Buying a Twin Pushchair

Direct4Baby provides a range of innovative twin and double pushchairs.

Our favourites include the egg2 dual-use pushchairs. It opens a new window that can be modified for toddlers and newborns with a combination carrycot and seat unit.

Side-by-Side

A thule double Stroller side-by-side buggy has children placed side by side and usually has two fixed seats. They are typically smaller and lighter than a single stroller making it easier to maneuver through doors.

Some have seats that are adjustable and permit a child to lay flat, while others can accommodate carrycots. This kind of twin is an excellent option right from the beginning and is also a great choice through toddlerhood, sit and stand double stroller beyond.

Some models can even be converted into an all-in-one buggy with a huge shopping basket alongside it, like the Cybex Aton M5. This is a unique option that is not just practical but also enjoyable for children. It is crucial to make sure that any additional accessories are compatible with your model prior to purchasing.

Tandem

The tandem pushchair is placed behind the twin pushchair, and provides two spaces for children. This arrangement is ideal for babies of the same age, because you can put your newborn in a carrycot while your toddler sits in a car seat or in a car seat or baby carrier (though not all models support both). A lot of the top twin strollers have an adjustable front seat and an rear seat that is upright.

The Cybex Venus is a great model of this kind of twin pushchair. The rear seat is full recline and is suitable for children from birth, whereas the front seat can face either way, which means that your child's younger one can look at their sibling or you can face them out to the world for more interaction. Add a newborn baby cocoon to each seat to create a comfortable lie-flat space for your children. The rear seat is equipped with a hood, raincover and an entire recline.

You could also choose an option like the Joolz Geo 3 with a rear seat that can be folded up to reveal a huge shopping basket when it is not in use. This allows you to easily maneuver a double travel stroller pushchair into narrow doorways. It's a great choice for urban adventures. The curved frame and four-wheel suspension make it ideal for handling uneven surfaces too.

Some tandem pushchairs like the UPPAbaby Vista 2, start as single buggies, after where a second seat can be added either in front, behind or underneath. This is a cost-effective option that lasts longer and offer you a lot of flexibility in the event that you're expecting another child in the future.
