Choosing a double pram and pushchair - glamorouslengths.com -

A double pram can make life easier for families, especially in busy shops or on busy streets. Select a model that offers ample storage space for nappies as well as snacks and other essentials.

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

Tandem

The news that you're expecting the birth of a child is one of the most exciting events in life. Once the excitement has worn off and the reality of the situation begins to set in, you'll have to make a number of decisions regarding how to prepare your family for. The right pram or stroller is one of the most important considerations.

Tandem prams, also referred as "in-line" double prams, are a classic design with two seats or bassinets placed side-by-side. The front seat, which is usually cushioned, reclines and is suitable for infants. The second seat is a bit higher and is designed to accommodate toddlers as young as 3 years. Some models come with the option of reversible seating, which lets you decide if your children face one another or look at you. Many tandems can be converted into a single pushchair when your oldest child is no longer required to have the second seat.

In terms of price, a tandem is much cheaper than a twin pushchair and can be an excellent choice for parents looking to save money but not compromising on safety or functionality. However, a drawback of a tandem is that it could feel long and heavy to steer especially when moving up and down kerbs. Additionally, it is often less stable than a twin stroller side by side pram, especially if the child who is older is seated at the front. A tandem can be difficult to get onto public transport and can be difficult to navigate on narrow roads.

The iCandy Peach is a popular model that is a good option for a single to double buggy parent who is looking for something that is sleek, but the tandem mode can make it feel heavy and long when pushing. It comes with an innovative frame that can be expanded to allow the addition of the second seat, and is compatible with many combinations of carrycots, buggy seats 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 range of car seats and carrycots.

Side by side

There are a lot of things to take into consideration when selecting a double pushchair or pram. There are a variety of configuration options to choose from, whether you're purchasing for twins or close-in-age siblings. Tandem prams (also called side by sides prams) are popular choices as they can be set up to accommodate infants with a bassinet on the top, while the larger toddler or infant is in the lower seat below.

Some models come with 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 will allow you to keep your little ones in sight at all times and also gives them a chance to interact with each other while they walk.

Tandem prams are usually jogging or all-terrain buggies which makes them ideal for outdoor adventures and in the park. They're also ideal for narrow aisles and checkouts in supermarkets and shops as they are more compact.

The Redsbaby JIVE3 Pram, for instance can be used as a tandem pram right from birth in the dual mode, with the addition of the rumble seat (PS249). Then, you can switch to the single pram mode once your baby is old enough to leave the rumble seat or choose the car capsule adaptors (PS53) to transform it into a traveler from newborn to toddler.

The Side by Side Pram made by Babybee is another option. The side-by-side double pram is available in a range of colours and has an attractive modern style. The design is intended to be used from birth, you can add the LUNA newborn cocoon (PS262) or the LUNA infant seats (PS53 each) to ensure that your baby is safe and comfy.

The Egg 2 is a stylish elegant pushchair that can be transformed into a double side-byside. It comes in a range of infant and carrycots to accommodate twins or siblings with different age ranges. It's also incredibly easy to collapse. It's also fairly light, which makes it an ideal option for those with small cars or limited storage space.

Convertible

The top double prams and pushchairs are versatile and some are capable of changing seating configurations to meet your family's changing needs. You can fit up to three children on the seat board or two toddlers in the seats and still have enough space for shopping bags. Accessories such as rain covers are also available. Convertible double strollers are generally larger and heavier 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 simple to use. However, our reviewers thought it was quite heavy for the money.

Some double strollers that convert into convertibles, such as the Baby Jogger City Select 2 include a carrycot suitable for babies. This allows the double stroller to be compacted and reduce in size when not being used. The City Select's innovative, one-handed folding impressed our testers, but it takes some time to master. It's also very nimble and agile, despite being larger than other double strollers.

Another option that is reasonably priced is the Cybex Mockingbird Single-to-Double Stroller. 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.

To be more flexible, opt for a dual-mode convertible such as the iCandy Peach. It's a compact double stroller that can accommodate two children at the same time. It can also be used to make a tandem by incorporating a second seat kit. It feels agile and responsive, and our test users liked its sleek design. It's not quite as lightweight double pushchair like some of the other models we've reviewed, however it does come with a huge basket that's great for parents who are carrying bags full of toys and groceries.

Convertible double strollers are an excellent alternative for parents who have a child and expect another. 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 to sleep at night). The seats are extremely comfortable and our testers appreciate the fact that they can recline in multiple positions. They also love the fact that the canopy has a peekaboo window and UPF 50+ protection. The rear seat can also be elevated to provide a a standing platform for the child to climb on and off, to allow them to reach things in the basket of groceries.

Cher said that the only negative aspect 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, including two cup holders for parents and their children seats-back pockets, as well as a large basket under the seat. Cher also liked that the seats can be reversed to face each other, which is ideal for siblings who like to chat and have conversations while out and about.

The Delta Children LX Side-by-Side Stroller is a lighter option however, it is still awe-inspiring. It weighs only 18 pounds, is small and features a self standing fold, making it easy to transport or put in your trunk. Parents appreciate the quality of the materials and workmanship as well as the affordable price. The only drawback is that the seats don't recline as far as some other models we've tested, and the rear seat isn't very well-lit due to its position - it's 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 warranty. While they're smaller side-by-side prams may be larger than tandems and inline doubles. This makes them difficult to maneuver around busy footpaths and in shops. However, they're generally smaller, and are easier to maneuver in tight spaces than tandems.
