Choosing a Double Pram and Pushchair

A double pram or pushchair can simplify family life, especially on busy footpaths or in shops and stores. Find a model that has ample storage space for nappies, snacks, and other essentials.

Some parents who are first-time parents choose an infant pushchair that can be used as a single stroller when baby is born, and later transformed into a twin-mode after the baby is old enough. Joolz offers a variety of these options.

After the excitement wears off and the reality of the situation kicks in, you will have to make a number of decisions regarding how to prepare your family. One of the most important things to consider is choosing the right pram or pushchair.

Tandem prams, also known as "in-line" double prams, are a classic design that has two bassinets or seats placed side by side. The front seat is typically covered in padding 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. of age. Some models let you choose whether your children look at each other or face each other. Many tandems also have the option of converting into a single pushchair when you decide your oldest child no longer needs the second seat.

In terms of price the tandem is cheaper than a twin pushchair and is a great option for parents looking to save money but not compromising on safety or convenience. However, a drawback of a tandem is that it can be a bit heavy and lengthy to steer, particularly when going up or down kerbs. It is often less stable than a twin pram especially if the child who is older is sitting in the front. A tandem can also be tricky to get onto public transport and can be difficult to navigate on narrow roads.

The iCandy Peach, a popular model with a focus on image, is a fantastic option for parents with one child who want an elegant appearance. However the tandem mode can make it feel long and heavy to push. It's got a frame that expands in dimensions to accommodate the second seat. It can be used with a variety of buggy seats, car seats and carrycots (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 or carrycots.

Side by side

When it comes to choosing a double pram or pushchair there's plenty to consider. Whether you're buying for twins or siblings who are close in age there are a variety of configuration options to take into account. Tandem prams (also known as side by side prams) are a popular choice because they can be set up to accommodate infants with a bassinet at the top, while the larger toddler or infant sits in the seat below.

Some models even feature seats that can be reversible, meaning you can alter the seating arrangement to meet the needs of your family throughout the toddler and baby years. This allows you to see your children at all times, and gives them the chance to be a part of the journey as they walk.

Tandem prams can be jogging buggies or all-terrain buggies. They are great for outdoor excursions, like to the park. They're also a good option for those who have to navigate narrow aisles in the supermarket or at checkouts as they're generally smaller than single to double stroller-seaters.

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

The Side by Side Pram from Babybee is another option. The side-by-side double pram is available in a range of colors and features a beautiful modern style. Designed to be used right from birth, you can include the LUNA Cocoon for newborns (PS262) and the LUNA Infant Seats (PS53 each).

If you're seeking a sleek, elegant pushchair that can convert into a side-by-side double and a side-by-side double, the Egg 2 from Chicco is an excellent choice. It's available in a range of carrycot and infant seat configurations to accommodate twins or siblings of varying ages and is super-easy to fold. It's also quite light making it an ideal choice for families with small cars or limited storage space.

Convertible

The best double prams and pushchairs are able to be used in multiple ways and some are capable of changing seating configurations to meet your changing family needs. It is possible to fit two toddlers in the seats or even a third one 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 a plus. In general, convertible double strollers are bigger and heavier than single Pushchairs And Prams as they have to be capable of holding two or more children. The Graco Modes Nest2Grow is one example of a convertible that is affordable that is extremely easy to use, although our testers thought it was a bit heavy for the price.

Some convertible double strollers, such as the Baby Jogger City Select 2 has a carrycot option which is suitable for newborns. This allows the double stroller to be folded down and reduced in size when it is not used. Our test participants were awestruck by the City Select's unique one-handed fold. However, it does take some practice. It also feels quite nimble and responsive, despite it being bigger than other double strollers.

Another option that is reasonably priced is an option that is affordable is the Cybex Mockingbird Single-to-Double Stroller. It can be converted from a parent-facing infant car seat to an forward-facing toddler seat. The bassinet mode is a great option for infants.

For greater flexibility, opt for a convertible with dual modes like the iCandy Peach. It's a compact double stroller that can hold two children at the same time. It can also be used to make a tandem by incorporating a second seat kit. It is agile and agile, and our testers loved its sleek design. It's not as light as the other pushchairs in our list however it does come with an ample shopping basket that is great for parents who carry bags full of groceries and toys.

Lightweight

Some parents like to future-proof their double buggy if they have one child and are expecting another so a convertible option is a good option. The iCandy Peach can be converted from a single pushchair to double by the addition of a toddler's seat, or the brand's carrycot (which is ideal to sleep at night). The seats are extremely comfortable and our test subjects love that they can be reclined in a variety of positions. They also appreciate the design of the canopy, which has 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 get on and off, so that they can access items in the shopping basket.

The only drawback of the iCandy Peach is that it is quite heavy, but Cher felt it was offset by the ease to manoeuvre and how spacious the storage is with two hanging child and parent cup holders as well as seat-back pockets, and an enormous underseat basket. Cher also appreciated that seats can be flipped so that they be positioned to face each other, which is great for siblings who like to interact and talk when out and out and about.

A lighter-weight but just as impressive option is the Delta Children LX side-by-side stroller that weighs just 18 lbs, is super compact and has an auto-standing fold that makes it easy to carry and store in your trunk or at home. Parents are impressed by the quality of materials and workmanship, and the cost. The only drawbacks are that the seats do not recline as well as other models we have tested and the rear seat is not as visible due to its location and height. It is higher than the first 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. Although they are smaller than side-by-side strollers, they can be more spacious than tandems and inline doubles. This can make them difficult to maneuver around busy footpaths and in shops. However, they're usually shorter, which means they can be more maneuverable in tight spaces than tandems.
