Buying a Double Pushchair From Birth A double pushchair is an excellent option for those who enjoy long walks with your toddler, and are planning to have an additional child. There are a variety of options to choose from. The majority of tandem buggies can adapt to a variety of configurations. For instance, some come with seats that are reversible, allowing siblings to face each other or you. Size If you're buying a double pushchair from birth it's worth bearing in mind that they are generally larger than single buggies. You should make sure that your buggy can fit into the doors of your home and is able to easily maneuver up and over stairs and kerbs. Double strollers typically come in two basic forms such as tandem and side-byside. Tandem buggies can be a good choice for parents with twins. Side-by-side strollers are suitable for children of all ages and can be converted to a double-sized stroller by adding seating. Most tandem buggies are built with seats facing one another. They also offer a variety of seat configurations allowing your children to see each other while they ride. However, if your children are of a similar age to get along (or at least not fight over who has the best seat!) then you may discover that they're more comfortable together rather than facing each other. A great choice for families with twins or younger siblings who need to sit together is the iCandy Venus. This stylish, budget-friendly buggy can also be used in conjunction with an infant car seat so that it can grow along with your family. iCandy comes with extra accessories, such as fleecy liners, to ensure that your baby stays warm and snug in their cocoons. Another great option for growing families is the Egg2. This stylish pushchair is a popular choice for image-conscious parents. It can be used as a single unit or in a double configuration thanks to its flexible frame, which has adaptors to fit a seat or carrycot. It's not the most affordable double stroller, however it does come with distinctive features that distinguish it from competitors, including a large shopping basket that is placed behind the seat when it is in the parent-facing position. Style Double buggies are generally larger and heavier. If you are planning to purchase a buggie that you intend to be using for a long time be aware of this. They have more storage space and a larger basket. They also typically feature seating that is facing the parent, with an extendable sunshade and the peekaboo window, aswell with seats that recline independently. Some models have an adjustable foot and leg rest that can be adjusted to ease any discomfort that is caused by long walking or prolonged periods of sitting. The most popular double buggy styles include side-by-sides and tandems. Tandems are designed with the children sitting side-by-side with the same view. This can help avoid sibling rivalries about where to sit. They're not foolproof and children can still kick or punch each other while riding. Side-by-sides are a classic design, with two fixed seats that are affixed to one frame for a stroller. They might not have as many configurations, and they're usually ideal for babies who have mastered sitting without assistance but don't need the back support of an infant car seat. If you're looking for a lightweight double from birth Our lab experts recommend the Cybex Venus. This model is cleverly designed to expand widthways to convert from mono to twin mode, allowing either two or one carrycot and/or infant seats. The compact folding design comes with a large shopping basket, front and rear suspension, and a spacious shopping bag for a smoother ride. The seats include the RumbleSeat are padded and comfortable. They also have adjustable leg and footrests. They also come with a generous UPF 50+ canopy that offers plenty of shade. The Baby Jogger City Mini GT2 is a different good value option. Like the Venus, it's a side-by-side pushchair that is able to be configured to fit your family. It can accommodate a single infant car seat and can be paired with the Baby Jogger Glider Board for an additional passenger (though it limits the use to twins). The seat can recline independently, and the City Mini GT2 features some of the most nimble handling among double buggies, with testers reporting it's easy to maneuver through kerbs and up and down. Comfort The fabric and padding of the seat are suitable for children. In addition, the UPF 50+ canopy are long enough to provide shade and a cute peekaboo feature. The seat reclines in multiple positions, too, which our testers appreciated. The only downside is that the fold isn't as compact as some other models, but our lab experts believe it is easy to open and close. Double strollers are traditionally heavier, bulkier and more expensive than single buggies, however they're a great investment for families with two children who are close in age (generally less than 4 years old). They're likely to be used for several years, so choose the best brand you can count on to last for a long time and that will keep its value for a long time. Tandem buggies start life as one pushchair. They come with adaptors that let you add a second seat, carrycot or (in certain cases) car seats to the frame. Some are fixed doubles while others, such as this one made by Leclerc can be converted to a side-by-side configuration when your children are old enough. While a side-by-side is generally larger than other types of double buggy It can be a bit easier to move between kerbs since the weight is spread more evenly. However, it's not foolproof to avoid sibling fights and children in the same seat may kick or punch each other when they ride. A front-facing tandem could be an excellent alternative to a side-by-side model for older children. It also decreases the possibility of sibling rivalries as your kids are not directly facing eachother. Some children may feel excluded when a tandem faces towards the front, since they don't have the same perspective. The egg2 is a chic, modern product with an affordable price. Our testers liked how easy it was to push but wished that it had more storage. They also wanted the handlebars were more ergonomic. It is suitable from birth and can be used in twin mode from newborn, or as a 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 available, however it is competitive in cost and an excellent resale. Storage If you have more than one child, a double pushchair from birth will make life much easier when out and out and about. There are a variety of double strollers available from tandems to side-by-sides and tandems in different styles and colours. But, you must think carefully about your family's needs and what features are important to you prior making a purchase. By evaluating your needs, you can narrow down your choices and select the best double pram. A quality double buggy must be nimble and easy to use. This is especially important when you live in an urban area and you require a double buggy that can navigate busy streets and fit through doorways that are narrow to go shopping or out for lunch. Most of the best double buggies come with suspension that softens the impact of bumps and uneven surfaces. They also come with recline features to allow your child to take a nap. The seats should be able to adjust foot and leg rests, a UPF 50+ canopy with peekaboo window, and comfortable straps and buckles. When choosing a double stroller it is important to consider how compact the stroller can be when folded. twin strollers for newborns are designed to fold up into a compact size that is easy to carry and fit in small spaces like cupboards. Others may be slightly bulkier but they'll still be simple to transport and store. If you're on the tight end of your budget, you can find double strollers for sale at an affordable price. For example, the Cybex Influencer can be used as a single or a double, and it includes a basket that sits underneath the seat in a parent-facing position. It is light, folds flat, and comes with a high resale value. The UPPAbaby Vista is also a good choice for families as it can be configured with different seating arrangements and can accommodate two infant car seats. It comes with reversible seats to allow your children to face each other or the world and it can be fitted with a bassinet for newborns.
