Look out for models with easy to use push handles as well as a GIANT basket. Accessories such as cups and snack trays for parents and children are also handy.
Tandem
The classic tandem twin pushchair lets both children face each other. This is the preferred choice for some parents who feel it less likely to cause sibling rivalries over who sits where. It's also a great alternative for places such as the zoo, where the children are able to be able to see each their fellow. Tandems are often larger than single buggy however they are generally wider and can feel long when being pushed.
A few twin buggies are initially designed as single pushchairs, but can be extended to fit two seats or carrycots by adding an adapter. This can be a cost-effective solution for families expecting more than one child and it means that you don't have to purchase another buggy if your older child has outgrown it. However, it might not be the best option for twins in the beginning since they'll have to be of similar age and weight.
The jogger is a second type of twin buggy that can be used as a single or double buggy and can accommodate two car seats. It comes with a swivel rear wheel and air-filled tyres, so it is able to handle off-road trails too. It is heavier than other models, but it has added durability.
The Phil & Ted Sport Double Jogger can be used with the seat in the main compartment or with a clever double kit that is attached directly to the single seat. It features one swivel on the front and an all-wheel suspension which makes it more stable than other joggers that we've tested. It is also compatible with a variety of car seats.

Our test team loved how light and slim it is for a two-seater while also offering a spacious, sturdy and comfortable ride for children. Additionally, the clever and simple one-handed recline lever located on the back of the unit makes it simple to get your child into the position of lying flat.

Multiple configurations
The seating arrangement of your twin pushchair could have a significant impact on its efficiency. Consider a variety of seating options to alter the direction your children's seats based on their mood or the circumstances, as well as continuing to use them as they grow. The Bugaboo Donkey 5 Twin, for instance, is incredibly versatile, with reversible seats and bassinets that allow siblings to be facing each other either with you or the exciting road ahead. The frame's clever design expands widthways to accommodate the additional seat and can be used in Mono or Double mode with a range of accessories that are available for both types of configuration.

This type of twin pushchair has the benefit of giving both children the same view and is generally more compact than a single pushchair, making it easier to maneuver in the public transportation system and in doors.

This allows you to keep pace with your running companion and keeps the kids happy as they explore.
In general twin pushchairs can be a bit heavier than single pushchairs because they come with additional features like bigger baskets and padded seats, so consider your lifestyle before you choose this kind of stroller. You may also find they are a bit heavier than a single stroller and that you need to buy additional accessories such as sunshades or rain covers to protect your twins.
Checking the quality of a twin stroller side by side pushchair is just as important as ensuring that it is within your budget and lifestyle. Choose brands that are committed to sustainability and offer detailed information on their manufacturing processes to ensure you're getting the most value for money.

The storage areas should be easily accessible, even when the seats are in different positions. The UPPAbaby Vista 2 can carry twins or a baby and toddler and also add the 'PiggyBack' board for older kids (PS120). The Roma Gemini can accommodate two infants in the cocoons that come with it (PS59 each) and the altered design lets you connect them facing either direction. It also comes with a handy standing fold for easy storage between usages.
