11 Methods To Redesign Completely Your Double Pushchair
Which Lightweight Double Pushchair Should You Buy?
It's easy to move around with the lightweight double pushchair especially if you have kids with different ages. They are easy to fold, steer and carry up and down the steps.
This City Mini GT2 features side-by-side seating with plenty of legroom. It also features adjustable reclining, large UPF 50+ canopy, and peekaboo windows. It also features a smart frame that expands widthways to accommodate a second seat and compatible car seat(s).
Side-by-Side
The majority of the lightweight double pushchairs we tested were side-by-side models. These are best for children who can sit up without assistance, as they lack compatibility with car seats. The Thule Urban Glide 2 Double and the Baby Trend Sit 'N Stand Double, are both excellent choices. They have recline that can be adjusted for both seats, a huge canopy, and padded five-point safety harnesses. They are also simple to maneuver despite their larger footprint. They are perfect for parents who worry about fitting through doors.
The Cybex Duet pushchair is unique because of its clever frame that expands to allow for another child seat. This makes it lighter than other side-byside pushchairs. This means it fits through doors that are standard and is easy to move around on public transport. It is also an jogger which is perfect for those who plan to use it with an infant car seat or a baby carrier.
Another great side-by-side, lightweight double is the UPPAbaby Vista v2 Double, which offers even more flexibility and customization thanks to its modular frame. It has a smart design that lets you transform it into a single buggy or a double by adding 2 carrycots or car seats (it can even accommodate twins). It's an outstandingly practical choice for families with growing children and the UPPAbaby is one of the tiniest and most fashionable umbrella strollers around.
Try the egg2, which can be folded down to the size and weight of a small suitcase. It can be used as a single double with the addition of two carrycots or infant car seats and our home testers were awed by how simple and sleek it was to carry, even when fully loaded with kids.
Although they're lightweight double pushchairs side-by-side do not guarantee safety. If your children are at the same age and stage, they could be fighting over who sits in which seat. If they are at different heights then it is possible that a tandem design is ideal for them as it lets them face each other.
Tandem

While side-byside models might be more appropriate for siblings who are the same age, tandem lightweight double pushchairs are a different kind of pushchair with their own appeal. Some can fit an extra car seat, while some have seats that can be reversible. Others have an extra carrycot or a reclined seat that can be flipped in the middle. They are more spacious, and easier to get into and out of. However their baskets tend to be smaller than those found on buggies that are single. Many have larger canopies as well as peekaboo windows, and even padded leg cushions.
The iCandy Peach is another example of a good-value lightweight tandem. Its fabrics feel a little less expensive than our other top-rated doubles, however, it still looks and feels great and is easy to use. One of the most impressive aspects about it is its single-handed fold. While it requires practice, Kirstie in our Lab said it's "genius". It can't be folded with the carrycot attached, but the mechanism for attaching and taking it off it is simple and fast.
Tandem pushchairs that are lightweight typically make tighter turns than side-by-side models however, they can be more difficult to drive on bumps and uneven surfaces. They can also be slower to accelerate and are heavier to move. This can put strain on your back.
A convertible double buggy is another option. It's initially one however, you can add adapters to make it double. It can also include the option of a second seat, a carrycot or both in front. Or the children can share a seat. Some can also consider including a buggyboard that assists an older child to keep up with younger siblings or brothers.
The Uppababy Vista V2 can be transformed into a twin-sized pushchair by purchasing additional cocoons for PS59 each. These cocoons create an area that is flat for newborns. Push Chairs And Prams can be swiveled together or placed side-by-side. You can also use the car seat that came with the pushchair if it is compatible with the. These buggies with dual-use capabilities are made of quality materials and can last for a long time without showing any wear. This means they have an excellent resale value.
Single-to-Double
Ideal for families who love to be outdoors and want to upgrade from a single stroller, this lightweight double buggy turns into a jogger with the help of an impressive kit that comes with air-filled tyres, as well as all-wheel suspension. It's also a good option for twins, or children of different ages and, as triple tandem, it is able to take on rough terrain. It's a great choice for parents who want a chic design as sleek as a single and is available in a variety of colors.
We loved the way this iCandy model folds into itself with just one hand, making it really simple to master. It's also heavier than some of the other single-to-double pushchairs in this review, home tester Karolina claimed that it feels extremely maneuverable, even with two toddlers and a carrycot.
The seat can be used as a parent-facing, and you can also purchase additional accessories for this stroller like the Roma Gemini carrycots (PS100 each), which are ideal for infants. The seats are comfortable for toddlers with high-quality headrests and lumbar supports. There are a variety of options for reclining the seats, with the front seat can be adjusted to different positions, and the back seat having a reclining option.
This type of buggy has the biggest disadvantage of being a bit wider than the side-by-side doubles. This makes it difficult to maneuver through doorways, and it can be difficult to get between kerbs. However the suspension and wheels on these types of strollers generally do a good job of coping with paved surfaces and the fact that they're usually significantly lighter than the side-by-sides, means you still have a decent amount of storage space. It's important to remember that these strollers aren't as adept at getting through narrow aisles in supermarkets, and may struggle to handle a large amount of shopping. It's a bit easier to turn around on the smallest curves of paths but even this can be difficult. 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 benefit of convertible double pushchairs is the ability to adapt to a family's changing needs. They typically start as single buggies, but have adapters that allow you to add the second seat, a carrycot, or (in certain cases) the car seat to the frame. Some are able to be converted to a single one when your child's older age begins to walk or chooses to ride buggyboards.
One of the lightest double strollers we have on our list, this fashionable tri-fold model can hold children as heavy as 40 pounds each. It comes with a convenient basket that can be placed between the seats for storage. The home testers loved the spacious canopy with peekaboo windows, multi-position reclining seats and front and rear suspensions to ensure smoother rides on rough terrain. It also has a handy parent cup holder and a large, easy-to access basket. However, they pointed out that the backs of the seats have small pockets that aren't big enough to hold much more than a smartphone and keys.
This high-end, lightweight side-by-side can be used in more than 20 different configurations and includes an additional seat and carrycot. Its impressive set of features includes an ergonomic handlebar with a high profile for better steering; front and rear suspension to smooth rough terrain; a self-standing, compact fold that has straps that make it easy to schlep and seven-inch swivel lock front wheels and 10-inch rear wheels with suspension for a smoother ride. The only downside is that you'll have to purchase an additional car seat or baby carrier.
This versatile tandem is a top pick by our home testers due to its maneuverability and large shopping basket, which can be accessed with both seats in the parent-facing position. Its surprisingly light weight (about the same as a few single pushchairs) makes it a breeze to maneuver. Its reversible seats mean that you can flip them to face either way, and the clever method by which it connects a second seat or riding board to the rear is highly praised by many. Parents also liked the fact that it could accommodate infant carriers and car seats from various brands, including those that don't normally fit in other double buggies.
