What s Everyone Talking About Pushchair This Moment
Choosing a Double pushchair twin (index)
You'll require a double stroller to take your twins from A to B. Our range of twin prams includes twin buggies that can be set up in various ways to meet your needs.
Look for a stroller that can be folded in one step, and easily put into your car. You may also prefer an ultra-lightweight design, particularly in high traffic streets.
Side-by-Side
This is the most common double pushchair. It usually seats two children side by side. They tend to be wider than single pushchairs. This means they may be less nimble on the sidewalk and can be a little tricky to navigate up and down kerbs with a car seat attached. The extra size makes them easier to maneuver through doorways and also more evenly distributed so that it is easier to carry around on your back.
Many models can be used as early as birth as twin cheap prams, and can take a carrycot, or two car seats. Some can even be converted to a single mode with an additional basket (like the Cybex Venus).
The Bugaboo Donkey 5 is a great example of this. In Twin Mode, you can place the rear seat alongside a carrycot. This creates a totally enclosed space for twins, and is ideal for newborns. The pram comes with really cool accessories, such as the newborn cocoons that can be attached either facing toward the forward direction or in any direction (for twin-facing prams). It's not as light as some other options but it is very well thought out.
Lightweight
Cybex is a brand known for its innovation and this pushchair converts to a single is no different. Its clever frame expands widthways to accommodate a second seat and can be used it as a twin right from birth with the addition of two newborn cocoons (PS59 each) which create enclosed lie-flat spaces for infants. It can also be used in an individual mode with only one child due to a large basket that is placed behind the seat. And it has a rear and front suspension to tackle bumps and uneven surfaces a little more easily. Our reviewers selected this car as their top pick.
Available in a variety stylish colors.
Tandem
If you're planning to have twins, you should consider a tandem pushchair that permits the children to be seated together so that they can see each one another. They are ideal for Pushchair Twin activities like visiting the zoo, because the kids will be able to gaze at all the animals together. They are also great for parents who need to keep an eye on their toddler and the other eye on their infant since they can look at both simultaneously.
Some tandem pushchairs are extremely flexible, as they can be converted back to single mode. This is especially useful for families with more than two kids (or only your oldest child doesn't need a buggy anymore). This will help you avoid having to store a buggy empty, which can be expensive.
For instance for instance, the Cybex Venus can be used in both mono and double mode, push chairs and prams features a clever frame that expands widthways to accommodate an extra seat. It's not the lightest of pushchairs, but it does come with a large basket for shopping which is located behind the front seat in double mode (and at the back of the seat in mono mode). The seats can be placed to face each other, or one can be set higher, so that it can look over the other and see what they are doing.
Other double tandem pushchairs, such as the Joolz Geo 3 can seat one on top of the other or side-by-side. The sleek, compact frame makes it easy to maneuver through doors and supermarket aisles. Certain models can be used on rough terrain, or for an exercise walk due to their large rear wheels and four-wheel suspension.
Another advantage of a tandem pushchair is that it will often include two carrycots, or a car seat, and buggy seat. You can save money by establishing a travel system at the beginning and not making separate purchases. Be aware that tandems are heavier and longer and may be less stable when you bump into kerbs and going over uneven surfaces. They also need dismantling to fit into cars.
