Buying a Twin Pushchair
When you are looking for a twin pushchair it's important to think about the different configurations that are available. The most popular choices are twin double buggies and side-by-side double buggies.
The iCandy Strawberry Twin buggy is loved by parents and will grow along with your family. It starts life as a single, but will take 2 carrycots or car seats in double mode.
Easy to Manoeuvre
If you're taking twins for a walk or have a toddler and baby at the same stage, a double pushchair can be an essential tool when it comes to keeping them happy. Double buggys or twin prams, as they are also known, come in many different configurations that will suit any family. Some are side by side and others have two fronts and a rear to accommodate small spaces. Some are able to be converted into single prams once your children have outgrown them. This is a great choice for families with growing children.
Side-by-side twin buggies (or tandem twin buggies) are easy to steer since their front wheels can often be locked to provide added stability, and there is usually more storage space behind them. They are smaller than other twin buggies, and are easier to maneuver through doorways and on public transport. They tend to be lighter than other twin prams pushchairs, so can be more compact too However, you may find them harder to get up and down kerbs on uneven terrain.
If you're looking for a more streamlined twin pushchair, the iCandy Peach is a stylish option that comes in a variety of colours. It's also a great twin pushchair for infants and newborns, due to its cozy newborn cocoons that create an enclosed, flat space. It also has a small shopping basket but has an impressive suspension, so it's able to be able to handle bumpy surfaces.
A lot of twin pram buggies are able to be used as travel system prams systems, meaning they have car seats that can be connected to the frame. This is helpful when traveling with babies and toddlers since you don't have to move them from the car to their pushchair. This could disturb them. The UPPaby Vista 2 is a twin-pushchair that can also be used as a travel system. It comes with a parent-facing mode that is perfect for babies.
Tandem twin buggies were designed for children with similar ages. They are more likely to have separate seats for each child. They are less likely to have carrycots for babies younger than six months and tend to be larger than single buggies. They can still be easily maneuvered, however and a lot of them have an independent seat recline so that both kids can sit up or be reclined to snooze.
Easy to fold
If you're considering buying a double pushchair, then you'll need it to fold. This will make it easier for you to move the buggy around, and also put it away in smaller spaces. You can choose from a variety of ways to fold your pushchair. Some models include a shoulder strap that makes it easier to carry.
Make sure you know before purchasing if yours can be folded using one hand. A few of the top models can be folded with the seat removed, which makes them smaller. This can be particularly helpful in the case of a lack of storage space.
Another thing to look out for is whether your twin pushchair is able to fit through doors that are standard. The larger width of tandem buggies may be a problem and it's a good idea to measure the width of your doors before you purchase. If this is an issue there are slimmer models available that are designed to make it easier to pass through doors.
In our tests, the UPPAbaby Vista was a winner for being easy to fold and compact when not in use. It can hold two infant car seats and two toddler seats. This makes it an ideal choice for growing families. It also comes with a large storage basket as well as rubber tires with foam that won't fall flat.
It's more affordable than other models we tested and is a great option for twins or babies of similar age groups. It can be used with both the comfort of a carrycot and a seat unit, and it can even accommodate three kids with the addition of UPPAbaby's PiggyBack board (sold separately).
If you're in search of a cost-effective dual stroller, check out the Chicco Cortina Together. It can accommodate two Chicco infant car seats, so it's suitable for twins from birth. It comes with a large storage basket, a simple to use handlebar, and brakes.

It's good to know that not all double buggies have to be bulky, large and difficult-to-store. In fact there are many models designed to be compact strollers and easily foldable. This lets them be compact and make it easier to get into and out of a vehicle.
Some twin pushchairs are also light, making them a breeze to transport and cope with trains, buses, and shopping aisles. The UPPAbaby Vista 2 is a excellent example, with its light frame and four-wheel suspension, making it easy to handle rough terrain. With the addition of a "elevator board," it can carry twins or a toddler and baby.
Most twin buggys offer ample storage space However, it is important to determine whether this is still accessible with both seats in use. Some side-byside configurations are tricky. The 'one above and one below' tandem style can also restrict access for the legs of a child. Find large baskets, pockets and compartments which can store everything from toys and snacks to sun cream and rain covers.
You'll also want to consider the types of accessories that are available. Some twin pushchairs come with various extras that can be beneficial, from special drink holders for the little ones to snack tray for older children. Find models with these features, as well as an integrated sun canopy, raincover, and hood.
Many twin pushchairs are convertible into a travel system that can accommodate families growing. They come with the option of adding the option of a car seat, buggy seat or carrycot. This can be particularly useful for toddlers and infants, as it ensures that they're safe, comfortable and ready for every adventure. The egg2 is popular because of its sleek design and its versatility. However, it may be heavier than some competitors.
If you're on a tight budget, there are some excellent alternatives that are priced less than PS200. The iCandy Pegasus 2 with its large basket and storage that is easy to access across all seating positions is an excellent alternative. It also comes with a padded leg support and a rain cover.
Easy to transport
If you intend to use your twin buggy on long-distance family trips and city tours, it's worth investing into a model which can be folded down to fit in the trunk or boot of a rental car. A compact and easy-to-manage design will also make it easier to navigate narrow aisles and doors on public transport.
There are models that fold with seats removed to make more compact storage. They are best used at home. You'll want to consider the weight of the buggy as well - heavier double buggies tend to be more difficult to manoeuvre and might struggle to navigate up or down kerbs.
Most twin pushchairs are fixed side-by-side designs, and some can accommodate two carrycots, or seat units (and sometimes a third). Some can also be used for children who are similar age or for siblings with an extremely small age gap. The fantastic Bugaboo Donkey 5 Duo is a great example of this and features convertible seats that let the kids face each other or with you and different designs that are suitable from the time of birth until toddlerhood.
