Choosing a Double Pram and Pushchair

A double pram can make life easier for families, especially in busy shops or on busy streets. Choose a model that has plenty of storage space to store nappies snacks, nappies, and other necessities.

Some first-time parents opt for a future-proof pushchair that can be used as a single pram once baby is born, and later converted into a twin mode once he or she is born. Joolz offers a wide range of choices.

Tandem

The announcement that you're expecting a baby is one of the most exciting moments in life. However, once the initial excitement wears off and the reality sets in, you may be faced with a myriad of decisions regarding how to prepare your family for the arrival of your new one or ones. One of the most important aspects to consider is choosing the right pram or pushchair.

Tandem prams (also called "in-line" double prams) are a classic design that feature two bassinets or seats for prams arranged side by side. The front seat, which is typically padded, reclines flat and is suitable for newborns. The second seat is more upright and designed to fit toddlers as young as three years old. Some models allow you to decide if your children will look at each other or look outwards. Many tandems have the option to convert into a single pushchair in the event that you decide your oldest child does not require the second seat.

In terms of price it is cheaper than a twin pushchair from birth pushchair, and is a great option for parents looking to save money, but not compromise on safety or convenience. However, one disadvantage of a tandem is that it can feel long and heavy to steer, particularly when going up or down kerbs, and it is usually less stable than a twin pushchair, especially if the child who is older is sitting in the front. A tandem can be difficult to fit on public transport, and it can be difficult to maneuver narrow pavements.

The iCandy Peach, a popular model that focuses on image, is an excellent alternative for a single parent who wants an elegant appearance. However the tandem mode makes it feel heavy and long to push. It features a clever frame that can be expanded to allow the addition of the second seat, and can be used with a variety of combinations of carrycots, buggy chairs and car seats (two at a time or in separate). The iCandy Wave is another lightweight tandem option that's simple to use and compatible with a range of carrycots and car seats.

Side by side

There are many aspects to think about when selecting a double pushchair or pram. There are many configuration options to choose from, regardless of whether you're purchasing for twins or close-in-age siblings. Tandem prams (also called side by side prams) are a popular choice because they can be arranged to fit infants in a bassinet at the top, while the larger toddler or infant is in the seat below.

Some models have reversible seating that let you customize the layout of your family during the infant and toddler years. This lets you see your children at all times and gives them the chance to interact while they walk.

Tandem prams are typically jogging or all-terrain buggies that is why they're great for outdoor excursions and the park. They're also a great option for those who have to navigate narrow supermarket isles or checkouts because they tend to be more compact than single-seaters.

The Redsbaby JIVE3 pram, for instance, can be used in tandem mode right from birth, but with the addition of a Rumble seat. (PS249) If your child is no longer a member of the rumble chair, you can change to the single pram mode. You can also opt to make use of the car capsule adaptors to convert it from a newborn to toddler travel system.

Another alternative is the Side by Side Pram from Babybee. The side-by-side double pram is available in a range of colors and comes with an elegant modern design. It is designed to be used from the moment of birth, you can include the LUNA Cocoon for newborns (PS262) and the LUNA Infant Seats (PS53 each).

If you're looking for a sleek, elegant pushchair that can convert into a double-sided side-by-side and a side-by-side double, the Egg 2 from Chicco is an excellent choice. It's available in a range of infant and carrycot combinations to accommodate twins or siblings of different age groups and is easy to fold. It's also quite light and therefore an ideal option for those with small cars or limited storage space.

Convertible

The best double prams and pushchairs can be used in a variety of ways and some are able to change into different seating arrangements to meet the changing needs of your family. It is possible to fit two toddlers in a seat or even a third one on the seat board and still have room for a shopping basket, and the ability to add accessories like rain covers is also a advantage. Convertible double strollers are generally heavier and larger than single pushchairs due to the fact that they are designed to accommodate two or more children. The Graco Modes Nest2Grow convertible is an example of a very inexpensive convertible that is very easy to use. However, our reviewers considered it to be a bit heavy for the money.

Some double strollers that convert into convertibles, such as the Baby Jogger City Select 2 have a carrycot that is suitable for newborns. This helps to reduce the size of the double stroller when it is not in use, and makes it more compact. Our test participants were awestruck by the City Select's innovative one-handed fold. However, it takes a bit of practice. It's also very nimble and agile, despite being larger than double strollers.

Another option that is reasonably priced is the Cybex Mockingbird single to double pushchair from birth Buggy [www.google.co.uz]-to-double buggy converts to single Stroller. It can be converted from a parent-facing infant car seat to a forward-facing toddler seat. The bassinet feature makes it a great option for infants.

For greater flexibility, opt for a dual-mode convertible like the iCandy Peach. This is a narrow double buggy that can hold 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 is agile and responsive, and our test users liked its sleek design. It's not as light as some of the other models on our list but it has a large basket that's great for parents who have to carry bags of toys and other items.

Lightweight

Some parents prefer to secure their double buggy if they have one child and are expecting another and a convertible model is a great option. The iCandy Peach can be converted from a single pushchair into double by the addition of a toddler seat, or the brand's carrycot (which is ideal to sleep at night). Our testers were pleased with how comfortable the seats are and love the fact that both recline to different positions, come with built-in leg and foot support and have UPF 50+ canopies with windows that peek out. The rear seat can be raised high so that the child who is older can stand on it to reach the basket of shopping.

The only drawback of the iCandy Peach is that it is quite heavy, however Cher believed that it was balanced by the ease to manoeuvre and how spacious the storage space is, with two hanging child and parent cup holders, seat-back pockets and a large underseat storage basket. Cher also appreciated the feature that the seats are adjustable, meaning they can be set to face each other for siblings who wish to chat and interact together while out and out and about.

A lighter and equally impressive choice is the Delta Children LX side-by-side stroller that weighs only 18 lbs, is super compact and has a self-standing fold, making it easy to transport and store in your trunk or at home. Parents appreciate the high-quality materials and workmanship, as well as the price. The only drawbacks are that the seats do not recline as much as other models we have tested and the rear seat is not as visible due to its position - it is raised higher than the seat in front.

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