Buying a Double Pram Pushchair

A double pram pushchair is the ideal option for parents who have more than one child. They are usually convertible, allowing you to connect a bassinet, a second seat, or even a car capsule.

This stylish and lightweight pram can be transformed into a twin using a clever frame that expands in size. It can also accommodate two carrycots, infant seats or a stroller. The canopy is UPF 50+ and has windows that can be seen from afar.

Comfort

If you're planning to have a second child or your toddler is a walker and you've found yourself taking family walks or on full-day outings with them, a double pram pushchair could be an essential investment for you. It is important to keep in mind that not all double prams are created equal and you should select the right one to suit your lifestyle.

Double prams that have side by side seats allow your children to interact and see each other while walking. However, they are typically larger than single prams, and, therefore, may not fit through certain doors or be difficult to maneuver on busy streets and in shopping centres. They also weigh more when folded.

Tandem double prams (in-line) are easier to maneuver, however they aren't as narrow. They are more difficult to fold as the seat is typically further away from the handle. Additionally, they could require more parts when you are ready to use them. They also cost more than a double side by side pram.

Some parents who are first-time parents opt for a double convertible pram for newborn as a way to ensure their purchase and use it in a double or single mode, depending on the needs of your family.
