Buying a Double Pram Pushchair

A double pram pushchair (m1Bar.com) is a great option for parents who have more than one child. They usually convert and allow you to connect an additional seat or bassinet, or even a car capsule.

This sleek and light pram is able to be transformed to a twin with a clever frame that increases in size. It also fits two infant seats or carrycots and features a hugely generous UPF 50+ canopy, with windows that peek out.

Comfort

If you're expecting a second child or your toddler is already a walker and you've noticed that you're taking family walks or long day outings with them a double pram pushchair could be a great investment for you. It's crucial to keep in mind that not all double pram is alike and it's crucial to choose the one that is best suited to your needs.

Double prams that are side by side have two seats adjacent to each other so that your children can see each other and have fun while on a walk. They are generally larger than single prams, and may not fit through certain doorways. They may also be difficult to navigate on busy footpaths or in shopping malls. They also tend to be heavier when folded.

Tandem (in-line) double prams are a little easier to manoeuvre but not as narrow as single prams. They can be more difficult to fold as the seat is usually farther away from the handle and they may have more parts 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 secure their purchase and use it in single or double mode, depending on the needs of your family. However, they can be quite large and bulky when folded. They might not be suitable for your toddler once they grow out of their pram seat. Be cautious to conduct thorough research prior to buying.

Joolz offers a variety of double prams and pushchairs that can be used in tandem or in line. They are easy to convert and provide great functionality for growing families. The Venus is a good example. It is our most popular twin pram as it can be used starting at birth with the addition of the newborn cocoons (PS59 each) to create a lie-flat space for your babies. It can also be converted into one with the addition of a toddler's board when your children are ready to move on to walking independently.

Safety

In order to keep both children comfortable and safe when out, it's crucial to choose a double pram pushchair with padding for the seats and harnesses. Double prams can store more than single prams, making it easier to transport snacks, other clothing and toys for both children. There are numerous options available, whether you choose a double pram side-by-side or in front.

The most well-known option is a convertible double pram. They start out as a single stroller but can be transformed to accommodate a second seat, bassinet/carrycot, or an infant car seat. They are ideal for parents who have two children that are close to their age and want to make their purchase future-proof.

Tandem prams on the other hand offer more seating flexibility and also a place for children to sit or stand on a toddler board whilst the parent pushes them. They're not foolproof as long as squabbles between siblings are concerned though it is recommended to avoid having them in the same room simultaneously as much as possible.

Double prams of both types are available in a broad variety of styles and colours too so you can find the ideal model for your family's needs and preferences. Many families choose a side-by-side double pram due to its versatility as it can be easily adapted into a twin travel system simply by adding Maxi-Cosi or Cybex baby stroller car seat to the frame.

If you are looking for a less expensive option, many of our double prams can be purchased with a twin stroller set. The sets come with everything you need to convert your new stroller into a twin travel system, including two spacious toddler seats, a sun canopy, large shopping basket, and adapters for car seats for children. This helps parents save money by not having to buy an additional twin stroller. It is also great if you are a family that travels a lot. The Double Trouble Twin Pram, for example comes with two toddler seats that are suitable from birth and can be combined with the Maxi-Cosi or Cybex Infino car seat to create a twin travel stroller system.

Storage

There are so many factors to consider including comfort for your children and parents size, weight, fold and wheels. You should also take into consideration the fabric and the structure. A well-constructed stroller will last longer, can be repaired easily and have a higher value at resale.

Another thing to think about is the number of seats or pram bassinets that the double pushchair is able to accommodate. If you're looking to secure the future of your purchase, choose a tandem (in-line) double buggy. This type of double stroller allows the children to be positioned side-by-side making it easier for them to maneuver through doors and on public transport. Double buggies that are tandem can be wider than a single pushchair. It's important to check the dimensions prior to purchasing.

Style

For many parents, the style of their double pram pushchair is a big factor to consider. There are plenty of stylish and practical options there that will suit the preferences of anyone.

A common choice is a side-by-side double pushchair which offers two fixed seats for children with similar ages. These are usually smaller than tandem and in-line double prams which makes it easier to maneuver through doors, on busy streets or in shops. They can be used with car seats or carrycots should you prefer.

Another option is a single-to-double pram conversion kit that lets you convert your existing pushchair into a double one with the addition of the second seat. This is a great method to protect your investment in the near future and avoid buying a double buggy. The Joolz Geo3 is our favourite double pram for this. It is a blend of two styles and features an innovative frame that expands in size to accommodate a second seat. It can be used with two carrycots or carseats and has a space underneath for a toddler seat when your older child is ready to take it.

Other options that are stylish include the Babybee LUNA pram. This incredibly safe and stylish double pram is made to be suitable for babies from birth to 5 years with both seats independently recline to a flat position (which is recommended for newborns until they reach 6 months in age). The LUNA can also be used with two car seats or a cosy LUNA cocoon. It is compliant with Australian safety standards.

These double prams can be an excellent option for families with close-aged children. But, it's important to keep in mind that these kinds of prams tend to be larger than other double buggies, and can be difficult to maneuver on crowded footpaths and up and down kerbs.

Try the Cybex DUO2, that is available in mono or duo mode. It comes with a large basket that can be placed behind the seat when in the parent-facing position. The seat can be reversed so you can put your child facing either you or the rest of the world.
