Side-by-Side

The majority of the lightweight double pushchairs we tried were side-by-side models. These are the best for children who can sit up without assistance, as they aren't as likely to have car seat compatibility. That said, the Thule Urban Glide 2 Double and the Baby Trend Sit 'N Stand Double are both great options that provide adjustable recline in both seats, a wide canopy, and padded 5-point harnesses. They are also simple to maneuver, despite their larger footprint. They are great for parents who fret about getting through doors.

Side-by-side pushchairs that are lightweight aren't foolproof however -when your children are of the same age or stage, they might still argue over who gets to ride in which seat. And if they're at different heights, a tandem model could be better for them as it lets them look at each other.

Tandem

While side-byside models are better for children of the same age group, tandem light double strollers have distinct appeals. Some can accommodate an extra car seat, while some have reversible seats. Some even come with an extra carrycot or a reclined seat that can be flipped in the middle. They are generally more spacious and simple to access and exit from, although their baskets are typically smaller than those on single buggies. Many have larger canopies, peekaboo windows and even cushioned leg cushions.

Its fabrics feel a little less luxurious than our other top-rated tandems, however, it still looks and feels great and is user-friendly.

It's not foldable with the carrycot attached, but the mechanism for attaching and taking it off it is simple and fast.

However, the wheels and suspension on these types of strollers generally are capable of dealing with pavements and the fact that they're significantly lighter than the side-bysides means that you still have plenty of storage space.

Convertible

The benefit of convertible double pushchairs is that they can adapt to a family's changing requirements. Most of the time, they begin as single buggies and have adapters that allow you to add a second child's seat or carrycot, or (in some cases) a car-seat to the frame. Some of them can be converted back to a single buggie when your child grows older and begins to walk more or wants to ride on a buggy board.
