The classic tandem twin pushchair lets both children to face each other. This is the preferred method of some parents who find it less likely to cause sibling squabbles over which side to sit in. It is also a good option for trips to places like the zoo, where both children can see each other easily. Tandems can be more spacious than single buggies. However, they are also more spacious and longer when they are being pushed.

Some twin stroller buggies begin life as single pushchairs and then can be extended to hold two seats or carrycots by putting in an adapter. This can be an affordable option for families that are expecting more than one child, and it means that you don't have to buy an entirely new buggy once your older child outgrows it. It might not be the most suitable option for twins in the early years, as they'll have to be the same weight and age.

Think about your lifestyle when selecting a twin pushchair. They tend to be heavier because they come with additional features like bigger baskets and padding for the seats. You may also find they're a little heavier than a single stroller, and you'll need purchase additional accessories, such as rain covers or sunshades in order to protect your twins.

It's equally important to assess the quality of a double pushchair. This is because it is to ensure that it fits into your budget and lifestyle.
