Choosing a Double Pushchair Twin

You'll need a double stroller to take your twins from A to B. Our range includes a range of twin prams as well as double buggies in various configurations to meet your family's requirements.

Find a pushchair that folds in a single step and is easy to carry into your car. You may also prefer a lighter design, especially if you're tackling busy high streets.

Side-by-Side

This is the most popular double pushchair. It usually seats two children side-by-side. They are usually bigger than single pushchairs. This can make them less able to maneuver on paths. It is also difficult to navigate between kerbs when a car seat is attached. However the extra width does mean that they're usually more comfortable to maneuver through doorways and are distributed more evenly making them less burdensome to carry around on your back.

Many models are able to be used as twin prams and accommodate a carrycot or two car seats. Some models can be converted into one mode with a basket to the side (like the Cybex Venus).

The Bugaboo Donkey 5 is a great illustration of this. In Twin Mode, you can fit the rear seat next to a carrycot. This lets you create an enclosed twin room and is perfect for babies. The pram shops near me also comes with a number of very cool accessories, such as the newborn cocoons that can be put on face either way (for twin-facing prams) or facing towards the front (for a normal single). It's not as light as other options, but it's really cleverly thought out.

Lightweight

Cybex is a brand known for its innovation and this pushchair converts to a single is no exception. Its clever frame expands widthways to accommodate two seats, and you can use it as a twin from birth with the addition of two infant cocoons (PS59 each) which provide enclosed, lie-flat areas for infants. It can also be used in an individual mode with only one child, thanks to a large basket that sits behind the seat. It also comes with rear and front suspensions that can handle bumps and uneven surfaces a little more easily. Our reviewers selected this car as their top prams pick.

Available in a variety of stylish colors.

Tandem

If you are planning to have twins you will require a pushchair travel system that is tandem. This allows the children to sit together and interact with each other. These are great for things like going to the zoo as the children can look at all the animals together. These are also great for parents who want to keep an eye on both their toddler and their baby at the same time.

Some tandem pushchairs offer extreme flexibility since they can be converted back to single mode. This is especially useful if you plan to have more children than two (or in the event that your child who is the oldest does not require an extra buggy). This will help you avoid having to store a buggy empty which can be costly.

For instance for instance, the Cybex Venus can be used in mono or double mode and has a smart frame that can be expanded to accommodate an extra seat. It's not the lightest of pushchairs, but it does come with a large shopping basket which is located behind the front seat when in double mode (and at the back of the seat in mono mode). The seats can be set up so that they face one other or higher up to be able to see what the other is doing.

Some double tandem pushchairs like the Joolz Geo 3, are capable of seating one over the other or side-by-side. The sleek, compact frame makes it easy to maneuver through doorways and supermarket aisles. Certain models can be used on uneven terrain or as an exercise walk due to their large rear wheels and four-wheel suspension.

A tandem pushchair can be used to carry two carrycots or a car and buggy seat. You can save money by creating an entire travel system from the beginning and not making separate purchases. Be aware that tandems are heavier and longer and may appear less stable when bumping into kerbs or navigating uneven surfaces. They also require dismantling to fit into cars.
