What to Look For in a Twin Pushchair

If you have two children or babies that are similar age, a twin pushchair could be a great choice. They have two places for your infants to travel and typically come with comfortable carrycots or seats for infants as well as car seat compatibility for older toddlers.

Be on the lookout for models that have easy-to use push handles and a GIANT basket. Add-ons like cup holders and snack tray for both kids and parents are also handy.

Tandem

The classic tandem twin pushchair lets both children to face each other. This is the preferred style for some parents who feel it less likely to trigger sibling squabbles over which side to sit in. It is also ideal when visiting places such as the zoo, where both children can easily see each other. Tandems are often more spacious than single buggy however they tend to be larger and may feel longer when they are pushed.

Some twin buggies start life as single pushchairs but can be expanded to accommodate two seats or carrycots by adding an adapter. This is a great option for families with more than one child. You won't have to purchase a new buggy when your older child is outgrowing it. However, it might not be the best choice for twin babies in the early months since they'll have to be the same age and weight.

Another type of twin buggy is the jogger which can be used in single or double Pram stroller mode and can accommodate two car seats. It comes with an air-filled tyre and a swivel-forward wheel, so it can also be used on off-road trails. It is heavier than other alternatives, but it has added durability.

The Phil & Ted Sport double Jogger can be used with either seat in the main compartment or with a nifty double kit that is attached to the existing single seat. It has a single swivel wheel on the front and all-wheel suspension that makes it more stable than other joggers we have tested. It is also compatible with many car seats.

This slim, single to double stroller is perfect for urban excursions. Its easy maneuverability and large basket make it ideal for urban adventures. It has an UPF 50+ sun canopy that expands to provide real shade and an open window in the front seat, so both children can take in the view. The model doesn't have a built in recline however it can be combined with a Roma Gemini Carrycot (PS100 per carrycot) to make a space that is flat for newborns or infants. It also fits the seat of a toddler to make it a three-seater option for older children.

Convertible

A convertible twin pushchair is an adaptable option that allows you to alter the configuration as your kids get older. The frame starts as an individual pushchair, but it has adaptors to accommodate a second seat or carrycot, or even a car seat. These models are larger than standard buggy models however, they are able to fit through doors and are more suited to navigate on the kerbs. These models let you use two carrycots or a car seat for toddlers side by side, which is great for siblings.

The iCandy Peach 7 double buggy is a wonderful example of this type. It can be configured with 25 different ways using seats, car seats and carrycots. Our test team loved the way it is slim and light is for a two-seater while also offering a spacious comfortable, sturdy ride for children. The simple and easy one-handed reclining lever at the rear of the seat unit makes it easy for your child to lie on their backs.

The Uppababy Vista V2 is another example of a convertible twin stroller with seats that can be removed and can be configured to face either forward or backward, making it suitable for twins of all ages. It also accommodates another child in the RumbleSeat or PiggyBack riding board, which attaches to the middle of the frame.

Multiple configurations

The seating arrangement of your twin pushchair can have a significant impact on its functionality. You should consider various options that permit you to change the direction in which your child's seat faces depending on their mood, the situation, or even as they develop. The Bugaboo Donkey 5 Twin is an example of a product which is extremely versatile. It has reversible seat and bassinet configurations which allow siblings to face one another, you, or a new adventure. The frame can be expanded to accommodate a second seat. It can be used in Mono or double strollers mode. A range of accessories are available for both configurations.

The side-by-side configuration is a popular option for parents who are just starting out. One child sits behind the second. This type of twin buggy is a bit narrower than a standard pushchair and is able to be moved through doorways and on public transport. The Cybex Gazelle S Pushchair for instance, comes in over 20 different configurations, so you can choose the best compact double stroller configuration for your family. it can even accommodate two car seats or carrycots in tandem mode.

The Valco Jump Seat attachment allows you to turn this side-byside double buggy, which is made for twins, to an running jogger. Both kids are facing towards the forward direction. This lets you keep on top of your running partner and keep the kids content while they play.

In general twin pushchairs tend to be a little heavier than single pushchairs because they come with additional features like bigger baskets and padded seats, so consider your lifestyle before deciding on this type of stroller. You may also find they are a bit heavier than a single stroller and you'll need to buy additional accessories such as sunshades or rain covers in order to protect your twins.

It's equally important to test the quality of a lightest double stroller pushchair as it is to ensure that it fits into your budget and lifestyle. Look for brands that prioritise sustainability and offer detailed information on their manufacturing processes to ensure you're getting the most value for money. Joining parenting groups online or attending local events can provide valuable insight on the best travel double stroller twin pushchair.

Stores

There will be a lot of stuff for twins so look for a spacious undercarriage basket and plenty of pockets or compartments to store your essentials. Make sure the storage areas are accessible with the seats positioned in different positions, too. The UPPAbaby Vista 2 can carry twins or a toddler and baby and also include a 'PiggyBack' table for older kids (PS120). The Roma Gemini is able to accommodate two infants using the cocoons included (PS59 each). With the new design, it is possible to attach the cocoons either facing either direction, or reverse. It features a handy standing fold that makes it easy to put away between uses.
