Choosing a Double Pushchair Twin

You need a double stroller to take your twins from one place to B. Our range includes a range of twin prams and double buggies in various configurations to meet your family's requirements.

Find a stroller that can be folded in just one step and then easily tucked away into your boot. You might also want a lighter design, especially if you're tackling busy high streets.

Side-by-Side

They are the most commonly used type of double pushchair that can typically seat 2 children in a row. They're generally bigger than single pushchairs. This makes them less able to maneuver on the footpaths. It can also be difficult to navigate between kerbs when the car seat is in place. However, the extra width can mean that they're generally easier to navigate through doorways and are distributed more evenly making them easier on your back.

They can be used as a twin pram from birth and many models can accommodate a carrycot or 2 car seats. Some models can be converted to one mode with a basket on the side (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 allows you to create an entirely enclosed twin space and is ideal for infants. The pram is also equipped with a couple of really neat accessories, including the newborn cocoons, which can be attached to face either way (for twin-facing prams) or facing inwards (for a standard single). It's not as light as other options, but it's really cleverly thought out.

Lightweight

Cybex is renowned for its nifty pushchairs and the single-to-double is no exception. The frame can be enlarged to accommodate a second seat. It is possible to use the pushchair as twins from birth by adding two cocoons for babies for a total of PS59. These cocoons create enclosed lie-flat spaces. The large basket of shopping behind the seat can be used in mono mode for one child. And it comes with rear and front suspensions to take on bumps and uneven surfaces more easily. It is a top pick from our reviewers.

Available in a range of fashionable colors.

Tandem

If you are planning to have twins you will require a tandem pushchair. This allows both children to sit together and interact with each other. They are great for trips to the zoo, as children can watch the animals together. They are also ideal for parents who wish to watch both their toddler and their baby simultaneously.

Some tandem pushchairs offer ultra flexibility since they can be converted back to single mode. This is particularly beneficial for families with more than two children (or in the event that your child who is the oldest does not require a buggy any longer). This means you won't have an empty pushchair to store away, which can be costly.

For instance for instance, the Cybex Venus can be used in double or mono mode, and features a clever frame that opens wide to allow for an additional seat. This isn't the lightest of pushchairs, but it offers a large basket for shopping that is placed behind the front seat when in double mode (and in the back of the seat in mono mode). The seats can be set up in a way that they face each the other or higher to see what the other is doing.

Other double tandem pushchairs prams pushchairs, such as the Joolz Geo 3 can seat one on top of the other, or side-by-side. The slim, sleek frame makes it easier to maneuver through doors and supermarket aisles. Certain models can be used on rough terrain or for an exercise walk due to their wide rear wheels and four-wheel suspension.

A tandem pushchair can also be used to carry two carrycots, or a car and buggy seat. This means you can create a travel system right from the beginning and save money on additional purchases. It's worth remembering that tandems are heavier and longer than single pushchairs, and can feel less stable bumping up kerbs or going over uneven surfaces. They also need dismantling in order to fit into cars.
