Choosing a Double pushchair with car seat

A double pushchair offers parents the option of taking their children side-by-side or together. This is ideal for twins or siblings who are similar in age.

Consider your family's budget and requirements when you are looking for a double stroller. Double buggies range from light to all-terrain models with a multitude of designs and configurations.

Size

A double pushchair is a significant purchase and the size of your family will play an important factor in the selection process. There are many options that are lightweight and compact available for those with limited space.

We recommend you take measurements of the doorways and aisles in your home and any public spaces in which you are likely to use the pushchair. You can buy a cardboard cutout of your new pram to see how it fits in these spaces before you make the final decision.

You must also think about the location you intend to store the pushchair, as it may not be convenient to store it in the car's boot for extended periods. If you intend to travel using public transport, it's essential that the double stroller folds into a compact size. It must also be easy to get on and off buses, trains and trolleys.

The majority of double strollers and pushchairs are designed to accommodate two children side-by-side. (The Bugaboo Donkey 5 and Mountain Buggy Duet are exceptions). Certain models let you reverse both seats to face you. The Babyzen YOYO+ Twin is a popular option for families with twins or close relatives.

Many of the top-rated double pushchairs work with different infant car seat and toddler seats. For example the Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double is compatible with two car seats and features reversible seating so that a child can sit down with their sibling or look out to discover the world around them.

The stylish and practical side-by-side double pushchairs, such as the Bugaboo Donkey 5 Duo offer an elegant design and are suitable for babies from birth to toddlers. They can be used with two soft carrycots, and come in a variety of configurations, including the option to connect a single infant carrier. This makes them a great choice for families with twins or infants who are very close.

Style

It is important to consider how your children will be able to fit in a double stroller. This will be influenced by their height, age and needs however, you'll also have to consider the style of the pushchair as well as its ease of use. It's worth reading the user reviews to get a sense of the opinions of people about the products they've bought.

There are a few main types of double pushchairs to choose from. The majority of side-by-side strollers feature the children facing the world (although some models, like the Bugaboo Donkey or Mountain Buggy Duet, allow the user to switch this). Tandem pushchairs are more upright and feature one child in the back and another in front. They're not as compact, and aren't as easy to maneuver in narrow streets, but they are a good option for older toddlers who can sit up and enjoy the world.

The Cybex Aton 2 double pushchair is a great choice for families in search of an affordable, lightweight and a versatile double stroller. It places kids in front of each other, so they can sit and talk or play together, and there's room for two car seats too should you require them.

The seat and carrycot have five-point harnesses, as well as adjustable leg and feet rests. The UPF 50+ canopy is able to offer real shade and also has a peekaboo view so that children can take in the view as they move. The frame isn't designed for rough terrain, but it is able to handle urban streets and shopping aisles.

It's simple to fold and put together and also comes with an storage basket underneath the seats. It's a bit more expensive than other light double buggies, but it comes with many configurations to meet different requirements and is a great option for older toddlers. For older children who are more mobile, you can add running boards to give them more stability when they stand up. It can also be converted to a single stroller by replacing one of the seats with a side basket, if you don't want both kids to ride in it for any length of time.

Budget

If you're expecting a baby stroller or have two children, a double pushchair can be a great investment. Although they cost more than single strollers, you can buy an excellent quality model that will last for several years. Before you purchase, evaluate your family's priorities and needs, taking into consideration things like the age of your children, the terrain you intend to traverse, the lifestyle of your family and features that are of the most importance to you.

For instance, if your children are born at fairly close intervals then you may want to consider a side-by-side style that can let the child with the smallest sit with their older sibling to bond and provide comfort. On the other side, if you live in an urban setting and are planning to travel by public transportation a lot and you're looking for an ultra-light and compact double buggy that is easy to fold and can fit into lifts and narrow doorways.

A tandem pushchair is great for twins or babies born closer together, as it allows your older child to sit behind the younger one. Some models also provide the option to face each other or world facing so your children can explore their surroundings independently of each other. Tandems can be difficult to maneuver and are hard to get over kerbs however they work better in narrow doors and aisles for shopping.

Some models are designed to provide flexibility and can be changed back to a single stroller if you don't need the second seat. Both the UPPAbaby v2 Double and Joovy Graphite Caboose Ultralight are examples.

Another thing to consider is the amount of storage space you need. Some double pushchairs come with large baskets under the carriage, while others only have a few pockets for storage or none at all. If you plan to use your double pushchair frequently for shopping, long distance walking or travelling, you may want to choose one that has a spacious storage area.

Safety along with convenience and ease of cleaning are also essential. It is recommended to look for the pushchair that has puncture-proof wheels and machine-washable material that is easy to wipe down. Make sure that the buckles can be unfastened and fastened easily particularly by children.

Test-driving

There are lots of things to consider when selecting a double buggy, including the weight, size of folded wheel type, and folding mechanism. Be sure to select the brand that has a good reputation, since this will increase the price of resales when you are ready to move.

When folded side-by-side models are smaller and can be more easily moving over and under kerbs. They may not be able to fit into every doorway and larger families might have difficulty using them.

The Cybex Xeon 3 is a stylish and lightweight option that handles equally well with two children in the seat as it does with just one. It also has the option of using the seat in single mode, with an additional shopping basket, a great solution for parents with a limited storage space. Our home tester Sophie found it easy to steer even with two kids in the seats. She also loved the fact that you can fold it up with the seat removed, which makes it much more compact.
