Tandem

The news that you're expecting the birth of a child is one of the most exciting events in your life. After the excitement wears off road double buggy and the reality of the situation begins to set in, you'll be faced with a variety of decisions regarding how to prepare your family. The proper stroller or pram is among the most crucial considerations.

Tandem prams, also referred to as "in-line" double prams are a classic design with two bassinets or seats placed side by side. The front seat is typically padded and reclines to a flat position, making it suitable for newborns, while the second seat is more upright and can accommodate toddlers from around three years of age. Some models let you choose whether your children look at each other or outwards. Many tandems can be converted into one pushchair once your oldest child is no longer required to have the second seat.

In terms of cost the tandem is cheaper than a twin pushchair and can be an excellent choice for parents who want to save money but not compromising on safety or convenience. However, a drawback of a tandem is that it could feel long and heavy to steer, especially when you're bumping up or down kerbs. Additionally, it is often less stable than a twin pram, particularly if the older child is seated in the front. A tandem can also be difficult to get onto public transport and can be difficult to maneuver on narrow roads.

The iCandy Peach, a popular model with a focus on image, is a great choice for parents with one child who want a sleeker design. However the tandem mode can make it feel a bit heavy and long to push. It has a clever frame that can be expanded to accommodate the second seat, and can be used with multiple combinations of carrycots, buggy seats and car seats (two at once or separately). The iCandy Wave tandem is another lightweight option that's user-friendly and compatible with a range of car seats or carrycots.

Side by side

There are many things to take into consideration when selecting a double buggy from birth pram or pushchair. There are a variety of configuration options to choose from, regardless of whether you're buying for twins or close-in-age siblings. Tandem prams, also referred to as side-by-side prams are popular options because they can be configured so that the infant is able to sit in the bassinet on top while the older child or toddler is seated in the second seat.

Certain models come with reversible seats which allow you to alter the configuration for your family throughout the infant and toddler years. This allows you to see your children at all times, and allows them to interact when they walk.

Tandem prams are jogging buggies as well as all-terrain buggies. They are great for outdoor excursions, such as to the park. These are also good for narrow aisles or checkouts in supermarkets and shops, as they are more compact.

The Redsbaby JIVE3 pram for example can be used in tandem mode from birth, with the addition of an Rumble seat. (PS249) Then, you can switch to the single mode once your baby gets used to the rumble seat, or use the car capsule adaptors (PS53) to transform it into a travel system from infant to toddler.

Another alternative is the Side by Side Pram from Babybee. This double side-byside pram comes in a variety of colors and is designed with a modern design. It is designed to be used from the moment of birth, you can include the LUNA Cocoon for newborns (PS262) and the LUNA Infant Seats (PS53 each).

You can fit up to three children on the seat board, or two toddlers in the seats and still have enough space to carry shopping bags. Accessories like rain covers are also available. Convertible double strollers are generally heavier and larger than single pushchairs because they are designed to accommodate two or more children. The Graco Modes Nest2Grow convertible is an example of an affordable convertible that is simple to use. However, our test participants thought it was quite heavy for the price.

Some convertible double strollers like the Baby Jogger City Select 2 have a carrycot that is suitable for babies. This helps to reduce the size of the double stroller when it is not in use and makes it more compact. The City Select's clever single-handed folding impressed our test participants, but it takes some practice. It's also extremely responsive and nimble even despite its size.

Another option that is affordable is the Cybex Mockingbird Single-to-Double Stroller. It can be converted from a parent-facing infant car seat to a forward-facing toddler car seat and the bassinet option is a great choice for infants (although keep in mind that infants under four months old shouldn't use strollers to sleep due to the risk of positional asphyxia).

If you're looking for more flexibility Consider a convertible that has dual modes such as the iCandy Peach. It's a compact double buggy which can accommodate two children in a row, but it can also be used as a tandem, with the addition of a second-seat kit and rider board. It feels agile and responsive, and our test users liked its sleek design. It's not as light as the other pushchairs on our list however, it comes with a large shopping basket which is ideal for parents with bags full of toys and groceries.

Lightweight

Convertible double strollers are a great alternative for parents who have one child and are expecting the arrival of a second. The iCandy Peach can be converted from a single pushchair to a double with the addition of a toddler's seat or the brand's carrycot (which is ideal for overnight sleeping). The seats are extremely comfortable and our testers appreciate that they can be reclined in a variety of positions. They also love the fact that the canopy has an open window that can be seen from afar and has UPF 50+ protection. The rear seat can be raised to provide a standing platform for a child to climb on and off, so they can reach things in the shopping basket.

Cher said that the only negative aspect of the iCandy Peach was its weight. But she felt this was offset by the fact that it is easy to move and offers plenty of storage space, including two cup holders for parents and their children as well as seat-back pockets and an enormous basket underneath the seat. She also liked the fact that the seats are reversible, so they can be set to face one another for siblings that want to talk and get together when out and out and about.

The Delta Children LX Side-by-Side Stroller is a smaller model and still impressive. It weighs just 18 pounds, is lightweight and features an auto-standing fold, making it easy to transport or put in your trunk. Parents are impressed by the quality of the materials and workmanship and the low price point. The only negatives are that the seats don't recline as well as other models we have tested and the rear seat isn't as visible due to its position - it is raised higher than the front seat.

Another popular choice is the Joolz Geo 3, which is slim, sleek and easy to steer, with an attractive design and a lifetime guarantee. While they're smaller, side-by-side prams can still be wider than tandems and inline doubles. This can make them difficult to maneuver on busy footpaths and in shops. They are also shorter, making them more maneuverable in tight spaces.
