Choosing a Double Pushchair Twin

If you have twins you'll need a double pushchair to take them from A to B. Our range includes twin good prams and buggies that can be set up in various ways to meet your needs.

Choose a my babiie stroller which can be folded in one step and easily lifted into your boot. You may also prefer an ultra-light design that is easy to maneuver and navigate especially when you have busy high streets to traverse.

Side-by-Side

These are the most common type of double pushchair and generally can seat two children in a row. They tend to be a bit wider than single pushchairs, meaning they are less agile on the footpaths and may be a little tricky to navigate up and down kerbs when a car seat is attached. The extra size allows them to move more easily through doorways and are more evenly distributed, so it is less burdensome on your back.

They can be used as a twin pram from birth and many models can be used with a carrycot and 2 car seats. Some models can be converted into one-mode with a basket to the side (like the Cybex Venus).

One of the best examples of this is the Bugaboo Donkey 5 which, in Twin Mode, allows you to fit the rear seat and carrycot side-by-side. This lets you create a fully enclosed twin space and is ideal for infants. This pram comes with some really cool accessories, including the newborn cocoons that can be attached either facing towards the front or in any direction (for twin-facing prams). It's not as lightweight as other options, but it's very well thought out.

Lightweight

Cybex is renowned for its nifty pushchairs and the single-to-double isn't an exception. Its clever frame expands widthways to take a second seat, and you can use it as a twin right from birth, thanks to the addition of two newborn cocoons (PS59 each) that create enclosed lie-flat spaces for babies. The large basket of shopping behind the seat allows it to be used in mono mode for a single child. And it comes with rear and front suspension to tackle bumps and uneven surfaces a little more easily. A top pick among our reviewers.

Available in a range of fashionable colors.

Tandem

If you're planning to have twins, you should consider a tandem pushchair that allows children to sit together, so they can look at each one another. They are ideal for activities such as visiting the zoo because the kids will be able to look at all the animals together. They're also ideal for parents who need to keep one eye on their toddler and the other on their baby, as they can see both at the same time.

Some tandem pushchairs provide ultra versatility as they can change back to single mode. This is especially handy when you're planning to have more than two children (or only your oldest doesn't need a buggy anymore). This means that you won't have an empty pushchair to store away and can be expensive.

The Cybex Venus, for example is a model that can be used in double or mono mode. The frame can be expanded to accommodate a second seat. This isn't the heaviest of pushchairs, but it does come with a large shopping basket which is located behind the front seat when in double mode (and at the back of the seat when it's mono mode). The seats can either be set up so that they face one other or higher up to observe what the other is doing.

Other double tandem pushchairs pushchairs, such as the Joolz Geo 3 can seat one on top of the other, or side-by-side. The sleek, compact frame makes it easy to maneuver through doors and aisles in supermarkets. Some models can be used on rough terrain, or for an exercise walk due to their large rear wheels and four-wheel suspension.

Another advantage of a tandem pushchair is that it will often include two carrycots, or a car seat, and buggy seat. This means you can create a travel system from the outset and save money on additional purchases. It is important to remember that tandems can be heavier and longer than single pushchairs, and are less stable when bumping up kerbs or going over uneven surfaces. They also need dismantling to fit into cars.
