Comfort

If you're planning to have a second child or your toddler is an avid walker and you've been taking family walks or on full-day outings with them a double pram pushchair might be an essential investment for you.

Side by side double prams provide two seats next to each other so that your children can view each other and engage with one another on a walk. They are generally larger than single prams, and might not be able to fit through certain doors. They may also be difficult to navigate on busy footpaths or in shopping malls. They are also generally bulkier when folded.

Tandem (in-line) double prams are a bit more maneuverable, but they aren't as narrow as single prams. They are more difficult to fold since the seat is typically further away from the handle. Additionally, they might require more parts when you are ready to use them. They also tend to be more expensive than a side-by-side double pram.

Some parents who are first-time parents choose a convertible double pram to ensure their purchase is secure for the future and have the option of using it in either single or double mode depending on your family's needs. However, they're usually quite large and bulky when folded and might not be suitable for your toddler as they grow out of their pram seat, so be careful to do some thorough research prior to purchasing.

The Venus, for example, is our top-selling twin pram as it can be used from birth with the addition of newborn cocoons (PS59 each) to create a lie-flat area for your baby.

Tandem prams are a different matter. They offer more seating flexibility and allow the child to stand or sit on a toddler board whilst the parent pushes them. However, they aren't 100% safe when it comes to fighting between siblings. It is recommended to avoid placing them in the same seat.
