Buying a Double Pushchair From Birth

A double pushchair is a fantastic option if you love long walks with your toddler, and are planning to have a second child. There are many options to pick from.

The majority of tandem buggies can be configured in a variety ways. For instance, some models have seats that can be reversed to let your siblings face each other or you.

Size

It's important to remember that double buggies are typically larger than single buggies. Make sure that the buggy is able to fit into the doors of your home and be able to easily maneuver between stairs and kerbs.

Double strollers come in two main designs that are tandem and side by side. Tandem buggies can be a great option for parents of twins, whereas side-by-side strollers are suitable for children of various ages and often transform into single-to-double pushchairs, by adding a seat or carrycot to the frame.

Most tandem buggies come with seats that face each other and come in multiple configurations. This lets your children see one another while riding. However, if your kids are old enough to be able to get along (or at least not fight over who has the best seat!) You may find they prefer facing each other than sitting next to one another.

A great option for families with twins or younger siblings that need to sit together 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 expand with your family. iCandy comes with extra accessories, like fleecy liners, to ensure that your newborns stay warm and cozy in their cocoons.

Another option for growing families is the Egg2. This sleek pushchair is a popular choice for image-conscious parents. It can be used as a single or as a double due to its flexible frame with adaptors for adding a seat or carrycot. It's not the most cost-effective double stroller, but it does have some unique features which distinguish it from other strollers. One of them is a large basket that sits behind the seat when it's in the parent-facing mode.

Style

The majority of double buggies are heavier and bulkier than single models So keep this in mind when planning on buying one that will see you through several years. However, they offer more storage space, typically with a bigger basket for shopping. They typically also come with a parent-facing seat with a sunshade that can be extended and a peekaboo window, as well as seats that recline independently. Some models come with an adjustable leg and foot rest that can be adjusted to relieve any discomfort caused by walks or prolonged sitting.

The most well-known double buggy designs are side-by-sides and tandems. Tandems place the children side by side, which gives them both the same view. It can also help to avoid sibling squabbles over who gets to sit where. They're not foolproof, and children can still kick or punch each other when they ride. The side-by-side model is more traditional, with two fixed seats positioned on a single stroller frame. They don't offer the same number of configurations, and they're usually best for babies who are comfortable sitting unaided but don't need the back support of an infant car seat.

Our lab experts recommend the Cybex Venus if you're seeking a light, double from birth. This model is cleverly designed to expand widthways to convert from mono to twin mode, and can accommodate either two or one carrycot and/or infant seats. It's also compact when folded, and features a spacious shopping basket and rear and front suspensions for a more comfortable ride. The seats and the optional RumbleSeat are cushioned and comfortable with adjustable foot and leg rests, as well as generous UPF 50+ canopy which offer plenty of shade.

Another good-value choice is the Baby Jogger City Mini GT2. Similar to the Venus, it's a side-by-side pushchair that can be set up to meet the needs of your family. It can accommodate only one infant car seat and you can also add the Baby Jogger Glider Board for an additional 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 move between kerbs.

Comfort

The padding and fabric are comfortable for both kids and adults The UPF 50+ canopy is large enough to offer real shade, and also has a cute peekaboo window. The seat reclines in multiple positions,, which our testers appreciated. The only drawback is that the fold isn't as small as other models, however our lab experts believe it is easy to open and close.

Double buggies are heavier, bulkier and more expensive but are an excellent investment for families with two children of similar age (generally less than 4). Select a brand that can last for a long time and keep its value.

Tandem buggies were originally a single pushchair, but they can be fitted with adaptors that permit the addition of an additional seat or carrycot (in certain situations) a car seat to the frame. Some are fixed doubles, while others - such as this one made by Leclerc - can switch to a side-by-side configuration when your children are old enough to be ready for it.

While a side-byside is typically wider than other types of double buggy that converts to single buggy, it can be easier to move through kerbs, as the weight is distributed more evenly. It's not foolproof to keep siblings from fighting. Children in the same seat can kick or punch each other while riding.

A front-facing tandem can be an alternative to a side-byside model for older kids and is less susceptible to squabbles between siblings, since your children aren't directly facing each other. Some kids may feel excluded in a tandem that is facing toward the rear, as they don't get the same view.

The egg2 features a sleek modern design and attractive price. Our test subjects loved the ease of use and push, but wished it had more storage and that the handlebars were more comfortable. It is suitable from birth and can be used in twin mode as early as newborn, or as the combination of carrycot(s)/infant seats/car seat(s) for twins - it's the most flexible of our double buggies, which is why it's been a MadeForMums favorite since 2009. It's not the most affordable double buggy, but it comes with a competitive cost and an excellent selling.

Storage

If you have more than one child having a double pushchair from birth will make life much easier when out and out and about. There are many different types of double push chair strollers, from tandems to side by side in a variety of styles and colours. Before purchasing you must take into consideration your family's lifestyle and the features that are most important to you. Analyzing your needs will help you narrow down your options and select the right double pram for you.

A good double buggy should be small and user-friendly. This is especially crucial for those who live in an urban area where you need a double buggy that can navigate busy streets and squeeze through doorways that are narrow for shopping or on lunch runs.

The majority of top double buggies come with suspension to soften the impact on bumps and uneven surfaces. They also come with recline features to allow your child to take a nap. It is also essential that both seats have comfortable straps and buckles, built-in adjustable foot and leg rests, UPF 50+ canopies with peekaboo windows, and seats that are reversible, to allow siblings to face each other and the world around them.

Another aspect to consider when choosing a double pushchair is how small it is when folded. Certain double buggies are designed to fold into smaller sizes that are easy to carry and fit into small spaces, such as cupboards. Some may be a bit heavier but will still be relatively easy to move and store.

If you're on a tight budget, you can find double strollers for sale at a great price. For instance, the Cybex Influencer can be used as a single stroller double or a double, and it includes a basket that sits underneath the seat in parent-facing mode. It is also light, folds flat, and has a great resale value.

The UPPAbaby is a great option for families because it can fit two infant car seats and be configured in different ways. It comes with reversible seats, so your children can face one another or the world, and it can also be fitted with a bassinet for newborns.
