Buying a Twin Pushchair

Direct4Baby offers a variety of nifty twin and double stroller with bassinet pushchairs.

Some of our favourites are the egg2 dual-use pushchairsOpens in a new window, which allows you to adapt them for toddlers and babies with the help of carrycots and seat units.

Side-by-Side

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

Some seats are adjustable, which permit a child to lay flat and others can accommodate carrycots. This kind of twin bed is a good choice for babies and toddlers.

Certain models, like the Cybex Aton M5, can be transformed into a single buggy that has a large basket on the side. This is a novel option that is not only practical but also enjoyable for kids. It is essential to make sure that any accessories you purchase are compatible with the model you own.

Tandem

Twin pushchairs, referred to as tandems are arranged one behind the other and offer two spaces for your children. This arrangement is ideal for children of the same age, since you can place your newborn in a carrycot while your toddler is in a car seat or in the car seat and baby carrier (though some models do not allow both). Many of the top twin pushchairs have an upholstered front seat that reclines flat, and an upright seat in the rear.

The Cybex Venus is a great example of this type of twin pushchair. The rear seat is full recline and is suitable for children from birth, whereas the front seat can be set either way - which means that your child's younger one can gaze at their sibling or you can open them to the world for greater interaction. You can also include a newborn cocoon for both seats to create an enclosed lie-flat space for your infants and the rear seat comes with a hood and raincover for protection.

You can also select one of the models like the Joolz Geo 3 which has been built with a rear seat that pops up to reveal a huge shopping basket when not in use. This allows you to easily move a small double buggy pushchair around narrow doorways. It is a great option for urban excursions. The bent frame and four-wheel suspension make it ideal for coping with uneven surfaces as well.

Some tandem pushchairs, like the UPPAbaby Vista 2, start as single double stroller buggies, after where a second seat can be added in front, behind or beneath. This is an option that's affordable, durable, and flexible if you plan to have another child in the near future.

The egg2 is an example twin pushchairs that can be used in various configurations. It has been popular with parents because of its elegant design and premium fabric. It can be used either as a single pushchair with a carrycot, or twins with two seat units. It can be used as a family rig that can accommodate three kids, using an 'eggyback' board that is connected to the chassis.

Convenience

There are many options, from tandem prams which align your babies side by side to twin buggies that are compact and designed to fit in tight spaces.
