Choosing a Double Pram and Pushchair

A double pram can simplify life for families, particularly in bustling stores or on busy streets. Choose a model that has plenty of storage space to store nappies as well as snacks and other essentials.

Some parents who are new to the family opt for a future-proof pushchair that can be used as a single stroller when bub is born and then changed into a twin mode after the baby has arrived. Joolz offers a range of choices.

Tandem

The news that you're about to have a baby is one of the most exciting moments in life. Once the excitement has worn off and the reality of the situation kicks in, you'll have to make a number of options for how to prepare your family. One of the most important aspects to consider is choosing the best pram or pushchair.

Tandem prams, also referred as "in-line" double prams, are a classic style with two bassinets or chairs placed side by side. The front seat is typically padded and reclines to a flat angle, making it suitable for infants while the second one is more upright and is able to accommodate toddlers from around three years old. Some models come with seats that can be reversible, so you can decide if your children face towards each other or gaze at you. Many tandems can be converted into a single pushchair when your oldest child is no longer in need of the second seat.

In terms of cost it is cheaper than a twin pushchair and can be a great choice for parents who want to save money but not compromising on safety or convenience. However, the drawback of a tandem is that it can be heavy and long to steer, especially when you're moving up and down kerbs. Additionally, it is generally less stable than a twin pushchair, particularly if the older child is seated in the front. A tandem can be difficult to get onto public transport, and it can be difficult to maneuver on narrow roads.

The iCandy Peach, a popular model that is focused on image, is a great alternative for parents who are single and want an attractive style. However the tandem mode makes it feel a bit heavy and long to push. It has a frame that expands in dimensions to accommodate the second seat. It can be used with a variety of car seats, buggy seats and carrycots (two at a time or separately). The iCandy Wave tandem is another lightweight option that's easy-to-use and compatible with a range of car seats and carrycots.

Side by side

When it comes to choosing a double pram or pushchair, there's a lot to consider. Whether you're buying for twins or siblings close in age there are plenty of configuration choices to think about. Tandem prams (also called side by sides prams) are a popular choice because they can be set up to accommodate infants in a bassinet on the top, while the older toddler or infant is in the second seat below.

Some models even have convertible seats, which means you can alter the seating arrangement to meet the needs of 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 connect with them while they walk.

Tandem prams are jogging buggies as well as all-terrain buggies. They are great for outdoor excursions, such as to the park. These are also good for narrow aisles or checkouts in supermarkets and shops, as they are less bulky.

The Redsbaby JIVE3 Pram, for instance can be used as a tandem pram from birth in the dual mode with the addition of the rumble seat (PS249). When your child grows out of the rumble chair, you can change to a single pram mode. You may also opt to use the adaptors for car capsules to convert it from a newborn to toddler travel system.

The Side by Side Pram by Babybee is another option. 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 right from birth, you can also add the LUNA newborn cocoon (PS262) or the LUNA infant seats (PS53 each) to ensure that your baby is secure and comfortable.

The Egg 2 is a stylish sleek pushchair that can be transformed into a double side-byside. It's available in a variety of carrycots and infant seats to accommodate twins or siblings with different ages. It's also easy to fold. It's also fairly light and compact, making it a great choice for those who have small cars or limited space to store.

Convertible

The top double prams and pushchairs are able to be used in multiple ways, and some are even capable of changing seating configurations to meet your family's changing needs. There is the possibility of fitting two toddlers in the seats or even a third one on the seat board and have enough space for a shopping basket and the ability to add accessories like rain covers is a advantage. In general, convertible double strollers double strollers are bigger and heavier than single pushchairs as they are required to be able to accommodate 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 a bit heavy for the price.

Some double strollers that can be converted into convertibles like the Baby Jogger City Select 2 have a carrycot that is suitable for infants. This reduces the size of the double stroller when not in use, and makes it smaller. Our test participants were awestruck by the City Select's innovative one-handed fold. However, it requires some time to master. It's also very responsive and nimble even despite its size.

The Cybex Mockingbird single-to-double stroller is another option that is reasonably priced. The seat can be transformed from a child-facing car seat to a forward-facing toddler seat. The bassinet feature makes it a great option for infants.

For greater flexibility, opt for a convertible with dual modes such as the iCandy Peach. This is a narrow double buggy that can hold 2 children side by side, but it can also be used as a tandem by the addition of a second-seat kit and rider board. It is responsive and nimble and our testers loved its sleek design. It's not as light as the other models on our list, but it has a large basket that's ideal for parents who have to carry bags full of toys and food items.

Lightweight

Some parents like to future-proof their double buggy if they have a child and are expecting another so a convertible option is a good option. The iCandy Peach allows you to convert from a single to a double pushchairs pushchair with the addition of either a toddler seat or the brand's carrycot (which is suitable for sleep overs). Our testers noted the comfort of the seats and love the fact that both recline to different positions, come with built-in foot and leg supports and generous UPF 50+ canopy with windows that peek out. The rear seat can be raised so that the older child can stand on it to reach 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 maneuver and how large the storage is equipped with two hanging parent and child cup holders with seat-back pockets as well as a large underseat storage basket. Cher also appreciated that the seats can be reversed so that they face each other, which is perfect for siblings who like to chat and have conversations when they are out and about.

The Delta Children LX Side-by-Side Stroller is a less heavy option, but still impressive. It weighs only 18 pounds, is small and features an auto-standing fold, making it easy to transport or store in your trunk. Parents are impressed by the quality of the materials and workmanship and the price is low. The only drawback is that the seats don't recline as far as some other models we've tested, and the rear seat doesn't have great visibility due to its position as it's 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 attractive design and a lifetime guarantee. Although they are narrower side-by-side prams may be more spacious than tandems and inline doubles. This can make them difficult to maneuver around busy footpaths and in shops. They're also shorter which makes them more maneuverable in tight spaces.
