Buying a Double Pram Pushchair

A double pram pushchair is the best option for parents who have more than one child. They're typically convertible, which means you can attach a bassinet, another seat, or even a car capsule.

This sleek and light pram can be converted to a twin with a clever frame that can be expanded in width. It also fits two infant seats or carrycots and comes with a massive UPF 50+ canopy, with windows that peek out.

Comfort

A double pram pushchair can be a good investment if you are expecting a new baby or the toddler has already become a walker. You might end up taking the pushchair on long family walks or even day excursions. It's crucial to keep in mind that not every double pram is created equal and it's essential to select the one that is best suited to your needs.

Double prams that are side by side provide two seats next to each other, so that your children can see each other and interact whilst on a walk. However, they are generally larger than single prams and, therefore, may not pass through some doors or be difficult to maneuver on busy footpaths or in shopping centers. They also weigh more when folded.

Tandem (in-line) double prams are slightly easier to manoeuvre but not as narrow as single prams. They can be more difficult to fold as the seat is usually further away from the handle, and they might have more components to assemble 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 choose a convertible double pram in order to future-proof their purchase and have the option of using it in single or double mode depending on your family's requirements.

For many parents, the style of their double pram pushchair is an important factor to consider. There are a variety of fashionable and practical options to meet the needs of every person.

A side-by-side pram with two fixed seats is a popular choice for parents of children of the same age. These are usually narrower than tandem and in-line double prams which makes them easier to maneuver through doors and on busy streets or in shops. You can use them with carrycots or car seats should you prefer.

Another option is a single-to-double pram conversion kit which lets you convert your existing pushchair into double one by the addition of a second seat.

Non-convertible side by side double prams can be an excellent option, particularly for families with children who are close to their age. However, it's worth bearing in mind that these types of prams are usually wider than other double buggies, and can be difficult to manoeuvre on busy footpaths as well as up and down kerbs.
