Buying a Double Pram Pushchair
A double
pram pushchair is the best option for parents who have more than one child. They're usually convertible, allowing you to attach a bassinet, another seat, or car capsule.
This sleek and light pram can be converted into a twin by using an innovative frame that can be expanded in width. It can also fit 2 carrycots, infant seats or a stroller. The canopy is UPF 50+ and has peekaboo windows.
Comfort
A double pram pushchair is an excellent investment if you're expecting a second child or if your toddler has already become a walking warrior. You might find yourself taking them on long family walks or on day trips. It's crucial to remember that not every double pram is created equal and it's essential to select 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 while on a stroll. They tend to be wider than single prams, and may not fit through certain doors. They may also be difficult to maneuver on busy footpaths or in shopping centers. They also tend to be heavier 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 usually farther away from the handle. Also, they may require more parts once you are ready to use them. They're also more expensive than a double side-by-side pram.
Some parents who are first-time parents choose an convertible double pram to future-proof their purchase and can use it in double or single mode based on your family's needs. They are usually quite large and bulky when folded, and may not suit your toddler once they have outgrown their pram seat. Research before purchasing.
Joolz offers a variety of different double pram pushchairs with a tandem or in-line layout that are easy to change and offer great value for your growing family. The Venus is a good example. It is our most popular twin pram as it can be used from birth with the addition of the newborn cocoons (PS59 each) to create a flat space for your babies. It can also be converted into a single by the addition of a toddler's board when your children are ready to walking on their own.
Safety
To keep both children secure and comfortable on their outings It is essential to select a stroller with cushioned harnesses. Double prams also often offer more storage space than single prams. This makes it easier to carry snacks, extra clothes, toys and other necessities for both children. It doesn't matter if you choose a side-by-side double pram or one that is front of the other, there are plenty of options to choose from.
The most sought-after option for double prams is a convertible model. They begin as a single stroller and can be transformed to accommodate a second seat, bassinet/carrycot, or an infant car seat. These are great for parents with two children of similar ages and want to future-proof their purchase.
Tandem prams, on other hand, offer more flexibility in seating and space for the child to stand or sit while the parent pushes. They're not foolproof as long as sibling squabbles are concerned though, so it's best to avoid having them in the same room simultaneously as much as possible.
Double strollers come in a variety styles and colors to help you pick the one that best fits your family. Many families choose a side-byside double pram because of its versatility. It is easily transformed into a twin travel system by adding a Maxi Cosi or Cybex car seat to the frame.
Many of our double strollers can be purchased in a set of twin strollers. This is a cheap method of purchasing a double pram. These sets come with everything you need to convert your new prams into twin travel systems. This includes two spacious toddler seats with sun canopy, a large basket, and adapters to car seats. This can save parents money by not having to buy an additional twin stroller. It's also a great option if you are a family that travels a lot. The Double Trouble Twin
pram newborn, for example is equipped with a pair of toddler seats that are suitable from birth and can be used with the Maxi-Cosi or Cybex Infino car seat to create a twin travel system.
Stores
It can be a difficult task to buy a double pushchair, however it's worth doing some research before making a purchase. There are a variety of factors to consider including the comfort of your children and you as parents, the fold, weight, size, and the wheels. It's also important to look at the quality of the fabric and how it is constructed. A well-constructed stroller will last longer, and can be repaired easily and will be more valuable at resale.
Another feature to consider is the number of seats or pram bassinets that the double pushchair can accommodate. You can ensure your purchase's future by selecting a tandem double buggy (in-line). This kind of double stroller has the children positioned in a row making it easier to get through doors and on public transport. Double buggies with tandems are often larger than a single pushchair. It is important to verify the dimensions prior to buying.

There are a variety of alternatives that you can choose from if you don't want a pram to grow with your child. There are plenty of small, single-seat pushchairs which have a large undercarriage storage basket and parent tray. Some models have a one hand fold and swivel wheel at the front for better mobility. These models are perfect for short walks, day trips or for running around. These models are great for grandparents and childcare providers who want to simply load their pushchairs into their car's boot or onto public transport.

Style
For many parents, the style of their double pram pushchair is a major factor to consider. There are a variety of stylish and practical options available to suit every taste.
A side-by-side pram that has two fixed seats is a favorite for parents of children of the same age. They are typically shorter than tandem or in-line double pushchairs making them easier to fit through doors and navigate busy streets and in shops. They can also be used with car seats or carrycots in the event that they are needed, based on your preference.
Another option is a single-to double pram conversion kit that allows you to turn your existing pushchair into double one by the addition of an additional seat. This is a great way to safeguard your investment for the future and avoid purchasing a new double buggy. The Joolz Geo3 is our favourite double pram for this. It combines both styles and has an elegant frame that can be expanded in width to accommodate a 2nd seat. It can be used for two carrycots, carseats and toddler seats when your child is older enough.
The Babybee LUNA is a stylish alternative. This stylish and secure double pram is suitable for children from birth until age five. Both seats are able to reclined independently and can be lowered to a flat position. The LUNA can also be used with two car seats or a cozy LUNA cocoon. It complies with Australian safety standards.
Non-convertible side-by-side double prams are also an excellent option, particularly for families with children close in age. These prams may be slightly wider than other double buggies, and are more difficult to navigate on busy footpaths, or up and down kerbs.
