Don t Buy Into These "Trends" About Twin Pushchair

Buying a Twin Pushchair From Birth

The sleek and stylish pushchair expands to a twin in just one click. In twin mode the frame is shorter, but it still has room for a basket beside each seat/carrycot. It can also hold two car seats/car carrycots depending on the age of your children.

The Venus comes with a newborn Cocoon that creates a lie-flat and world-facing environment for infants. UPPAbaby have even rejigged the design to allow you attach two cocoons together.

Easy to maneuver

One of the most commonly used baby products is a car seat, a twin pushchair will be the baby's home for a long time, so it's essential that it's simple to maneuver. The Roma Gemini was a favorite of our home testers because it is lightweight twin stroller, compact and has excellent steering. It also comes with loads of extras that other brands don't sell separately, like an upholstered seat liner that is fleecey.

The Silver Cross Wave is another ideal choice for twins or siblings of varying ages, as it's designed to take 2 seats and car seats (it is also able to be used with 2 carrycots in mono mode). The clever frame expands in size when you need the double infant strollers seat, but it has a single footprint when you're in mono mode which makes it easier to navigate narrow passageways.

Our testers were impressed by the style of this pushchair and its many extras. It was user-friendly. It folds with a single click and compatible with most car seat models. It's a bit long when in double mode, but you can purchase a "sidepack" for PS45 to reduce it to a smaller size.

Convenient storage

If you have more than one child A twin pushchair from birth with a practical and easily accessible storage area will help you keep everything organised. 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. It's also a good idea to add an eating tray and a cup holder, so that you do not have to reach behind your child to grab a snack or drink when they are hungry.

Tandem twin pushchairs with a single seat in the front are ideal for siblings with different ages, but they aren't always easy to maneuver through narrow spaces. The CYBEX Gazelle S and Silver Cross Wave are the top tandem options for twins, while the Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double is more affordable and can be used with two infant car seats or bassinets in double mode.

The UPPAbaby Vista 2 is an amazing twin stroller starting at birth and works with two infant car seats or carrycots in double mode (you could also include the UPPAbaby piggyBack board to make it suitable for three kids). In single-seat mode, it has plenty of storage space too, as well as a large under-seat storage basket that's big enough to hold a large shopping bag. It comes with a massive canopy that provides incredible protection from the sun or rain and it's also a breeze to monitor your children with the clever peekaboo hoods.

Baby is a comfortable fit for both

The most effective twin pushchairs are designed to keep both children content and comfortable on their strolls. Look for adjustable calf bars, padded seats and recline features. These features will allow your child to stretch and relax or sit straight up to observe their environment.

You should also look for twin strollers that have one handlebar that allows you to control the stroller one-handed. This will help you to navigate busy shopping streets and make tight turns. Double buggies may have two handlebars, but this can be harder to control and may require two hands for pushing.

Some twin pushchairs are able to accommodate various combinations of infant car seats and carrycots, so you can modify the stroller as your baby grows. For example the Peach 7 offers two world-facing seats that can be used for babies from birth, a cozy parent-facing carrycot, and an infant seat, making it an ideal choice for siblings of varying age.

The UPPAbaby PiggyBack Board can be attached to the UPPAbaby vista 2 for use with twins, a toddler and a baby or even three children. It is simple to use and folds compactly.

Tandem buggies have more sleek appearance than side-by-side models and are a good option for twins. They usually have one cushioned seat that can recline fully and is suitable for infants and the other one has a more upright position and is suitable for toddlers. Some can be converted back to a single pushchair by removing the front seat. They can be tricky to fit on to public transport, and they may not be as stable as a single pushchair going across kerbs.

Certain models can fold into smaller sizes than others. This is important when your storage space in your home is limited. Egg2 is a beautiful choice that can be used as a single or a nipper Double Buggy. It also has a variety of carrycots and baby car seats so you can alter it as your twins grow larger. It's also available in a range of colours and comes with a lovely contemporary style.
