Buying a Twin Pushchair From Birth
The stylish and sleek pushchair expands to a twin in a single click. In twin mode, the frame is narrower but still offers enough space to store a shopping basket beside each seat/carrycot, or it can take two carrycots or car seats to suit siblings of varying age.
The Venus comes with a new Cocoon which provides a lie-flat, world-facing environment for infants. The UPPAbaby team has even updated the design so that you can attach two cocoons together.
Easy to Manoeuvre
One of the most commonly used baby products following the car seat twin pushchairs will be the baby's mainstay for a long time, so it's crucial that it's easy to manoeuvre. Our home-based testers loved the Roma Gemini for this - it's light, folds small and has superb steering. It also comes with plenty of accessories that rival brands don't sell separately, like the seat liner, which is padded and fleecey.
Silver Cross Wave is a ideal choice for twins and siblings of different ages, since it can be used with two car seats or carrycots (it can also be used in mono mode). The clever frame can be expanded in width when you need the double travel stroller seat, yet it maintains the same footprint when in mono mode which makes it easier to navigate narrow passageways.
Our testers loved the look of this stroller and its numerous features. But it was also simple to use. It's a smart fold that is a single-click and it's also compatible with a lot of car seats, so it's easy to put them in and go. It's a bit big in thule double stroller mode, but you can buy a "sidepack' to make it smaller for PS45.
Convenient storage
If you have more than one child and a twin pushchair for birth with a handy and easily accessible storage area will help you keep things organized. Select a model with a large basket under the seat to store all of the extra items like changing mats for babies and a nappy bag. A handy cup holder as well as snack tray are 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 (official Justpin blog), with one seat in front of the other, are great for children of different age groups, but can be a little more difficult to maneuver through tight spaces than side-byside models. The CYBEX Gazelle S and Silver Cross Wave offer the best tandem options for twins, while the Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double is more budget-friendly and can take two infant car seat carriers or bassinets in double buggy with car seat mode.
The UPPAbaby Vista 2 stroller is a twin stroller that is able to be used from birth. It can be used with two infant car seat or carrycots and in double mode. You can also add the UPPAbaby PiggyBack Board allow it to be used by three children. In single-seat mode, it has plenty of storage space too as a large under-seat storage basket that's big enough to hold bags of shopping. It comes with a huge canopy that provides excellent protection from sun or rain. The clever peekaboo hoods allow you to keep an eye on your baby.
Comfortable for both babies
The best twin pushchairs from birth will be designed to keep both children at ease during strolls. Be sure to look for padded seats recline features, recline features, and adjustable bar for the calf. These features allow your child to relax and stretch or sit and stand double stroller straight up to observe their environment.
It is also recommended to look for twin strollers with one handlebar that allows you to control the stroller with one hand. This will help you to navigate busy shopping streets and navigate tight turns. Some double buggies come with two handlebars, but this may be difficult to control and could require you to use both hands to push.
Some twin pushchairs can accommodate various combinations of carrycots and infant car seats, which means you can alter to your baby's needs as they develop. The Peach 7 is a great choice for siblings with varying age ranges, as it comes with two seats that are suitable from birth and an infant carrycot that faces the parent.
The UPPAbaby PiggyBack Board can be connected to the UPPAbaby Vista 2 for use with twins, a toddler and a baby, or three children. It is easy to fold and folds down compactly.
Tandem buggies have more sleek appearance than side-by-side models and are a great option for twins. One seat is padded and reclines to a full-angle for newborns and the other is more upright and appropriate for toddlers. Some can be converted into a single pushchair by removing the front seat. They aren't easy to fit on to public transport, and they may not be as stable as a single pushchair travelling up and down kerbs.
Certain models can fold down smaller than others. This is important when your storage space in your home is limited. Egg2 is a beautiful choice that can be used for a single to double pushchair or a double. It also has a range of carrycots as well as baby car seats so you can modify it as your twins grow larger. It is available in many colors and is stylish contemporary style.
Easy to clean
Regular maintenance and cleaning will keep your twin pushchair in excellent condition for years to come. This will help avoid problems like staining, odours, and the growth of mould and prolong its lifespan.
Start by vacuuming the pushchair to remove dirt and grime, as well as crumbs and crumbs in all areas using a nozzle that is flexible attachment. This will help get into the crevices and seams in the fabric parts, including the seat, canopy and basket.
After vacuuming, take off the seat covers pads, liners, and pads and wash them on a gentle cycle using gentle detergent for infants. To avoid corrosion and water damage, ensure that all parts are dry prior to rebuilding.
Non-fabric parts, like the hinges, wheels and the folding parts of your twin pushchair must be regularly cleaned with a clean cloth to get rid of any sticky messes or hardened odours. If necessary, use a silicone-based grease as recommended by the manufacturer to ensure smooth and consistent movement of all components. Regular inspections of your twin pushchair will reveal any signs of wear and tear, and allow you to fix these as soon as possible to reduce the risk of further problems.
