Choosing a Double Pram and Pushchair

A good double pram or pushchair will simplify life for families, particularly on busy streets or in the shops and stores. Select a model that offers ample storage space to store nappies as well as snacks and other essentials.

Some first-time parents choose a pushchair that is future-proof and can be used both as a single stroller at the time baby is born, and then converted to a twin mode after the baby arrives. Joolz provides a variety of these options.

Tandem

The announcement that you are expecting a child is among life's most exciting moments. But, once the initial excitement wears off and reality begins to sink in, you could be faced with a myriad of decisions about how to prepare your family for the arrival of your new one or one. The right pram or stroller is one of the most important things to consider.

Tandem prams (also called 'in-line' double prams) are a classic style that have two seats or pram bassinets arranged 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 one is more upright and is able to accommodate toddlers up to three years old. older. Certain models feature the option of reversible seating, which lets you decide if your children face towards each other or gaze 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 a great option for parents looking to save money, without having to sacrifice safety or functional. A tandem can be a bit heavy and difficult to steer, particularly when you're tripping over curbs. It's also less stable than twin prams particularly if a larger child is in the front. A tandem can be difficult to get onto public transport and can be difficult to navigate on narrow pavements.

The iCandy Peach, a popular model that focuses on image, is an excellent option for parents who are single and want an attractive style. However the tandem mode can make it feel long and heavy to push. It has a clever frame that expands widthways to accommodate the second seat, and is compatible with many combinations of buggy seats, carrycots and car seats (two at a time or separately). The iCandy Wave tandem is another lightweight option that's user-friendly and compatible with a range of car seats and carrycots.

Side by side

When it comes to choosing a double pram or pushchair there's a lot to consider. There are a variety of configuration options to choose from, whether you're purchasing for twins or close-in-age siblings. Tandem prams (also called side by side prams) are popular choices as they can be arranged to fit infants in a bassinet on the top, while the older toddler or infant is in the second seat below.

Some models come with convertible seats, which means you can modify the seating to suit your family's needs throughout the toddler and baby years. This lets you keep your kids in sight at all times and gives them a chance to interact with each other as they stroll.

Tandem prams are typically jogging buggies or all-terrain ones, which means they're ideal for outdoor adventures and the park. They're also a great option when you have to traverse narrow aisles in the supermarket or at checkouts because they're generally smaller than single-seaters.

The Redsbaby JIVE3 Pram, for example, can be used as a tandem pram right from birth in the dual mode, with the addition of the rumble seat (PS249). Then, you can switch to the single pram mode once your baby grows out of the rumble seat or select the car capsule adaptors (PS53) to turn it into a travel system for infant to toddler.

The Side by Side Pram made by Babybee is another alternative. The side-by-side double pram is available in a range of colours and has an attractive modern style. The design is intended to be used from the moment of birth, you can choose to add the LUNA newborn cocoon (PS262) or the LUNA infant seats (PS53 each) to ensure your children are secure and comfortable.

If you're seeking a sleek, elegant pushchair that can be converted into a side-byside double, the Egg 2 from Chicco is an excellent choice. It's available in a variety of infant and carrycots to accommodate twins or siblings of different ages. It's also easy to fold. It's also quite light, which makes it an ideal option for those with smaller cars or a limited storage space.

Convertible

The top double travel buggy prams and pushchairs can be used in a variety of ways, and some are even able to change into different seat configurations to suit the changing needs of your family. It is possible to fit up to three children on the seat board or two toddlers in the seats with room for shopping bags. Accessories such as rain covers are also available. Convertible double running stroller strollers tend to be larger and heavier than single pushchairs because they have to hold two or more children. The Graco Modes Nest2Grow is one example of an affordable convertible which is very user-friendly, however our testers felt that it was a bit heavy for its price.

Some convertible double strollers, such as the Baby Jogger City Select 2 has a carrycot option that is suitable for infants. This allows the double stroller to be compacted and reduce in size when it is not used. The City Select's clever single-handed folding impressed our test participants, but it takes some time to master. It's also extremely responsive and nimble even despite its size.

The Cybex Mockingbird single-to-double stroller is an alternative that is affordable. The seat converts from a parent-facing infant car seat to a forward-facing toddler seat, and the bassinet mode is a great choice for infants (although remember that babies under four months old shouldn't be able to sleep in strollers due to the danger of asphyxia from position).

For more flexibility, look for a convertible that has dual modes such as the iCandy Peach. This is a narrow double running stroller buggy which can accommodate two children in a row however it can also be used as a tandem with the addition of a second-seat kit and rider board. It feels agile and responsive, and our testers liked its sleek design. It's not quite as lightweight like some of the other models on our list, however it does come with a huge basket that is useful for parents who have to carry bags of toys and food items.

lightweight double buggy

Some parents want to ensure the future of their double buggy when they have one child and are expecting another and a convertible model is a good option. The iCandy Peach allows you to change from a single pushchair to a double pushchair by the addition of either an infant seat or the brand's optional carrycot (which is suitable for sleep overs). The seats are very comfortable and our test subjects love the fact that they can recline in various positions. They also appreciate the feature that the canopy comes with an open window that can be seen from afar and has UPF 50+ protection. The rear seat can also be raised to provide a standing platform for the older child to climb off and on, to allow them to reach things in the basket of groceries.

The only drawback of the iCandy Peach is that it is quite heavy. However, Cher felt it was overcome by its ease to maneuver and how large the storage space is, with two hanging parent and child cup holders as well as seat-back pockets, and a large underseat storage basket. She also appreciated the seat's design, which is adjustable, meaning they can be set to face each other for siblings who wish to chat and interact together while out sit and stand double stroller (sites) about.

A lighter and equally impressive choice is the Delta Children LX side-by-side stroller that weighs only 18 lbs. It is compact and has an auto-standing fold that makes it easy to transport and put in your trunk or at home. Parents are impressed by the quality of materials and workmanship, and the low cost. The only negatives are that the seats do not recline as much as other models we've tested and the rear seat is not as well-lit due to its location as it is higher than the front seat.

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. While they're smaller, side-by-side prams can still be larger than tandems and inline doubles. This can make them difficult to maneuver on busy streets and in shops. They're also shorter which makes them easier to maneuver in tight spaces.
