Choosing a Double Pushchair Twin

When you have twins, you'll need a double pushchair in order to get them from A to B. Our range includes twin prams pushchairs and buggies that can be set up in different ways to suit your requirements.

Find a pushchair that folds with one step and is easy to put into your car. You might also want a lightweight design that's easy to maneuver and navigate especially if you have busy roads to tackle.

Side-by-Side

This is the most commonly used double pushchair. It is usually able to accommodate two children side-by-side. They tend to be a bit wider than single pushchairs, which means they're less agile on footpaths and can be a little tricky to navigate between the kerbs with a car attached. The extra size allows them to move more easily through doorways and are more evenly distributed so that it is less burdensome on your back.

Many models can be used as early as birth as twin prams and accept a carrycot, or two car seats. Some models can be converted into one mode, with a basket beside (like the Cybex Venus).

One of the best examples of this is the Bugaboo Donkey 5 which, in Twin Mode, allows you to place the rear seat and a carrycot side-by-side. This lets you create an entirely enclosed twin space and is perfect for newborns. The pram also comes with a number of really neat accessories, including newborn cocoons, which can be positioned to face either way (for a twin-facing pram) or facing forwards (for a normal single). It's not as light as other models, but it's really cleverly designed.

Lightweight

Cybex is renowned for its innovative pushchairs, and the single-to-double isn't an exception. Its innovative frame expands widthways to accommodate a second seat, and you can use it as a twin right from birth by incorporating the addition of two newborn cocoons (PS59 each) that provide enclosed, lie-flat areas for babies. It can also be used as a mono mode with one child due to a large shopping basket that is placed behind the seat. It also has front and rear suspensions that can handle bumps and uneven surfaces more easily. Our reviewers picked this car as their top choice.

Available in a variety of stylish colors.

Tandem

If you're planning to have twins you will need a tandem pushchair. This will allow each child to sit and interact with each other. They are perfect for visiting the zoo since the kids can look at the animals together. They are also ideal for parents who want to monitor both their toddler and their baby at the same time.

Some tandem pushchairs are very adaptable, since they can be converted back to single mode. This is especially useful for families with more than two children (or when your oldest child doesn't require a buggy any longer). This means you won't have an empty pushchair that you need to store away which can be expensive.

For instance for instance, the Cybex Venus can be used in double or mono mode, and features a clever frame that can be expanded to accommodate an extra seat. This isn't the heaviest of pushchairs, however it comes with an enormous shopping basket 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 in a way that they face each other or higher up to observe what the other is doing.

Other double tandem pushchairs like the Joolz Geo 3 can seat one on top of the other, or side-by-side. They have a sleek, compact frame that makes them easier to maneuver through doorways and aisles in supermarkets, and some models can be used as a jogging stroller on rough terrain thanks to a four-wheel suspension as well as wide rear wheels.

Another benefit of a tandem pushchair is that it will often take two carrycots, or a car seat and a buggy seat. You can save money by creating an entire travel system from the beginning and avoiding separate purchases. Remember that tandems are heavier and longer and may feel less stable when bumping up the kerbs or going over uneven surfaces. They also need dismantling to fit into cars.
