Does this double exist?

I'm sure I've seen a double pushchair that had 2 seats in tandem that could be faced either way or one could be a infant car seat and one a seat? I can't find it now! If I have imagined this exists what double would be best for a 2yo and a newborn?

I like parent facing, want a carseat to attach to it, public transport isn't an issue, no stairs to carry it up, have big car, budget is probably £600ish but there is movement and I don't mind second hand.

Thank you in advance. :)

One option is the Baby Jogger City Select. I have only used it with twins but the seating flexibility is great. It has become too heavy though now they're 18 months.

You need the baby jogger city select. Does everything, I love mine and still use it on days out. Dc are 3.2 and 22 months

Will look at those two, thank you. I have found the OBaby Zoom but it looks huge!

The britax b-dual I have one. Baby can go in the bottom from birth. And so many combinations. And can walk normally and not kick the bottom seat.

I have the B-Smart at the moment and I've liked it but the B-Dual second seat looks so low? Could a child touch the wheels or the ground from that seat?

The City Select second seat looks quite low aswell. Nowhere arouns here stocks either else I'd go and try them!

If the combinations and reclines matter more to you then the select, zoom, brevi ovo twin, maybe importing a kolcraft tandem from amazon.com or off ebay are your thing.

If you think you might rather trade off a few less options for a smaller package that still has one parent facing seat then the oyster max and smyths toys dimples duo both have the ability to parent face the newborn in the top seat with the toddler forward facing below. You can do this at a push with the b dual but they are all somewhat dependent on the lower child being okay with the upper seat relatively near their face.

The other option is a longer list of tandems that parent face in single mode but not double - icandy peach and apple2pear, jane twone, p&t promenade etc.

I am missing things, there are more models but essentially imo seating positions and increased length/more difficult to turn and tip, less seating positions, closer together seats, shorter package, somewhat easier to push or forward facing only but the lightest of the lot to push. Just depends on what you want most Grin

alliwant the b-dual 2nd seat isnt that low to the ground. And the wheels do have guards. The 2nd seat is quite large so would be a stretch for them to touch the ground when strapped in. I put my 5yo (sen) in the bottom seat, strapped in at the waist and she hasn't touched the ground or the wheels and she is the type of child to do it if she could

i had a m&p duette takes two seat units also you can also use a car seat or a carry cot. it is long but i loved it.

I think the B-Dual or Oyster Max are good for your age gap and requirements.
