Choosing a Double Pram and Pushchair

A double pram can make life easier for families, especially in busy shops or on busy streets. Pick a model with ample storage space to store nappies, snacks, and other essentials.

Some first-time parents choose a future-proof pushchair which can be used both as a single stroller at the time baby is born, and converted to a twin mode after he or she arrives. Joolz has a variety of choices.

Tandem

The announcement that you're expecting to have a baby is among the most exciting moments in your life. After the excitement wears off and the reality of the situation kicks in, you will be faced with a variety of decisions regarding how to prepare your family for. One of the most important considerations is choosing the right pram or pushchair.

Tandem prams, also known as "in-line" double prams are a classic design with two seats or bassinets placed side by side. The front seat, which is typically cushioned, reclines and is suitable for infants. The second seat is upright and is designed to accommodate toddlers as young as three years. Some models have the option of reversible seating, which lets you choose whether your children face towards each other or gaze at you. A lot of tandems offer the option of converting into a single pushchair in the event that you decide that your oldest child doesn't require the second seat.

In terms of cost, a tandem is much cheaper than a twin pushchair, and can be a great choice for parents looking to save money, but not compromise on safety or convenience. A tandem can be a bit heavy and difficult to steer, particularly when you're tripping over curbs. It's also less stable than twin prams especially when a bigger child is seated in the front. A tandem can also be tricky to fit onto public transport, and it can be difficult to navigate on narrow pavements.

The iCandy Peach is a popular model with a strong image that's a great option for a single parent who wants something streamlined however, the tandem mode can make it feel heavy and long when pushing. It comes with an expanded frame that increases in size to accommodate a second seat. It can be used with a variety of combinations of car seats, buggy 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 and carrycots.

Side by side

There are a lot of things to think about when selecting a double pram or pushchair. There are many configuration options to choose from, whether you're buying for twins or close-in-age siblings. Tandem prams, referred to as side-by-side prams are popular options because they can be configured so that the infant can be seated in the bassinet on top while the older child or toddler is sitting in the second seat.

Some models even have reversible seats, which means you can alter the seating arrangement to suit your family's needs throughout the baby and toddler years. This allows you to keep your children always in your sight and gives them a an opportunity to interact with each other while they walk.

Tandem prams can be jogging buggies, or all-terrain buggies. They are perfect for outdoor excursions, like to the park. They're also a great option for those who have to navigate narrow supermarket isles or 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). It is then possible to switch to the single pram mode once your child gets used to the rumble seat or select the car capsule adaptors (PS53) to transform it into a travel system for infant to toddler.

The Side by Side Pram by Babybee is a different alternative. This double side-byside pram comes in a range of colors and is designed with a modern style. The design is intended to be used from birth, you can also add the LUNA newborn cocoon (PS262) or the LUNA infant seats (PS53 each) to ensure that your children are safe and comfy.

It comes in a range of carrycots and infant seats to accommodate twins or siblings with different ages. It is also super-easy to collapse. It's also quite light and therefore an ideal choice for families with small cars or limited storage space.

Convertible

You can accommodate up to three children on the seat board or two toddlers in the seats and still have room for shopping bags. Accessories like rain covers are also available. Most convertible double strollers are larger and heavier than single pushchairs due to the fact that they have to be capable of holding two or more children. The Graco Modes Nest2Grow convertible is an example of an affordable convertible that is simple to use. However, our test participants thought it was somewhat heavy for the money.

Some convertible double infant strollers strollers double strollers, such as the Baby Jogger City Select 2 comes with a carrycot that is suitable for infants. This allows the double stroller to be compacted and reduce in size when not being used. The City Select's clever single-handed folding impressed our testers, but it takes some time to master. It's also extremely fluid and agile even despite its size.

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

If you're looking for more flexibility, consider a dual-mode convertible like the iCandy Peach. It's a small double buggy double Stroller travel system buggy which can accommodate 2 children side by side and can be used as a tandem, with the addition of a second seat kit and rider board. It is responsive and nimble, and our testers liked its sleek design. It's not as lightweight as some of the other models we've reviewed, but it has a large basket that is useful for parents carrying bags filled with toys and food items.

lightweight twin buggy

Some parents like to future-proof their double buggy if they have one child and are expecting another and a convertible model is a great option. The iCandy Peach can be converted from a single pushchair a double with the addition of a toddler seat or the brand's carrycot (which is great for overnight sleeping). Our testers noted how comfortable the seats are and love the fact that they both recline to multiple positions, feature built-in leg and foot support and generous UPF 50+ canopy that has windows that peek out. The rear seat can be raised to provide a standing platform for the child to climb on and off, so they can reach things in the shopping basket.

The only downside to the iCandy Peach is that it is quite heavy, but Cher found that it was balanced by the ease to maneuver and how large the storage area is with two hanging parent and child cup holders as well as seat-back pockets, and a large underseat storage basket. Cher also loved that the seats can be turned so that they can face each other, which is perfect for siblings who want to talk and interact while out and out and about.

A lighter-weight but just as impressive option is the Delta Children LX side-by-side stroller that weighs only 18 pounds, is extremely compact and features a self-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 low cost. The only negatives are that the seats don't recline as well as other models we've tried and the rear seat is not as prominent because of its position - it is raised higher than the front 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 lifetime guarantee. Although they are smaller side-by-side prams may be more spacious than tandems and inline doubles. This makes them difficult to maneuver on busy streets and in shops. They are also shorter and therefore more maneuverable in tight spaces.
