Which Lightweight Double Pushchair Should You Buy?
It's easy to move around with a Lightweight Double Pushchair (Http://Spectr-Sb116.Ru/User/Buffetdesert0/), particularly if you have children of different age groups. They're generally easy to steer, fold and transport up and down the stairs.
This City Mini GT2 features side-by-side seating with plenty of legroom. It also has adjustable reclining, large UPF 50+ canopy and windows that peek out. It also has an expanding frame size to accommodate the second car seat or an additional passenger.
Side-by-Side
The majority of lightweight double pushchairs we test are side-byside models and are best suited for children that can sit up on their own, as these models aren't equipped with car seat integration. However there are some exceptions. Thule Urban Glide 2 Double and Baby Trend Sit 'N Stand Double are both great options that provide recline that can be adjusted in both seats, a wide canopy, and padded 5-point harnesses. They are also easy to move around despite their bigger footprint. They are perfect for parents who are worried about fitting through doors.
The Cybex Duet pushchair is unique because it has a clever frame that expands to add another child seat. This makes it lighter than other pushchairs that are side-by-side. It can be pushed through standard doors and is easy to maneuver on public transport. It also doubles as a jogger which is great when you're planning to use it with an infant carrier or car seat. It's available in a variety of exciting colors.
Another great side-by-side, lightweight double buggy travel system is the UPPAbaby Vista v2 Double, which offers even more customization through a modular frame. The innovative design allows you to transform it into an individual or double buggy by adding two carrycots or child car seats. It can even accommodate twins. It's an outstandingly practical choice for families that are growing, and the UPPAbaby also is one of the tiniest and most fashionable umbrella strollers available.
If you prefer a more compact lightweight double, try the egg2 which folds down to the size of a small suitcase. It can be used as a single or a double with the addition of two carrycots or infant car seats, and our home testers loved how sleek and simple it was to carry even when stuffed with kids.
Side-by-side lightweight double pushchairs aren't foolproof, though -- if your children are the same age or stage they might still argue over who rides in which seat. If they're different heights, a tandem model could be better for them as it lets them look at each other.
Tandem
While side-by-side models may be better suited for siblings of the same age, tandem lightweight double pushchairs offer their own perks. They can take a bigger car seat, and some come with convertible seats or an additional carrycot that is located in the middle. They are more spacious and are easier to get into and out of. However, their baskets tend to be smaller than those on single buggies. Many also feature more generously big canopies with windows that peek out and a cup holder for the parent and cushioned leg cushions for the little ones.
The iCandy Peach is another example of a lightweight and affordable tandem. The fabrics are less expensive than some of our top-rated doubles. However, it looks great and is easy to use. Its one-handed folding is impressive. Even though it requires some practice, Kirstie from our Lab described it as "genius". The carrycot cannot be folded while it's attached. However, the mechanism to attach and remove the carrycot is quick and easy.
Tandem lightweight double pushchairs will generally have tighter turns than side-byside models, but they can be more challenging to drive over bumps and uneven surfaces. They are also slower to accelerate and more heavy to move. This can put strain on your back.
Another option is a convertible double buggy that starts out as an individual and then you add adapters to turn it into a double. These can include a second seat or carrycot on the front or the kids can be seated side-byside. Some have the option of including a buggyboard, which helps an older child keep pace with a younger brother or sister.
The Uppababy Vista V2 is a great example of a convertible, because it can also be converted into a twin pram through the purchase of additional cocoons (PS59 each) which create a lay-flat area for infants. They can be swiveled together or placed side-by-side. You can also use the car seat that was included with the pushchair, if it is compatible with the. Because they're made from high-quality materials, these kinds of buggies with dual-use capabilities can be used for years without showing much wear, which means they have a an excellent price resales.
Single-to-Double
This compact double pram and pushchair buggy is designed for outdoor-loving family who are looking to upgrade from a single-stroller. It can be transformed into a jogger using the kit that comes with air-filled tires as well as all-wheel suspension. It also handles rough terrain well and, as a tandem triple is suitable for twins or children of different ages. It's a great option for parents who want a stylish design that is as elegant as a single. It is available in a variety of colors.
We loved the way this iCandy model folds down with a one-handed mechanism that's really simple to master. It's heavier than other single-to-double pushchairs, but home tester Karolina says it's mobile even with two toddlers inside and the carrycot.
The seat can be used as a parent-facing and you can purchase accessories for this stroller, such as the Roma Gemini carrycots (PS100 each), which are ideal for babies. Our test panel found the seats to be comfortable for toddlers, with good headrests and lumbar support. There are plenty of options for reclining in the front, with the seat being able to be adjusted to different positions and the rear seat offering the option to recline.
This type of buggy comes with the greatest disadvantage of being wider than doubles that are side-by-side. This makes it difficult to maneuver through doorways and it can be difficult to move between kerbs. However the suspension and wheels on these types of strollers generally perform well in coping with paved surfaces and the fact that they're generally significantly lighter than the side-by-sides, means you still find plenty 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, this can be a hassle. Some are easier to turn than other, such as the Thule Urban Glide 2 Double or the Baby Trend Sit N' Stand Double.
Convertible
The best thing about convertible double pushchairs is the ability to adapt to changing family needs. They typically start as single buggies and include adapters to add the second seat, a carrycot, or (in certain cases) an automobile seat to the frame. Some even convert to a single buggie when your child grows older and begins to walk more or wants to ride on a buggy board.
This stylish tri-fold double stroller is among of the lightest strollers on our list. It can hold up to 40 lbs per child, and includes a storage basket between the seats. The home testers loved the spacious canopy with peekaboo windows multi-position reclining seats, as well as front and rear suspensions to ensure smoother rides on rough terrain. It also has a convenient parent cup holder, and a large accessible, easily accessible basket. However, they noticed that the seats' backs have pockets that aren't large enough to hold much more than a cell phone and keys.
This lightweight, high-end side-by-side is available in more than 20 models. It also comes with a second seat and carrycot. Its impressive feature set includes an ergonomic handlebar with a high profile for better steering; front and rear suspension to smooth rough terrain; a self-standing, compact fold with handy straps for easy schlepping and seven-inch swivel lock front wheels and back wheels that measure 10 inches with suspension for a smoother ride. The only drawback is that you'll have to buy a separate baby carrier or car seat.
This multi-functional tandem is a popular choice among our home testers for its maneuverability and large shopping basket, which can be accessed with both seats facing the parent. It is a breeze to maneuver thanks to its surprisingly low weight (about the same as a few single pushchairs). Many users praise the clever way it connects the second seat or riding board at the back. Parents also appreciated the fact that it could accommodate infant car seats and carriers from multiple brands, including some that don't normally fit into other double buggies.
