Choosing a Double Pushchair Twin
If you have twins, you'll require a double pushchair travel system (Read the Full Content) to take them from A to B. Our range includes a range of twin prams and double buggies that come in a variety of configurations to suit your family requirements.
Look for a stroller that can be folded in just one step and easily lifted into your car. You may also prefer a lightweight design that's easy to maneuver and navigate, particularly if you have busy roads to traverse.
Side-by-Side
These are the most common type of double pushchair and usually can accommodate two children together. They tend to be a bit wider than single pushchairs. This means they're less agile on footpaths and can be a bit difficult to navigate through kerbs with a car seat attached. However the extra width can mean that they're generally more comfortable to maneuver through doorways and are distributed more evenly making them less burdensome to carry on your back.
They can be used as a twin pram from the beginning and a lot of models will take both a carrycot or two car seats. Some models can be converted into a single mode with a basket to the side (like the Cybex Venus).
One of the best examples of this is the Bugaboo Donkey 5 which, in Twin Mode, allows you to fit the rear seat and carrycot side-by-side. This allows you to create a fully enclosed twin space, which is perfect for babies. This pram is also equipped with a couple of really neat accessories, such as the newborn cocoons that can be attached to the front or back (for a twin-facing pram) or facing forwards (for a normal single). It's not as light as some other options but it is very well thought out.
Lightweight
Cybex is known for innovation, and this single-to-double pushchair is no exception. The frame can be extended to accommodate another seat. You can use the pushchair as a twin from birth by putting in two cocoons for babies, each costing PS59. These cocoons are enclosed and create lie-flat spaces. The large basket of shopping behind the seat allows it to be used in mono mode for a single child. It has both front and rear suspensions that allows it to handle bumps and uneven surfaces with ease. Our reviewers selected this car as their top pick.
Available in a variety of stylish colors.
Tandem
If you're planning to have twins, you'll require a pushchair that is tandem. This will allow both children to sit together and see each one another. They are great for trips to the zoo as the children can look at the animals together. They're also perfect for parents who must keep one eye on their toddler and the other eye on their infant, as they can see both of them at the same time.
Some tandem pushchairs offer ultra versatility as they can change back to single mode. This is particularly beneficial if you plan to have more children than two (or when your oldest child does not require a buggy any longer). This means that you won't be left with an empty pushchair to put away and can be expensive.
The Cybex Venus, for example is a model that can be used in double or mono mode. The frame can be expanded to accommodate a second seat. It's not the lightest of pushchairs, but it offers an enormous shopping basket that is placed behind the front seat when in double mode (and in the back of the seat when it's mono mode). The seats can either be placed so that they face each opposite or higher up to observe what each is doing.
Other double tandem pushchairs such as the Joolz Geo 3 can seat one on top of the other, or side-by-side. The compact, sleek frame makes it easier to maneuver through doors and supermarket aisles. Some models can be used on rough terrain or for an exercise walk due to their wide rear wheels and four-wheel suspension.
Another benefit of a tandem pushchair is that it will often include two carrycots, or a car seat, and a buggy seat. You can save money by creating an entire travel system from the beginning and not making separate purchases. It's worth remembering that tandems can be heavier and longer than single pushchairs, and can feel less stable in bumping into kerbs or over uneven surfaces. They also tend to need dismantling to fit into cars.
