Why Nobody Cares About Double Pushchair From Birth

Buying a Double Pushchair From Birth

A double pushchair is a great option if you love long walks with your toddler and plan to have an additional child. There are many options available.

Most tandem buggies can adapt to a variety of configurations. For instance, some come with seats that are reversible, allowing siblings to face each other or you.

Size

If you're purchasing a double pushchair from birth it's important to keep in mind that they're usually bigger than single buggies. This is why you must ensure that the buggy you select is able to pass through your doorways and can easily maneuver through kerbs, and up and down steps.

Double strollers double strollers come in two different designs: tandem and side by side. Tandem buggies can be a great option for parents of twins, while side-by-side strollers can be used with children of different ages. They can often convert into single-to-double stroller with standing platform pushchairs simply by adding an extra seat or carrycot to the frame.

Most tandem buggies have seats that face one another and come in multiple configurations. This lets your children be able to see each other while riding. If your children are of the same age they may be able to get along or at the very least not argue about who gets the best seats. You may find they prefer sitting together rather than next to one another.

The iCandy Venus is a great option for families with twins, or children who require a seat. This stylish, budget-friendly buggy can also be used in conjunction with an infant car seat so that it can grow along with your family. iCandy includes extra accessories, such as fleecy liners, to ensure that your baby stays warm and snug in their cocoons.

Egg2 is a different option for families that are growing. This stylish stroller is a favorite among fashion-conscious parents. It can be used as a single or in a double thanks to its versatile frame that has adaptors available for adding a seat or carrycot. It's not the most affordable double stroller on the market but it does have some distinctive characteristics that differentiate it from other strollers, such as the large shopping basket that is placed behind the seat in the parent-facing position.

Style

The majority of double buggies tend to be heavier and bulkier than single models So keep that in mind if you're planning on buying one that will last for several years. They do have more storage space and a bigger basket. They typically also come with a parent-facing seat with an extendable sunshade as well as a peekaboo window, as well with seats that recline independently. Some models have an adjustable leg and foot rest that can be adjusted to relieve any discomfort caused by walking or prolonged periods of sitting.

Side-by-sides, and tandems are the most sought-after types of double buggy. Tandems are designed to have the children seated side-by-side, giving them the same perspective. This helps avoid siblings fighting over seating. But they're not 100% secure, and children are able to punch or kick each one another while riding. Side-by-side is more traditional and has two fixed seats that are mounted on a single stroller frame. They might not have as many configurations and are typically recommended for infants who have mastered unassisted sitting but don't require the back support of a car seat.

Our lab experts recommend the Cybex venus if you are looking for a lightweight, double from birth. This model is able to be changed from mono to twin mode by expanding widthways. It can be used to accommodate two or one infant seat and/or carrycots. It's also compact when folded and has a large shopping basket and front and rear suspension for a more comfortable ride. The seats and the optional RumbleSeat are padded and comfortable and come with adjustable foot and leg rests and large UPF 50+ canopies that offer plenty of shade.

The Baby Jogger City Mini GT2 is another good value option. Like the Venus one, it's a side by side pushchair that can be configured to meet the needs of your family. It is compatible with one car seat for infants and you can also add the Baby Jogger Glider Board for the third person (though this limits the usability to twins). The seat reclines independently, and the City Mini GT2 has some of the best handling among double buggies. Testers reported that it was easy to maneuver up and down kerbs.

Comfort

The padding and fabric are comfortable for both kids and adults and adults, and the UPF 50+ canopy is wide enough to offer real shade, and also offers a cute peekaboo window. The seat reclines in a variety of positions, too which our test subjects loved. The only drawback is that the fold isn't as small as other models, however our lab experts believe it can be opened and closed easily.

Double strollers are traditionally heavier and bulkier as well as costlier than single buggies, but they're a must-have for families with two kids who are close in age (generally under 4). They're also likely to be used for a number of years, so make sure you choose a quality brand that you can count on to last and which will retain its value well.

Tandem buggies start life as one pushchair. They come with adaptors that allow you to add another seat, a carrycot, or (in certain instances) car seats to the frame. Some are fixed doubles, but others, like this one by Leclerc can be changed into a side-by-side layout once your children are old enough.

A side-byside double buggy is generally larger than other types however it is much easier to maneuver over kerbs as the weight is distributed more evenly. But it's not 100% reliable to avoid sibling fights and children in the same seat can kick or punch one another while riding.

A front-facing tandem is a good alternative to a side by side model for older children. It also decreases the likelihood of sibling fights as your kids are not directly facing each other. It's important to note that some kids may feel lonely or disengaged when they're in a front-facing tandem as they won't have the same view of the world around them.

The egg2 has a sleek, modern design and an attractive price tag. Our test subjects loved how easy it is to push, but they would prefer it had more storage and that the handlebars were more comfortable. It is suitable from birth and can be used in twin mode as early as newborn, or as the combination of carrycot(s)/infant seats/car seat(s) for twins - it's the most flexible of our double buggies which is the reason it's been a MadeForMums favourite since 2009. It's not the most affordable double stroller on the market, but it is competitively priced and has excellent resale value.
