Choosing a Double Pram and Pushchair

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

Some parents who are first-time parents opt for a future-proof pushchair that can be used both as a single stroller once baby is born, and later transformed into a twin-mode after the baby arrives. Joolz offers a wide range of choices.

Tandem

The announcement that you're expecting the birth of a child is one of the most exciting times in life. But, once the initial excitement wears off and reality sinks into your life, you'll be faced with a variety of choices regarding how to prepare your family for the arrival of your baby one or ones. One of the most important considerations is choosing the right pram or pushchair.

Tandem prams (also known as "in-line" double prams) are a timeless design that feature two seats or pram bassinets arranged side by side. The front seat, which is usually cushioned, reclines and is suitable for babies. The second seat is upright and designed to fit toddlers as young as 3 years old. Some models let you choose whether your children look at each other or outwards. Many tandems also have the option of being converted into a single pushchair in the event that you decide your oldest child no longer needs 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. However, the drawback of a tandem is that it can feel long and heavy to steer especially when moving up and down kerbs, and it is often less stable than a twin buggy pushchair, especially if the child with the most weight is seated in the front. A tandem can be difficult to fit on public transport, and it can be difficult to navigate narrow roads.

The iCandy Peach is a popular model with a strong image that's a great choice for a singleton parent who is looking for something that is sleek however the tandem mode can make it feel heavy and long when pushing. It comes with a frame that expands in width to accommodate the second seat. It can be used with a range of combinations of buggy seats, car seats and carrycots (two at one time or in separate). The iCandy Wave is another lightweight double pushchair tandem option that is easy to use and compatible with a range of carrycots and car seats.

Side by side

There are many things to take into consideration when selecting a double pram or pushchair. If you're buying a double pram for twins or other siblings that are similar in age there are a variety of configuration options to consider. Tandem prams, referred to as side-by-side prams are popular choices because they can be set up so that the infant can sit in the bassinet on top while the older child or toddler is seated in the second seat.

Some models have reversible seating that allow you to customize the seating arrangement for your family throughout the infant and toddler years. This lets you see your children at all times and gives them the chance to interact as they walk.

Tandem prams are typically all-terrain buggies or jogging ones that is why they're great for outdoor adventures and the park. They're also a great option if you need to brave narrow checkout aisles or isles in supermarkets, as they tend to be more compact than single-seaters.

The Redsbaby JIVE3 Pram, for example, can be used as a tandem pram starting from birth in dual mode, with the addition of the rumble seat (PS249). If your child is no longer a member of the rumble chair, you can switch to one pram mode. You can also opt to use the car capsule adaptors to transform it from a newborn to a toddler travel system.

Another alternative is the Side by Side Pram from Babybee. This double side-byside pram comes in a variety of colours and is designed with a contemporary design. 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 that your little ones are safe and comfy.

If you're looking for a sleek, elegant pushchair that can convert into a side-byside double and a side-by-side double, the Egg 2 from Chicco is an excellent choice. It's available in a variety of infant seat and carrycot configurations to accommodate twins or siblings of varying ages and is super-easy to fold. It's also fairly lightweight and therefore a good option for people with smaller vehicles or have limited space to store.

Convertible

The best double prams or pushchairs can be set up to meet your changing needs. It is possible to fit two toddlers in seats or even a third one on the seat board and still have room for a shopping basket and the option to add additional accessories such as rain covers is another benefit. Convertible double strollers are generally larger and heavier than single pushchairs, as they need to hold two or more children. The Graco Modes Nest2Grow convertible is an example of a very affordable convertible that is simple to use. However, our test participants found it to be quite heavy for its price.

Some double strollers that convert into convertibles, such as the Baby Jogger City Select 2 come with a carrycot suitable for babies. This helps to reduce the size of the double stroller when it is not in use, and makes it more compact. Our test subjects were awed by the City Select's clever one-handed fold, though it takes a bit of practice. It's also quite agile and agile, despite being larger than other double strollers.

Another option that is affordable is an affordable option is the Cybex Mockingbird Single-to-double Stroller for twins Stroller. It can be transformed from a parent facing infant car seat to an forward-facing toddler seat. The bassinet mode is a great choice for infants.

If you're looking for more flexibility, consider a dual-mode convertible like the iCandy Peach. It's a compact double stroller with bassinet stroller that can accommodate two children side-by-side. It can be used to create a tandem by incorporating a second seat kit. It is responsive and nimble, and our testers liked its sleek design. It's not as light as some of the other pushchairs in our list, but it offers an ample shopping basket that is handy for parents carrying bags of toys and food.

lightweight double stroller

Some parents prefer to secure their double pushchair if they have one child and are expecting another, so a convertible option is an excellent choice. The iCandy Peach can be converted from a single pushchair to double by the addition of a toddler seat or the brand's carrycot (which is ideal for sleeping at night). The seats are extremely comfortable and our test subjects love that they can recline in various positions. They also appreciate the design of the canopy, which has a peekaboo window and UPF 50+ protection. The rear seat can be raised to allow the child of a higher age can stand on it to reach the shopping basket.

Cher stated that the only disadvantage of the iCandy Peach was its weight. However, she felt this was offset because it's easy to move and has plenty of storage and cup holders for parents and children seats-back pockets, as well as a large basket underneath the seat. She also appreciated the seat's design, which is reversible, so they can be set to face one another for siblings who wish to talk and interact when out and out and about.

The Delta Children LX Side-by-Side Stroller is a smaller model and still impressive. It weighs just 18 pounds, is lightweight, and has an auto-standing fold, making it easy to transport or store in your trunk. Parents love the quality of materials and workmanship, as well as the cost. The only drawbacks are that the seats do not recline as well as other models we have tested and the rear seat is not as visible due to its position - it is raised higher than the front seat.

The Joolz Geo 3 is another popular option. It's slim, sleek, and easy to steer and comes with an unbeatable lifetime warranty. Although they are smaller than side-by-side strollers, they can be wider than tandems and inline doubles. This makes them difficult to maneuver on busy footpaths and in shops. They're also shorter and therefore easier to maneuver in tight spaces.
