Buying a Double Pram Pushchair
A double pram pushchair is a great option for parents with more than one child. They are usually convertible, which means you can attach a bassinet, second seat, or even a car capsule.
This sleek and light pram can be converted to a twin with a clever frame which expands in width. It also accommodates two infant seats or carrycots and comes with a massive UPF 50+ canopy with windows that peek out.
Comfort
If you’re planning to have a second child or your toddler is a walker and you’ve noticed that you’re taking family walks or long day outings with them, a double pram pushchair could be a must-have for you. However, it’s important to remember that not every double pram is alike and it’s crucial to choose the right one for your lifestyle.
Side by side double prams offer 2 seats next to each other so that your children can see each other and have fun while walking. However, they are generally larger than single prams pushchairs and thus may not be able to pass through some doors or be difficult to maneuver on crowded footpaths and in shopping centres. They also weigh more when folded.
Tandem double prams (in-line) are more convenient to maneuver, but aren’t as wide. They can be more difficult to fold because the seat is usually farther away from the handle and they might have more components to put together when you’re ready to use them again. They can also be more expensive than a side-by-side double pram.
Some parents who are first-time parents opt for a double convertible pram as a way to protect their purchase and use it in single or double mode, based on the needs of your family. They are usually quite large and bulky when folded, and may not suit your toddler once they’ve outgrown their seat. Do some research before purchasing.

Safety
To ensure that both children comfortable and safe when out, it’s crucial to select a double pushchair with padded harnesses and seats.

If you’re looking to pick a side-by-side double pram or one in front of the other there are lots of options to think about.
The most popular option is a convertible double pram. They start as a single pram but can later be combined with a second seat or carry cot/basintinet as well as infant car seats. These are ideal for parents with two children of similar ages and wish to ensure their purchase.
Tandem prams travel system, on the contrary, provide more flexibility in seating and space for the child to sit or stand while the parent pushes.

Style

These are often shorter than tandem or in-line double pushchairs making them easier to fit through doors and navigate crowded footpaths and in stores. They can be used in conjunction with car seats or carrycots when needed, based on your preference.
Another option is a single-to double pram conversion kit that allows you to turn your existing pushchair into a double one with just the addition of the second seat.

Double prams are a good choice for families with close-aged children. But, it’s important to keep in mind that these kinds of prams are generally larger than other double buggies, and can be difficult to maneuver on busy footpaths as well as up and down kerbs.
