Choosing a Double Pushchair Twin

If you have twins, you'll need a double pushchair to take them from A to B. Our range of twin prams for sale includes twin buggies that can be set up in a variety of ways to meet your needs.

Look for a stroller that can be folded in just one step, and easily put into your boot. You might also want lightweight designs that are easy to navigate and manoeuvre especially when you have busy streets to tackle.

Side-by-Side

This is the most popular double pushchair. It is usually able to accommodate two children side by side. They're generally larger than single pushchairs. This makes them less able to maneuver on paths. It can also be difficult to move through kerbs with an automobile seat is installed. However, the extra width can mean that they're generally easier to navigate through doorways and are distributed more evenly making them more comfortable to carry around on your back.

They can be used as a twin pram bags from birth, and many models can accommodate a carrycot or two car seats. Some models can be converted into a single mode with a basket alongside (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 a carrycot side by side. This allows you to create an entirely enclosed twin space, which is ideal for infants. This pram comes with some amazing accessories, such as the newborn cocoons that can be attached either facing forwards or in any direction (for twin-facing prams). It's not as light as other options but it is very well thought out.

Lightweight

Cybex is a brand known for its innovation and this pushchair converts to a single is no exception. The frame can be extended to accommodate an additional seat. It is possible to use the pushchair as a twin from birth by adding two newborn cocoons for a total of PS59. These cocoons create enclosed lie-flat spaces. It can also be used as mono mode with just one child, thanks to a large basket that sits behind the seat. It comes with front and rear suspensions that allows it to handle bumps and uneven surfaces with ease. The top choice from our reviewers.

Available in a variety of stylish colors.

Tandem

If you're planning to have twins, you want a tandem pushchair that permits the children to be seated side by side, so they can look at each one another. These are great for things like visiting the zoo, as the children will be able to look at all the animals together. They are also ideal for parents who need to monitor their toddler and baby simultaneously.

Some tandem pushchairs are extremely adaptable, since they can be converted back to single mode. This is especially useful if you plan to have more children than two (or when your oldest child doesn't require a buggy any longer). It means you won't have an empty pushchair to put away which can be expensive.

The Cybex Venus, for example can be used in mono or double mode. The frame can be expanded to accommodate a second seat. It's not the tiniest pushchair however it does come with an ample basket that can be set behind the front seat in double mode, or at the rear when in mono mode. The seats can be placed to face each other, or one could be placed higher, so that it can see over the other and see what they are doing.

Double tandem pushchairs, such as the Joolz Geo 3, are able to seat one above the other or side by side. The compact, sleek frame makes it easier to maneuver through doorways and supermarket aisles. Some models can be used on rough terrain, or for a jogging walk thanks to their wide rear wheels and four-wheel suspension.

A tandem pushchair can also be used to carry two carrycots or a car with a buggy seat. You can save money by creating a travel system at the beginning and avoiding separate purchases. It is important to remember, however, that tandems are heavier and longer than single pushchairs, and are less stable when bumping up kerbs or going over uneven surfaces. They also tend to need dismantling in order to fit into cars.
