Buying a
Double Pram and PushchairIf your family is growing with the birth of a new child or you have two children close in age, a double stroller is an ideal choice. Joolz has a variety of single prams which can transform into double buggies according to your needs.
Double prams with side-by-side seating allow your children to face one another, often towards the world. Some also offer seats that are facing parents.
Safety
The safety of your children is a top consideration when choosing the double pram or pushchair. Make sure the model you choose includes the proper padding as well as a safety harness, and recline places for both seats. Think about a footrest or sun canopy for added protection and comfort.
Your family's lifestyle will influence which double stroller or pushchair is the best for you. If you're a crowded urban family, you'll likely prefer a stroller that can navigate city streets and fit through narrow doorways for those lunchtimes or shopping trips with your kids in tow.
You can choose a double pram or pushchair that lets your children sit in a row. This can encourage socialization among siblings. You can also opt for a twin pushchair which can accommodate two carrycots as well as seat units. It is perfect for infants or toddlers who are similar in age.
Many double pushchairs and double prams come with a parent facing option, which can give peace of mind for parents by making it easier to examine their baby. Some models even come with additional padding to ensure your child's comfort as well as ergonomic support to keep their spine healthy.
Families who enjoy outdoor adventures will also love a stroller that can be reversible. This allows your children to change the direction and scenery of their journey, to ensure that they don't get bored.
You'll need to check whether the pushchair can be folded flat so that you can store it in your car and take it out. It is also important to ensure whether the model you select will fit through important doorways at home. If you're not sure, measure your door width and compare it to the size of the pram.
Comfort
If you have a toddler and you are expecting a second child then purchasing a double pram is probably one of the most essential baby products you'll require. Double prams are ideal for family outings, such as long walks or day excursions.
When you are choosing a double stroller, it's important to check that the seats are comfortable for your baby with padded harnesses, and recline to a fully flat position so that they can sleep comfortably throughout the day. Look out for a large shopping basket, seats-back pockets, adjustable handlebars and a range of colors to fit your style. Some double prams have a shade to shield your children from sun's rays and extendable rain covers to keep them dry during rainy days.
A tandem
travel pram or a side-by-side double pram is an excellent choice if you'd like your children to face each other while they ride or explore the world around them. Many double prams that are side by side are suitable from birth and offer options for both carrying a carrycot or toddler seat in the rear and an infant car seat in the front.
Tandem prams can be used by siblings who are the same age or even with a huge age gap. They usually include two toddler seats that can be set either facing forward or parent facing and often have adjustable sun canopies and adapters to toddler car seats as well.

They can be used right from birth with the use of an adapter for car seats and have bassinets or seats for prams placed in an 'in-line' fashion in which one is placed behind the other.

When it comes to cleaning your pushchair, ensure that the fabric's washability in the event that it is.
