Buying a Double Pram Pushchair

A double pram pushchair is the best option for parents who have more than one child. They're typically convertible, which means you can attach a bassinet, another seat, or even a car capsule.

This sleek and light pram is able to be transformed into a twin by using a clever frame that expands in size. It can also accommodate two carrycots, infant seats or a stroller. The canopy is UPF 50+ and features windows that peek out.

Comfort

If you're expecting a second child or your toddler is a walking warrior and you've been going on family walks or full day outings with them a double pram pushchair might be a must-have for you. But, it's important to remember that not every double pram is alike and it's important to pick the right one for your needs.

Double prams with side by side seats let your children communicate and meet while on a stroll. They are usually wider than single prams and may not be able to pass through certain doors. They can also be difficult to navigate on busy footpaths or in shopping malls. They are also bulkier when folded.

Tandem double prams (in-line) are easier to maneuver, but not as narrow. They are more difficult to fold since the seat is often further away from the handle. Additionally, they could require more components when you are ready to use them. They also cost more than a double side-by-side pram.

Some parents who are first-time parents opt for a double convertible pram in order to ensure their investment and be able to use it in a double or single mode, based on the requirements of your family. However, they can be very large and heavy when folded. They may not be suitable for your child as they grow out of their pram with car seat seat. Be careful to do some thorough research before purchasing.

Joolz provides a range of different double pram pushchairs prams pushchairs with a tandem or in-line layout that are easy to convert and are great for the growing family. The Venus, for example, is our most popular twin pram as it can be used from birth, with the addition of newborn cocoons (PS59 each) to create a lie-flat area for your baby. It can also be converted to a single by the addition of a toddler board when your children are ready to transition to walking on their own.

Safety

To keep both children safe and comfortable during outings It is essential to select a stroller with padded harnesses. Double top prams have more storage than single prams, making it much easier to transport snacks, extra clothing and toys for both children. Whether you want to choose a side by side double pram or one that is the front of each other, there are plenty of options to choose from.

The most well-known option is a convertible double pram. They begin as a single stroller, but can be converted to accommodate a second seat, bassinet/carrycot or an infant car seat. They're ideal for those who have two children that are close in age and are looking to make their purchase future-proof.

Tandem prams on the contrary, provide more flexibility in seating and space for the child to sit or stand while the parent pushes. However, they are not foolproof when it comes to sibling fights. It is best to avoid putting them in the same seat.

Both types of double strolls come in a variety of colours and styles to help you pick the one that best fits your family. Many people prefer a side by side double childs pram due to its versatility, as it is able to be easily converted into a twin travel set-up simply by adding Maxi-Cosi or Cybex baby car seat to the frame.

To save money some of our double prams are available with a twin stroller set. The sets come with everything you need to transform your new stroller into a twin travel system.

This helps parents save money by not having to buy a separate twin stroller. It's also great if you are a family who travels often. The Double Trouble Twin Pram, for instance comes with a pair of toddler seats that are suitable for babies and can be used in conjunction with the Maxi-Cosi or Cybex Infino car seat to create a twin travel system.

Storage

A double pram pushchair may appear like a daunting job however, it's worth your research prior to making your purchase.

The capacity of a double pushchair to accommodate bassinets or seats is another thing to consider. If you're hoping to future-proof your purchase, consider a tandem (in-line) double buggy. This type of double stroller allows the children to be placed side-by-side making it easier for them to maneuver through doors and on public transport. Tandem double buggies are often wider overall than a single pram pushchair, however, so it is essential to verify the measurements prior to purchasing.

Style

For many parents, the design of their double pram pushchair is an important factor to consider. Luckily, there are plenty of stylish and practical options out there that will suit the preferences of anyone.

A side-by-side pram with two fixed seats is a favorite for parents of children of the same age. These are often smaller than tandem or in-line double pushchairs, making them easier to fit through doors and navigate busy streets and in shops. They can be used in conjunction with carrycots or car seats when needed, based on your preference.

A single-to double conversion kit enables you to convert your current pushchair by adding a second seat. This is a great method to protect your investment in the near future and avoid purchasing a double buggy. Our favourite option for this is the Joolz Geo3 double pram which combines both styles with an innovative frame that expands in width to accommodate the second seat. It can be used to accommodate two carrycots, carseats and toddler seats when your child is old enough.

The Babybee LUNA is yet another fashionable option. This stylish and safe double pram is suitable for children from birth up to age five. Both seats are able to reclined independently in an upright position. The LUNA can be used in conjunction with the cozy LUNA newborn cocoon, or with 2 car seats and adheres to all Australian safety standards.

Double prams are a good option for families with close-aged children. But, it's important to keep in mind that these types of prams are usually wider than other double buggies, and aren't easy to maneuver on crowded footpaths and up and down kerbs.

If you're looking for a smaller and less bulky option you can try the Cybex DUO2, which is available in mono and duo mode. It has a large grocery basket that is placed behind the seat in parent-facing mode and comes with a reversible seating to allow you to have your baby facing you or to the world.
