Guide To Double Pushchair From Birth: The Intermediate Guide To Double…

Buying a Double Pushchair From Birth

A stokke double stroller pushchair is an excellent option for those who enjoy long walks with your toddler and you are planning to have a second child. There are plenty of choices to choose from.

The majority of tandem buggies are configured in a variety of ways. For instance, some models have reversible seats that let siblings face each other or you.

Size

If you're buying a double pushchair from birth it's important to keep in mind that they are generally larger than single buggies. Make sure that your buggy can fit into the doors of your home and is capable of moving easily between stairs and kerbs.

Double strollers come in two main styles: tandem and side-by-side. Tandem buggies can be a great option for parents of twins, while side-by-side strollers can be used by children of different ages. They are often converted into single-to-double pushchairs simply by adding a seat or carrycot to the frame.

Most tandem buggies come with seats that face one another and come in various configurations. This allows your children to be able to see each other while riding. If your children are close enough in age to be able to get along (or at the very least not fight over who is the best seat!) You might find that they prefer facing each other than sitting next to one another.

A great choice for families with twins or younger siblings who need to sit side by side is the iCandy Venus. This beautiful, affordable buggy can also be used with an infant car seat, so it can grow with your family. iCandy comes with additional accessories, such as fleecy liners to ensure that your infants stay warm and snug in their cocoons.

Another great option for expanding families is the Egg2. This stylish pushchair, that is popular among parents who are a bit glam and want to look their best, can be used as a single stroller or double stroller thanks to its adaptors that allow you to add a seat or carrycot. It's not the least expensive double stroller, but it has some distinctive features that set it apart from other strollers, such as an enormous shopping basket that is placed behind the seat in the face-to-parent mode.

Style

Double buggies are generally heavier and bulkier. If you are planning to purchase one that you intend to keep for a long period of time, keep this in mind. They have more storage space, and a larger basket. These seats also come with a parent facing seat and a sunshade that could be extended and an open window. They may also have seats that can recline independently. Some even come with an adjustable leg and foot rest that eases any discomfort caused from long walks or long periods of sitting.

The most well-known double buggy styles are side-bysides and tandems. Tandems have the children positioned on opposite sides and give them the same view and may help avoid sibling arguments over who should sit where. However, they're not 100% secure, and children can kick or punch each on the other while they're riding. The side-by-side format is more traditional, with two fixed seats positioned on a single stroller frame. They may not offer as many configurations and are ideal for infants who can sit without assistance but don't require the back support offered by an infant car seat.

Our lab experts recommend the Cybex venus if you are looking for a lightweight, double from birth. This innovative model can be converted from mono to twin mode by expanding in width. It can accommodate either two or one infant seat or carrycots. It's also compact when folded and features a spacious shopping basket, as well as rear and front suspensions for smoother travel. The seats and the add-on RumbleSeat are cushioned and comfortable and come with adjustable foot and leg rests, as well as generous UPF 50+ canopy which provide plenty of shade.

The Baby Jogger City Mini GT2 is a different good value option. It's a two-in-one pushchair that's similar to the Venus. You can set it to suit your needs. The pushchair can be set up to accommodate twins or an infant seat. You can also include the Baby Jogger Glider Board as an additional child. The seat can recline independently and the City Mini GT2 has some of the best maneuverability among double buggies. Testers reported that it was easy to maneuver up and down kerbs.

Comfort

The padding and fabric of the seat are both suitable for children. Additionally, the UPF 50+ canopy are long enough to provide shade and have a cute peekaboo feature. The seat can recline in a variety of positions, which our testers loved. The only issue with this model is that it's not as compact as other models. However, our lab experts said it could be opened and closed with ease.

Double strollers are traditionally heavier and bulkier as well as costlier than single buggies. However, they're an essential investment for families with two children that are close in age (generally under 4). Select a brand that can last for a long time and will not lose its value.

Tandem buggies started out as one-person pushchairs, but they have adaptors which allow the addition of an additional seat, carrycot, or (in certain cases) the car seat to the frame. Some of them are fixed doubles, but others - such as this one made by Leclerc can be changed to a side-by-side arrangement when your children are ready for it.

While a side-byside is typically wider than other types of double buggy It can be a bit easier to maneuver up and down kerbs as the weight is spread more evenly. However, it's not a guarantee for avoiding sibling squabbles; kids in the same seat can kick or punch one another while riding.

A front-facing tandem can be an alternative to a traditional side-by-side model for older kids and can be less prone to squabbles between siblings since your children don't face each the 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 their surroundings.

The egg2 features a sleek modern design, a contemporary style and an attractive price tag. Our test subjects liked how easy to push, but they wished it had more storage. They also wished the handlebars were more comfortable. It is suitable from birth and can be used in twin mode as early as newborn or in the combination of carrycot(s)/infant seats or 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 cheapest double stroller on the market, but it is competitively priced and has a high potential for resales.
