Choosing a Double Pram and Pushchair

A well-designed double pram or pushchair will simplify family life, especially on busy footpaths or in stores and shops. Choose a model with ample storage space to store nappies, snacks, and other essentials.

Some parents who are first-time parents opt for a pushchair that is future-proof and can be used both as a single stroller when baby is born, and then converted to a twin mode after he or she arrives. Joolz offers a wide range of choices.

Tandem

The news that you're about to have to have a baby is among the most exciting moments in your life. However, once the initial excitement wears off and the reality sets into your life, you'll be faced with a myriad of decisions about how to prepare your family for the arrival of your little one or one. One of the most important considerations is choosing the right pram or pushchair.

Tandem prams, also referred to as "in-line" double buggy from birth prams, are a classic design with two bassinets or chairs placed side by side. The front seat is typically padded and reclines to a flat position making it suitable for babies, while the second seat is more upright and can be used by toddlers as young as three years old. older. Certain models feature reversible seating so you can decide if your children face towards each other or gaze at you. Many tandems have the option to convert into a single pushchair if you decide that your child's oldest no longer needs the second seat.

A tandem is more affordable than a twin pram and is an ideal choice for parents looking to save money without compromising safety or functionality. A tandem can be heavy and difficult to steer, especially when bumping over kerbs. It is also less stable than twin pushchairs, especially if an older child is in the front. A tandem can be difficult to place on public transport, and it can be difficult to navigate narrow roads.

The iCandy Peach is a popular model with a strong image that's a great option for a single parent who wants something streamlined, but the tandem mode can make it feel quite heavy and long when pushing. It comes with an expanded frame that increases in size to accommodate a second seat. It can be used with a range of combinations of car seats, buggy seats and carrycots (two at one time or in separate). The iCandy Wave tandem is another lightweight twin buggy option that is easy to use and compatible with a range of carrycots or car seats.

Side by side

When it comes time to choose a double pushchair or pram there's plenty to consider. There are numerous 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 a popular choice since they can be set up to fit infants in a bassinet on top, while the older toddler or infant is in the seat below.

Some models come with seats that can be reversible, meaning you can adapt the configuration to your family's requirements throughout the toddler and baby years. This lets you keep your kids in sight at all times and gives them a chance to get to know one another as they walk.

Tandem prams are often jogging or all-terrain buggies which makes them ideal for outdoor adventures and in the park. They're also a good option if you need to brave narrow supermarket isles or checkouts as they are generally smaller than single-seaters.

The Redsbaby JIVE3 pram for example can be used in tandem mode from birth with the addition of an rumble seat. (PS249) It is then possible to change to a single pram mode when your little one grows out of the rumble seat or choose the adaptors for car capsules (PS53) to turn it into a travel system from newborn to toddler.

Another alternative is the Side by Side Pram from Babybee. This side-by-side double pram is available in a variety of colors and features an elegant modern design. It is designed to be used from birth, you can also add the LUNA newborn cocoon (PS262) or the LUNA infant seats (PS53 each) to ensure your little ones are secure and comfortable.

The Egg 2 is a stylish sleek pushchair that can be converted into a double side-byside. It's available in a variety of infant and carrycot combinations to cater for twins or siblings of varying age groups and is easy to fold. It's also fairly lightweight twin buggy and therefore a good choice for those who have little space in their cars or don't have enough space for storage.

Convertible

Some of the top double prams or pushchairs can be set up to accommodate your changing needs. You can fit two toddlers in seats or a third rider on the seat board, and still have room for a basket to store your shopping, and the ability to add additional accessories such as rain covers is also a plus. Typically, convertible double strollers are bigger and heavier than single pushchairs due to the fact that they must be capable of holding 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 test participants thought it was quite heavy for the money.

Some convertible double strollers like the Baby Jogger City Select 2 include a carrycot suitable for infants. This reduces 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 unique one-handed fold. However, it requires a bit of practice. It's also very agile and responsive, despite its size.

Another option that is affordable is the Cybex Mockingbird Single-to-Double Stroller. The seat converts from a car seat with a parent seat to a forward-facing toddler car seat and the bassinet option is a great option for infants (although keep in mind that infants under four months old shouldn't be able to sleep in strollers double due to the risk of asphyxia in a position).

If you're looking for more flexibility look into a convertible with dual modes like the iCandy Peach. It's a slim double stroller that is able to accommodate two children at the same time. It can also be used to create a tandem by adding a second seating kit. It is responsive and nimble, and our testers liked its sleek design. It's not as light as some of the other models we've reviewed, but it has a large basket that's great for parents who have to carry bags full of toys and food items.

lightweight twin stroller

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 convert from a single to a double pushchair, with the addition of an infant seat or the brand's carrycot (which is suitable for sleep overs). Our testers noted how comfortable the seats are and love the fact that both recline to different positions, feature built-in foot and leg supports and large UPF 50+ canopy that has peekaboo windows. The rear seat can be elevated to provide a a standing platform for a child to climb on and off, to allow them to access items in the shopping basket.

Cher said that the only downside of the iCandy Peach was its weight. But she felt that this was compensated for because it's easy to move and comes with plenty of storage space with two cup holders for parents and children, seat-back pockets, and a large basket underneath the seat. Cher also appreciated the fact that the seats are reversible, so they can be positioned to face each other for siblings who wish to talk and get together while out and out and about.

The Delta Children LX Side-by-Side Stroller is a lighter option however, it is still awe-inspiring. It weighs only 18 pounds, is compact and features an auto-standing fold, making it simple to carry around or put in your trunk. Parents appreciate the quality of the materials and craftsmanship as well as the price is low. The only downside is that the seats don't recline as much as other models we've examined and the back seat isn't very well-lit due to its position that is higher than the front seats.

The Joolz Geo 3 is another popular option. It is slim, sleek and easy to steer and comes with a lifetime guarantee. It's worth bearing in mind that, despite their smaller size side by side prams are still wider than tandem and in-line doubles. They may be tricky to navigate on busy footpaths or in stores. However, they are often shorter, which means they are easier to maneuver in tight spaces than tandems.
