Buying a Twin Pushchair From Birth

The sleek and stylish pushchair can be expanded to twin in a single click. When it's twin, the frame is smaller but offers enough space to store a shopping basket beside each seat/carrycot. It can accommodate two carrycots or car seats to suit siblings of varying age.

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

Easy to manoeuvre

One of the most frequently used baby products after a car seat twin pushchairs will be the baby's mainstay for quite a while, so it's essential that it's simple to maneuver. Our home-based testers loved the Roma Gemini for this - it's lightweight, folds up compactly and has a great steering. It also comes with loads of accessories that rival brands offer separately, such as a fleecey padded seat liner.

The Silver Cross Wave is another ideal choice for twins or siblings of different 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). Its clever frame expands in size when you require the double seat, but it has a single footprint when in mono mode which makes it easier to navigate narrow passageways.

Our test subjects loved the design of this pushchair and its numerous extras. But it was also easy to use. It folds in a single click and is compatible with the majority of car seat models. It's a little long when it's in double mode, but you can buy a'sidepack' for PS45 to make it smaller.

Convenient storage

A twin pushchair with a storage area that is easy to access and practical will help you stay organised when you have more than one child. Choose a model that has an ample basket underneath the seat to store all the extra accessories such as baby changing mats and nappy bag. A convenient cup holder and snack tray are an excellent option, since it helps you avoid reaching behind your children to grab a drink and snack when they begin to feel thirsty or hungry.

Tandem twin pushchairs with a single seat in the front are ideal for siblings of different ages, but they are more difficult to maneuver through narrow spaces. The CYBEX Gazelle S and Silver Cross Wave offer the best tandem options for twins, while the Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double is more affordable and can accommodate two infant car seat carriers or bassinets in double mode.

The UPPAbaby Vista 2 stroller is a twin stroller that is able to be used from birth. It can be used with two infant car seats or carrycots and also in double mode. It can be paired with the UPPAbaby PiggyBack Board to make it work for three children. It has a lot of storage space even in single-seat mode. It also has a huge under-seat basket big enough to hold a huge shopping cart. It features a large canopy that provides excellent protection from rain or sun. The clever peekaboo hoods allow you to keep an eye on your baby.

Comfortable for both babies

The best twin pushchairs are designed to keep both children content and comfortable while strolling. Look out for padded seats recline features, recline features, and adjustable bar for the calf. These features will allow your child to relax and stretch out or be seated straight up to watch their surroundings.

It's also worth looking for twin prams with one handlebar, making it easier to steer one-handed. This will help you to navigate busy shopping streets and navigate tight turns. Some double buggies come with two handlebars, however these can be difficult to control and could require that you use both hands to push.

Some twin pushchairs are able to accommodate various combinations of infant car seats and carrycots, so you can alter the stroller as your baby grows. The Peach 7 is a great option for siblings with different age ranges, as it comes with two seats that are suitable from birth and a carrycot with the parent facing.

The UPPAbaby PiggyBack Board can be connected to the UPPAbaby vista 2 to use with twins, a toddler and a baby or even three children. It has a super-slim frame that makes it easy to use in double mode, and it can be folded compactly for transport.

Tandem buggies are a great option for twins and offer an elegant appearance compared to side-by-side models. They typically have a cushioned seat that reclines completely and is suitable for infants while the other is a more upright position and is suitable for toddlers. Some of them can be converted into a single pushchair by taking the front seat. Some are difficult to fit onto public transportation, and they might not be as stable moving on kerbs, as a single to double stroller-pushchair.

Certain models can fold smaller than others, which could be a good thing if you're low on storage space at home. Egg2 is a beautiful choice that can be used for one or two people. It also has a variety of carrycots and baby car seats so you can alter it as your twins grow bigger. It is available in many colours and has an attractive contemporary style.

Regular cleaning and maintenance will keep your stroller in good condition for many years to come. This will avoid issues such as staining, odours, and mould growth. It can also prolong the life of your child's pushchair.
