Many models also offer recliners that lie flat and can be used with infant car seats. Some even convert to single mode, like with the egg2 Pushchair that's loved for its style and versatility. Side by Side Side-by-side strollers are an excellent option for families with twins or siblings of different age groups. They typically have two fixed seats and one canopy. They are also larger than inline buggy so that both children can see the same thing. They are simple to maneuver and even come with front and back suspensions to help with traversing kerbs or bumps.

They are also ideal for jogging, and can handle rough terrain. The seats provide plenty of room for your children to sit comfortably. Buggies come in a range of colors and styles to suit your family's tastes. Some models come with additional accessories to help keep your baby comfortable.

It's also extremely versatile, and you can use it with two or one infant car seats.

This model can also be used in tandem mode, putting one child seated on the top of another. It's a great option if you have sleepy newborns who you don't want to disrupt their sleep. The seat is placed one ahead of the other in this setup, so it can be difficult for toddlers to keep from distracting one another when you're out and out and about. This type of pushchair usually comes with a cushioned main seat that is able to recline completely, so it's suitable for infants. A lot of models have a taller sitting position, with a more upright backrest in the back for older children, and it's typically possible to arrange the seats to be oriented so that they are facing one another or face each other, depending on the style of the buggy.

Lightweight The most double pushchairs that are lightweight are agile compact and simple to use. They're usually made of a sturdy aluminum frame, and some come with air-filled wheels that allow them to move over rough surfaces. They can also have a one-handed fold and handy shoulder straps to make them more convenient to carry. You could consider adding additional accessories like the foot muff, sunshade or a rain cover. The Cybex Mios is a lightweight double stroller with a low price. It's a traveling system that can be used as a light stroller, as well as a fully-functional travel system.

It features an elegant and sleek frame, with large wheels on the back to withstand rough terrain. It's also great for jogging. The double mode can make it a bit too long, and there is no storage underneath the seat. When comparing double pushchairs, take into consideration the weight of each seat as well as the frame and suspension. The heavier the pushchair is, the more difficult it will be to push. This is particularly true on uneven surfaces. Check the dimensions of the folding and whether or not you are able to remove the seats, which makes it smaller. Check for features like an easy one-handed fold which test-run tester Kirstie described as “genius” and a useful strap to sling over your shoulders. You can also choose a tandem double stroller that places the children one behind another. double pram and pushchair Pushchairs And Prams 's not as easy to maneuver as a side-by-side, but it's still a viable option for many families and could be more suitable for older toddlers.

There are a variety of comfortable options available on the market. There are plenty of options for families, whether you're searching for a side-by- side model that can fit both a carrycot and a seat or a tandem model with an rear and front seat that can be swapped. In addition to buckles, straps with padding and headrests, search for seats with multiple recline positions and adjustable calf rests. Typically, these are operated with one-handed buttons that are accessible from the back of the seat (though in our labs this could be a little fiddly for parents with small hands). Some of the top double pushchairs also offer an enormous UPF 50+ sun canopy that has magnetic peekaboo windows as well as an easy-to-use hood extender that can protect your children from harmful UV rays. Convertible Doubles You can save money by purchasing an infant stroller that can be converted from single to dual mode as your child develops. The egg2, for example is a fashionable option that can be used in conjunction with the toddler seat that comes with it or a baby carrier from birth. It comes with a second RumbleSeat for older siblings. Its reclining seats and large, comfy carrycots are particularly well-received by testers at home who love how much it can expand with your family. On the other side, if you're looking for a budget-friendly option that will last from birth until toddlerhood, check out the iCandy Venus. It includes a footmuff as well as a seat, but it can be transformed into a twin-sized pram by using the brand's infant Cocoons (available at a price of just PS59). Our labs liked the ease of being able to switch between configurations. They also found the directions to be clear and straightforward however it might require some time. Some double pushchairs only allow you to place your children side-by-side and are generally oriented towards the world however there are a few exceptions like the Bugaboo Donkey and Mountain Buggy Duet that can be set up to have both front and rear facing seating (though this will increase the overall dimensions of the chassis). Tandems are usually more maneuverable through kerbs, but they can be difficult to navigate through narrow aisles and doorways.
