Choosing a Double Pram and Pushchair

A double pram or pushchair will simplify life for families, particularly when walking on busy roads or in the shops and stores. Select a model that offers ample storage space to store nappies as well as snacks and other essentials.

Some first-time parents choose a pushchair that is future-proof and can be used as a single stroller at the time baby is born, and changed to a twin mode when the baby is born. Joolz offers a range of these options.

Tandem

The announcement that you are expecting a baby is among life's most exciting experiences. However, after the excitement of the beginning fades and reality sinks in, you could be faced with a multitude of decisions about how to prepare your family for the arrival of your baby one or ones. The proper stroller or pram is one of the most crucial considerations.

Tandem prams (also called "in-line" double prams) are a classic design that feature two bassinets or seats for prams arranged side by side. The front seat is usually padded and reclines to a flat angle, making it suitable for newborns while the second one is more upright and can accommodate toddlers from around three years older. Some models allow you to choose whether your children look at each other or face each other. Many tandems have the option of being converted into a single pushchair when you decide your oldest child no longer needs the second seat.

A tandem is more affordable than twin prams and can be an excellent choice for parents looking to save money, but without compromising safety or functionality. However, a drawback of a tandem is that it can feel long and heavy to steer, particularly when bumping up or down kerbs, and it is usually less stable than a twin pushchair, particularly if the older child is sitting in the front. A tandem double buggy can be difficult to place on public transport, and it can be difficult to navigate narrow roads.

The iCandy Peach, a popular model that is focused on image, is a great alternative for parents with one child who want an elegant appearance. However, the tandem mode makes it feel long and heavy to push. It comes with a clever frame that expands widthways to allow the addition of the second seat, and is compatible with many combinations of carrycots, buggy seats and car seats (two at a time or in separate). The iCandy Wave tandem is another lightweight option that is easy to use and compatible with a variety of carrycots or car seats.

Side by side

When it comes time to choose a double pushchair or pram, there's a lot to think about. There are numerous configuration options available, whether you're buying for twins or close-in-age siblings. Tandem prams (also known as side by side prams) are a popular choice because they can be arranged to accommodate infants with a bassinet on the top, while the older infant or toddler sits in the lower seat below.

Certain models come with reversible seats that let you customize the seating arrangement for your family throughout the toddler and baby years. This lets you be able to watch your children at all times and gives them the chance to interact as they walk.

Tandem prams are typically jogging or all-terrain buggies which makes them ideal for outdoor adventures and the park. They're also a good choice when you have to traverse narrow aisles in the supermarket or at checkouts as they are generally smaller than single-seaters.

The Redsbaby JIVE3 Pram, for example, can be used as a tandem pram from birth in dual mode, with the addition of the rumble seat (PS249). You can then change to a single pram mode when your little one grows out of the rumble seat, or use the car capsule adaptors (PS53) to turn it into a travel system from newborn to toddler.

Another alternative is the Side by Side Pram from Babybee. The double side-by-side pram is available in a variety of colours and is designed in a contemporary style. Designed to be used right from birth, you can also add the LUNA newborn Cocoon (PS262) and the LUNA Infant Seats (PS53 each).

If you're looking for a sleek, stylish pushchair that converts into a side-by-side double stroller sale and a side-by-side double, the Egg 2 from Chicco is an excellent choice. It is available in a variety of carrycots and infant seats to accommodate twins or siblings of different age ranges. It is also super-easy to fold. It's also fairly lightweight, making it a good option for those with little space in their cars or don't have enough space to store.

Convertible

The top double prams and pushchairs are versatile and some are able to change into different seating arrangements to meet your changing family needs. You can fit up to three children on the seat board, or two toddlers in the seats, while still having room for a shopping bag. Accessories like rain covers are also available. Convertible double strollers tend to be heavier and larger than single pushchairs due to the fact that they need ready to grow double stroller hold two or more children. The Graco Modes Nest2Grow is one example of a convertible that is affordable that is extremely user-friendly, but our test subjects felt it was a bit 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 allows the double stroller to be folded down and reduced in size when not being used. Our testers were impressed with the City Select's unique one-handed fold. However, it takes some practice. It's also very agile and responsive even despite its size.

The Cybex Mockingbird single-to-double stroller is another option that is reasonably priced. The seat converts from a parent-facing infant car seat to a forward-facing toddler car seat, and the bassinet mode is a great option for infants (although remember that babies under 4 months old should not sleep in strollers because of the danger of asphyxia from position).

To be more flexible, opt for a convertible with dual modes such as the iCandy Peach. It's a small double buggy that can fit two children in a row and can be used as a tandem with the addition of a second seat kit and rider board. It's nimble and responsive, and our testers liked its sleek design. It's not as light like some of the other models we've reviewed, but it has a large basket that's ideal for parents carrying bags of toys and food items.

Lightweight

Some parents want to ensure the future of their double pushchair 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 double into double with the addition of a toddler seat or the brand's carrycot (which is great for overnight sleeping). The seats are very comfortable and our testers appreciate that they can be reclined in various positions. They also like the design of the canopy, which has a peekaboo window and UPF 50+ protection. The rear seat can be raised high so that the child who is older can sit n stand double stroller (go to these guys) on it to reach the shopping basket.

Cher said that the one negative aspect of the iCandy Peach was its weight. However, she felt that this was compensated for because it's easy to move and has plenty of storage, including two cup holders for children and parents, seat-back pockets, and an enormous basket underneath the seat. Cher also appreciated the seat's design, which is reversible, so they can be set to face each other for siblings who wish to talk and get together when out and about.

The Delta Children LX Side-by-Side Stroller is a smaller model, but still impressive. It weighs just 18 pounds, is compact, and has a self standing fold, making it simple to carry around or put in your trunk. Parents appreciate the quality of the materials and workmanship and the price is low. The only downside is that the seats don't recline as much as some other models we've tried and the rear seat isn't as well-lit because of its position that is higher than the front seat.

Another popular choice is the Joolz Geo 3, which is slim, sleek and easy to steer, and comes with an appealing design and a lifetime guarantee. It's worth bearing in mind that despite their narrower design Side by side prams are more spacious than tandem and in-line doubles and can be difficult to navigate through crowded footpaths or in shops. They're also shorter, making them easier to maneuver in tight spaces.
