Choosing a Double Pram and Pushchair

A double pram can make life easier for families, particularly in bustling shopping centers or on busy streets. Pick a model with ample storage space for nappies snacks, nappies, and other essentials.

Some parents who are first-time parents choose an infant pushchair that can be used as a single pram when baby is born, and later changed into a twin mode once he or she is old enough. Joolz offers a variety of these options.

Tandem

The announcement that you're expecting a baby is one of the most exciting events in life. However, after the excitement of the beginning fades and the reality sets in, you may be faced with a variety of decisions regarding how to prepare your family for the arrival of your baby 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 have two bassinets or seats for prams arranged side-by-side. The front seat, which is typically cushioned, reclines and is suitable for babies. The second seat is a bit higher and designed to fit toddlers as young as 3 years. Some models have seats that can be reversible, so you can choose whether your children face one another or look at you. A lot of tandems offer the option to convert into a single pushchair when you decide that your child's oldest does not require the second seat.

In terms of price it is cheaper than a twin pushchair, and can be an excellent choice for parents who want to save money, but not compromise on safety or convenience. A tandem can be a bit heavy and difficult to steer, particularly when negotiating the kerbs. It's also less stable than twin pushchairs particularly if a larger child is riding in the front. A tandem can be difficult to fit onto public transport, and it can be difficult to navigate on narrow roads.

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

Side by side

There are many aspects to take into consideration when selecting a double pram or pushchair. There are a variety of configuration options to choose from, whether you're purchasing for twins or close-in-age siblings. Tandem prams, referred to as side-by-side prams are popular options because they can be set up in a way that the infant is able to sit in the bassinet in the middle while the older child or toddler is seated in the second seat.

Some models have reversible seating that allow you to customize the seating arrangement for your family throughout the infant and toddler years. This lets you keep your kids in sight at all times and also gives them a chance to interact with each other as they stroll.

Tandem prams are often jogging buggies or all-terrain ones that is why they're great for outdoor adventures and in the park. These are also good for narrow aisles or checkouts in supermarkets and shops as they are smaller.

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

The Side by Side Pram made by Babybee is a different option. The double side-by-side pram is available in a range of colors and is designed in a contemporary design. Designed 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 baby is secure and comfortable.

If you're looking for a sleek, stylish pushchair that converts into a side-by-side double then the Egg 2 from Chicco is a great option. It's available in a variety of carrycot and infant seat combinations to cater for twins or siblings of different ages and is super-easy to fold. It is also relatively light and compact, making it a great option for people with smaller vehicles or have limited space to store.

Convertible

Some of the top double prams or pushchairs are set up to accommodate your changing needs. There is the possibility of fitting two toddlers in a seat or a third child on the seat board and still have enough space for a shopping basket and the option to add accessories such as rain covers is another benefit. In general, convertible double strollers are more spacious and heavier than single pushchairs as they must be able to hold 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 found it to be quite heavy for the money.

Some double strollers that convert into convertibles, such as the Baby Jogger City Select 2 include a carrycot suitable for infants. This helps to reduce the size of the double stroller when it is not in use and makes it more compact. The City Select's clever folding system that is one-handed impressed our test participants however it requires some time to master. It's also very nimble and agile, despite being larger than double strollers.

The Cybex Mockingbird single-to-double stroller is another affordable option. It can be transformed from a child-facing car seat to a forward-facing toddler seat. The bassinet-style mode is a great option for infants.

For greater flexibility, opt for a convertible with dual modes like the iCandy Peach. This is a narrow double stroller that can accommodate two children side-by-side. It can also be used to create a tandem by incorporating a second seat kit. It feels fluid and responsive, and our test users were impressed by its sleek design. It's not as light as some of the other pushchairs on our list however, it comes with a large shopping basket which is handy for parents carrying bags of toys and food.

Lightweight

Convertible cheap double buggy strollers are a great option for parents who already have children and anticipate to have another. The iCandy Peach can be converted from a single pushchair Double Jogging Stroller for Infants with the addition of a toddler's seat or the brand's carrycot (which is great for sleeping at night). The seats are extremely comfortable and our testers appreciate that they can be reclined in a variety of positions. They also like the fact that the canopy has a peekaboo window and UPF 50+ protection. The rear seat can be raised so that the child who is older can stand on it to reach the shopping basket.

The only downside to the iCandy Peach is that it is quite heavy. However, Cher believed that this was balanced by how easy it is to move around and how big the storage space is equipped with two hanging child and parent cup holders with seat-back pockets as well as a large underseat storage basket. Cher also appreciated the fact that the seats are adjustable, meaning they can be positioned to face each other for siblings who want to chat and interact together while out and out and about.

A lighter, but equally impressive choice is the Delta Children LX side-by-side stroller, which weighs only 18 pounds, is extremely 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 the materials and workmanship as well as the affordable price. The only drawback is that the seats don't recline as much as some other models we've examined, and the rear seat doesn't have great visibility due to its position that is higher than the front seat.

The Joolz Geo 3 is another popular option. It is slim, sleek, easy to steer, and comes with an unbeatable lifetime warranty. Although they are narrower than side-by-side strollers, they can be wider than tandems and inline doubles. This can make them difficult to maneuver on busy footpaths and in shops. They are also shorter, making them more maneuverable in tight spaces.
