Choosing a Double Pushchair Twin
If you have twins, you need a double pushchair travel system in order to get them from A to B. Our selection includes a variety of twin prams as well as double buggies that come in a variety of configurations to meet your family's requirements.
Look for a stroller that can fold in one step and then easily tucked away into your boot. You could also opt for a lighter design, especially in high traffic streets.
Side-by-Side
They are the most popular type of double pushchair and usually can accommodate two children in a row. They tend to be wider than single pushchairs. This can make them less able to maneuver on paths. It may also be difficult to navigate between kerbs when the car seat is in place. The extra size allows them to move more easily through doors and also more evenly distributed so that it is easier for you to carry them on your back.
Many models are able to be used as twin Prams pushchairs prams (www.annunciogratis.net) and accommodate a carrycot or two car seats. Some can even convert into one mode by adding a basket alongside (like the Cybex Venus).
One of the most excellent examples of this is the Bugaboo Donkey 5 which, in Twin Mode, allows you to place the rear seat and a carrycot side by side. This allows you to create an enclosed twin room and is perfect for babies. The pram sets also comes with a couple of very cool accessories, such as the newborn cocoons which can be attached to the front or back (for twin-facing prams) or facing towards the front (for a normal single). It's not as light like other options, but it's really cleverly constructed.
Lightweight
Cybex is known for innovation and this pushchair converts to a single is no different. The frame can be extended to accommodate an additional seat. You can use the pushchair as twins from birth by putting in two cocoons for babies for a total of PS59. These cocoons create enclosed lie-flat spaces. It can also be used as an individual mode with only one child thanks to a large shopping basket that sits behind the seat. It has both front and rear suspension which means it can take on bumps and uneven surfaces more easily. A top pick among our reviewers.
Available in a variety fashionable colors.
Tandem
If you're planning to have twins, you should consider a pushchair that can allow the children to be seated side by side and look at each other. They are ideal for trips to the zoo since the kids can watch the animals together. They are also great for parents who must keep one eye on their toddler and the other eye on their infant because they can see both of them simultaneously.
Some tandem pushchairs are extremely adaptable, as they can be converted to single mode. This is especially handy if you're planning to have more than two children (or only your oldest child is no longer a need for a buggy). This means that you won't be left with an empty pushchair that you need to store away and can be expensive.
For instance, the Cybex Venus can be used in both mono and double mode, and features a clever frame that expands widthways to accommodate a second seat. It's not the tiniest pushchair, but it has a large basket that can be placed behind the front seat in double mode, or in the back when it's in mono mode. The seats can be placed so that they face each other or higher up to see what the other is doing.
Other double tandem pushchairs, like the Joolz Geo 3, are capable of seating one over the other or side-by-side. They have a sleek, compact travel pram frame that makes it easier to maneuver through doors and aisles in supermarkets, and some models can even be used as a jogging stroller on rough terrain, thanks to a four-wheel suspension as well as large rear wheels.
Another benefit of a tandem pushchair is that it can use two carrycots or a car seat and a buggy seat. You can save money by creating an entire travel system from the beginning and not making separate purchases. It is important to remember that tandems are heavier and longer than single pushchairs, and are less stable when as you go over uneven surfaces. They also need dismantling to fit into cars.
