Buying a Twin Pushchair

Direct4Baby provides a range of innovative twin and double buggy for twins pushchairs.

Some of our favourites are the egg2 dual-use pushchairs. They open in a new window, which allows you to modify them to toddlers and infants with a combination of seat units and carrycots.

Side-by-Side

A side-byside double buggy can have the children positioned on opposite sides, and can usually accommodate 2 fixed seats. They are often narrower than a single pushchair, so easier to pass through doors and are more evenly weighed, making them easy to manoeuvre up and down kerbs.

Some seats can be adjusted to ensure that a child can lie flat and others are designed to accommodate carrycots. This type of twin bed is a good choice for babies and toddlers.

Some models can even be converted into a single buggy with an enormous shopping basket on top of it, such as the Cybex Aton M5. This is a unique alternative that is not only practical, but also fun for kids. However, it is essential to make sure that any additional accessories are compatible with the model before you buy.

Tandem

The tandem pushchair sits behind the twin pushchair and provides two child-friendly spaces. This arrangement is ideal for children of the same age as it lets you put your infant in a cozy carrycot and your toddler in a seat unit, or a car seat (though not all models are designed to take both). Many of the best twin pushchairs come with an upholstered front seat that reclines and an upright seat in the rear.

The Cybex Venus is a great example of this kind of twin pushchair. The rear seat is full recline and is suitable from birth, while the front seat can be positioned either way - this means that your child's younger one can look at their older sibling or you can face them out to the world to have more interaction. Include a newborn cocoon on both seats for a lie-flat place for your children. The rear seat has a hood, raincover and an entire recline.

If you prefer, you can choose an option like the Joolz Geo 3 which has been designed with a rear seat that opens up to reveal a spacious shopping basket when not in use. This makes it easy to move a double pushchair around narrow doorways. It's an excellent option for urban excursions. The curvaceous frame and suspension on four wheels makes it ideal for uneven terrains.

Some tandem pushchairs, like the UPPAbaby Vista 2, start as single buggies, after which a second seat can be added either in front, behind or underneath. This is a low-cost option that will last longer and give you the most flexibility if you're expecting a second child in the near future.

The egg2 is an iconic example of this kind of twin pushchair, which has been designed for a range of configurations and has been loved by parents due to its sleek design and high-end fabrics. It can be used as a single unit with an infant seat and carrycot or as a double running stroller with two seat units or even as a three-child family rig with the addition of a 'piggy back' board that attaches to the back of the chassis.

Convenience

When you're strolling through bustling shopping centers or taking in tranquil park walks, the right twin pushchair can change your daily routine. There are many choices from tandem pushchairs that align your children side by side to compact twin buggies made for small spaces. The most important thing to consider is whether or not the twin pushchair is sturdy enough to stand up to the wear and tear of two children, while still providing enough space for their belongings.

When looking for a new pushchair twin, it's a good idea to try out several models. This will give you a feel of how easy it is to steer and stop the pushchair, as well as how it folds up and put up when not in use. You should also check out the weight of the pushchair to ensure it's not too heavy to be lifted into your car and to put away when not in use.

There are many accessories for twin pushchairs. These include foot muffs as well as rain covers. These additional accessories are available from a variety of top brands for their twin pushchairs. Take the time to look through the options and determine which one is the best for your family. Some twin pushchairs include these accessories as standard. Make sure to verify before purchasing.

It's important to select a twin pushchair that will be used in narrow doorways and other spaces. If you're unsure you're not sure, ask an employee at the retailer you've chosen to measure the width of a few door frames to give you an idea of how much space you'll require for the twin pushchair.
