Choosing a Double Pram and Pushchair

A well-designed double pram or pushchair can simplify the lives of families, especially when walking on busy roads or in stores and shops. Look for a model with ample storage space to store nappies, snacks, and other essentials.

Some first-time parents opt for a future proof pushchair that can be used as a single pram once bub is born and then changed into a Twin Stroller Side By Side mode after the baby is born. Joolz provides a variety of these options.

Tandem

The news that you're expecting a baby is one of the most exciting events in your life. When the excitement wears off and the reality of the situation kicks in, you will have to make a number of choices regarding how to prepare your family. One of the most important aspects to consider is choosing the best pram or pushchair.

Tandem prams (also called 'in-line' double prams) are a classic design that feature two seats or pram bassinets that are arranged side by side. The front seat, which is typically padded, reclines flat and is suitable for babies. The second seat is upright and is designed to accommodate toddlers as young as 3 years. Some models come with reversible seating so you can choose whether your children face towards each other or gaze at you. Many tandems can be converted to one pushchair once your oldest child is no longer in need of the second seat.

A tandem is less expensive than twin strollers for newborns prams and can be a great option for parents who want to save money, without having to sacrifice safety or functional. However, the drawback of a tandem is that it can feel long and heavy to steer, especially when you're going up or down kerbs, and it is generally less stable than a twin pushchair, especially if the child who is older is sitting in the front. A tandem can also be difficult to fit onto public transport, and it can be difficult to navigate on narrow roads.

The iCandy Peach is a popular image-conscious model 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 quite heavy and long when pushing. It's got frames that can be expanded in width to accommodate the second seat. It can be used with a variety of buggy seats, car seats, and carrycots (two at one time or in separate). The iCandy Wave is another lightweight double buggy tandem option that is easy to use and compatible with a variety of car seats and carrycots.

Side by side

There are many aspects to consider when choosing a double pushchair or pram. There are numerous configuration options to choose from, regardless of whether you're buying for twins or close-in-age siblings. Tandem prams (also known as side by side prams) are a popular choice since they can be set up to fit infants in a bassinet on the top, while the larger infant or toddler sits in the seat below.

Some models even have convertible seats, which means you can modify the seating to meet the needs of your family throughout the baby and toddler years. This allows you to keep your children always in your sight and gives them a chance to interact with each other as they stroll.

Tandem prams are often jogging or all-terrain buggies which makes them ideal for outdoor excursions and the park. They're also a good option when you have to traverse narrow checkout aisles or isles in supermarkets, as they're generally smaller than single-seaters.

The Redsbaby JIVE3 pram for instance, can be utilized in tandem mode from birth, with the addition of the rumble seat. (PS249) When your child grows out of the rumble seat, you can change to a single pram mode. You can also opt to make use of the car capsule adaptors to convert it from a newborn to a toddler travel system.

The Side by Side Pram by Babybee is another alternative. This side-by-side double pram is available in a variety of colours and has a beautiful modern style. It is designed to be used from birth, you can also add the LUNA newborn cocoon (PS262) or the LUNA infant seats (PS53 each) to ensure your baby is secure and comfortable.

If you're looking for a sleek and elegant pushchair that can be converted into a double-sided side-by-side, the Egg 2 from Chicco is an excellent choice. It's available in a variety of carrycot and infant seat configurations to accommodate twins or siblings of various age groups. It's also easy to fold. It's also fairly light making it an ideal option for those with small cars or limited storage space.

Convertible

The best double prams or pushchairs are configured into different seats to accommodate your changing needs. It is possible to fit up to three children on the seat board or two toddlers in the seats, with enough space for shopping bags. Accessories such as rain covers are also available. Convertible double strollers are generally heavier and bulkier than single pushchairs due to the fact that they need to hold two or more children. The Graco Modes Nest2Grow is one example of a convertible that is affordable that is user-friendly, but our testers thought it was a bit heavy for the price.

Some double strollers that convert into convertibles, such as the Baby Jogger City Select 2 come with a carrycot suitable for babies. This reduces the size of the double stroller when not being used and makes it more compact. Our test participants were awestruck by the City Select's unique one-handed fold, though it requires some time to master. It's also quite agile and agile, despite being larger than other double strollers.

The Cybex Mockingbird single-to-double pram pushchair 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 option for infants.

To be more flexible, opt for a convertible with dual modes such as the iCandy Peach. This is a narrow double buggy which can accommodate two children side-by-side and can be used as a tandem with the addition of a second-seat kit and rider board. It feels nimble and responsive, and our test users were impressed by its sleek design. It's not as light as the other models on our list however it does come with a huge basket that is useful for parents who have to carry bags full of toys and other items.

Convertible double strollers are a great option for parents who have children and anticipate another. The iCandy Peach can be converted from a single pushchair into double by the addition of a toddler seat or the brand's carrycot (which is great for sleeping at night). The seats are very comfortable and our testers appreciate that they can be reclined in a variety of positions. They also appreciate the design of the canopy, which has a window that peeks out and offers UPF 50+ protection. The rear seat can be lifted high to offer a standing platform for a child to get on and off, so they can access items in the shopping basket.

Cher said that the one disadvantage of the iCandy Peach was its weight. However, she felt this was offset by the fact that it's easy to move and offers plenty of storage space with two cup holders for parents and their children seats-back pockets, as well as a large basket under the seat. She also appreciated the feature that the seats are convertible, which means they can be set to face one another for siblings who want to talk and get together when out and out and about.

A lighter, but equally impressive option is the Delta Children LX side-by-side stroller, which weighs only 18 lbs, is super compact and has a self-standing fold that makes it easy to transport and store in your trunk or at home. Parents love the quality of the materials and workmanship as well as the low price point. The only downside is that the seats don't recline as much as the other models we've examined and the back seat isn't very well-lit due to its positioning that is higher than the front seat.

The Joolz Geo 3 is another popular option. It's slim, sleek, and easy to steer, and comes with a lifetime warranty. It is important to remember that, despite their slimmer design side by side prams remain more spacious than tandem and in-line doubles. They may be difficult to navigate on busy footpaths or in stores. However, they're usually shorter, which means they can be more maneuverable in tight spaces than tandems.
