Buying a Twin Pushchair

Direct4Baby offers a range of innovative twin and double pushchairs.

Some of our favourites are the egg2 dual-use pushchairs. They open in a new window that allows you to modify them for toddlers and babies by combining carrycots and seat units.

Side-by-Side

The children are placed side-byside in a side-by-side double single pushchair stroller. It can accommodate two fixed seats. They tend to be smaller than single pushchairs, making them it is easier to maneuver through doorways, and more evenly weighted, which makes them easy to manoeuvre through kerbs and up and down.

Some seats can be adjusted to ensure that a child can lie flat while others are designed to accommodate carrycots. This kind of twin is an excellent option 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, like the Cybex Aton M5. This is a unique option that is not only practical but also fun for children. However, it is important to check that any extra accessories are compatible with the model before you buy.

Tandem

The tandem pushchair is arranged behind the twin pushchair and provides two places for children. This arrangement is especially suitable for babies of similar age as it means you can have your baby in a cozy carrycot and your toddler in a seat unit or a car seat (though not all models can accommodate both). A lot of the top twin pushchairs come with a cushioned front seat that reclines and an upright rear seat.

The Cybex Venus is an excellent model of a twin-pushchair. The rear seat reclines fully and is suitable for babies and the front seat can be set either way. This allows your child to look at their older sibling, or even look out at the world. Include a newborn cocoon on both seats for a lie-flat place for your children. The rear seat comes with a hood, raincover and a full recline.

You can also opt for one of the models like the Joolz Geo 3 which has been constructed with a rear-facing seat that pops up to reveal a huge shopping basket when not in use. This lets you easily move a lightweight double buggy pushchair around narrow doors. It's an excellent option for double pushchairs urban excursions. The bent frame and four-wheel suspension makes it ideal for handling uneven surfaces too.

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

The egg2 is an example of twin pushchairs that can be used in a variety of configurations. It has become loved by parents due to its attractive design and high-quality fabric. It can be used as a single with a carrycot and infant seat or as a twin with two seat units or even as a three-child family rig with the addition of a 'piggy back' board that connects to the rear of the chassis.

Convenience

The right twin pushchair can transform your daily routine, whether you're strolling through busy shopping malls or taking tranquil park walks. There are a variety of choices from tandem pushchairs that align your kids together to compact twin buggies designed for small spaces. However, the most important factor to consider is whether the twin pushchair is able to endure the wear and tear of two kids while providing plenty of space for their possessions as well.

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 is easy to steer and stop the pushchair as well as how it folds up and put up when it's not in use. You should also check out the weight of the pushchair to make sure it's not too heavy to lift into your car, and to store away when not in use.

There are plenty of accessories for twin pushchairs. These include foot muffs, rain covers and drink holders. These optional extras are available from a variety of top brands for twin pushchairs. Spend the time to look through the various options and determine which one is the most suitable for your family. It's also worth noting that some twin pushchairs might include a variety of these items as standard, so be sure to check before you purchase.

It is essential to choose a twin pushchair that can fit through narrow doorways and other spaces. If you're not sure you're not sure, ask a member of staff at the retailer you've chosen to determine the width of a couple of door frames to give you an idea of how much space you'll need for a twin pushchair.

This popular twin pushchair comes with many useful accessories included. This includes removable seat covers along with foot muffs, rain covers. It's a great option for parents looking for a versatile twin pram that can be used from birth and is able to accommodate their children as young as the age of 4 years old. It can be used in mono or dual mode, and comes with a clever frame that expands to accommodate a second car seat.
