Choosing a Double Pushchair Twin

When you have twins, you'll need a double pushchair to take them from A to B. Our range comprises of twin prams as well as double buggies with various configurations to suit your family requirements.

Choose a foldable stroller that folds with one step and is easy to carry into your boot. You might also want a lightweight design, especially in high traffic streets.

Side-by-Side

This is the most popular double pushchair. It usually seats two children side-by-side. They are generally wider than single pushchairs, which means they are less agile on footpaths and can be a bit difficult to navigate up and down the kerbs with a car attached. However, the extra width does mean that they're generally easier to navigate through doors and are more evenly distributed making them less burdensome to carry around on your back.

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

The Bugaboo Donkey 5 is a great illustration of this. In Twin Mode, you can place the rear seat next to the carrycot. This allows you to create an entirely enclosed twin room and is perfect for babies. The pram set also comes with a number of really neat accessories, including newborn cocoons which can be put on face either way (for twin-facing prams) or facing towards the front (for a normal single). It's not as light as some other options, but it's really cleverly constructed.

Lightweight

Cybex is known for its innovative pushchairs, and the single-to double is no exception. The frame can be expanded to accommodate another seat. You can use the pushchair as twins from birth by putting in two newborn cocoons, each costing PS59. These cocoons are enclosed and create lie-flat spaces. It can also be used in a mono mode with one child, thanks to a large shopping basket that sits behind the seat. And it has front and rear suspension to tackle bumps and uneven surfaces more easily. Our reviewers picked this car seat pram as their top choice.

Available in a range of fashionable colors.

Tandem

If you're planning to have twins, you want a tandem pushchair that permits the children to be seated close to each other and be able to see each other. These are great for things such as visiting the zoo since the children will be able to look at all the animals together. These are also great for parents who need to watch both their toddler and their baby at the same time.

Some tandem pushchairs provide ultra flexibility as they can convert back to single mode. This is particularly beneficial when you are planning to have more children than two (or if your eldest child doesn't require a buggy any longer). This means you won't have an empty pushchair to store away which can be expensive.

For example the Cybex Venus can be used in both mono and double mode, and features a clever frame that opens wide to accommodate a second seat. It's not the lightest of pushchairs, however it comes with a large shopping basket which is located behind the front seat in double mode (and behind the seat when it's mono mode). The seats can be positioned in a way that they face each other or higher up to observe what the other 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 travel pram 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, thanks to a four-wheel suspension as well as wide rear wheels.

Another benefit of a tandem pushchair is that it can often take two carrycots, or a car seat and a buggy seat. You can save money by establishing a travel system at the beginning pram and car seat avoiding separate purchases. It's important to keep in mind, however, that tandems can be heavier and longer than single pushchairs and can feel less stable in bumping into kerbs or over uneven surfaces. These pushchairs (https://led74.ru/bitrix/redirect.php?goto=Https://www.pushchairsandprams.uk/) also need to be dismantled in order to fit into cars.
