Buying a Double Pram PushchairA double pram pushchair is a great option for parents with more than one child. They're usually convertible, allowing you to attach a bassinet, another seat or car capsule.
Lightweight and stylish The sleek and stylish pram can be converted into a twin by using an innovative frame that expands the width. It can also fit 2 carrycots, infant chairs or a stroller. The canopy is UPF 50+ and has windows that peek out.
Comfort
A double pram pushchair is a great investment if you're expecting a new baby or the toddler has already become an avid walker. You might end up taking them on long family walks or even day excursions. But, it's important to remember that not every double pram is created equal and it's essential to select the one that is best suited to your lifestyle.
Double prams with side by side seats allow your children to interact and see each other while walking. However, they are typically wider than single prams and thus may not be able to fit through certain doors or be difficult to maneuver on busy streets and in shopping centres. They are also heavier when folded.
Tandem double prams (in-line) are easier to maneuver, however they aren't as narrow. They can be more difficult to fold because the seat is generally further away from the handle and they may contain more components to assemble when you're ready to use them again. They're also more expensive than a double side-by-side pram.
Some parents who are first-time parents choose a convertible double pram to future-proof their purchase and can use it in either single or double mode depending on the needs of your family. They are usually quite large and bulky when folded, and might not fit your toddler after they've outgrown their seat. Research before buying.
Joolz offers different double prams pushchairs that can be used in tandem or in a line. They are easy to change, and provide great functionality for growing families. The Venus is a good example. It is our best-selling twin pram due to its ability to be used starting at birth with the addition of newborn cocoons (PS59 each) to create a lie-flat area for your baby. It can also be converted to one with the addition of a toddler board once your children are ready to walking independently.
Safety
To ensure that both children are safe and comfortable during outings it is crucial to select a stroller newborn with padded harnesses. Double prams usually offer more storage space than single prams. This makes it easier to transport snacks, extra clothing, toys and other necessities for both children. If you're looking to pick a side by side double pram or one in the front of each other, there are lots of options to consider.
The most sought-after option for double prams is a convertible model. They start as a single pram and can later be combined with an additional seat or bassinet/carry cot, as well as infant car seats. They're ideal for those who have two children close in age and want to future proof their purchase.
Tandem prams on the other hand, provide more flexibility in seating and allow for the child to stand or sit while the parent pushes. They aren't foolproof as far as squabbles between siblings are concerned it's advisable to avoid putting them in the same place simultaneously if possible.
Double prams of both types are available in a wide range of colours and styles to ensure that you find the ideal model for your family's needs and tastes. Many families opt for a side-by-side double pram due to its flexibility. It can be easily converted into a twin travel system by adding the Maxi Cosi or Cybex car seat to the frame.
Many of our double strollers can be purchased in a matching twin-stroller set. This is a cost-effective way to purchase a double pram. These sets come with everything you need to turn your new prams into twin travel systems. This includes two large toddler seats, sun canopy, large basket, and adapters for car seats. This saves money for parents by not having to buy a separate twin stroller. It is also great if you are a family who travels frequently. The Double Trouble Twin Pram, for example is equipped 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 complete twin travel system.
Storage
It can be a daunting task to buy a double pushchair, but it is worth doing some research before making your purchase. There are many aspects to think about, including comfort for your children and parents fold, weight, size and wheels. Also, you should consider the fabric and construction. A properly-constructed pram will last longer, be capable of being repaired easily and will have a higher price for resales.
Another feature to consider is the number of seats or pram bassinets that the double pushchair is able to accommodate. If you're hoping to future-proof your purchase, choose a tandem (in-line) double buggy. This type of double stroller allows 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 are typically wider in general than a single pram pushchair, but it is important to confirm the dimensions prior to buying.
If you're looking to purchase a stylish city-friendly double pram pushchair look no further than the Joolz Geo 3 Double. This compact model is able to be used in public transport as well as through narrow doors. It can accommodate twins or a toddler and baby, and can even be used with UPPAbaby's PiggyBack board for older siblings. The Geo 3 is easy-to-steer, comes with a large basket and comes with a lifetime warranty for added peace of mind.
If you're not looking for a pram that will expand with your child there are many alternatives to pick from. There are a variety of small, single-seat pushchairs which include an enormous undercarriage storage basket and parent tray. Some models also come with an easy fold and the front wheels can be swiveled for more manoeuvrability. These models are perfect for day trips, short walks or for running errands. These models are great for parents and grandparents who wish to put their pushchairs in their car's boot or on public transportation. The model is available in a range of stylish colors, so you're sure to find one that fits your family's style.
Style
For many parents, the design of their double pram pushchair is a big aspect to think about. There are plenty of fashionable and practical options available to meet the needs of any.
The most popular option is a side-byside double pram that has two fixed seats for children of similar age. They tend to be smaller than tandem or in-line double pushchairs making them easier to fit through doors and navigate on crowded footpaths and in shops. They can be used with car seats or carrycots in the event that you prefer.
Another option is a single-to double pram conversion kit that allows you to convert your current pushchair into a double one with the addition of a second seat. This is a great method to protect your investment in the future and avoid the expense of buying a brand double buggy. The Joolz Geo3 is our favourite double pram for this. It blends both styles and features an innovative frame that expands in the width to accommodate a second seat. It can be used with two carseats or carrycots and has a space underneath to accommodate a toddler seat if your older child is ready for it.
The Babybee LUNA is yet another fashionable alternative. This stylish and secure double pram is suitable for babies from birth up to age five. Both seats can be reclined independently to an upright position. The LUNA can be used with a cosy LUNA newborn cocoon, or with two car seats, and it conforms to all Australian safety standards.
Non-convertible side-byside double prams can be an excellent option, particularly for families with children close in age. These prams are a bit wider than other double buggies, and they can be difficult to navigate on busy footpaths, or down and up kerbs.
Try the Cybex DUO2, that is available in mono or duo mode. It has a large basket that can be placed behind the seat when in the parent-facing position. The seat can be reversed so you can have your child facing either you or the rest of the world.
