Side-by-Side

The majority of the lightweight double pushchairs we test are side-byside models and they're generally best double buggy for children that can stand up without assistance since these models aren't equipped with car seat integration. The Thule Urban Glide 2 double car seat stroller, and Baby Trend Sit 'N Stand Double, are both excellent options. They offer recline adjustments for both seats, a huge canopy, and padded 5-point safety harnesses. They're also easy to maneuver despite their larger footprints and are perfect for parents worried about fitting through doorways.

The Cybex Duet is a little different due to its clever frame that expands in width to accommodate an additional seat, which makes it lighter than other pushchairs with side-by-side seating on the market.

It also doubles as a jogger which is great news for those who want to use it in conjunction with baby carriers or a car seat, and comes in a variety of fun colors.

Another fantastic side-by-side light double is the UPPAbaby Vista v2 Double, that offers more customization through a modular frame.

Even though they are lightweight, double pushchairs that are side-by-side are not foolproof. If your children are at the same age and stage, they may still fight about who gets to sit in which position. And if they're taller than each other, a tandem style might be better for them as it allows them to confront each other.

Tandem

While side-by-side models may be more appropriate for siblings of the same age, tandem lightweight double pushchairs offer their own perks. Some can accommodate an extra car seat, while some have Reversible seats. Others have an extra carrycot or a reclined seat that can be flipped in the middle. They are larger and are easier to get in and out of. However their baskets tend to be smaller than those found on single buggies. Many have larger canopies, peekaboo windows and even padded leg cushions.

The iCandy Peach tandem is another good example of a lightweight tandem that is a excellent value. The fabric is a little less expensive than our other top-rated doubles, but it looks and feels great and is very user-friendly. One of the most impressive aspects about it is the one-handed fold. Although it does require practice, Kirstie in our Lab said it's "genius". It can't be folded without the carrycot attached, however the mechanism for attaching and taking it off it is simple and quick.

They are also a little slower to pick up speed and can be heavier to move, which can result in stress on your back.

Another alternative is a convertible double buggy, which is initially an individual and then you add adapters to turn it into a double. It can also have a second seat, carrycot or both in the front.

They can be joined or placed side-by-side. You can also use the car seat that was included with the pushchair, if it is compatible with the. Since they are made of high-quality materials, these types of buggies that are dual-use can be used for many years without displaying much wear, meaning they have the highest resale value.

This type of buggy has the main disadvantage of being larger than the side-by-side doubles. This makes it difficult to maneuver through doorways and it isn't easy to maneuver up and down kerbs. The suspension and wheels of these types of strollers tend to be able to deal with paved surfaces. They're also lighter than many side-by-sides and, therefore, you can get a lot of storage. It's important to remember that these strollers double aren't as efficient in navigating narrow aisles in supermarkets, and may struggle to handle a large amount of shopping. Even though it's easier to turn the stroller on a narrow curved path, this can still be a problem. Some are also more easy 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 adjusted to the changing needs of a family. They typically start as single buggies, and include adapters to add the second seat, carrycot or (in certain instances) the car seat to the frame. Some of them can be converted back to a single when your child gets older and starts to walk more or prefers to ride on buggy boards.

This stylish tri-fold double stroller can be described as one of the lightest strollers on our list. It can carry up to 40 pounds per child, and includes a storage basket between the seats.

Its lightweight weight (about the same as some single pushchairs) makes it easy to move. Its reversible seats mean that you can flip them to face either direction and the clever way it attaches an additional seat or riding board to the rear is appreciated by many. Parents also liked the fact that it can accommodate infant car seats and carriers from multiple brands, including some which aren't usually fit into other double buggies.
