Choosing a Double Pushchair Twin

If you have twins you need a double pushchair to get them from A to B. Our range includes a range of twin prams as well as double buggies with various configurations to suit your family requirements.

Choose a stroller that folds in a single step and is easy to carry into your boot. You might also want an ultra-light design that is easy to navigate and manoeuvre especially if you have busy streets to tackle.

Side-by-Side

They are the most commonly used type of double pushchair, and generally can seat two children together. They tend to be wider than single pushchairs. This makes them less able to maneuver on the footpaths. It may also be difficult to move between kerbs when a car seat is attached. However the extra width means that they're usually easier to navigate through doorways and are distributed more evenly making them easier to carry around on your back.

They can be used as a twin pram (64guy.com) from birth and many models can be used with a carrycot and 2 car seats. Some models can be converted to a single mode with a basket on the side (like the Cybex Venus).

One of the most excellent 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 creates a completely enclosed space for twins and is perfect for babies. The pram comes with amazing accessories, such as the newborn cocoons that can be positioned either facing towards the front or in any direction (for twin-facing prams). It's not as lightweight as other options, but it's extremely well-thought out.

Lightweight

Cybex is renowned for its nifty pushchairs and the single-to-double isn't an exception. The frame can be expanded to accommodate a second 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 is also possible to use it as an individual mode with only one child, thanks to a large shopping basket that is placed behind the seat. It comes with front and rear suspensions, so it can handle bumps and uneven surfaces better. Our reviewers picked this car as their top pick.

Available in a variety of fashionable colors.

Tandem

If you're planning to have twins, you need a foldable pushchair that can allow children to sit close to each other, so they can be able to see each other. They are great for trips to the zoo since the kids can look at the animals together. They are also ideal for parents who want to watch both their toddler and their baby simultaneously.

Some tandem pushchairs are incredibly adaptable, since they can be converted back to single mode. This is especially useful when you're planning to have more than two kids (or only your oldest does not require a buggy anymore). This means that you won't be left with an empty pushchair to store away which can be expensive.

The Cybex Venus, for example is a model that can be used in double or mono mode. Its frame expands to allow for an additional seat. It's not the lightest of pushchairs, but it offers a large basket for shopping that sits 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 other or higher up to be able to see what each is doing.

Other double tandem pushchairs like the Joolz Geo 3 can seat one on top of the other or side-by-side. The slim, sleek frame makes it easier to maneuver through doors and supermarket aisles. Some models can also be used on uneven terrain or as a jogging walk thanks to their large rear wheels and four-wheel suspension.

Another advantage of a tandem pushchair is that it can often take two carrycots, or a car seat, and buggy seat. You can save money by creating an overall travel system from the beginning, and avoiding separate purchases. Be aware that tandems are heavier and longer, and they may be less stable when you bump into kerbs and going over uneven surfaces. These pushchairs must also be dismantled for fitting into cars.
