Choosing a Double Pushchair Twin

If you have twins, you'll need a double pushchair to take them from A to B. Our range includes twin prams and buggies that can be set up in various ways to meet your requirements.

Find a stroller that can fold in one step and then easily tucked away into your boot. You may also prefer a lightweight design, especially if you're tackling busy high streets.

Side-by-Side

They are the most commonly used type of double pushchair that generally can seat two children together. They tend to be wider than single pushchairs. This means they're less agile on footpaths and can be a bit difficult to navigate up and down the kerbs with a car attached. The extra size allows them to move more easily through doors and are more evenly distributed, so it is easier for Double Pushchair you to carry them on your back.

They can be used as twin prams from birth, and many models can be used with a carrycot or 2 car seats. Some can even be converted to one-mode with an additional basket (like the Cybex Venus).

The Bugaboo Donkey 5 is a perfect example of this. In Twin Mode, you can place the rear seat alongside the carrycot. This lets you create an entirely enclosed twin space, which is ideal for infants. This pram double comes with some amazing accessories, like the pram newborn cocoons that can be attached either facing towards the front or in any direction (for twin-facing prams). It's not as light as other options, but it's very well thought out.

Lightweight

Cybex is known for innovation, and this single-to-double pushchair is no exception. Its innovative frame expands widthways to accommodate two seats and you can use it as a twin right from birth by incorporating the addition of two newborn cocoons (PS59 each) which provide enclosed, lie-flat areas for infants. The large shopping basket behind the seat allows it to be used in mono mode for one child. It comes with both front and rear suspension that allows it to handle bumps and uneven surfaces more easily. Our reviewers chose this car as their top pick.

Available in a variety of stylish colors.

Tandem

If you're planning to have twins, you should consider a pushchair that can allow children to sit together, so they can look at each one another. These are great for things like visiting the zoo, because the kids will be able to gaze at all the animals together. They are also ideal for parents who need to monitor both their toddler and their baby at the same time.

Some tandem pushchairs offer ultra versatility as they can change back to single mode. This is particularly useful if you plan to have more than two children (or if your eldest child does not require a buggy any longer). It means you won't be left with an empty pushchair to store away, which can be costly.

For instance, the Cybex Venus can be used in mono or double mode, and features a clever frame that expands widthways to accommodate an extra seat. It's not the tiniest pushchair but it has an ample basket that can be placed behind the front seat when in double mode, or at the rear when in mono mode. The seats can either be placed in a way that they face each the other or higher to see what each is doing.

Other double tandem pushchairs, like the Joolz Geo 3, are equipped to place one on top of the other or side by side. They are sleek and compact frame that makes it easier to maneuver through doors and aisles of supermarkets Some models can be used as a jogging or stroller on rough terrain due to a four-wheel suspension as well as wide rear wheels.

Another benefit of a tandem pushchair is that it can include two carrycots, or a car seat and buggy seat. This means you can create a travel system from the beginning and save money on additional purchases. It's important to keep in mind, however, that tandems are heavier and longer than single pushchairs, and are less stable when bumping up kerbs or going over uneven surfaces. These pushchairs also need to be dismantled for fitting into cars.
