What to Look For in a Twin Pushchair

A twin pushchair is an ideal choice if you have two kids or children who are similar in age. They offer two places for your little ones and are usually equipped with comfortable carrycots for newborns and also compatibility with car seats for older toddlers.

Be on the lookout for models that have easy-to use push handles, as well as a GIANT basket. Add-ons like cups holders and a tray for snacks for kids and parents are also helpful.

Tandem

The classic tandem twin pushchair sits side-by-side and allows the children to look at each the other. Some parents prefer this style since it is less likely to cause siblings to argue over which seat. It's also a great alternative for places such as the zoo, where the children can easily see each their fellow. Tandems are generally larger than single buggy however they tend to be wider and can feel long when they are pushed.

Some twin buggies start as a single pushchair, but can be expanded to fit two seats or carrycots by using an adapter. This is a great solution for families with more than one child. You don't need to buy a brand new buggy after your older child has outgrown it. However, it might not be a good option for twin babies in the beginning, as they'll need to be of similar age and weight.

The jogger is another type of twin buggy that can be used as a single or Double Seat stroller buggy, and can hold two car seats. It has an air-filled tire and a swivel-forward steering wheel which means it can be used on off-road trails. It's a bit heavier than other models but the extra weight brings the added durability.

The Phil & Ted Sport double stroller with bassinet Jogger can be used either with the seat in the main compartment, or with a clever double kit that attaches directly to the single seat. It has one swivel on the front and all-wheel suspension that makes it more stable than other joggers that we tested. It also works with many car seats.

This narrow stroller that converts from a single to a double is perfect for urban excursions. Its easy maneuverability and large basket make it ideal for urban adventures. It comes with an UPF 50+ sun canopy that can be extended to provide shade, and an open window in the front seat, so both children can take in the view. This model does not come with a built in recline however, it can be paired up with a Roma Gemini Carrycot (PS100 per carrycot) to make a space that is flat for infants and newborns. It can also be used with the seat of a toddler to make it a three-seater suitable for older children.

Convertible

A convertible twin pushchair is a flexible option that lets you change the configuration as your children develop. The frame begins as a single pushchair with adaptors that can be attached ready to grow double stroller allow for the addition of a second chair such as a carrycot or car seat. These models are a bit wider than standard buggy models however, they are able to fit through doors and are easier to maneuver on roads. These models allow you to use two carrycots or a toddler car seat in tandem which is ideal for siblings.

The iCandy Peach 7 double buggy is a fantastic example of this type. It can be set up in 25 different ways using seats, car seats and carrycots. Our team was impressed by how slim and lightweight it is for a two-seater while also offering a spacious, sturdy and comfortable ride for kids. Additionally, the clever and simple one-handed recline lever located on the back of the unit makes it simple to get your child into an upright position.

The Uppababy Vista V2 stroller is another example. It has removable seats that can be set to face either direction, or reverse, making it ideal for twins of any age. It can also accommodate a third child in the RumbleSeat or PiggyBack riding board that attach to the middle of the frame.

Multiple configurations

The seating arrangement of your twin pushchair could affect its efficiency. You should look for several options that will allow you to alter the direction in which your child's seat is positioned based on their mood, situation or even as they become. The Bugaboo Donkey 5 twin pushchair from birth, for instance, is incredibly versatile, with reversible seat and bassinets that allow siblings to face each other, you, or the exciting path ahead. The frame can be expanded to accommodate a second seat. It can be used either in Mono or Double mode. A variety of accessories are available for both configurations.

The side-byside configuration is a popular option for parents who are just starting out. One child is seated behind the other. This type 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 navigate in the public transportation system and in doors. The Cybex gazelle S pushchair, for instance offers more than 20 options, so you can select the best configuration for your child. It can also be used with two car seats or carrycots in tandem mode.

The Valco Jump Seat attachment allows you to transform this side-by-side double buggy, which is made for twins, to the jogger. Both kids will face towards the forward direction. This lets you keep pace with your running companion while keeping the kids happy.

Think about your lifestyle when selecting a twin pushchair. They tend to be heavier because they have additional features, such as bigger baskets and padded seats. It is possible that they're a little heavier than a single stroller, and you'll need purchase additional accessories, such as rain covers or sunshades to protect your twins.

It is equally important to test the quality of a double pushchair as it is to ensure that it is compatible with your budget and lifestyle. Find brands that prioritize sustainability and offer specific information on their manufacturing processes to ensure that you're getting the most compact double stroller value for money. Joining parenting groups online or attending local events can give you valuable information about the best twin pushchairs.

Stores

If you have twins, you'll need 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 essentials. Make sure that the storage areas are easily accessible using the seats positioned in different positions too. The UPPAbaby Vista 2 can carry twins or a baby and toddler, plus has room to add a 'PiggyBack' board for older children (PS120). The Roma Gemini is able to accommodate two infants using the cocoons included (PS59 each). Because of the new design, it is possible to attach the cocoons facing either way or backwards. It has a convenient standing fold that makes it easy to keep in storage between usages.
