Choosing a double pram and pushchair (read the full info here)

A double buggy sale pram can simplify life for families, particularly in busy shops or on busy streets. Choose a model with ample storage space for nappies, snacks and other essentials.

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

Tandem

The news that you're about to have a baby is one of the most exciting times in your life. However, after the excitement fades and reality sinks into your life, you'll be faced with a myriad of decisions about how to prepare your family for the arrival of your new one or one. One of the most important considerations is choosing the best pram or pushchair.

Tandem prams, also referred as "in-line" double prams, are a classic style with two bassinets or seats placed 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 3 years. Certain models let you select whether your children stare at each other or look outwards. Many tandems also have the option of being converted into a single pushchair in the event that you decide that your oldest child doesn't require the second seat.

A tandem is cheaper than a twin pram and can be an ideal choice for parents who wish to save money without compromising safety or functionality. A tandem can be heavy and difficult to steer, particularly when bumping over curbs. It is also less stable than twin prams particularly if a larger child is in the front. A tandem can also be tricky to fit onto public transport, and it can be difficult to navigate on narrow roads.

The iCandy Peach, a popular model that is focused on image, is a fantastic option for parents who are single and want an attractive style. However, the tandem mode makes it feel heavy and long to push. It has an innovative frame that expands widthways to allow for the addition of the second seat, and it is compatible with many combinations of carrycots, buggy seats and car seats (two at a time or separately). The iCandy Wave tandem is another lightweight option that is easy to use and compatible with a range of car seats and carrycots.

Side by side

When it comes to choosing a double pushchair or pram, there's a lot to think about. There are a variety of configuration options to choose from, regardless of whether you're buying for twins or close-in-age siblings. Tandem prams, referred to as side-by-side prams, are a popular choices because they can be set up so that the infant can be seated in the bassinet in the middle while the toddler or older child is sitting in the second chair.

Some models even feature reversible 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 allows them to be a part of the journey as they walk.

Tandem prams can be jogging buggies, or all-terrain buggies. They are ideal for trips outdoors, such as to the park. They're also a good option for those who have to navigate narrow aisles in the supermarket or at checkouts as they are generally more compact than single-seaters.

The Redsbaby JIVE3 pram, for example can be used in tandem mode right from birth, with the addition of the rumble seat. (PS249) It is then possible to switch to the single pram mode when your little one grows out of the rumble seat or choose the car capsule adaptors (PS53) to transform it into a travel system for newborn to toddler.

The Side by Side Pram by Babybee is a different alternative. This double pram side-by-side is available in a variety of colors and features an attractive modern style. It is 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 children are safe and comfy.

The Egg 2 is a stylish sleek pushchair that can be converted into a double side by side. It comes in a range of infant and carrycots to accommodate twins or siblings of different ages. It's also incredibly easy to fold. It is also relatively lightweight and therefore a good option for those with small cars or limited space for storage.

Convertible

The top double prams and pushchairs are able to be used in multiple ways and some are able to change into different seat configurations to suit your changing family needs. You can fit two toddlers in seats or even a third one on the seat board and have room for a basket to store your shopping, and the option to add additional accessories such as rain covers is also a benefit. Typically, convertible double buggy sale strollers are more spacious and heavier than single pushchairs as they must be able to accommodate two or more children. The Graco Modes Nest2Grow is one example of a convertible that is affordable that is user-friendly, but our test subjects felt it was a little heavy for the money.

Some convertible double strollers, like the Baby Jogger City Select 2 comes with a carrycot which is suitable for newborns. This reduces the size of the cheap double pushchair stroller when not in use and makes it smaller. Our test participants were awestruck by the City Select's clever one-handed fold, though it does take a bit of practice. It's also very agile and responsive in spite of its size.

Another affordable option is an affordable option is the Cybex Mockingbird Single-to-double buggy travel system Stroller. The seat can be transformed from a parent facing infant car seat to an forward-facing toddler seat. The bassinet feature makes it a great option for infants.

If you want more flexibility look into a convertible with dual modes like the iCandy Peach. This is a narrow double stroller that is able to accommodate two children at the same time. It can also be used to make a tandem by incorporating a second seat kit. It feels agile and responsive, and our test users loved its sleek design. It's not as lightweight as some of the other models on our list but it comes with a big basket that's ideal for parents who are carrying bags of toys and groceries.

Lightweight

Some parents like to future-proof their double buggy if they have a child and are expecting another and a convertible model is a great option. The iCandy Peach can be converted from a single pushchair to a double with the addition of a toddler seat or the brand's carrycot (which is ideal for overnight sleeping). The seats are extremely comfortable and our testers appreciate that they can recline in multiple positions. They also appreciate the feature that the canopy comes with a peekaboo window and UPF 50+ protection. The rear seat can also be lifted high to offer an elevated platform for the older child to get on and off, so that they can reach items in the basket of groceries.

Cher said that the only downside of the iCandy Peach was its weight. But she felt this was offset by the fact that it is easy to move and has plenty of storage, including two cup holders for children and parents seats-back pockets, as well as an enormous basket underneath the seat. Cher also loved that the seats can be reversed so that they can be positioned to face each other, which is ideal for siblings who want to talk and interact when they are out and about.

A lighter and equally impressive choice is the Delta Children LX side-by-side stroller that weighs only 18 lbs. It is 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 the materials and workmanship as well as the low price point. The only downsides are that the seats don't recline as much compared to other models we've tried and the rear seat isn't as visible due to its position - it is raised 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. While they're smaller side-by-side prams may be larger than tandems and inline doubles. This makes them difficult to maneuver on busy footpaths and in shops. They are also shorter, making them easier to maneuver in tight spaces.
