Choosing a Double Pram and Pushchair

A double pram can simplify life for families, especially in busy shopping centers or on busy streets. Choose a model with generous storage space for stowing nappies, snacks and other essentials.

Some first-time parents choose a pushchair that is future-proof and can be used as a single stroller once baby is born, and transformed into a twin stroller side by side-mode when the baby is born. Joolz has a variety of options.

Tandem

The news that you're expecting the birth of a child is one of the most exciting moments in life. Once the excitement has worn off and the reality of the situation sets in, you'll be faced with many decisions regarding how to prepare your family. One of the most important things to consider is choosing the correct pram or pushchair.

Tandem prams, also known as "in-line" double prams, are a classic design with two bassinets or chairs placed side-by-side. The front seat is typically covered in padding and reclines to a flat position, making it suitable for infants, while the second seat is more upright and is able to accommodate toddlers up to three years old. of age. Certain models feature the option of reversible seating, which lets you decide if your children face one another or look at you. Many tandems can be converted to one pushchair once your oldest child is no longer in need of the second seat.

A tandem is less expensive than a twin pram and is an excellent choice for parents looking to save money, without losing safety or function. A tandem can be a bit heavy and difficult to steer, particularly when negotiating kerbs. It's also less stable than twin prams especially when a bigger child is seated in the front. A tandem can be difficult to place on public transportation, and it can be difficult to navigate narrow pavements.

The iCandy Peach, a popular model that focuses on image, is a fantastic alternative for parents who are single and want an elegant appearance. However the tandem mode can make it feel heavy and long to push. It's got an expanded frame that increases in size to accommodate a second seat. It can be used with a variety of combinations of car seats, buggy seats, and carrycots (two at one time or in separate). The iCandy Wave is another lightweight tandem option that is easy to use and compatible with a variety of car seats and carrycots.

Side by side

When it comes time to choose a double pushchair or pram there's a lot to think about. There are a variety of configuration options to choose from, whether you're buying for twins or close-in-age siblings. Tandem prams, also known as side-by-side prams, are popular options because they can be configured so that the infant can sit in the bassinet on top while the toddler or older child is sitting in the second seat.

Some models have reversible seating that allow you to customize the configuration for your family during the infant and toddler years. This lets you see your children at all times, and gives them the chance to interact as they walk.

Tandem prams are typically jogging buggies or all-terrain ones, which means they're ideal for outdoor excursions and the park. They're also ideal for narrow aisles and checkouts in supermarkets and shops as they are more compact.

The Redsbaby JIVE3 Pram, for example, can be used as a tandem pram right from birth in dual mode by adding the use of the rumble seat (PS249). It is then possible to switch to the single mode once your baby is old enough to leave the rumble seat or select the car capsule adaptors (PS53) to turn it into a traveler from newborn to toddler.

The Side by Side Pram by Babybee is another alternative. This double side-by-side pram comes in a variety of colours and is designed in a contemporary design. Designed to be used right from the moment of birth, you can include the LUNA Cocoon for newborns (PS262) and the LUNA Infant Seats (PS53 each).

The Egg 2 is a stylish sleek pushchair that can be transformed into a double side by side. It's available in a variety of infant seat and carrycot combinations to accommodate twins or siblings of varying age groups and is easy to fold. It's also quite light making it an ideal option for those with small cars or limited storage space.

Convertible

Some of the best double pushchairs or prams can be made into various seats to meet your changing needs. It is possible to fit up to three children on the seat board, or two toddlers in the seats and still have room for shopping bags. Accessories like rain covers are also available. Most convertible double strollers are larger and heavier than single pushchairs because they are required to be able to hold two or more children. The Graco Modes Nest2Grow convertible is an example of a very affordable convertible that is simple to use. However, our reviewers found it to be somewhat heavy for the money.

Some convertible double strollers like the Baby Jogger City Select 2, have a carrycot option which is suitable for newborns. This allows the double stroller to be compacted and reduce in size when not being used. The City Select's clever folding system that is one-handed impressed our test participants, but it takes some practice. It's also quite agile and responsive, despite it being bigger than double strollers.

The Cybex Mockingbird single-to-thule double stroller stroller is another option that is reasonably priced. It can be transformed from a parent-facing infant car seat to a forward-facing toddler seat. The bassinet-style mode makes it a great option for infants.

If you're looking for more flexibility look into a convertible with dual modes such as the iCandy Peach. This is a narrow double buggy which can accommodate 2 children side by side however it can also be used as a tandem with the addition of a second seat kit and rider board. It feels fluid and responsive, and our testers liked its sleek design. It's not as light as the other pushchairs on our list however it does come with a large shopping basket which is ideal for parents with bags of toys and food.

lightweight double pushchair

Some parents like to future-proof their double buggy if they have one child and are expecting another and a convertible model is a great option. The iCandy Peach allows you to change from a single pushchair to a double pushchair with the addition of either an infant seat or the brand's carrycot (which is suitable for sleeping at night). The seats are very comfortable and our testers love that they can be reclined in a variety of positions. They also love the feature that the canopy comes with a peekaboo window and UPF 50+ protection. The rear seat can be raised so that the child who is older can stand on it to reach the shopping basket.

The only issue with the iCandy Peach is that it is quite heavy, but Cher believed that this was overcome by its ease to maneuver and how large the storage area is with two hanging parent and child cup holders as well as seat-back pockets, and a large underseat basket. She also appreciated the fact that the seats are reversible, so they can be set to face each other for siblings that want to talk and get together when out and out and about.

A lighter and equally impressive option is the Delta Children LX side-by-side stroller that weighs only 18 pounds, is extremely compact and features a self-standing fold that makes it easy to carry and store in your trunk or at home. Parents appreciate the quality of the materials and workmanship as well as the low price point. The only drawbacks are that the seats don't recline as much as other models we have tested and the rear seat is not as visible due to its location as it is higher than the seat in front.

Another popular option is the Joolz Geo 3, which is slim and sleek. It is also easy to steer, and comes with an attractive design and a lifetime guarantee. Although they are narrower, side-by-side prams can still be larger than tandems and inline doubles. This makes them difficult to maneuver around busy footpaths and in shops. They are also smaller which makes them more maneuverable in tight spaces.
