Choosing a Double Pram and Pushchair A good double pram or pushchair can simplify the lives of families, especially when walking on busy roads or in shops and stores. Look for a model with ample storage space for nappies, snacks, and other essentials. Some parents who are first-time parents choose an infant pushchair that can be used as a single pram once bub is born and then changed into a twin mode after the baby is born. Joolz offers a range of these options. Tandem The news that you're about to have a baby is one of the most exciting events in your life. Once the excitement has worn off and the reality of the situation sets in, you'll be faced with many decisions regarding how you can prepare your family. One of the most important considerations is choosing the correct pram or pushchair. Tandem prams, also referred as “in-line” double prams, are a classic design that has two bassinets or seats placed side by side. The front seat is usually cushioned and reclines to a flat angle, making it suitable for newborns, while the second seat is more upright and is able to accommodate toddlers as young as three years old. of age. Some models come with seats that can be reversible, so you can decide if your children face each other or look out at you. Many tandems also have the option of converting into a single pushchair when you decide that your oldest child does not require the second seat. A tandem is less expensive than a twin pram and is an excellent choice for parents who want to save money, but without compromising safety or functionality. However, the drawback of a tandem is that it can feel long and heavy to steer especially when moving up and down kerbs. Additionally, it is usually less stable than a twin pram particularly if the older child is sitting in the front. A tandem can be difficult to place on public transportation, and it can be difficult to maneuver narrow pavements. The iCandy Peach, a popular model that focuses on image, is a fantastic choice for parents who are single and want an attractive design. However the tandem mode can make it feel heavy and long to push. It comes with an innovative frame that expands in width to accommodate the second seat, and it is compatible with many combinations of carrycots, buggy seats and car seats (two at once or separately). The iCandy Wave tandem is another lightweight option that is easy to use and compatible with a variety of carrycots or car seats. Side by side There are many things to think about when selecting a double pushchair or pram. There are many configuration options available, whether you're buying for twins or close-in-age siblings. Tandem prams (also known as side by side prams) are popular choices as they can be configured to fit infants in a bassinet on top, while the larger toddler or infant is in the second seat below. Some models have reversible seating that let you customize the layout of your family members throughout the toddler and baby years. This allows you to see your children at all times, and gives them the chance to interact while they walk. Tandem prams can be jogging buggies or all-terrain buggies. They are perfect for trips outdoors, such as to the park. They are also great for narrow aisles and checkouts in shops and supermarkets because they are less bulky. The Redsbaby JIVE3 Pram, for example, can be used as a tandem pram from birth in the dual mode by adding the use of the rumble seat (PS249). If your child is no longer a member of the rumble chair you can switch to the single pram mode. You can also choose to use the adaptors for car capsules to transform it from a newborn to a toddler travel system. The Side by Side Pram by Babybee is another alternative. This double pram side-by-side is available in a variety of colors and comes with an attractive modern style. Designed to be used right from the moment of birth, you can add the LUNA Cocoon for newborns (PS262) and the LUNA Infant Seats (PS53 each). The Egg 2 is a stylish, sleek pushchair that is able to be converted into a double side-byside. It's available in a range of infant seat and carrycot configurations to accommodate twins or siblings of different ages and is super-easy to fold. It's also lightweight and therefore a good option for those with smaller vehicles or have limited space for storage. Convertible The top double prams and pushchairs can be used in a variety of ways, and some are even able to change into different seating configurations to meet the changing needs of your family. It is possible to fit two toddlers in seats or even a third one on the seat board and still have enough space 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 larger and heavier than single pushchairs due to the fact that they are designed to accommodate two or more children. The Graco Modes Nest2Grow is one example of a convertible that is affordable that is easy to use, although our testers felt that it was a bit heavy for the money. Some convertible double strollers like the Baby Jogger City Select 2 comes with a carrycot that is suitable for infants. This helps to reduce the size of the double stroller when not being used and makes it smaller. The City Select's clever single-handed folding impressed our test participants but it does require some practice. It's also quite agile and responsive, despite being bigger than double strollers. The Cybex Mockingbird single-to-double stroller is another option that is reasonably priced. twin buggy from a car seat with a parent seat to a forward-facing toddler seat, and the bassinet mode is a fantastic option for infants (although be aware that babies younger than 4 months old should not use strollers to sleep due to the risk of asphyxia in a position). If you want more flexibility look into a convertible with dual modes such as the iCandy Peach. This is a narrow double stroller that is able to accommodate two children side-by-side. It can also be used to create a tandem by adding a second seat kit. It is fluid and responsive, and our testers were impressed by its sleek design. It's not as light as the other models on our list but it comes with a big basket that is useful for parents who are carrying bags of toys and groceries. Lightweight Convertible double strollers are an excellent option for parents who have a child and expect the arrival of a second. The iCandy Peach allows you to transform from a single to a double pushchair with the addition of either a toddler seat or the brand's carrycot (which is suitable for overnight sleeping). Our testers were pleased with the comfort of the seats and love the fact that can recline in a variety of positions, come with built-in foot and leg supports and generous UPF 50+ canopy that has windows that peek out. The rear seat can be raised to provide an elevated platform for the older child to get on and off, to allow them to reach things in the shopping basket. The only issue with the iCandy Peach is that it is quite heavy, but Cher felt it was offset by how easy it is to move around and how big the storage is with two hanging parent and child cup holders as well as seat-back pockets, and an enormous underseat basket. She also appreciated the fact that the seats are reversible, so they can be placed to face each other for siblings who want to chat and interact together when out and out and about. A lighter-weight but just as impressive choice 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 carry and store in your trunk or at home. Parents appreciate the high-quality materials and workmanship, and the low cost. The only downsides are that the seats don't recline as well as other models we have tested and the rear seat is not as prominent due to its location as it 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 guarantee. 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 tricky to navigate on busy footpaths or in stores. However, they're generally shorter too, so are easier to maneuver in tight spaces than tandems.
