What to Look For in a Twin Pushchair

If you have two kids or babies of similar age, a twin pushchair could be a great option. They provide two spaces for your infants and are usually equipped with comfortable carrycots for infants and also compatibility with car seats for older toddlers.

Be sure to look for models that have easy-to-use push handles and the GIANT storage basket. Add-ons like cups holders and a tray for snacks for parents and kids are also helpful.

Tandem

The classic tandem twin pushchair is side-by-side and allows the children to look at each other. This is the preferred choice of parents who believe it less likely to trigger sibling rivalries over who sits where. It's also a good option for places like the zoo, where the children are able to easily see each their fellow. Tandems can be more spacious than single buggies, but they also are more spacious and longer when they are being pushed.

Some twin buggies are designed as a single pushchair, but can be adapted to accommodate two seats or carrycots with an adapter. This is a cost-effective solution for families expecting more than one child and it means that you don't have to buy an entirely new buggy once your older child is outgrowing it. However, it may not be the best choice for twin babies in the early months since they'll have to be of similar age and weight.

The jogger is another type of twin buggy that can be used as a double or single buggy and can accommodate two car seats. It features a swivel front wheel and air-filled tyres so it can cope with off-road trails, too. It is a bit heavier than some other options however the extra weight is added durability.

The Phil & Ted Sport double jogger is a great choice for either seat in the main compartment, or with a nifty double pushchair kit that is attached to the existing single seat. With the single swivel wheel on the front and all-wheel suspension, it is able to handle rough terrain better than many other joggers that we have tested and is compatible with a variety of car seats too.

This narrow, single-to-double umbrella stroller stroller is ideal for urban adventures thanks to its simple maneuverability and large shopping basket. It features an UPF50and sun canopy that can be extended to provide shade and a peekaboo window in the front seat so that both children can take in the view. The model doesn't have an integrated recline, but it can be combined 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 a three-seater.

Convertible

A convertible twin pushchair is an adaptable option that lets you alter the configuration as your kids develop. It is initially an individual pram, but it has adaptors that can be attached to the frame for an additional seat, carrycot or car seat. These models are larger than standard buggy models, but they can fit through doors and are easier to move around the kerbs. They also let you use a toddler seat as well as an infant car seat, or two carrycots side-by-side, which works well for siblings of different ages.

The iCandy Peach 7 is a excellent example of double buggy that can be used in 25 different configurations, including carrycots and car seats. Our test team loved how light and slim it is for a two-seater while also offering a spacious comfortable, sturdy ride for the 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 down flat.

The Uppababy Vista V2 is another example of a convertible twin stroller with seats that can be removed and can be configured to face forward or backward which makes it suitable for twins of all ages. It can also accommodate an additional child on the RumbleSeat or PiggyBack riding board, which attaches to the middle of the frame.

Multiple configurations

The seating arrangement of your twin pushchair can affect its functionality. Consider a variety of seating options so that you can switch up the direction of your child's seats based on their mood or the circumstances and continue to use them as they grow. The Bugaboo Donkey 5 Twin, for example, is incredibly versatile, with reversible seat and bassinet configurations that allow siblings to face one another and you, or the exciting route ahead. The frame can be expanded to allow for an additional seat. It can be used either in Mono or Double mode. A range of accessories are available for both configurations.

A popular choice of configuration for parents who are new is a side-by-side configuration, which means that one child is seated behind the other. This kind of twin buggy offers the advantage of giving both children the same view and is generally more compact than a single pushchair, which makes it easier to maneuver in public spaces and through doors. The Cybex gazelle S pushchair, for instance has more than 20 different configurations to choose the best set-up for your child. It can also be used with two car seats or carrycots in tandem mode.

If you want to take their twins jogging or go on more adventurous adventures The Valco Jump Seat attachment turns this side-by-side double buggy into an jogger that has both kids facing forwards. This allows you to keep on top of your running partner and keeps the kids content as they explore.

Think about your lifestyle when selecting a twin pushchair. They tend to be heavier because they come with extra features such as larger baskets and more padding for the seats. You might also discover that they're a bit more difficult to maneuver than a single pushchair and you might need to purchase additional accessories, such as rain covers or sunshades to protect your twins from the elements.

It's equally important to check the quality of a double buggy side by side pushchair, as it's to ensure that it fits into your budget and lifestyle. Choose brands that are committed to sustainability and provide specific information on their manufacturing processes to ensure that you're getting the best value for money. Joining online parenting groups or attending local events can give you important information on the most suitable twin pushchairs.

Stores

If you have twins, you'll have to carry a lot of stuff. Find a car with a large undercarriage storage basket as well as plenty of compartments and pockets for your necessities. Make sure the storage areas are accessible with the seats positioned in different positions, too. The UPPAbaby Vista 2 can carry twins or a toddler and a baby and also add a 'PiggyBack' board for older children (PS120). The Roma Gemini can accommodate two infants in the cocoons that come with it (PS59 each) The altered design lets you attach them facing either way. It also has a convenient folding stand that makes it easy to store between usages.
