5 People You Should Be Getting To Know In The Twin Pushchair Industry

What to Look For in a Twin Pushchair

A twin pushchair is an ideal option if you have two kids or children of a similar age. They have two seats for your little ones and usually come with comfortable carrycots for infants and also compatibility with car seats for older toddlers.

Look out for models that have easy-to use push handles as well as a GIANT basket. Add-ons like cups and a snack tray for kids and parents are also useful.

Tandem

The classic tandem twin pushchair is side-by-side and allows the children to look at each other. This is the preferred style for some parents who feel it less likely to cause sibling rivalries over which side to sit in. It is also ideal when visiting places such as the zoo, where both children are able to see each other clearly. Tandem buggies are more spacious than single buggies, however they also are wider and longer when pushed.

Some twin buggies begin as a single pushchair and can be expanded to accommodate two seats or carrycots using an adapter. This is an economical option for families expecting more than one child and it means that you won't have to purchase a new buggy when your older child is outgrowing it. However, it may not be a good option for twin babies in the beginning as they'll need to be similar in age and weight.

The jogger is a second type of twin buggy that can be used as a single or double buggy, and can hold two car seats. It has an air-filled tire and a swivel-forward wheel which means it can be used for off-road trails. It is heavier than other models but it also has durability.

The Phil & Ted Sport Double Jogger can be used either with the seat in the main compartment, or with an innovative double kit that attaches directly to the single seat. It features one swivel wheel at the front and an all-wheel suspension, which makes it more stable than other joggers we have tested. It also works with a variety of car seats.

This narrow stroller, which is single to double, is perfect for urban adventures. Its simple maneuverability and large basket make it perfect for urban adventures. It has an UPF50plus sun canopy that can be extended to provide shade and a peekaboo view from the front seat so that both children can take in the view. The model doesn't come with an inbuilt recline, but it can be combined with a Roma Gemini carrycot (PS100 each) to create a lay-flat area for infants and newborns. It also fits an infant seat, making it a three-seater option for older children.

Convertible

A convertible twin pushchair is an adaptable option that allows you to alter the layout as your kids develop. It is initially a single pram with adaptors that connect to the frame to allow for an additional seat, carrycot or car seat. These models tend to be larger than the typical buggy, but are able to fit through doorways and are easier to maneuver through kerbs and up and down. They also permit you to use a toddler seat and infant car seat or two carrycots side-byside which is great for siblings of varying age.

The iCandy Peach 7 double buggy side by side buggy is a great example of this type. It can be configured in 25 different ways using seats, car seat and carrycots. The Peach 7 from the iCandy brand is a fantastic example of a cheap double buggy-buggy that can be configured in 25 different ways by using car seats, seats and carrycots. In addition, the smart and intuitive one-handed recline lever on the back of the seat unit makes it easy to get your child in a lie-flat position.

The Uppababy Vista V2 is another model of a convertible twin stroller (view Google) that has removable seats and can be set up to face forward or reverse which makes it suitable for twins of all ages. The RumbleSeat and PiggyBack riding boards which attach to the middle frame could accommodate the third child.

Multiple configurations

The seating arrangement of your twin pushchair can have a significant impact on its performance. It is important to look for several options that will allow you to change the direction your child's seat is positioned based on their mood, circumstances or even as they become. The Bugaboo Donkey 5 Twin is an example of a product that is extremely versatile. It has reversible seats and bassinets, which allows siblings to face each other, you or embark on a new adventure. The frame's clever design can be expanded to accommodate the additional seat. It can be used in either Mono or double running buggy mode with a variety of accessories that are available for both types of configuration.

A popular choice of configuration for new parents is the side-by-side arrangement, in which one child sits behind the other. This kind of twin buggy has the benefit of giving both children the same view. It generally narrower than a single pushchair, making it easier to maneuver in public spaces and through doors. The Cybex Gazelle S Pushchair, for instance, has over 20 different configurations so you can pick the ideal configuration for your family, and it can also accommodate two carrycots or car seats in tandem mode.

The Valco Jump Seat attachment allows you to convert this side-by-side double buggy, which is designed for twins, into a Jogger. Both kids will face forward. This allows you to keep on top of your running partner and keep your kids entertained as they explore.

In general, twin pushchairs tend to be a bit heavier than single pushchairs due to additional features like larger baskets and extra-padded seats, so consider your lifestyle before deciding on this type of stroller. It is possible that they're a little heavier than a single stroller, and you'll need to purchase additional accessories, such as sunshades or rain covers to protect your twins.

It is equally important to check the quality of a double pushchair, as it's to ensure that it's in line with your budget and lifestyle. To get the most value for money you can choose a brand that place a high priority on sustainability and offer detailed details on their manufacturing methods. You can also gain valuable insight into the best twin pushchairs for you by joining parenting groups on the internet or attending local events where you can talk to other parents about their experience and suggestions.

Stores

You'll have to carry a lot of stuff for twins, so look for a spacious undercarriage basket with plenty of pockets or compartments to store your essentials. The storage areas should be easy to access even if the seats are in different positions. The UPPAbaby Vista 2 is able to accommodate twins as well as a baby and toddler. It also has space for a 'PiggyBack' board (PS120) for older children. The Roma Gemini is able to accommodate two babies with the cocoons that come with it (PS59 each). Because of the new design, it is possible to attach the cocoons either facing either way or backwards. It also has a convenient folding stand that makes it easy to store between uses.
