What to Look For in a Twin Pushchair

A twin pushchair is a great option for families with two kids or children with similar ages. They offer two spaces to transport your little ones and typically come with comfy carrycots or chairs for infants, and car seat compatibility for older toddlers.

Look out for models with easy to use push handles and a GIANT basket. Add-ons like cup holders and snack tray for kids and parents are also useful.

The classic tandem twin pushchair is side-by-side and allows the children to look at each other. This is the preferred style for some parents who feel it less likely to cause sibling rivalries over who is sitting where. It also works well for visiting places like the zoo where both kids can see each other easily. Tandems are generally more spacious than single buggys however they are generally wider and can feel long when being pushed.

A few twin buggies are initially designed as single pushchairs, but can be expanded to accommodate two seats or carrycots with the addition of an adapter. This is a great solution for families with more than one child. It's not necessary to buy a brand new buggy once your older child is no longer using it. However, it might not be a good option for twin babies in the beginning since they'll have to be similar in age and weight.

The jogger is a different kind of twin buggy that can be used as a single or double buggy that can be able to accommodate two car seats. It has a swivel front wheel and air-filled tyres so it can cope with off-road trails, too. It is a bit heavier than some other options but the extra weight brings an increased durability.

The Phil & Ted Sport double infant stroller jogger can be used with either the main compartment, or with a handy double kit that can be attached to the existing single seat. It features one swivel on the front and an all-wheel suspension which makes it more stable than other joggers that we tested. It's also compatible with many car seats.

This compact, single to double stroller is perfect for urban adventures. Its ease of maneuverability and large basket make it perfect for urban adventures. It has an UPF50and sun canopy that can be extended to provide real shade, and a peekaboo view in the front seat so that both children can take in the view. The model doesn't come with a built-in recline but can be combined with a Roma Gemini carrycot (PS100 each) to create a reclining space for infants and newborns. It also fits an infant seat, making it a three-seater for older children.

Convertible

A convertible twin pushchair is an adaptable option that allows you to alter the layout as your children get older. The frame is initially one pushchair but has adaptors that can be attached to allow for the addition of a second chair, carrycot or a car seat. These types are generally larger than the standard buggy but can often fit through doorways and are easier to maneuver between kerbs. These models let you use two carrycots or a car seat for toddlers side by side which is ideal for siblings.

The iCandy Peach 7 double pushchairs buggy is a great example of this type. It can be configured in 25 different ways using seats, car seats and carrycots. Our test team liked how light and slim it is for a double-seater, and also provides a large comfortable, sturdy ride for the kids. The intuitive and clever one-handed reclining lever at the back of the seat unit also makes it easy for your child to lay on their backs.

The Uppababy Vista V2 is another model of a convertible twin stroller with seats that are removable and can be set up to face forward or reverse making it suitable for twins of all age groups. It can also accommodate an additional child on the RumbleSeat or PiggyBack riding board that is attached to the middle of the frame.

Multiple configurations

The seating configuration can have significant impact on the functionality of your twin pushchair. Be sure to look for a variety of options so that you can change the direction of your child's seats according to their mood or the circumstances and continue to use them as they grow. The Bugaboo Donkey 5 Twin, for instance, is incredibly versatile, with reversible seat and bassinet configurations that let siblings to face each other, you, or the exciting road ahead. The innovative frame can be extended to accommodate an extra seat and can be used in either Mono or Double mode with a variety of accessories that are available to suit both configurations.

A common choice of configuration for new parents is the side-by-side arrangement, which means that one child is seated behind the other. This kind 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 through public spaces and through doors. The Cybex gazelle S pushchair, for instance has more than 20 different configurations which means you can pick the best configuration for your child. It can also take two car seats or carrycots in tandem mode.

If you want to take their twins for a jog or go on more adventurous adventures, the Valco Jump Seat attachment turns this double buggy side-by-side into a jogger with both kids facing forwards. This lets you keep pace with your running partner and keep the kids happy while they play.

Take into consideration your lifestyle when you choose a twin pushchair. They tend to be heavier because they have additional features, such as larger baskets and extra padded seats. You might also notice that they are a bit heavier than a single stroller, and you'll need purchase additional accessories, such as rain covers or sunshades to safeguard your twins.

Checking the quality of a twin pushchair is just as important as ensuring that it is within your budget and lifestyle. Look for brands that prioritise sustainability and offer specific information on their manufacturing processes to ensure you're getting the most value for money. You can also gain valuable insights into the best twin pushchairs for you by joining parenting groups online or attending local events to talk to other parents about their experience and recommendations.

Stores

You'll be carrying lots of stuff for twins so make sure you have a large undercarriage basket with plenty of compartments or pockets to store your necessities. Make sure that the storage spaces are easily accessible using the seats in various positions too. The UPPAbaby Vista 2 is able to accommodate twins, a baby and a toddler. It also has room for a 'PiggyBack' table (PS120) for older children. The Roma Gemini is able to accommodate two newborns with the cocoons included (PS59 each). With the new design, it is possible to attach the cocoons either facing forward or backward. It comes with a convenient standing fold that makes it simple to store between use.
