What to Look For in a Twin Pushchair

A twin pushchair is the perfect option if you have two children or kids who are similar in age. They offer two spaces to transport your little ones and are usually equipped with comfy carrycots or chairs for newborns, as well as car seats that are compatible with older toddlers.

Be sure to look for models with easy-to-use push handles and an GIANT storage basket. Add-ons like cups holders and a tray for snacks for children and parents are also beneficial.

Tandem

The classic tandem twin pushchair is side-by-side and allows both children to face one the other. This is the preferred style of some parents who find it less likely to trigger sibling rivalries over who is sitting where. It is also a good option for trips to places like the zoo where both kids are able to see each other clearly. Tandems can be more spacious than single buggys however they are generally more spacious and can feel longer when they are pushed.

A few twin buggies are initially designed as single pushchairs but can be extended to hold two seats or carrycots by adding an adapter. This is a cost-effective solution for families with more than one child, and it means that you won't have to purchase a new buggy when your older child outgrows it. It's not the best option for twins in the early years, as they'll need to be of a similar weight and age.

Another type of twin buggy is the jogger that can be utilized in double or single mode and has two car seats. It has a swivel front wheel and air-filled tyres so it can handle off-road trails, too. It is a bit heavier than other models but the extra weight is the added durability.

The Phil & Ted Sport double buggy converts to single Jogger is able to be used with the seat in the main compartment or with an innovative double running buggy kit that attaches directly to the single seat. With one swivel front wheel and all-wheel suspension, it is able to handle rough terrain better than other joggers we've tested and is compatible with a variety of car seats too.

This stroller is narrow and single-to-Thule double stroller. It is perfect for urban adventures due to its ease of maneuverability and large shopping basket. It features UPF50plus sun canopy that can be extended to provide shade and a peekaboo view from the front seat for both children to enjoy the view. The model doesn't have recline built-in however, it can be used with a Roma Gemini Carrycot (PS100 per carrycot) to make a space that is flat for infants or newborns. It can also be outfitted with a toddler seat, making it three-seater.

Convertible

A convertible twin pushchair is the flexibility to allow you to alter the configuration of your pushchair as your children get older. It is initially one pram but has adaptors that attach to the frame for a second seat, a carrycot or car seat. These models are typically wider than a typical buggy, but are able to be able to pass through doors and are much easier to maneuver through kerbs and up and down. These models let you use two carrycots or a car seat for toddlers side-by-side which is ideal for siblings.

The iCandy Peach 7 is a amazing example of double buggy that can be used in 25 different configurations using seats, carrycots and car seats. Our team was impressed by how light and slim it is for a dual-seater, while also offering a spacious, sturdy and comfortable ride for kids. Additionally, the clever and intuitive recline lever with one hand located on the back of the seat unit makes it easy to get your child in a lie-flat position.

The Uppababy Vista V2 stroller is another example. It comes with removable seats that can be placed to face forwards or backwards, 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 configuration of your twin pushchair may affect its performance. You should look for a variety of options that permit you to change the direction that your child's seat is positioned based on their mood, circumstances or even as they develop. The Bugaboo Donkey 5 Twin, for example, is incredibly versatile, with reversible seat and bassinets that allow siblings to face one another either with you or the exciting path ahead. The frame can be expanded to accommodate an extra seat. It is able to be used in Mono or double single pushchair mode. A range of accessories are available for both configurations.

The side-by-side configuration is a popular option for new parents. One child sits behind the second. This kind of twin buggy is a bit narrower than a standard pushchair, and is able to be moved through doorways and on public transport. The Cybex Gazelle S Pushchair for instance, comes in over 20 different configurations, so you can choose the best configuration for your family, and it can even accommodate two car seats or carrycots in tandem mode.

The Valco Jump Seat attachment allows you to transform this side-by-side double pushchair from birth buggy, specifically designed for twins, into a Jogger. Both kids will face forward. This allows you to keep up with your running companion while keeping your kids entertained.

Take into consideration your lifestyle when you choose a twin pushchair. They tend to be heavier due to the additional features like larger baskets and extra padded seats. You might also notice that they are a bit heavier than a single stroller, and you'll need buy additional accessories such as sunshades or rain covers to protect your twins.

Verifying the quality of a twin pushchair is as important as ensuring it is within your budget and lifestyle. Look for brands that prioritise sustainability and provide specific information on their manufacturing processes to ensure that you're getting the best value for money. You can also gain valuable insight into the ideal twin pushchair for you by joining parenting groups on the internet or attending local events to talk to other parents about their experience and suggestions.

Storage

You'll be carrying lots of things for twins, so make sure you have a large undercarriage basket with plenty of compartments or pockets to store your essentials. Make sure the storage areas are easy to access with the seats in various positions too. The UPPAbaby Vista 2 is able to carry twins or a baby as well as a toddler. It also has room for a 'PiggyBack' board (PS120) for older children. The Roma Gemini is able to accommodate two newborns with the cocoons included (PS59 each). With the new design, you can put the cocoons with either a either direction, or reverse. It also has a handy folding stand that makes it easy to store between uses.
