Twin Pushchair Isn t As Difficult As You Think

Buying a Twin Pushchair From Birth

The sleek and stylish pushchair can be expanded to twin in just one click. When it's twin, the frame is narrower but still has space for a shopping basket alongside each seat/carrycot. It can be used with two carrycots or car seats to accommodate siblings of various age.

The Venus also includes a newborn cocoon to create a lie-flat environment that is a parent-facing or world-facing option for infants. UPPAbaby have even rejigged the design to allow you attach two cocoons side by side double stroller by side.

Easy to Manoeuvre

A twin pushchair is one of the most popular baby products, after a car-seat. It will be the baby's primary residence for a long time, so it’s important to make it easy to maneuver. The Roma Gemini was a favorite of our home testers due to the fact that it is lightweight it folds down small and has a great steering. It comes with a variety of extras, which competitors charge separately.

The Silver Cross Wave is another excellent choice for twins or siblings with different ages since it's designed to accommodate two seats and car seats (it can even be used with 2 carrycots in mono mode). Its clever frame expands in width when you need to use the double seat, yet maintains a single footprint in mono mode so it's more maneuverable through narrow passageways than side-by-side buggies.

Our test subjects loved the design of this pushchair and its many extras. But it was also simple to use. It folds easily with a single click and is compatible with all car seat models. It can be a bit long when it's in double pram and pushchair mode but you can purchase a "sidepack" for PS45 to reduce it to a smaller size.

Convenient storage

A twin pushchair with storage space that is easily accessible and convenient can help you stay organized for more than one baby. Select a model with an ample basket beneath for storing all the extra accessories such as baby changing mats, rain covers and nappy bags. A handy cup holder and snack tray is also an excellent choice, as it saves you reaching behind your children for an ice-cold drink or snack when they start to get thirsty or hungry.

Tandem twin pushchairs that have one seat ahead of the other, are perfect for siblings of varying age, but they can be a bit more difficult to maneuver through small spaces than side-by-side models. The CYBEX Gazelle S and Silver Cross Wave provide the most suitable tandem options for twins, while the Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double is more affordable and can be used with two infant car seats or bassinets in cheap double stroller mode.

The UPPAbaby Vista 2 is an amazing twin stroller from birth. It can be used with two infant car seats or carrycots in double stroller with infant car seat-mode (you can also add the UPPAbaby PiggyBack board to make it suitable for three kids). It's a great size with plenty of storage space when used in single-seat mode. There's also an under-seat basket that can hold an enormous shopping cart. It comes with a huge canopy that offers great protection from rain or sun. The clever peekaboo hoods allow you to keep an eye on your child.

Baby is a comfortable fit for both

The best twin pushchairs starting from birth are designed to keep both children comfortable while strolling. Look for calf bar adjustable as well as padded seats and recline features. They will allow your child to relax and stretch out or stand up straight to take in their surroundings.

It's also worth looking for twin prams with one handlebar to make it easier to steer the pram with one hand. This will allow you to navigate through busy shopping streets or make tight turns. Double buggies may have two handlebars however this isn't always easy to manage and may require you to use both hands to push.

Some twin pushchairs can be used with different combinations of infant car seats and carrycots. This means you can adapt the stroller as your baby grows. The Peach 7 is a great option for siblings of different age groups, since it has two seats that can be used from birth and an infant carrycot that faces the parent.

Other options include the UPPAbaby Vista 2 which can be used with twins or a toddler and a baby or even three kids by attaching the UPPAbaby PiggyBack board. It is easy to use and folds up easily.

Tandem buggies are a great option for twins. They offer a more streamlined appearance than side-by-side models. One seat is padded and reclines to a full-angle for babies and the other is more upright and suitable for toddlers. They can be transformed into a single stroller by removing the seat in front. They can be difficult to attach to public transport and might not be as sturdy as a single pushchair moving up and down kerbs.

Some models fold down smaller than others. This is crucial when your storage space in your home is limited. The egg2 is a chic option that can be used as a double to single buggy or single To double buggy and has a wide range of carrycot and infant car seats, so you can adapt it as your twins develop. It comes in a variety of colors and features a stylish contemporary design.

Easy to clean

Regular maintenance and cleaning will keep your twin pushchair in a great condition for long time to come. This will help prevent issues like staining, odours, and mould growth and also extend the life of your pushchair.

Begin by vacuuming the pushchair to loosen up dirt dust, crumbs and grime from all areas with a flexible nozzle attachment. This will let you reach into every crevice, seams and fabric components such as the seat canopy, and basket.

After vacuuming, remove the seat covers pads, liners, and cushions and wash them in a gentle cycle using gentle detergent for infants. To prevent corrosion and water damage ensure that all parts are completely dried before reassembling.

Non-fabric components, for example the hinges, wheels and folding components of your twin pushchair need to be cleaned regularly using a clean cloth to get rid of any sticky residues or hardened odours. If necessary, a silicone-based lubricant must be used in accordance with the recommendations of the manufacturer to ensure smooth and consistent movement of all components. Regularly checking your twin pushchair will help you spot any signs of wear, which will allow you to repair them as soon as possible.
