Side-by-Side

The majority of the lightweight double pushchairs that we test are side-byside models and are generally recommended for kids who can sit up on their own, as these models tend to lack car seat integration. The Thule Urban Glide 2 Double and the Baby Trend Sit 'N Stand Double, are both excellent options. They come with an recline adjustments for both seats, a huge canopy, and padded five-point safety harnesses. They are also easy to maneuver, despite their larger footprint. They are great for parents who are worried about fitting through doors.

The Cybex Duet pushchair is unique because of its clever frame that expands to accommodate another child seat. This makes it lighter than other side-byside pushchairs.

Even though they are lightweight twin buggy double pushchairs that sit side-by-side do not guarantee safety. If your children are at the same age and stage, they might still argue over who sits in which spot. If they're different heights, a tandem model could be better for them, as it will allow them to confront each other.

Tandem

While side-by-side models are best for children of similar age group, tandem light double stroller strollers come with distinct appeals. They can be fitted with a larger car seat, and some have seats that can be reversible or a carrycot in the middle. They are generally more spacious and easy to access and exit from however their baskets are usually smaller than those of single buggies. They also have larger big canopies with windows that peek out as well as a cup holder for parents and padding for the legs of children.

The iCandy Peach tandem is another great example of a lightweight tandem that provides excellent value. The fabric is a little less premium than some of our other top-rated doubles, however, it still looks and feels great and is very easy to use. Its one-handed folding is awe-inspiring. While it requires some practice, Kirstie from our Lab called it "genius". It can't be folded without the carrycot attached, but the mechanism for attaching and taking it off it is simple and fast.

Tandem lightweight double strollers will typically have tighter turning capabilities than side-by-side models. However, they can be harder to drive on uneven surfaces and curbs. They can also be slower to accelerate and more heavy to move. This can put stress on your back.

A convertible double buggy is a different alternative. It is initially an individual however, you can add adapters to make it double. It can also have a second seat, carrycot, or both in the front. Or the children can sit together. Some can also consider including a buggyboard, which can help an older child keep up with younger siblings or brothers.

The Uppababy Vista V2 can be converted into a twin-sized pram by purchasing additional cocoons at PS59 each. The cocoons create an open space for infants. They can be placed on top of each other or positioned to one another, and you can use them with the baby car seat that is included with the pushchair (as long as you choose a compatible one). These buggies for dual-use are made of high-quality materials and can be used for a long time without showing any wear. This means they have an excellent resale value.

Single-to-Double

This compact double buggy is designed for families who love to go on outdoor adventures and want to upgrade from an individual-stroller. It can be transformed into a jogger by acquiring a kit that includes air-filled tires and all-wheel-suspension. It can also handle rough terrain well and it's a tandem triple that is ideal for twins or children of different ages. It's an excellent choice for parents who want a chic design as simple as a single. It comes in various colors of fabric.

We loved the way that this iCandy model folds into itself with a one-handed mechanism that's extremely easy to master. It's heavier than other single-to Double prams for toddlers pushchairs, but our home test Karolina says it's still very mobile even with two toddlers inside and the carrycot.

You can purchase additional items such as the Roma Gemini Carrycots (PS100) which are perfect for newborns. Our panel of testers found that the seats to be comfortable for toddlers and had good lumbar support and headrests. There are numerous options to recline the seats, with the front seat adjustable in different positions and the back seat offering an option to recline.

The biggest drawback of this type of buggy is that it tends to be wider overall than side-by-side doubles and makes it difficult to get through doorways and is difficult to maneuver up and down kerbs. However, the wheels and suspension on these types of strollers generally are capable of handling paved surfaces, and the fact that they're generally significantly lighter than the side-bysides means that you still have a decent amount of storage space. These strollers can be difficult to maneuver through supermarkets with narrow aisles and they may struggle to carry a lot. It's easier to turn around even on the smallest of curving paths but it can be difficult to turn them around on a straight path. 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 great thing about convertible double pushchairs is the ability to adapt to changing family needs. They are typically single buggies and include adapters that permit you to add a second child's chair or carrycot, or (in certain instances) a car-seat to the frame. Some of them can be converted back to a single buggie when your child gets older and starts to walk more or wants to ride on buggy boards.

It also has an easy-to-use cup holder for parents and an ample accessible, easily accessible basket. The backs have tiny pockets, which are just big enough to fit the phone and a set of keys.

This versatile tandem is the top choice of our home testers because it is simple to maneuver and features a large shopping basket that is accessible from both seats when they are in the parent-facing position. Its surprisingly light weight (about the same as single pushchairs) makes it a breeze to move. Its reversible seats mean that you can flip them to face either direction and the clever way it can attach a second seat or riding board to the rear is highly praised by many. Parents also appreciated the fact that it can accommodate car seats and infant carriers from multiple brands. This includes those that aren't normally compatible with other double buggies.
