Choosing a double stroller with infant car seat Pram and Pushchair

A good double pram or pushchair can simplify family life, especially when walking on busy roads or in stores and shops. Choose a model with generous storage space for stowing nappies, snacks and other essentials.

Some parents who are first-time parents choose a future proof pushchair that can be used as a single stroller when bub is born and then changed into a twin mode once he or she has arrived. Joolz offers a wide range of choices.

Tandem

The announcement that you are expecting a baby is among life's most exciting experiences. However, after the excitement fades and reality sinks in, you may be faced with a variety of decisions regarding how to prepare your family for the arrival of your baby one or one. One of the most important considerations is choosing the best twin buggy pram or pushchair.

Tandem prams (also known as 'in-line' double prams) are a classic design with two seats or pram bassinets that are arranged side by side. The front seat is typically covered in padding and reclines to a flat position, making it suitable for newborns and the second seat is more upright and can accommodate toddlers from around three years old. Certain models let you select whether your children stare at each other or outwards. Many tandems also have the option of being converted into a single pushchair in the event that you decide your oldest child doesn't require the second seat.

In terms of cost it is cheaper than a twin pushchair and can be an excellent choice for parents who want to save money without compromising on safety or function. A tandem can be a bit heavy and difficult to steer, especially when negotiating kerbs. It's also less stable than twin pushchairs particularly if a larger child is riding in the front. A tandem can also be tricky to get onto public transport and is difficult to maneuver on narrow roads.

The iCandy Peach, a popular model that is focused on image, is a fantastic option for parents who are single and want a sleeker appearance. However the tandem mode can make it feel heavy and long to push. It comes with a frame that expands in width to accommodate the second seat. It can be used with a range of combinations of buggy seats, car seats, and carrycots (two at one time or in separate). The iCandy Wave is another lightweight tandem option that's easy to use and compatible with a range of carrycots and car seats.

Side by side

There are many things to think about when selecting a double pram or pushchair. Whether you're buying for twins or siblings close in age, there are a number of configuration options to take into account. Tandem prams, also known as side-by-side prams, are popular choices because they can be set up so that the infant is able to sit n stand double stroller in the bassinet on top while the toddler or older child is sitting in the second chair.

Some models have reversible seats that let you customize the configuration for your family throughout the toddler and baby years. This lets you see your children at all times and allows them to connect with them as they walk.

Tandem prams are usually jogging or all-terrain buggies which makes them ideal for outdoor adventures and in the park. They're also a good choice if you need to brave narrow aisles in the supermarket or at checkouts, as they tend to be smaller than single-seaters.

The Redsbaby JIVE3 pram for example can be used in tandem mode from birth, with the addition of a rumble seat. (PS249) Then, you can switch to the single mode once your child grows out of the rumble seat or select the adaptors for car capsules (PS53) to transform it into a travel system from infant to toddler.

Another option is the Side by Side Pram from Babybee. This double side-by-side pram comes in a variety of colors and is designed with a contemporary design. It is designed to be used from birth, you can also add the LUNA newborn Cocoon (PS262) and the LUNA Infant Seats (PS53 each).

The Egg 2 is a stylish, sleek pushchair that can be converted into a double side-byside. It comes in a range of infant seats and carrycots to accommodate twins or siblings with different age ranges. It's also incredibly easy to fold. It's also relatively lightweight and therefore an ideal choice for families with small cars or limited storage space.

Convertible

The best double prams and pushchairs can be used in a variety of ways and some are able to change into different seat configurations to suit your changing family needs. You can fit two toddlers in the seats or a third child on the seat board, and still have enough space for a shopping basket and the ability to add accessories such as rain covers is another plus. Convertible double strollers tend to be heavier and bulkier than single pushchairs due to the fact that they are designed to accommodate two or more children. The Graco Modes Nest2Grow convertible is an example of an inexpensive convertible that is very easy to use. However, our test participants found it to be quite heavy for its price.

Some convertible double strollers like the Baby Jogger City Select 2, have a carrycot option which is suitable for newborns. This reduces the size of the double stroller when not in use and makes it more compact. Our test subjects were awed by the City Select's innovative one-handed fold, though it does take some time to master. It's also quite agile and responsive, despite it being bigger than double strollers.

The Cybex Mockingbird single-to-double stroller is another affordable option. It can be transformed from a child-facing car seat to a forward-facing toddler seat. The bassinet mode is a great choice for infants.

For more flexibility, look for a dual-mode convertible like the iCandy Peach. It's a compact double buggy that can hold two children side-by-side, but it can also be used as a tandem by the addition of a second seat kit and rider board. It is responsive and nimble and our test participants loved its sleek design. It's not as light as the other pushchairs on our list however it does come with an enormous shopping basket that is handy for parents carrying bags full of toys and groceries.

Convertible double pram pushchair strollers are a great option for parents who already have children and anticipate the arrival of a second. The iCandy Peach can be converted from a single pushchair double into a double with the addition of a toddler's seat or the brand's carrycot (which is great for sleeping at night). Our testers noted how comfortable the seats are and adore the fact that they both recline to different positions, have built-in foot and leg supports and large UPF 50+ canopy with windows that peek out. The rear seat can be raised to provide an elevated platform for a child to climb off and on, so they can access items in the basket of groceries.

Cher stated that the only negative aspect of the iCandy Peach was its weight. However, she believed that this was compensated for because it's easy to move and offers plenty of storage space, including two cup holders for parents and children seats-back pockets, as well as a large basket under the seat. She also appreciated the feature that the seats are reversible, so they can be placed to face each other for siblings that want to talk and interact when out and out and about.

The Delta Children LX Side-by-Side Stroller is a less heavy option however, it is still awe-inspiring. It weighs only 18 pounds, is lightweight, and has a self standing fold, making it simple to carry around or put in your trunk. Parents love the quality of the materials and craftsmanship as well as the affordable price. The only negatives are that the seats don't recline as much as other models we've tried and the rear seat is not as visible due to its location - it is raised higher than the seat in front.

Another popular choice is the Joolz Geo 3, which is slim and sleek. It is also easy to steer, and comes with an appealing design and a lifetime guarantee. It is important to remember that, despite their smaller size, side by side prams remain larger than tandems and in-line doubles and can be tricky to navigate on busy streets or in shops. They are also shorter and therefore more maneuverable in tight spaces.
