Choosing a double infant stroller Pram and Pushchair

A good double stroller sale pram or pushchair can simplify family life, especially on busy streets or in shops and stores. Choose a model that has ample storage space to store nappies snacks, nappies, and other necessities.

Some parents who are first-time parents opt for a future-proof pushchair that can be used both as a single stroller when baby is born, and later changed to a twin mode when the baby is born. Joolz has a variety of choices.

Tandem

The news that you're expecting a baby is one of the most exciting events in your life. However, once the initial excitement wears off and reality sinks in, you could be faced with a multitude of decisions about how to prepare your family for the arrival of your baby one or ones. The proper stroller or pram is one of the most important things to consider.

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 babies. The second seat is a bit higher and designed to accommodate toddlers as young as 3 years. Some models let you choose whether your children look at each other or face each other. Many tandems have the option to convert into a single pushchair if you decide that your oldest child doesn't require the second seat.

In terms of price it is cheaper than a twin pushchair twin and can be a great choice for parents looking to save money without compromising on safety or convenience. A tandem can be a bit heavy and difficult to steer, especially when bumping over curbs. It is also less stable than twin pushchairs especially when a bigger child is seated in the front. A tandem isn't always easy to fit on public transport, and it may be difficult to maneuver narrow pavements.

The iCandy Peach is a popular model with a strong image that's a great option for a single parent who is looking for something that is sleek however, the tandem mode can make it feel long and heavy when pushing. It comes with an innovative frame that can be expanded to allow the addition of the second seat, and it can be used with multiple combinations of carrycots, buggy chairs and car seats (two at once 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

There are a lot of things to take into consideration when selecting a double pram or pushchair. Whether you're buying for twins or other siblings that are similar in age there are a variety of configuration options to consider. Tandem prams (also called side by sides prams) are a popular choice because they can be set up to accommodate infants with a bassinet at the top, while the larger toddler or infant sits in the second seat below.

Some models have reversible seating that allow you to customize the layout of your family throughout the infant and toddler years. This allows you to see your children at all times and allows them to be a part of the journey as they walk.

Tandem prams are often jogging buggies or all-terrain ones that is why they're great for outdoor excursions and the park. They're also a great option when you have to traverse narrow aisles in the supermarket or at checkouts as they're generally more compact than single-seaters.

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

The Side by Side Pram made by Babybee is another alternative. This side-by-side double pram is available in a variety of colours and has a beautiful modern style. Designed to be used right from birth, you can also include the LUNA newborn Cocoon (PS262) and the LUNA Infant Seats (PS53 each).

If you're looking for a sleek and elegant pushchair that can be converted into a side-byside double then the Egg 2 from Chicco is an excellent choice. It's available in a range of infant seat and carrycot combinations to cater for twins or siblings of varying age groups. It's also easy to fold. It's also quite light making it an ideal choice for families with smaller cars or a limited storage space.

Convertible

The best double prams and pushchairs are versatile, and some are even able to change into different seat configurations to suit your family's changing needs. You can fit two toddlers in seats or a third child on the seat board and still have room for a shopping basket and the ability to add accessories such as rain covers is a plus. In general, convertible double strollers are more spacious and heavier than single pushchairs due to the fact that they have to be able 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 testers thought it was quite 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 newborns. This helps to reduce the size of the double stroller for tall kids stroller when it is not being used and makes it smaller. The City Select's innovative folding system that is one-handed impressed our test subjects however it requires some time to master. It's also quite agile and responsive, despite it being bigger than other double strollers.

Another option that is reasonably priced is an affordable option is the Cybex Mockingbird Single-to-Double Stroller. The seat converts from a parent-facing infant car seat to a forward-facing toddler car seat and the bassinet-style mode is a fantastic option for infants (although remember that babies under 4 months old should not be able to sleep in strollers due to the risk of asphyxia in a position).

To be more flexible, opt for a convertible that has dual modes like the iCandy Peach. This is a narrow double buggy which can accommodate two children side-by-side however 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 some of the other pushchairs on our list, but it offers an ample shopping basket that is handy for parents carrying bags full of toys and food.

Lightweight

Convertible double pushchair from birth strollers are an excellent option for parents who already have children and anticipate the arrival of a second. The iCandy Peach can be converted from a single pushchair to double by the addition of a toddler's seat or the brand's carrycot (which works well for sleeping at night). Our test subjects were impressed by the comfort of the seats and adore the fact that they can recline in a variety of positions, come with built-in foot and leg supports and generous UPF 50+ canopy that has peekaboo windows. The rear seat can be raised to provide an elevated platform for the child to get off and on, to allow them to reach things in the shopping basket.

Cher stated that the only downside of the iCandy Peach was its weight. But she felt that this was compensated for because it is easy to move and offers plenty of storage space with two cup holders for children and parents as well as seat-back pockets and a large basket under the seat. Cher also appreciated the feature that the seats are convertible, which means they can be placed to face one another for siblings who want to chat and interact together when out and about.

A lighter, but equally impressive option is the Delta Children LX side-by-side stroller that weighs only 18 pounds, is extremely compact and features an auto-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 affordable price. The only downside is that the seats don't recline as much as some other models we've tried, and the rear seat doesn't have great visibility due to its positioning that is higher than the front seat.

Another popular option is the Joolz Geo 3, which is slim sleek, stylish and easy to steer, and comes with an attractive design and lifetime guarantee. Although they are narrower than side-by-side strollers, they can be larger than tandems and inline doubles. This makes them difficult to maneuver around busy footpaths and in shops. They are also shorter and therefore easier to maneuver in tight spaces.
