Buying a Twin Pushchair

Direct4Baby offers a variety of nifty twin and double pushchairs.

Our top picks are the egg2 dual-use pushchairs. They open a new window that can be modified to toddlers and infants with a combination carrycot and seat unit.

Side-by-Side

The children are placed side-byside in a side-by-side double stroller. It can be fitted with two seats fixed. They are often smaller than a single pushchair, so easier to pass through doors and are also more evenly weighted, making them easy to manoeuvre up and down kerbs.

Some seats can be adjusted so that one child can lay flat and others are designed to accommodate carrycots. This type of twin is an excellent option right from the beginning and also works well through toddlerhood and beyond.

Some models can be converted to a single buggy with an enormous shopping basket on top of it, such as the Cybex Aton M5. This is an innovative option that is not just practical, but also fun for kids. It is essential to make sure that any additional accessories you buy are compatible with the model you already have.

Tandem

Twin pushchairs, also referred to as tandems, are placed one behind the other, and provide two spaces for your children. This arrangement is particularly good for babies of similar ages as it lets you have your newborn in a cosy carrycot and your toddler in a seat unit or a baby carrier and car seat (though not all models are designed to accommodate both). Many of the best twin pushchairs come with a padded front seat that reclines and an upright seat in the rear.

The Cybex Venus is a great example of this type of twin pushchair. The rear seat reclines fully and is suitable for infants and the front seat can be set either way. This allows your child to gaze at their older sibling or look out into the world. You can also add an infant cocoon to both seats to create a lie-flat space for your infants and the rear seat comes with a hood and raincover for protection.

You could also choose a model like the Joolz Geo 3 with a rear seat which can be popped up to reveal a huge shopping basket when not in use. This allows you to easily move a double pushchair around narrow doors, making it an ideal choice for urban adventures. This buggy's curved frame and suspension on four wheels make it ideal for uneven surfaces.

Some tandem pushchairs like the UPPAbaby Vista 2, start as single buggies, after which a second seat can be added either in front, behind or underneath. It's a cost-effective choice that lasts longer and gives you ultra flexibility in the event that you're expecting another child in the near future.

The egg2 is a classic model of this type of twin pushchair that's designed to be used in a variety of configurations. It's been loved by parents due to its sleek design and high-end fabrics. It can be used either as a single pushchair with a carrycot, or twins with two seat units. Or, it can even be used as a family-friendly rig for three children with the addition a 'piggyback' board connected to the chassis.

Convenience

When you're strolling through bustling shopping centres or enjoying peaceful walks in the park, the right twin pushchair can transform your everyday routine. From tandem pushchairs that place your babies side-by-side, to compact twin buggies engineered for tight spaces, there's a variety of options. However, the most important consideration is whether the twin pushchair will withstand the wear and tear of two children, whilst offering plenty of space for their possessions too.

It's a good idea to test-drive a few different models before you buy a twin pushchair. This will give you an idea of how it's easy to control and stop the pushchair and also how it folds up and put up when it's not in use. You should also consider the weight of the pushchair to ensure it's not too heavy to carry into your car or keep in storage when not in use.

You'll find plenty of different accessories available for twin pushchairs. These include foot muffs, rain covers and drink holders. Many top brands offer a range of these optional extras for their twin pushchairs, therefore, make sure to take the time to review the options and decide which would work best for your family. It's important to note that some twin pushchairs include a range of these items as standard, so make sure to double travel stroller-check before buying.

Twin pushchairs can get rather weighty, so it's vital to select one that is able to fit through doors and other narrow spaces. If you're not sure, it's always worth asking an employee at the retailer you've chosen to determine the width of a few door frames to give you an idea of how much space you'll need for a twin pushchair.

This popular twin pushchair comes with a number of useful accessories included including reversible seat liner, foot muffs and rain covers. It's an excellent choice for parents seeking an adaptable twin pushchair that can be used from birth and is able to accommodate their children up to the age of 4 years old. It can be utilized in mono or dual mode. It also has an innovative frame that can be expanded to accommodate a second seat/carrycot.
