Are Pushchair As Important As Everyone Says

Choosing a Double Pushchair Twin

If you have twins, you need a double pushchair to take them from A to B. Our range includes twin prams as well as buggies that can be set up in various ways to meet your needs.

Choose a stroller which can be folded in one step and then easily tucked away into your car. You may also prefer a lighter design, especially when you're on busy high streets.

Side-by-Side

This is the most popular double pushchair stroller. It usually seats two children side by side. They're generally larger than single pushchairs. This can make them less agile on paths. It can also be difficult to maneuver through kerbs with the car seat is in place. The extra width makes them easier to maneuver through doorways and also more evenly distributed so that it is easier to carry around on your back.

They can be used as twin prams from birth and many models can accommodate a carrycot or two car seats. Some can even be converted to a single mode with a basket alongside (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 carrycot side-by-side. This creates a fully enclosed space for twins, and is ideal for newborns. This pram bags also comes with a couple of really cool accessories, including the newborn cocoons which can be attached to face either direction (for a twin-facing pram) or facing inwards (for a standard single). It is not as lightweight like other options however it's very cleverly created.

Lightweight

Cybex is a brand known for its innovation and this pushchair that converts from a single to a double is no different. The frame can be expanded to accommodate another seat. It is possible to use the pushchair as twins from birth by putting in two cocoons for babies, each costing PS59. These cocoons are enclosed and create lie-flat spaces. The large shopping basket behind the seat can be used in mono mode for a single child. It comes with front and rear suspensions that allows it to handle bumps and uneven surfaces better. Our reviewers chose this car as their top pick.

Available in a variety of elegant colors.

Tandem

If you are planning to have twins you will need a tandem pushchair. This will allow each child to sit and interact with each other. They are perfect for visiting the zoo, as children can watch the animals together. They are also ideal for parents who want to monitor both their toddler and baby simultaneously.

Some tandem pushchairs offer ultra versatility as they can change back to single mode. This is especially useful when you are planning to have more than two children (or if your eldest child does not require the buggy anymore). This will save you from having to store an empty buggy which can be expensive.

For example the Cybex Venus can be used in double or mono mode and has a smart frame that can be expanded to accommodate an extra seat. It's not the lightest of pushchairs however it does come with an ample basket that can be placed behind the front seat in double mode or at the back if in mono mode. The seats can either be placed so that they face each other or higher up to be able to see what the other is 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 aisles in supermarkets. Certain models can be used on rough terrain or for a jogging path due to their large rear wheels and four-wheel suspension.

Another advantage of a tandem pushchair is that it can include two carrycots, or a car seat and buggy seat. You can save money by establishing an overall travel strollers system from the beginning, and avoiding separate purchases. Be aware that tandems are heavier and longer, and they may appear less stable when you bump into the kerbs or going over uneven surfaces. These pushchairs also need to be dismantled for fitting into cars.
