Side-by-Side

The majority of light double pushchairs that we test are side-byside models and are best suited for kids who can sit up unassisted, as these models aren't equipped with car seat integration. That said there are some exceptions. Thule Urban Glide 2 Double and the Baby Trend Sit 'N Stand Double are both excellent options that offer recline that can be adjusted in both seats, a wide canopy, and padded 5-point harnesses.

Side-by-side lightweight double pushchairs aren't 100% foolproof, however- if your children are at the same age or stage they may still fight over who is allowed to ride in which seat. If they're taller than each other it could be that a tandem design might be better for them as it lets them look at each other.

Tandem

While side-by-side models are more appropriate for siblings with similar ages, tandem lightweight double pushchairs offer their own perks. They can take a bigger car seat, and some even have seats that can be reversible or a carrycot in the middle. They are more spacious and are easier to get into and out of. However their baskets tend to be smaller than the ones found on buggies that are single. Many also feature more generously sized canopies with peekaboo windows as well as a cup holder for parents and padding for the legs of children.

The iCandy Peach is another example of a great value lightweight tandem. Its fabric feels a bit less premium than some of our other top-rated tandems, however, it still looks and feels great and is very user-friendly. Its one-handed folding is impressive.

However, the mechanism to attach and remove the carrycot is easy and quick.

Tandem lightweight double pushchairs will generally make more precise turns than side-byside models, however, they can be more difficult to drive on uneven surfaces and curbs. They are also slower to accelerate and more heavy to move. This puts strain on your back.

A convertible double buggy is a different alternative. It's initially one however, you can add adapters to convert it into a double. These can include an additional seat or carrycot in front, or the children can be seated side-by-side.

These dual-use buggies are made from high-quality materials and can last for a long time without showing any wear. This means that they have an excellent resale value.

Single-to-double stroller

For families who love the outdoors and want to upgrade their single stroller, this light double buggy transforms into a jogger thanks to an innovative kit that includes air-filled tyres as well as all-wheel suspension.

You can buy add-ons such as the Roma Gemini Carrycots (PS100) which are great for babies. Our panel of testers found that the seats were comfortable for toddlers and had good headrests and lumbar support.

The main drawback to this kind of buggy is that it tends to be larger overall than doubles that are side-by-side and makes it difficult to get through doorways and can be difficult to maneuver up and down kerbs. The wheels and suspension of these types of strollers are generally good at coping with paved surfaces. They're also lighter than many side-by-sides which means you can have plenty of storage space. It's important to remember that these strollers double aren't as good at navigating narrow aisles in supermarkets and aren't able to handle a large amount of shopping. It's a bit easier to turn around on the smallest of curved paths, but even this can be a challenge. Some are also easier to turn than others, with the Thule Urban Glide 2 Double and the Baby Trend Sit N' Stand Double, for example.

Convertible

The benefit of convertible double pushchairs is that they are able to adapt to changing family needs. They are typically single buggies, and have adapters that allow you to include a second child's seat, a carrycot, or (in some cases) a car-seat to the frame. Some can be converted back to a single buggie when your child reaches the age of walk or prefers to ride buggyboards.

One of the lightest double strollers we have on our list, this sleek tri-fold model can hold children as heavy as 40 pounds each. It also has a handy basket in between the seats to store things.

This multi-functional tandem is the top pick of our home testers due to the fact that it is easy to maneuver and has a large shopping basket that is accessible from both seats when they are in the parent-facing position. It is a breeze to maneuver thanks to its low weight (about the same as a few single pushchairs). Many have praised the clever way it connects the second seat or riding board to the back.
