age or at the same stage, they may still fight over who gets to ride in which seat. If they are at different heights then it is possible that a tandem design is best for them, as it allows them to face each other.

Tandem

While side-byside models might be more suitable for siblings who are the same age, tandem lightweight double pushchairs have their own charms. They can accommodate a larger car seat, and some have seats that can be reversible or a carrycot in the middle. They are larger, and easier to get into and out of. However, their baskets tend to be smaller than those on buggies that are single. They also have larger large canopies that have peekaboo windows and a cup holder for the parent and cushioned leg cushions for the children.

The iCandy Peach is another example of a great value lightweight tandem. The fabrics are less expensive than some of our top-rated doubles. But, it looks great and is easy to use. Its one-handed folding is awe-inspiring. Although it takes some practice, Kirstie from our Lab described it as "genius". The carrycot is not foldable while it's attached. However, the process to attach and remove the carrycot is simple and quick.

Tandem lightweight double pushchairs will typically make tighter turns than side-byside models, however, they can be more challenging to drive over uneven surfaces and curbs. They can also be slightly slower to accelerate and are heavier to move, which could put strain on your back.

A convertible double buggy is another alternative. It is initially a single however, you can add adapters to make it a double buggy from birth. It can have an additional seat or carrycot in the front, or the children can be seated side-by-side. Some can also consider including a buggyboard that can help an older child keep up with a younger brother or sister.

The Uppababy Vista V2 is a great example of a convertible, because it can also be converted into a twin pushchair from birth pram with the purchase of additional cocoons (PS59 each) that provide a flat space for newborns. They can be attached together or placed in a row. You can also use the car seat that was included with the pushchair, in the event that it is compatible with the. These buggies with dual-use capabilities are made of 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

It also handles rough terrain well and, as a tandem triple is suitable for twins or children of various age groups.

This iCandy model is incredibly easy to fold with a one-handed system. It's also heavier than some of the other pushchairs that are single-to-double in this review, our home tester Karolina said that it still feels extremely maneuverable, even with two toddlers and a carrycot.

You can purchase additional items like the Roma Gemini Carrycots (PS100) which are great for babies. The seats are comfortable for toddlers, with good headrests and lumbar support. There are a variety of options for reclining the seats and the front seat is adjustable in different positions and the back seat having an option to recline.

The main drawback to this type of buggy is that it is generally larger overall than the side-by-side doubles and makes it difficult to navigate through doorways and can be tricky to maneuver up and down kerbs. However, the wheels and suspension on these models generally perform well in dealing with pavements 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 remember that these types of strollers aren't as adept at walking through the narrow aisles of supermarkets, and may struggle to handle a lot of shopping. Even though it's easier to turn the stroller around on a narrow, curving path, it can be a problem. Some are also easier to turn than others, like the Thule Urban Glide 2 Double and the Baby Trend Sit N' Stand Double, for example.

Convertible

Convertible double pushchairs are ideal because they can be adapted to the changing needs of the family. They often start out as single buggies and include adapters to add the second seat, a carrycot, or (in certain cases) the car seat to the frame. Some of them can be converted back to a single buggie when your older child begins to walk more or wants to ride on buggy boards.

This stylish tri-fold double stroller is among of the lightest on our list. It can hold up to 40 lbs per child and comes with an integrated storage basket between the seats.

This multi-functional tandem is the top pick of our home testers because it is simple to maneuver and features a large basket for shopping that can be accessed from both seats when they are in the parent-facing positions. Its light weight (about the same as some single pushchairs) makes it easy to move around. Many have praised the clever way it attaches the second seat or riding board in the back. Parents also admired that it accommodates car seats and infant carriers from multiple brands. This includes those that aren't normally compatible with other double buggies.
