What to Look For in a Twin Pushchair

If you have two kids or babies of the same age, a twin pushchair can be a good option. They provide two spaces for your children and are usually equipped with comfortable carrycots for newborns as well as compatibility with car seats for older toddlers.

Be on the lookout for models that have easy-to use push handles and a GIANT basket. Add-ons like cup holders and snack trays for parents and kids are also useful.

Tandem

The classic tandem twin pushchair is side-by-side and allows both children to face one the other. Some parents prefer this style because it's less likely to cause siblings to argue over which position. It's also a great alternative for places such as the Zoo, where both children can easily view each their fellow. Tandems are often more spacious than single buggys but they tend to be wider and can feel long when they are pushed.

Some twin buggies are designed as a single pushchair but can be adapted to accommodate two seats or carrycots by using an adapter. This can be an affordable option for families with more than one child, and it means that you don't have to buy a new buggy when your older child outgrows it. However, it may not be a good option for twins in the early months as they'll need to be the same age and weight.

The jogger is another type of twin buggy that can be used as a double or single buggy that can be able to accommodate two car seats. It has an air-filled tyre and a swivel-forward steering wheel and can be used on off-road trails. It is a little heavier than other models however the extra weight is the added durability.

The Phil & Ted Sport Double Jogger can be used with the seat in the main compartment or with a clever double kit that is attached directly to the single seat. It has one swivel wheel at the front and an all-wheel suspension which makes it more stable than other joggers that we tested. It also works with a variety of car seats.

This slim stroller, which is single to double, is perfect for urban adventures. Its simple maneuverability and large basket make it ideal for urban adventures. It has a UPF50and sun canopy that can be extended to provide real shade, and a peekaboo window in the front seat to let both children enjoy the view. The model doesn't have an inbuilt recline, but it can be used in conjunction with a Roma Gemini carrycot (PS100 each) to create a lay-flat area for infants and newborns. It can also be fitted with a toddler seat making it an all-seater.

Convertible

A convertible twin pushchair is a flexible option that lets you alter the layout as your kids get older. It starts out as an individual pram, but it has adaptors that can be attached to the frame for a second seat, a carrycot or car seat. These models are wider than standard buggy models, however, they can be inserted through doors and are much easier to move around roads. They also allow you to use a toddler seat as well as an infant car seat or two carrycots that are side-by-side, which works well for siblings of various ages.

The iCandy Peach 7 double buggy is a great example of this type. It can be set up in a variety of ways, including seats, car seats and carrycots. Our test team loved the way it is slim and light is for a double-seater, as well as offering a spacious, sturdy and comfortable ride for kids. The simple and easy one-handed reclining mechanism on the back of the seat unit also makes it easy for your child to lay flat.

The Uppababy Vista V2 is another example of a convertible twin stroller (articlescad.com) with seats that can be removed and can be set up to face forward or backward which makes it suitable for twins of all ages. The RumbleSeat and PiggyBack riding boards which attach to the middle frame can accommodate the third child.

Multiple configurations

The seating configuration of your twin pushchair may significantly affect its performance. Look out for multiple options so that you can switch up the direction your children's seats according to their mood or the circumstances and continue to use them as they develop. The Bugaboo Donkey 5 Twin, for example, is incredibly versatile, with reversible seats and bassinet configurations that allow siblings to face one another either with you or the exciting road ahead. The frame can be expanded to accommodate a second seat. It is able to be used in Mono or Double mode. A variety of accessories are available for both configurations.

A popular choice of configuration for new parents is the side-by-side arrangement where one child sits behind the other. This type of twin pushchair has the benefit of giving both children the same view. It generally narrower than a single pushchair, which makes it easier to navigate in the public transportation system and in doors. The Cybex gazelle S pushchair, for instance offers more than 20 options which means you can pick the best twin stroller set-up for your child. It can also be used with two car seats or carrycots in tandem mode.

The Valco Jump Seat attachment allows you to convert this side-by-side double buggy, designed for twins, into an jogger. Both kids are facing towards the front. This allows you to keep pace with your running partner while keeping the kids happy.

In general twin pushchairs tend to be a little heavier than single pushchairs because they have additional features like more spacious baskets and seats that are padded, so consider your lifestyle before choosing this type of stroller. You may also find that they're a bit more difficult to maneuver than a single pushchair, and you may have to purchase additional accessories, such as sunshades or rain covers to shield your twins from the elements.

It's equally important to test the quality of a double pushchair, as it is to ensure that it's in line with your budget and lifestyle. To get the most value for money, look for brands who place a high priority on sustainability and offer detailed information about their production methods. Joining online parenting groups or attending local events can help you gain important information on the most suitable twin pushchairs.

Storage

If you have twins, you'll need carry a lot. Find a car equipped with a huge undercarriage basket as well as numerous compartments and pockets to store your essentials. The storage areas should be easy to access even when the seats are in different positions. The UPPAbaby Vista 2 can carry twins or a toddler and a baby as well as include a 'PiggyBack' table for older children (PS120). The Roma Gemini is able to accommodate two infants using the cocoons that come with it (PS59 each). With the new design, you can put the cocoons facing either direction, or reverse. It has a convenient standing fold that makes it easy to keep in storage between use.
