Buying a Double Pram Pushchair

A double pram pushchair is the best option for parents with more than one child. They are usually convertible and allow the attachment of a a second seat as well as a bassinet or car capsule.

This stylish and lightweight pram is able to be transformed into a twin by using a clever frame that expands in width. It also accommodates 2 carrycots or infant seats and has a huge UPF 50+ canopy, with peekaboo windows.

Comfort

If you're expecting a second child or your toddler is a walker and you've found yourself going on family walks or long day outings with them, a double pram pushchair might be an essential investment for you. It's crucial to keep in mind that not every double pram is created equal and it's crucial to choose the one that is best suited to your needs.

Double prams with side-by-side seats allow your children to interact and see each other when they go for a walk. They are generally larger than single prams, and may not be able to pass through certain doorways. They may also be difficult to navigate on busy footpaths or in shopping centres. They are also bulkier when folded.

Tandem (in-line) double prams are a little more maneuverable, but they aren't as narrow as single prams. They are more difficult to fold because the seat is generally farther away from the handle and they may contain more components to put together when you're ready to use them again. They are also more expensive than a side by side double pram.

Some first-time parents choose a double convertible pram to be able to ensure their investment and to use it in single or double mode, depending on the needs of your family. They are usually quite large and bulky when folded and may not suit your toddler once they have outgrown their pram seat. Do some research before purchasing.

It can be transformed into a single pram with the addition of a toddler board, when your children are old enough to be independent walking.

Safety

To keep the children secure and comfortable during outings it's important to select a double pram pushchair with padding for the harnesses and seats. Double prams can store more than single prams, making it easier to transport snacks, extra clothes and toys for both children. There are a variety of options to choose from, whether you choose a double pram that is side by side or in front.

Tandem prams on the other hand provide more flexibility in seating and a space for children to sit or stand on a toddler's board while the parent pushes them. However, they are not infallible when it comes down to fighting between siblings. It is recommended to avoid putting them in the same car.

Double prams of both types are available in a vast range of colours and styles to ensure that you find the ideal model for your family's needs and preferences.

Storage

It's a daunting task to purchase a double pushchair, but it's worth researching before you make your purchase. There are many factors to take into consideration, including the comfort of your children and you as parents folding, weight, size and wheels.

This type of double stroller features the children placed side by side, which makes it easier to navigate doorways and public transportation. Tandem double buggies are often larger overall than a single pram pushchair, however, so it is essential to verify the dimensions prior to purchasing.

Style

For many parents, the style of their double pram pushchair is a big consideration. There are a variety of attractive and practical options to meet the needs of every person.

A side-byside pram with two fixed seats is a popular option for parents of children of the same age. They tend to be more compact than tandem or in-line double prams which makes it easier to maneuver through doors and on busy footpaths or in shops. They can also be used with car seats or carrycots if needed, depending on your preference.

Another option is a single-to-double pram conversion kit which allows you to convert your current pushchair into a double one with just the addition of a second seat. This is a great option if you want to ensure your investment is secure and avoid the expense of buying an entirely new double buggy. The Joolz Geo3 is our favourite double pram for this. It combines two styles and features a clever frame which expands in the width to accommodate a second seat. It can be used with two carrycots or carseats and includes a space to accommodate a toddler seat if your child is older and ready for it.

The Babybee LUNA is another stylish alternative. This extremely safe and stylish double pram is designed to suit infants aged between birth and 5 years old. Both seats independently recline to a flat position (which is recommended for newborns until they reach around 6 months old). The LUNA can be used with the cozy LUNA newborn cocoon, or with 2 car seats and adheres to all Australian safety standards.

Non-convertible side by side double prams can be a good choice, especially for families with children who are close in age. These prams can be slightly wider than other double buggies and they can be difficult to navigate on busy footpaths or down and up kerbs.

Try the Cybex DUO2 that is available in duo or mono mode. It features a large shopping basket that is placed behind the seat in parent-facing mode and features a reversible seat so that you can choose your baby is facing you or the world.
