Choosing a Double Pram and Pushchair

A double pram can simplify the lives of families, particularly in bustling shopping centers or on busy streets. Choose a model that has plenty of 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 once baby is born, and then changed to a twin mode after he or she arrives. Joolz offers a range of choices.

Tandem

The announcement that you are expecting a baby is one of life's most exciting experiences. But, once the initial excitement wears off and reality begins to sink into your life, you'll be faced with a variety of decisions regarding how to prepare your family for the arrival of your little one or ones. One of the most important considerations is choosing the correct pram or pushchair.

Tandem prams, also referred to as "in-line" double prams, are a classic design with two seats or bassinets placed side-by-side. The front seat is typically padded and reclines to a flat position making it suitable for babies while the second one is more upright and is able to accommodate toddlers from around three years older. Certain models feature seats that can be reversible, so you can choose to have your children face one another or look at you. Many tandems have the option to convert into a single pushchair when you decide your oldest child doesn't require the second seat.

A tandem is less expensive than twin stroller prams and is an ideal choice for parents who wish to save money, without losing safety or function. However, one disadvantage of a tandem is that it could be a bit heavy and lengthy to steer, especially when you're going up or down kerbs, and it is generally less stable than a twin stroller side by side pram, particularly if the older child is seated at the front. A tandem can also be difficult to fit onto public transport and is difficult to navigate on narrow pavements.

The iCandy Peach is a popular image-conscious model that's a great choice for a single parent who wants something streamlined however, the tandem mode can make it feel quite large and heavy 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 car seats, buggy seats, and carrycots (two at simultaneously or separately). The iCandy Wave tandem is another lightweight option that's user-friendly and compatible with a range of car seats or carrycots.

Side by side

There are a lot of things to think about when selecting a double pram or pushchair. Whether you're buying for twins or siblings close in age there are a variety of configuration choices to think about. Tandem prams, referred to as side-by-side prams are popular choices because they can be configured so that the infant is able to sit in the bassinet on top while the older child or toddler is seated in the second seat.

Some models come with reversible seats, which means you can modify the seating 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 while they walk.

Tandem prams can be jogging buggies, or All Terrain double stroller (bookmarkfeeds.stream)-terrain buggies. They are great for outdoor excursions, such as to the park. They're also a good option if you need to brave narrow checkout aisles or isles in supermarkets, as they tend to be smaller than single-seaters.

The Redsbaby JIVE3 pram for example, can be utilized in tandem mode from birth, with the addition of the Rumble seat. (PS249) Then, you can change to a single pram mode once your baby is old enough to leave the rumble seat or choose the adaptors for car capsules (PS53) to turn it into a traveler from infant to toddler.

The Side by Side Pram from Babybee is another option. This side-by-side double pram is available in a variety of colors and features a beautiful modern style. The design is intended to be used from birth, you can also add the LUNA newborn cocoon (PS262) or the LUNA infant seats (PS53 each) to ensure that your little ones are comfortable and safe.

The Egg 2 is a stylish, sleek pushchair that can be converted into a double side by side. It's available in a variety of carrycot and infant seat configurations to accommodate twins or siblings of varying age groups. It's also easy to fold. It is also relatively lightweight and therefore a good option for people with smaller vehicles or have limited space for storage.

Convertible

The top double prams and pushchairs are versatile, and some are even able to change into different seat configurations to suit your family's changing needs. There is the possibility of fitting two toddlers in the seats or a third child on the seat board, and still have room for a shopping basket, and the capability to add accessories like rain covers is also a benefit. In general, convertible double strollers are bigger and heavier than single pushchairs due to the fact that they are required to be able to hold two or more children. The Graco Modes Nest2Grow convertible is an example of a very affordable convertible that is easy to use. However, our reviewers thought it was somewhat heavy for its price.

Some nipper double buggy strollers that convert into convertibles, such as the Baby Jogger City Select 2 have a carrycot that is suitable for infants. This helps to reduce the size of the double pushchair with car seat stroller when not being used and makes it more compact. The City Select's clever single-handed folding impressed our testers however it requires some time to master. It's also very nimble and agile, despite being larger than other double strollers.

The Cybex Mockingbird single-to-double stroller is an alternative that is affordable. It converts from a parent-facing infant car seat to a forward-facing toddler seat, and the bassinet mode is a great option for infants (although remember that babies under 4 months old should never sleep in strollers because of the risk of asphyxia in a position).

If you want more flexibility look into a convertible with dual modes like the iCandy Peach. It's a compact double buggy that can hold two children side-by-side, but it can also be used as a tandem, with 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 pushchairs in our list however, it comes with a large shopping basket which is handy for parents carrying bags full of toys and groceries.

Some parents like to future-proof their double pushchair if they have one child and are expecting another, so a convertible option is a great option. The iCandy Peach can be converted from a single pushchair double by the addition of a toddler seat, or the brand's carrycot (which is great for sleeping at night). The seats are extremely comfortable and our testers appreciate 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 provide a standing platform for a child to climb off and on, so that they can reach items in the basket of groceries.

The only issue with the iCandy Peach is that it is quite heavy. However, Cher felt it was overcome by how easy it is to maneuver and how large the storage area is equipped with two hanging child and parent cup holders as well as seat-back pockets, and a large underseat storage basket. Cher also appreciated that the seats can be turned to be positioned to face each other, which is ideal for siblings who want to interact and talk when out and about.

The Delta Children LX Side-by-Side Stroller is a less heavy option however, it is still awe-inspiring. It weighs just 18 pounds, is compact and features a self standing fold, making it simple to transport or put in your trunk. Parents are impressed by the quality of the materials and workmanship as well as the affordable price. The only issue is that the seats don't recline as far as other models we've tested and the rear seat doesn't have great visibility due to its positioning - it's raised higher than the front seat.

The Joolz Geo 3 is another popular option. It is slim, sleek and easy to steer, and comes with an unbeatable lifetime warranty. It's worth bearing in mind that, despite their smaller size, side by side prams remain more spacious than tandem and in-line doubles and can be difficult to navigate on busy streets or in shops. However, they're generally smaller, and can be more maneuverable in tight spaces than tandems.
