Choosing a Double Pram and Pushchair A good double pram or pushchair can simplify family life, especially on busy footpaths or in stores and shops. Look for a model with generous storage space for stowing nappies, snacks and other essentials. Some parents who are first-time parents opt for a future-proof pushchair which can be used as a single stroller at the time baby is born, and later changed to a twin mode after the baby arrives. Joolz offers a range of these options. Tandem The announcement that you are expecting a baby is among the most exciting events in life. However, once the excitement fades and reality begins to sink in, you may be faced with a myriad of decisions about how to prepare your family for the arrival of your new one or ones. The proper stroller or pram is among the most crucial considerations. pushchairs double (also called 'in-line' double prams) are a classic design that have two bassinets or seats for prams arranged side by side. The front seat, which is typically cushioned, reclines and is suitable for babies. The second seat is a bit higher and designed to accommodate toddlers as young as 3 years. Certain models let you choose whether your children look at each other or outwards. Many tandems can be converted to a single pushchair when your oldest child is no longer in need of the second seat. A tandem is less expensive than twin prams and is an ideal choice for parents who want to save money, without losing safety or function. A tandem can be heavy and difficult to steer, particularly when you're tripping over the kerbs. It is also less stable than twin prams particularly if a larger child is seated in the front. A tandem can be difficult to transport on public transport and can be difficult to navigate on narrow roads. The iCandy Peach, a popular model that focuses on image, is a fantastic option for parents with one child who want a sleeker design. However the tandem mode makes it feel long and heavy to push. It has 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 one time or in separate). The iCandy Wave is another lightweight tandem option that is easy to use and compatible with a range of carrycots and car seats. Side by side When it comes to selecting a double pushchair or pram there's a lot to think about. There are many configuration options available, whether you're buying for twins or close-in-age siblings. Tandem prams (also called side by side prams) are a popular choice since they can be arranged to fit infants in a bassinet on the top, while the older toddler or infant sits in the second seat below. Some models even have seats that can be reversible, meaning you can alter the seating arrangement to suit your family's needs throughout the toddler and baby years. This allows you to keep your children always in your sights and also gives them the chance to interact with each other as they stroll. Tandem prams are typically jogging buggies or all-terrain ones, which means they're ideal for outdoor excursions and the park. They are also great for narrow aisles and checkouts in shops and supermarkets because they are more compact. The Redsbaby JIVE3 pram for example can be used in tandem mode from birth, but with the addition of an Rumble seat. (PS249) Then, you can switch to the single mode once your baby grows out of the rumble seat, or use the adaptors for car capsules (PS53) to transform it into a travel system from infant to toddler. The Side by Side Pram by Babybee is a different alternative. This double pram side-by-side is available in a variety of colors and comes with a beautiful modern style. Designed to be used right from birth, you can add the LUNA newborn Cocoon (PS262) and the LUNA Infant Seats (PS53 each). The Egg 2 is a stylish, sleek pushchair that can be converted into a double side-byside. It comes in a range of infant and carrycots to accommodate twins or siblings with different age groups. It's also easy to collapse. It's also relatively lightweight and therefore a great choice for those with small cars or limited storage space. Convertible The best double prams and pushchairs can be used in a variety of ways, and some are even capable of changing seating configurations to meet the changing needs of your family. It is possible to fit two toddlers in seats or a third child on the seat board, and still have room for a basket to store your shopping, and the ability to add additional accessories such as rain covers is also a plus. Convertible double strollers tend to be heavier and bulkier than single pushchairs because they are designed to accommodate two or more children. The Graco Modes Nest2Grow convertible is an example of a very affordable convertible that is easy to use. However, our test participants considered it to be a bit heavy for its price. Some convertible double strollers like 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 smaller. Our test participants were awestruck by the City Select's innovative one-handed fold, although it takes some practice. It also feels quite nimble and responsive, despite being bigger than double strollers. The Cybex Mockingbird single-to-double stroller is another option that is reasonably priced. The seat 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. If you're looking to expand your options look into a convertible with dual modes like the iCandy Peach. It's a slim double stroller that can accommodate two children in a tandem. It can be used to create a tandem by adding a second seat kit. It feels agile and agile, and our testers loved its sleek design. It's not as lightweight as the other models on our list, but it has a large basket that is useful for parents carrying bags filled with toys and other items. Lightweight Some parents want to ensure the future of their double pushchair if they have a child and are expecting another, so a convertible option is a great option. The iCandy Peach can be converted from a single pushchair into double with the addition of a toddler's seat or the brand's carrycot (which is ideal for sleeping at night). Our test subjects were impressed by the comfort of the seats and loved the fact that they both recline to different positions, feature built-in foot and leg supports and generous UPF 50+ canopy that has peekaboo windows. The rear seat can be raised so that the child who is older can stand on it to reach the basket of shopping. Cher said that the only downside of the iCandy Peach was its weight. However, she believed that this was compensated for because it's easy to move and comes with plenty of storage space, including two cup holders for parents and their children seats-back pockets, as well as a large basket underneath the seat. She also liked the seat's design, which is convertible, which means 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 lighter option and still impressive. It weighs just 18 pounds, is compact and features self-standing fold, making it easy to transport or store in your trunk. Parents are impressed by the quality of the materials and workmanship and the price is low. The only downsides are that the seats do not recline as much as other models we've tried and the rear seat isn't as visible due to its location – it is raised higher than the front seat. The Joolz Geo 3 is another popular choice. It's slim, sleek and easy to steer and comes with an unbeatable lifetime warranty. Although they are narrower, side-by-side prams can still be wider than tandems and inline doubles. This can make them difficult to maneuver on busy footpaths and in shops. However, they are often shorter, which means they are easier to maneuver in tight spaces than tandems.
