Side-by-Side

The majority of lightweight double pushchairs we've tested are side-by-side models and are generally recommended for kids who can sit up unassisted because they tend to be lacking car seat integration. That said they do have a few advantages. Thule Urban Glide 2 Double and Baby Trend Sit 'N Stand Double are both excellent options that offer recline that can be adjusted in both seats, a large canopy, and padded five-point harnesses. These are also easy to move around despite their larger footprint. They are great for parents who fret about getting through doors.

Although they're light double pushchairs side-by-side are not foolproof. If your children are of the same age and stage, they might still argue over who sits in which seat. If they're taller than each other, a tandem model could be better for them as it lets them look at each other.

Tandem

While side-byside models might be more appropriate for siblings of the same age, tandem lightweight double pushchairs offer their own perks. Some can accommodate carseats that are larger, and others have reversible seats. Others have an extra carrycot or a reversible seat in the middle. They are bigger and easy to get in and out of. However, their baskets tend to be smaller than those found on single buggies. Many also feature more generously big canopies with windows that peek out and a cup holder for the parent and padding for the legs of young children.

The iCandy Peach tandem is another good example of a lightweight tandem that provides great value. Its fabric feels a bit less premium than some of our other top-rated doubles, but it looks and feels great and is easy to use. Its one-handed folding is impressive. While it requires some practice, Kirstie from our Lab described it as "genius". The carrycot can't be folded while it's attached. However, the process to attach and remove the carrycot is simple and quick.

Tandem double pushchairs are light and lightweight. They generally make more precise turns than side-byside models, however they are more challenging to drive over bumps and uneven surfaces. They can also be slower to accelerate and heavier to move. This can put strain on your back.

Another option is a convertible double buggy which is initially an individual and then you can add adapters to make it into a double. It could include an additional seat, a carrycot or both in front. Children can be seated together. Some may have the option of adding a buggyboard, which assists an older child to keep up with siblings who are younger.

The Uppababy Vista V2 is a good example of a convertible, as it can also convert into a twin pram through the purchase of additional cocoons (PS59 each) that create a lie-flat space for infants.

Because they're made from high-quality materials, these dual-use buggies can often be used for a long time without showing much wear, meaning they have the highest potential for resale.

However the suspension and wheels on these models generally do a good job of dealing with pavements and the fact that they're much lighter than some of the side-by-sides means you can still have a decent amount of storage space. These strollers can be difficult to maneuver around supermarkets with narrow aisles, and they may struggle to carry loads. Even though it's easier to turn the stroller around on a narrow, curving path, it can be a challenge. Some are more easy to turn than other models, like the Thule Urban Glide 2 Double or the Baby Trend Sit N' Stand Double.

Convertible

The great thing about convertible double pushchairs is that they are able to adapt to the changing family requirements. They typically start as single buggies and include adapters to add a second seat, carrycot or (in some cases) a car seat to the frame. Some can be converted to a single one when your child reaches the age of walk or prefers to ride buggyboards.
