Choosing a Double Pushchair Twin

You’ll need a double stroller in order to take your twins from A to B. Our range comprises of twin prams and double buggies in various configurations to suit your family requirements.

Choose a stroller which can be folded in just one step and then easily tucked away into your boot. You may also want lightweight designs that are easy to maneuver and navigate especially when you have busy roads to tackle.

Side-by-Side

They are the most popular type of double pushchair and usually can accommodate two children in a row. They are usually bigger than single pushchairs. This makes them less able to maneuver on footpaths. It is also difficult to move through kerbs with the car seat is in place. However the extra width means that they’re often a lot more comfortable to maneuver through doorways and are distributed more evenly making them easier to carry around on your back.

Many models can be used as early as birth as twin prams and will accommodate a carrycot or two car seats. Some models can be converted into one mode with a basket to the side (like the Cybex Venus).

The Bugaboo Donkey 5 is a excellent illustration of this. In twin pushchairs Mode, you can place the rear seat alongside the carrycot. This creates a fully enclosed space for twins and is perfect for infants. This pram is also equipped with a couple of really cool accessories, including the newborn cocoons, which can be put on the front or back (for twin-facing prams) or facing inwards (for a normal single). It’s not as lightweight as other options, but it’s very well thought out.

Lightweight

Cybex is a brand known for its innovation, and this single-to-double pushchair is no exception. The frame can be enlarged to accommodate another seat. It is possible to use the pushchair as twins from birth by putting in two cocoons for newborns that cost PS59 each. These cocoons are enclosed and create lie-flat spaces. The large shopping basket behind the seat can be used in mono mode for one child. And it has front and rear suspensions that can handle bumps and uneven surfaces more easily. The top choice from our reviewers.

Available in a range of fashionable colors.

Tandem

If you’re planning to have twins, you want a tandem pushchair travel system that permits the children to sit side by side, so they can look at each other. They are ideal for activities like going to the zoo because the kids will be able to look at all the animals together. They’re also ideal for parents who have to keep one eye on their toddler and the other on their child because they can see both of them simultaneously.

Some tandem pushchairs offer extreme versatility as they can change back to single mode. This is especially handy for families with more than two children (or just your eldest does not require a buggy anymore). This means you won’t be left with an empty pushchair with car seat that you need to store away, which can be costly.

For example the Cybex Venus can be used in double pram or mono mode, and features a clever frame that expands widthways to accommodate an extra seat. This isn’t the lightest of pushchairs, but it does come with a large basket for shopping which is located behind the front seat when in double mode (and in the back of the seat in mono mode). The seats can either be set up so that they face each the other or higher to see what each is doing.

Other double tandem pushchairs, such as the Joolz Geo 3, are equipped to place one on top of the other or side by side. They are sleek and compact frame that makes them easier to navigate through doorways and aisles of supermarkets and some models can even be used as a jogging or stroller on rough terrain due to a four-wheel suspension as well as large rear wheels.

A tandem pushchair can be used to carry two carrycots, or a car and buggy seat. This allows you to create a travel system right from the outset and save money on separate purchases. Keep in mind that tandems are more heavy and longer, and can feel less stable when bumping up kerbs and going over uneven surfaces. They also have to be dismantled in order to fit into cars.
