Buying a double travel stroller Pram Pushchair

A double pram pushchair is great for parents with twins, or a toddler and newborn. It makes travelling with two children much easier. Many models come with two seats that are padded and face the world that are reversible for siblings to sit together or to face the parent, and an extra rumble seat designed for older children that's slightly more upright and simple to use.

Here are some examples of

One of the main aspects to consider when purchasing a double pram pushchair is how flexible it can be. If you're looking for something that will evolve with your family, or a solution that will get your child from newborn to toddler there are plenty of options on the market.

The best double pram is also going to be a practical choice for busy families and parents, so look for features that make it easier to navigate urban environments and rough terrain. The ideal double pram will be easy to maneuver through crowded streets or narrow aisles in stores. Also an intelligent folding mechanism will ensure it's easy to load it into the car's boot or fold up to store at home.

Another thing to take into account is how wide or narrow the double pram pushchair is and this will determine whether it can fit through your front door or any other doors you frequent. Side-by-side double prams tend to be more narrow than tandem models, however it's worth checking the dimensions of your selected model to ensure it's able to pass through any doors you regularly use.

Some of the best double prams have reversible seats, so you can choose to have your children face one other or sit facing the parent. This allows them to connect and socialize with each other as you run the errands. Some double prams are equipped with adjustable footrests and seat pads to keep your children comfy.

It's also worth looking into a double pram that could be used in conjunction with the baby bassinet, baby capsule or carrycot. It can be used as a double-pram for your older child and later add another seat, bassinet or carrycot when the baby is born. In many instances this will save space and money compared to buying two separate prams for every stage of your family's existence.

One feature worth looking for in a double pram pushchair is the capacity to recline the seat and canopy with the push of the button. You can create a comfy lie-flat area for your child to rest during long drives. The Joolz Venus, for example is a reclining toddler seat and add-on RumbleSeat that can be reclined to a variety of positions at the touch of a button. The seats, which are padded and reversible, are extremely comfortable, and the large UPF 50+ canopy with peekaboo windows is generous enough to provide real shade.

Styles

A double pram is essential for families with twins or siblings close in age that are looking to spend time with each other during family outings. There are many different double pram pushchairs to pick from and deciding what style is best for your family may be a daunting decision. Some of the most common designs include single-to-dual, side by-side and tandem. Side-by-side strollers are great for siblings, as they have equal visibility and seating positions that allow children to be social. However it is important to remember that they can be longer and bulkier than single prams, and may not be as easily maneuverable in crowded spaces or on public transport.

Dual-toddler strollers, on the contrary, are more spacious and have 2 toddler seats which can be adjusted to fit your child's requirements. They can also accommodate an additional infant car seat or carrycot which makes them an ideal choice for twins or two kids of similar age.

Side-by-side prams that are not convertible can't stop sibling fights since it's possible for a child to punch or kick another child while sitting. These prams aren't suitable for children who have different developmental milestones, as they have to change their seating positions throughout the day.

Tandem prams are a popular choice as they provide ample space for your growing family, while allowing you to take advantage of the outdoors. They are a great option for siblings who are close in age as they promote interaction and can be customised with seating options that suit your family's needs. They can be huge and wide, making them less maneuverable than convertible or single prams. They can also be difficult to fit into doorways.

The single-to-dual Cybex Wave is a popular and innovative design. The pushchair is available in a variety of configurations ranging from newborns to 4 years old young, and can be used with an additional carrycot, tandem, or infant car seats. This unique design not only helps you save money by not having to purchase a separate pram for your older child, but also looks amazing too!

Size

When you are looking for a double pram pushchair, the size is a crucial aspect to consider. Double strollers are typically wider than single prams and often have a bigger footprint due to the extra seat. This means they may be a bit longer as well. Before purchasing, it is important to check the dimensions to make sure your new buggy can fit through the doorways and halls at home.

Double prams that can be used side-by-side, such as the Bugaboo Donkey 5 are perfect for siblings who are of similar age. Both seats offer views of their surroundings and offer a variety of seating options that encourage interaction between children. However, this kind of double pram can be quite wide and will probably not be able to fit through some doors, making it ideal for homes with big entrances.

Tandem double prams like the CYBEX Gazelle S Twin umbrella Stroller Pram are made for twins or siblings who are close in age. They can be used right from birth with the baby car seat. They can be converted into one pushchair by adding a carrycot or a bassinet. This makes them easier to use on public transportation.

Reclining seats are yet another excellent feature to look for in a double pushchair, because they provide additional flexibility and comfort for both children. They can allow one child to lie flat for a nap while the other sits up, and they're an ideal choice for newborns up to toddlers.

Storage space is another thing to look for in double prams, as many models have ample storage solutions to stow everything you need to carry and additional items. This will help reduce the need for additional bags and backpacks, which will make trips out more comfortable.

Some double prams have adjustable handlebars which is a great feature for parents of all heights. You can adjust the handlebars to suit your height. This makes it easy for taller parents not to stoop and for shorter parents to maintain a healthy posture when pushing the buggy.

Safety

A good double pram must have a secure harness that is easy to fasten and unfasten. Find buckles with five points (one strap over each leg and arm and a sixth strap that extends out from the center of the seat). It is also helpful to have padded seats that have plenty of padding around the shoulders, head, and legs and a large shopping basket that can accommodate both kids' belongings.

A sturdy chassis is an important safety feature, as is a locking brake, especially when travelling downhill. Some models come with a telescopic bar that allows you to adjust its height to allow you to maneuver the stroller with ease.

The most effective double prams are those that have two toddler seats. Some can also accommodate an infant car-seat as well as a bassinet/carry cot for newborns. They might also come with a large shopping basket and features like an extendable sun canopy and parent consoles.

Choosing the right kind of double stroller for your family can be difficult. Convertible prams are a great option when you are planning to have a child in the next three years. They can be converted into one stroller. A tandem double stroller can be a good choice for parents looking to keep their children close in age.

It's important to note that both styles have their disadvantages, for instance the seats of a side-by-side double stroller can be awkwardly placed and can result in sibling disputes over who gets to sit in which spot. It is also recommended to choose one with an easy-folding mechanism. This makes it easier to put in the trunk of your car or navigate public transport or store it at your home. It should also be easy to maneuver, whether driving it down an artery or through narrow doorways. Be sure to be aware of the weight of the pram, because this can influence how easily you move it around.
