Side-by-Side

The majority of the lightweight double pushchairs that we test are side-byside models and they're generally best twin stroller for kids who can sit up unassisted, as these models tend to lack car seat integration. The Thule Urban Glide 2 Double, and Baby Trend Sit 'N Stand double stroller sale, are both excellent options.

Side-by-side lightweight double pushchairs aren't foolproof, though -If your children are at the same age or stage, they may still fight over who gets to ride in which seat. And if they're at different heights, a tandem model could be more suitable for them since it allows them to look at each other.

Tandem

While side-by-side models may be more suitable for siblings of the same age tandem pushchairs that are lightweight have their own charms. Some can fit carseats that are larger, and others come with reversible seats. Others have an extra carrycot or a reversible seat in the middle. They are generally more spacious and simple to get in and out of, although their baskets tend to be smaller than the ones on single buggies. Many have larger canopies with windows that peek out and padding for the leg cushions.

The iCandy Peach tandem is another good example of a lightweight tandem that offers great value. The fabric is a little less premium than some of our other top-rated doubles but it still looks and feels great and is user-friendly. Its one-handed folding is impressive. While it requires some time to master, Kirstie from our Lab called it "genius". The carrycot cannot be folded when it is attached. However, the mechanism to attach and remove the carrycot is quick and easy.

Another option is a convertible double buggy which starts off as one-person, but you can add adapters that turn it into a double. It could include a second seat, carrycot or both in front.

The seat can be used as a parent-facing, and you can also buy add-ons for this stroller, such as the Roma Gemini carrycots (PS100 each) that are perfect for infants. Our test panel found the seats to be comfortable for toddlers and had good lumbar support and headrests. There are many options to recline the seats, with the front seat can be adjusted to different positions, and the back seat also having an option to recline.

The main drawback to this type of buggy is that it tends to be wider overall than side-by-side doubles and makes it difficult to navigate through doorways and can be difficult to maneuver up and down kerbs. The wheels and suspension of these strollers are generally good at coping with surfaces that are paved. They're also lighter than many side-bysides which means you can have plenty of storage. It's important to keep in mind that strollers of this type aren't as good at getting through narrow aisles in supermarkets and aren't able to handle a large amount of shopping. It's easier to turn around even on the smallest of curving paths but even this can be a challenge. Some are easier to turn than other models, like the Thule Urban Glide 2 Double or the Baby Trend Sit N' Stand Double.

Convertible

Convertible double pushchairs are great because they can be adjusted to the changing requirements of the family. Most of the time, they begin as single buggies, and have adapters that allow you to include a second child's seat or a carrycot (in some cases) a car-seat to the frame. Some can be converted back to a single when your child reaches the age of walk or chooses to ride a buggyboard.
