Buying a Double Pushchair From Birth
A double pushchair is a great option for those who enjoy long walks with your toddler, and plan to have a second child. There are numerous options to choose from.
The majority of tandem buggies are able to adapt to a variety of configurations. Some tandem buggies come with seats that can be reversed to allow siblings to sit facing one another, or you.
Size
It's important to keep in mind that double buggies are typically larger than single buggies. This is why it's important to ensure that the buggy you select fits through your home's doorways and can easily maneuver through kerbs, and up and down steps.
Double strollers tend to come in two main formats such as tandem and side-byside. Tandem buggies can be the best option for parents with twins. Side-by-side strollers work for children of all ages, and can be transformed into a single-to-double stroller with the addition of seats.
Most tandem buggies come with seats that face one another and come in various configurations. This lets your children be able to see each other while riding. However, if your kids are of a similar age to get along (or at the very least not fight over who gets the best seat!) You might find that they prefer sitting together rather than next to one another.
A great choice for families with twins or younger siblings that need to sit side by side is the iCandy Venus. This stylish and affordable buggy also has the added benefit of being able take an infant car seat as well which means it can grow with your family. iCandy includes extra accessories, such as fleecy liners to ensure that your infants stay warm and cozy in their cocoons.
Another option for growing families is the Egg2. This stylish pushchair is a favorite among fashion-conscious parents. It can be used as a single unit or as a double due to its flexible frame with adaptors for adding a seat or carrycot. It's not the cheapest double stroller, however it does come with unique features that distinguish it from its competitors, including an enormous shopping basket that sits behind the seat in the face-to-parent mode.
Style
Double buggies are usually larger and heavier. If you plan to purchase a buggie that you will keep for a long period of time, keep this in mind. They do have more storage space and a bigger basket. They also typically feature a parent-facing seat with an extendable sunshade as well as a the peekaboo window, aswell being reclining seats that can be reclined independently. Some models have an adjustable leg and foot rest that can be adjusted to ease any discomfort that is caused by long walking or prolonged periods of sitting.
The most well-known double buggy styles include side-by-sides and tandems. Tandems are designed with the children seated side-by-side with the same view. This helps avoid sibling fights over where to sit. But they're not 100% secure, and children are able to punch or kick each one another while riding. The side-by-side format is more conventional and has two fixed seats mounted on a single stroller frame. They might not have as many configurations and are generally ideal for babies who have mastered unassisted sitting but don't require the back support of an infant car seat.
If you're looking for a light double from birth Our lab experts recommend the Cybex Venus. This model is able to be changed from mono to twin mode by extending in width. It can accommodate either one or two infant seats or carrycots. The compact folding design features a large shopping basket, front and rear suspension, and a large shopping bag to ensure a smoother ride. The seats and the add-on RumbleSeat are padded and comfortable and come with adjustable foot and leg rests and large UPF 50+ canopy which provide plenty of shade.
Another great option is the Baby Jogger City Mini GT2. It's a side-by-side pushchair that's similar to the Venus. It is possible to configure it to meet your needs. It takes only one infant car seat, and you can add the Baby Jogger Glider Board for a third passenger (though this limits the usability to twins). The seat reclines independently, and the City Mini GT2 has some of the best maneuverability among double buggies. Testers reported that it was easy to maneuver between kerbs.
Comfort
The seat padding and fabrics are comfortable for both kids The UPF 50+ canopy is large enough to offer real shade. It also offers a cute peekaboo view. Our testers also appreciated that the seat reclines at a variety of angles. The only drawback to this model is that it isn't quite as compact as other models. However, our lab experts said it was easy to open and close.
Double buggies are larger, heavier and more expensive, but are a great investment for families who have two children of similar age (generally younger than 4). Select a brand that can last for many years and retain its value.
double pram and pushchair begin as one pushchair. They come with adaptors that allow you to add a second seat, carrycot or (in certain cases) car seats to the frame. Some of them are fixed doubles, but others - such as this one made by Leclerc can be converted to a side-by-side configuration when your children are ready to do so.
A side-by-side double buggy generally bigger than other types of buggy however, it's easier to maneuver over kerbs since the weight is distributed more evenly. It's not 100% safe to avoid sibling fights. Children sharing the same seat could punch or kick one another while riding.
A front-facing tandem can be an excellent alternative to a side by side model for older children. It can also lessen the possibility of sibling rivalries since your children aren't directly facing eachother. Some kids may feel excluded when a tandem faces towards the front, since they don't have the same perspective.
