What to Look For in a Twin Pushchair

A twin pushchair is a great choice if you have two children or kids who are similar in age. They provide two places for your infants to travel, and usually come with comfy carrycots or chairs for newborns, as well as car seats that are compatible with older toddlers.

Look out for models with easy to use push handles and a GIANT basket. Accessories such as cups and snack trays for both kids and parents are also handy.

Tandem

The classic tandem twin pushchair lets both children face each other. Some parents prefer this type of pushchair since it is less likely to cause siblings to fight over who gets which seat. It is also a good option for trips to places like the zoo, where both children can easily see each other. Tandems can be more spacious than single buggies, however they are also larger and longer when they are pushed.

A few twin buggies are initially designed as single and double stroller pushchairs and then can be expanded to accommodate two seats or carrycots by putting in an adapter. This is a great option for families with more than one child. You don't need to buy a brand new buggy when your older child is no longer using it. However, it might not be the best choice for twin babies in the early months as they'll need to be similar in age and weight.

Another kind of twin buggy is the jogger, which can be used in a double or single mode and can accommodate two car seats. It has a swivel front wheel and air-filled tyres, so it can handle off road double buggy-road trails, too. It's a bit heavier than other models however the extra weight comes with the added durability.

The Phil & Ted Sport double infant stroller Jogger can be used either with the seat in the main compartment or with an innovative double kit that can be attached directly to the single seat. With the single swivel wheel on the front and all-wheel suspension, it can handle rough terrain better than other joggers we've tested and is compatible with a range of car seats too.

This stroller is narrow and single-to-double. It is ideal for urban adventures with its easy manoeuvrability and large shopping basket. It comes with an UPF 50+ sun canopy that extends to provide real shade and an open window in the front seat, so both children can enjoy the view. The model doesn't come with an integrated recline, but it can be used in conjunction with a Roma Gemini carrycot (PS100 each) to create a reclining space for infants and newborns. It can also be used with a toddler seat to make it a three-seater option for older children.

Convertible

A convertible twin pushchair offers a flexible option, allowing you to adapt the configuration of your pushchair as your kids grow. It is initially one pram but has adaptors that attach to the frame for a second seat, carrycot or car seat. These types are generally larger than the standard buggy but can often fit through doorways and are much easier to maneuver through kerbs and up and down. These models allow you to use two carrycots or a car seat for toddlers side by side, which is great for siblings.

The iCandy Peach 7 double buggy is a fantastic example of this type. It can be set up in 25 different ways using seats, car seats and carrycots. Our test team liked how light and slim it is for a dual-seater, and also provides a large and comfortable ride for kids. Additionally, the clever and intuitive one-handed recline lever located 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 with seats that are removable and can be configured to face forward or reverse, making it suitable for twins of all age groups. The RumbleSeat and PiggyBack riding boards that are attached to the middle frame can accommodate an additional child.

Multiple configurations

The seating arrangement can have an impact on the functioning of your twin pushchair. You should look for several options that will allow you to change the direction in which your child's seat faces depending on their mood, circumstances or even as they develop. The Bugaboo Donkey 5 Twin is an example of a product that is extremely adaptable. It has reversible bassinet and seat configurations, that allow siblings to be facing each other, you or embark on a new adventure. The frame can be expanded to allow for an additional seat. It can be used either in Mono or Double mode. A range of accessories are available for both configurations.

The side-by-side arrangement is a popular choice for new parents. One child is seated behind the second. This type of twin buggy has the benefit of giving both children the same view. It is typically narrower than one pushchair, making it easier to maneuver in public spaces and through doors. The Cybex Gazelle S Pushchair, for instance, comes in over 20 different configurations so you can choose the perfect set-up for your family, and it can even take two car seats or carrycots in tandem mode.

The Valco Jump Seat attachment allows you to turn this side-byside double tandem pushchair buggy, which is specifically designed for twins, into the jogger. Both kids will be facing towards the forward direction. This lets you keep pace with your running companion while keeping your kids entertained.

Think about your lifestyle when selecting a twin pushchair. They tend to be heavier due to the extra features such as bigger baskets and padded seats. It is possible that they are a bit heavier than a single stroller, and that you need to purchase additional accessories, such as rain covers or sunshades in order to protect your twins.

Examining the quality of twin pushchairs is just as important as making sure it is within your budget and lifestyle. Find brands that prioritize sustainability and provide detailed information on their manufacturing processes to ensure that you're getting the most value for money. You can also gain valuable insight into the best double stroller twin pushchair for you by joining parenting groups online or at local events to talk to other parents about their experience and recommendations.

Storage

If you have twins, you'll need carry a lot. Choose a vehicle with a large undercarriage basket and plenty of pockets and compartments to store your essentials. Make sure that the storage spaces are easily accessible using the seats positioned in different positions too. The UPPAbaby Vista 2 can carry twins or a toddler and baby and also add a 'PiggyBack' board for older kids (PS120). The Roma Gemini can accommodate two newborns in the included cocoons (PS59 each) and the rejigged design means you can attach them facing either way. It has a convenient standing fold that makes it simple to put away between usages.
