Buying a Double Pushchair From Birth

A double pushchair is a great option for those who enjoy long walks with your toddler and plan to have an additional child. There are numerous options to choose from.

The majority of tandem buggies are set up in a variety of ways. For instance, some come with seats that can be reversed to let your siblings face each other or to the side.

Size

It is important to keep in mind that double buggies are typically larger than single buggies. That's why you need to ensure that your chosen buggy fits through your home's doorways and can easily maneuver up and down kerbs and steps.

Double strollers come in two main designs which are tandem and side by side. Tandem buggies can be a great option for parents of twins, whereas side-by-side strollers can be used with children of different ages and often transform into single-to-double pushchairs by adding a seat or carrycot to the frame.

Most tandem buggies are built with the seats facing one another and offer multiple seat configurations, permitting your children to view each other while they ride. However, if your kids are of a similar age to be able to coexist (or at least not argue over who has the best seat!) You may find that they prefer facing each other than sitting next to one another.

A great option for families with twins or younger siblings that need to sit together is the iCandy Venus. This beautiful, affordable buggy can also be used with an infant car seat so that it can grow along with your family. To make sure your newborns are warm and cozy in their cocoons, iCandy also comes with additional accessories that other brands charge for separately, like fleecy liners.

Egg2 is another great option for families growing. This sleek pushchair is a popular choice for image-conscious parents. It can be used as a single unit or as a double due to its movable frame that has adaptors available to fit a seat or a carrycot. It's not the cheapest double stroller, but it has some unique features which make it stand out from its competitors. One of these is a large basket that sits behind seat when in parent-facing mode.

Style

Double buggies tend to be larger and heavier. If you are planning to purchase one that you intend to keep for a long period of time be aware of this. However, they do provide more storage space, often with a bigger basket for shopping. These seats also come with a parent facing seat and a sunshade that could be extended, as well as an open window. They might also have seats that can recline independently. Some even have a built-in adjustable leg and foot rest which eases any discomfort that is caused by long walks or prolonged periods of sitting.

The most popular double buggy designs are side-by-sides and tandems. Tandems are designed to have the children seated side-by-side and sharing the same view. This helps avoid sibling rivalries about where to sit. They're not foolproof and children can still kick or punch one another when they ride. Side-by-sides are a classic design, with two fixed seats that are affixed to a single-wide stroller frame. They don't offer the same number of configurations and are generally recommended for infants who have mastered unassisted sitting but don't need the back support of a car seat.

The seats, including the RumbleSeat are cushioned and comfortable, as well as adjustable footrests and leg rests. They also come with large UPF 50+ canopy, which provides plenty of shade.

Comfort

The padding and fabric of the seat are both suitable for children. Additionally, the UPF 50+ canopies are long enough to offer shade, and also have the cute peekaboo feature.

Double strollers are generally heavier, bulkier and more expensive than single buggies. However, they're an essential investment for families with two kids who are similar in age (generally under 4). Choose a brand that is designed to last for many years and keep its value.

Tandem buggies are initially one pushchair. They come with adaptors that allow you to add another seat, a carrycot, or (in certain cases) car seats to the frame. Some are fixed doubles, while others - like this one from Leclerc can be converted to a side-by-side arrangement when your children are ready for it.

While a side-byside is generally larger than other types of double buggy it is able to navigate between kerbs since the weight is distributed more evenly. It's not a guarantee to keep siblings from fighting. Children sharing the same seat may punch or kick each other while riding.

A front-facing tandem is an alternative to a side-byside model for older children and is less susceptible to squabbles between siblings since your children aren't directly facing each one another. It's important to remember that some kids may feel isolated or lonely when they're in a front-facing tandem since they don't have the same view of their surroundings.
