Choosing a Double Pram and Pushchair

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

Some parents who are new to the world choose a future-proof pushchair which can be used both as a single stroller once baby is born, and transformed into a best twin buggy-mode after the baby arrives. Joolz offers a variety of these options.

Tandem

The news that you're expecting the birth of a child is one of the most exciting times in life. But, once the excitement fades and reality sinks in, you may be faced with a variety of decisions regarding how to prepare your family for the arrival of your new one or one. One of the most important things to consider is choosing the right pram or pushchair.

Tandem prams (also called "in-line" double prams) are a classic design with two bassinets or seats for prams arranged side-by-side. The front seat, which is typically padded, reclines flat and is suitable for infants. The second seat is a bit higher and designed to accommodate toddlers as young as three years old. Some models come with the option of reversible seating, which lets you choose whether your children face one another or look at you. Many tandems can be converted to a single pushchair when your oldest child is no longer required to have the second seat.

A tandem is cheaper than twin prams and can be a great option for parents looking to save money without having to sacrifice safety or functional. A tandem can be heavy and difficult to steer, particularly when you're tripping over the kerbs. It is also less stable than twin prams, 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, a popular model with a focus on image, is a fantastic option for parents who are single and want a sleeker design. However the tandem mode makes it feel a bit heavy and long to push. It has an innovative frame that can be expanded to allow for the addition of the second seat, and can be used with multiple combinations of carrycots, buggy chairs and car seats (two at a time or separately). The iCandy Wave is another lightweight tandem option that's easy to use and compatible with a variety of car seats and carrycots.

Side by side

There are a lot of things to take into consideration when selecting a double pram or pushchair. If you're buying for twins or siblings close in age, there are a number of configuration options to consider. Tandem prams, also referred to as side-by-side prams, are a popular choices due to the fact that they can be set up in a way that the infant can sit in the bassinet in the middle while the toddler or older child is sitting in the second seat.

Some models even have convertible seats, which means you can adapt the configuration to meet the needs of your family throughout the baby and toddler years. This allows you to keep your little ones always in your sights and also gives them a chance to get to know each other while they walk.

Tandem prams are jogging buggies as well as all-terrain buggies. They are ideal for outdoor excursions, like to the park. They're also a good option when you have to traverse narrow aisles in the supermarket or at checkouts because they tend to be smaller than single and double stroller-seaters.

The Redsbaby JIVE3 Pram, for example, can be used as a tandem pram from birth in the dual mode by adding the use of the rumble seat (PS249). It is then possible to change to a single and double stroller pram mode once your child is old enough to leave the rumble seat or choose the car capsule adaptors (PS53) to turn it into a travel system from infant 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 with a contemporary design. It is designed to be used from the moment of birth, you can include the LUNA newborn Cocoon (PS262) and the LUNA Infant Seats (PS53 each).

If you're looking for a sleek and elegant pushchair that can convert into a side-by-side double, the Egg 2 from Chicco is an excellent choice. It comes in a range of carrycots and infant seats to accommodate twins or siblings of different age ranges. It's also incredibly easy to collapse. It's also light, making it a good option for those with smaller vehicles or have limited space for storage.

Convertible

Some of the top double prams or pushchairs can be set up to meet your changing needs. You can accommodate up to three children on the seat board, or two toddlers in the seats and still have enough space to carry shopping bags. Accessories like rain covers are also available. Convertible double strollers are generally heavier and bulkier than single pushchairs because they need to hold two or more children. The Graco Modes Nest2Grow convertible is an example of an inexpensive convertible that is very easy to use. However, our testers considered it to be somewhat heavy for its price.

Some double strollers that can be converted into convertibles like the Baby Jogger City Select 2 come with a carrycot suitable for infants. This allows the double stroller to be compacted and reduce in size when not used. The City Select's clever folding system that is one-handed impressed our testers, but it takes some time to master. It's also very nimble and agile, despite being larger than other double strollers.

The Cybex Mockingbird single-to-double stroller is another affordable option. It can be converted from a parent facing infant car seat to a forward-facing toddler seat. The bassinet feature is a great choice for infants.

For greater flexibility, opt for a dual-mode convertible such as the iCandy Peach. It's a slim double stroller that can hold two children in a tandem. It can also be used to make a tandem by adding a second seat kit. It is agile and responsive, and our test users liked its sleek design. It's not as light like some of the other models on our list, but it has a large basket that is useful for parents who have to carry bags of toys and food items.

Lightweight

Convertible double strollers are a great option for parents who have a child and expect the arrival of a second. The iCandy Peach allows you to change from a single pushchair to a double pushchair with the addition of either an infant seat or the brand's optional carrycot (which is suitable for sleeping at night). Our test subjects were impressed by how comfortable the seats are and love the fact that they both recline to different positions, feature built-in foot and leg supports and generous UPF 50+ canopy that has peekaboo windows. The rear seat can be elevated to provide a a standing platform for the older child to climb off and on, so they can reach things in the shopping basket.

The only issue with the iCandy Peach is that it is quite heavy. However, Cher found that this was overcome by the ease to manoeuvre and how spacious the storage is equipped with two hanging parent and child cup holders, seat-back pockets and an enormous underseat basket. She also liked the seat's design, which is adjustable, meaning they can be positioned to face one another for siblings who want to talk and interact while out and out and about.

The Delta Children LX Side-by-Side stroller double is a less heavy option and still impressive. It weighs only 18 pounds, is lightweight, and has a self standing fold, making it easy to carry around or put in your trunk. Parents are impressed by the quality of the materials and workmanship as well as the affordable price. The only negatives are that the seats do not recline as much as other models we've tested and the rear seat isn't as visible due to its location as it is higher than the first seat.

Another popular option is the Joolz Geo 3, which is slim, sleek and easy to steer, and comes with an attractive design and a lifetime guarantee. Although they are smaller, side-by-side prams can still be wider than tandems and inline doubles. This makes them difficult to maneuver around busy footpaths and in shops. However, they're generally shorter, which means they can be easier to turn in tight spaces than tandems.
