Choosing a Double Pram and Pushchair

A double pram can simplify life for families, particularly in bustling shopping centers 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 first-time parents opt for a pushchair that is future-proof and can be used as a single stroller at the time baby is born, and then converted 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 one of life's most exciting experiences. Once the excitement has worn off and the reality of the situation sets in, you will be faced with a variety of options for how to prepare your family for. 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 chairs placed side-by-side. The front seat is usually cushioned and reclines to a flat position making it suitable for newborns, while the second seat is more upright and can accommodate toddlers from around three years of age. Some models let you choose whether your children look at each other or outwards. Many tandems can be converted to one pushchair once your oldest child is no longer required to have the second hand double buggy seat.

In terms of cost the tandem is cheaper than a twin buggy pushchair, and is a great option for parents looking to save money, but not compromise on safety or function. A tandem can be heavy and difficult to steer, especially when bumping over the kerbs. It is also less stable than twin strollers for newborns pushchairs especially when a bigger child is riding in the front. A tandem isn't always easy to fit on public transport, and it may be difficult to navigate narrow pavements.

The iCandy Peach, a popular model with a focus on image, is a great option for parents with one child who want an elegant style. However the tandem mode makes it feel a bit heavy and long to push. It comes with an expanded frame that increases in dimensions to accommodate the second seat. It can be used with a range of combinations of buggy seats, car 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 carrycots or car seats.

Side by side

When it comes to choosing a double pushchair or pram, there's a lot to consider. If you're buying for twins or siblings who are close in age there are plenty of configuration options to consider. Tandem prams, also known as side-by-side prams are popular choices because they can be set up so 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 have reversible seating that allow you to customize the layout of your family throughout the toddler and baby years. This lets you keep your children in sight at all times and also gives them a chance to interact with one another 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 are also great for narrow aisles or checkouts in supermarkets and shops because they are smaller.

The Redsbaby JIVE3 Pram, for example, can be used as a tandem pram right 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 one pram mode. You may also opt to use the adaptors for car capsules to convert it from a newborn to a toddler travel system.

The Side by Side Pram by Babybee is another option. This double side-byside pram comes in a variety of colours and is designed with a 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 baby is safe and comfy.

The Egg 2 is a stylish, sleek pushchair that can be transformed into a double side by side. It's available in a range of infant seat and carrycot configurations to accommodate twins or siblings of varying ages and is super-easy to fold. It's also quite light, which makes it a great choice for those with smaller cars or a limited storage space.

Convertible

Some of the top double prams or pushchairs are configured into different seats to accommodate your changing needs. It is possible to fit two toddlers in seats or a third child on the seat board and still have room for a shopping basket, and the capability to add additional accessories such as rain covers is another advantage. Most convertible double strollers are larger and heavier than single pushchairs due to the fact that they are required to be able to accommodate two or more children. The Graco Modes Nest2Grow is one instance of a low-cost convertible that is easy to use, although our testers felt that it was a little heavy for the price.

Some double strollers that can be converted into convertibles like the Baby Jogger City Select 2 include a carrycot suitable for babies. This allows the double stroller to be folded down and reduced in size when not being used. The City Select's innovative, one-handed folding impressed our test subjects but it does require some practice. It is also quite responsive and nimble even despite its size.

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

For greater flexibility, opt for a dual-mode convertible such as the iCandy Peach. It's a small double buggy that can hold two 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 light as some of the other models on our list, but it has a large basket that is useful for parents who are carrying bags filled with toys and other items.

Lightweight

Convertible double strollers are a great option for parents who have a child and expect another. The iCandy Peach allows you to transform from a single to a double pushchair, with the addition of an infant seat or the brand's carrycot (which is suitable for overnight sleeping). Our testers were pleased with the comfort of the seats and adore the fact that both recline to multiple positions, feature built-in leg and foot support and large UPF 50+ canopies with peekaboo windows. The rear seat can also be lifted high to offer an elevated platform for the older child to climb on and off, so that they can reach items in the shopping basket.

The only downside to the iCandy Peach is that it is quite heavy, but Cher found that it was offset by its ease to manoeuvre and how spacious the storage area is with two hanging parent and child cup holders, seat-back pockets and a large underseat basket. Cher also appreciated the feature that the seats are convertible, which means they can be positioned to face one another for siblings who wish to talk and get together when out and about.

The Delta Children LX Side-by-Side Stroller is a lighter option however, it is still awe-inspiring. It weighs just 18 pounds, is small and features self-standing fold, making it easy to transport or store in your trunk. Parents love the quality of materials and workmanship, as well as the price. The only drawbacks are that the seats do not recline as much as other models we've tested and the rear seat is not as prominent due to its location and height. It is higher than the front seat.

Another popular option is the Joolz Geo 3, which is slim sleek, stylish and easy to steer, and comes with an appealing design and a lifetime guarantee. Although they are narrower, side-by-side prams can still be larger than tandems and inline doubles. This can make them difficult to maneuver on busy streets and in shops. They are also shorter which makes them more maneuverable in tight spaces.
