Choosing a Double Pram and Pushchair

A good double pram or pushchair can simplify family life, especially on busy streets or in shops and stores. Pick a model with ample storage space to store nappies, snacks, and other essentials.

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

Tandem

The announcement that you're expecting a baby is one of the most exciting events in life. But, once the excitement fades and reality begins to sink into your life, you'll be faced with a multitude of choices regarding how to prepare your family for the arrival of your baby one or one. One of the most important aspects to consider is choosing the right pram or pushchair.

Tandem prams, also known as "in-line" double prams, are a classic style with two bassinets or seats placed side-by-side. The front seat is typically cushioned and reclines to a flat angle, making it suitable for infants while the second one is more upright and is able to accommodate toddlers as young as three years old. of age. Certain models let you select whether your children stare at each other or outwards. Many tandems can be converted into one pushchair once your oldest child is no longer required to have the second seat.

In terms of price the tandem is cheaper than a twin pushchair, and can be an excellent choice for parents looking to save money but not compromising on safety or convenience. A tandem can be heavy and difficult to steer, particularly when negotiating curbs. It's also less stable than twin prams especially when a bigger child is seated in the front. A tandem can also be difficult to fit onto public transport, and it can be difficult to maneuver on narrow pavements.

The iCandy Peach is a popular model that is a good choice for a singleton parent looking for a sleeker design, but the tandem mode can make it feel quite heavy and long when pushing. It comes with a clever frame that expands widthways to allow the addition of the second seat, and is compatible with many combinations of buggy seats, carrycots and car seats (two at a time or separately). The iCandy Wave is another lightweight tandem option that's easy to use and compatible with a variety of car seats and carrycots.

Side by side

When it comes to selecting a double pushchair or pram there's plenty to think about. If you're buying a double pram for twins or other siblings that are similar in age there are plenty of configuration choices to think about. Tandem prams (also called side by side prams) are a popular choice because they can be set up to fit infants in a bassinet at the top, while the larger toddler or infant is in the second seat below.

Some models even feature convertible seats, which means you can adapt the configuration to your family's requirements throughout the baby and toddler years. This lets you keep your kids always in your sight and also gives them a chance to get to know one another as they walk.

Tandem prams are typically all-terrain buggies or jogging ones, which means they're ideal for outdoor adventures and the park. They're also ideal for narrow aisles or checkouts in supermarkets and shops, as they are less bulky.

The Redsbaby JIVE3 pram for instance, can be used in tandem mode right from birth with the addition of the Rumble seat. (PS249) You can then change to a single pram mode once your child grows out of the rumble seat or select the adaptors for car capsules (PS53) to transform it into a traveler from newborn to toddler.

Another option is the Side by Side Pram from Babybee. This double side-byside pram comes in a variety of colors and is designed with a contemporary design. It is designed to be used from the moment of birth, you can add the LUNA Cocoon for newborns (PS262) and the LUNA Infant Seats (PS53 each).

If you're looking for a sleek, elegant pushchair that can convert into a side-by-side double, the Egg 2 from Chicco is a great option. It's available in a variety of infant and carrycot configurations to accommodate twins or siblings of varying ages and is super-easy to fold. It's also fairly light making it a great choice for those with smaller cars or a limited storage space.

Convertible

Some of the top double prams or pushchairs are set up to meet your changing needs. You can fit up to three children on the seat board, or two toddlers in the seats while still having room for a shopping bag. Accessories like rain covers are also available. In general, convertible double strollers are bigger and heavier than single pushchairs as they must be capable of holding two or more children. The Graco Modes Nest2Grow is one example of an affordable convertible that is easy to use, although our test subjects felt it was a little heavy for the money.

Some convertible double strollers like the Baby Jogger City Select 2 include a carrycot suitable for babies. This reduces the size of the best travel double stroller stroller when not in use, and makes it more compact. Our test participants were awestruck by the City Select's clever one-handed fold, although it takes a bit of practice. It's also quite agile and responsive, despite it being bigger than double strollers.

The Cybex Mockingbird single-to-best travel double stroller stroller is another affordable option. 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 to expand your options, consider a dual-mode convertible such as the iCandy Peach. It's a small double buggy that can fit two children in a row and can be used as a tandem with the addition of a second seat kit and rider board. It's responsive and agile, and our testers liked its sleek design. It's not as light as some of the other pushchairs we've reviewed, but it offers an enormous shopping basket that is handy for parents carrying bags of toys and groceries.

Lightweight

Convertible double strollers are an excellent option for parents who have one child and are expecting another. The iCandy Peach allows you to convert from a single to a double stroller with bassinet pushchair by the addition of either an infant seat or the brand's carrycot (which is suitable for sleeping at night). The seats are extremely comfortable and our testers love the fact that they can recline in various positions. They also like the feature that the canopy comes with an open window that can be seen from afar and has UPF 50+ protection. The rear seat can be elevated to provide a a standing platform for a child to get off and on, so they can reach things in the shopping basket.

The only downside to the iCandy Peach is that it is quite heavy. However, Cher found that this was balanced by how easy it is to maneuver and how large the storage space is, with two hanging parent and child cup holders with seat-back pockets as well as a large underseat storage basket. Cher also appreciated the feature that the seats are adjustable, meaning they can be set to face each other for siblings who wish to talk and interact while out and out and about.

A lighter-weight but just as impressive choice is the Delta Children LX side-by-side stroller, which weighs only 18 lbs, is super compact and has an auto-standing fold that makes it easy to transport and store in your trunk or at home. Parents love the quality of materials and workmanship, as well as the low price. The only drawbacks are that the seats do not recline as well as other models we have tested and the rear seat isn't as visible because of its position - it is raised higher than the front seat.

The Joolz Geo 3 is another popular choice. It is slim, sleek, and easy to steer and comes with a lifetime guarantee. It's worth bearing in mind that despite their narrower design Side by side prams are wider than tandem and in-line doubles and can be difficult to navigate through crowded footpaths or in shops. They're also shorter, making them more maneuverable in tight spaces.
