Comfort

Double prams with side by side seats let your children communicate and meet while walking. However, they are typically larger than single prams, and therefore may not fit through certain doors or be difficult to maneuver on busy streets and in shopping centres. They are also bulkier when folded.

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

Many first-time parents opt for a convertible double pram to ensure their purchase is secure for the future and have the option of using it in single or double mode depending on your family's requirements.

Style

For many parents, the design of their double pram pushchair is a major aspect to think about. There are numerous stylish and practical options available to satisfy the preferences of all.

A popular choice is a side-byside double pram that has two fixed seats for children with similar ages. These are usually more compact than tandem or in-line double prams which makes them easier to navigate through doors and along busy footpaths and 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 allows you to convert your existing pushchair into a double one with the addition of the second seat.

The LUNA can be used in conjunction with a cozy LUNA newborn cocoon or with 2 car seats and adheres to all Australian safety standards.

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

Try the Cybex DUO2, available in duo or mono mode. It has a large basket that can be placed behind the seat when in parent-facing mode. The seat can be reversible to allow you to have your baby facing either you or the rest of the world.
