Choosing a Double Pushchair Twin
You'll need a double stroller to take your twins from A to B. Our range comprises of twin prams as well as double buggies with various configurations to meet your family's requirements.
Find a stroller that can fold in one step and then easily tucked away into your car. You could also opt for a lighter design, especially when you're on busy high streets.
Side-by-Side
This is the most common double pushchair. It usually seats two children side-by-side. They tend to be a bit wider than single pushchairs, which means they may be less nimble on footpaths and can be a little tricky to navigate through the kerbs with a car attached. However the extra width does mean that they're often a lot easier to navigate through doors and are distributed more evenly making them less burdensome to carry around on your back.
They can be used as twin cheap prams from the beginning and a lot of models can accommodate a carrycot or 2 car seats. Some can even be converted to one-mode with an additional basket (like the Cybex Venus).
One of the most excellent examples of this is the Bugaboo Donkey 5 which, in Twin Mode, allows you to place the rear seat and carrycot side by side. This lets you create an entirely enclosed twin space, which is perfect for babies. The pram shops near me is also equipped with a couple of really cool accessories, including the newborn cocoons that can be put on the front or back (for twin-facing prams) or facing inwards (for a standard single). It's not as light as some other options but it's incredibly well created.
Lightweight
Cybex is known for innovation and this pushchair that converts from a single to a double is no exception. Its clever frame expands widthways to accommodate two seats, and you can use it as a twin right from birth with the addition of two newborn cocoons (PS59 each) that provide enclosed, lie-flat areas for infants. The large shopping basket behind the seat can be used in mono mode for a single child. And it has a rear and front suspension to tackle bumps and uneven surfaces more easily. The top choice from our reviewers.
Available in a variety fashionable colors.
Tandem
If you're planning to have twins, you want a pushchair that can allow the children to be seated together so that they can look at each one another. These are great for things like visiting the zoo, as the children can look at all the animals together. They are also great for parents who must keep an eye on their toddler and the other on their child since they can look at both simultaneously.
Some tandem pushchairs are incredibly adaptable, since they can be converted back to single mode. This is particularly useful when you are planning to have more children than two (or in the event that your child who is the oldest doesn't require a buggy any longer). This will prevent you from having to store a buggy that's empty which can be costly.
For instance the Cybex Venus can be used in both mono and double mode, and features a clever frame that opens wide to accommodate a second seat. It's not the lightest pushchair, but it has an enormous basket that can be placed behind the front seat when in double mode or at the back if in mono mode. The seats can either be set up so that they face one the other or higher to be able to see what the other is doing.
Other double tandem pushchairs, like the Joolz Geo 3, are capable of seating one over the other or side by side. The slim, sleek frame makes it easy to maneuver through doorways and supermarket aisles. Some models can also be used on rough terrain, or for a jogging walk thanks to their large rear wheels and four-wheel suspension.
A tandem pushchair can be used to carry two carrycots or a car and buggy seat. This means you can create a best travel pram system right from the outset and save money on separate 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 have to be dismantled to fit in cars.
