A twin pushchair is one of the most popular baby products, after the car seat. It will be the baby's place of residence for a long period of time, so it is essential to ensure that it is easy to maneuver. Our home-based testers loved the Roma Gemini for this - it's lightweight, folds up compactly and has a great steering. It comes with a lot of extras, which other brands will charge separately.

The Silver Cross Wave is another ideal choice for siblings or twins of varying ages, as it's designed to accommodate two seats and car seats (it can even be used with 2 carrycots in mono mode). Its clever frame expands widthways when you're using the double seat, yet keeps a single footprint when in mono mode, making it more maneuverable through narrow passageways rather than side-byside buggies.

Our testers were impressed by the style of this pushchair as well as its numerous features. It was simple to use. It folds with just a click and is compatible with all car seat models. It's a little long when it's in double pushchair sale mode, but you can purchase a "sidepack" for PS45 to make it more compact.

A handy cup holder and snack tray are also an excellent choice, as it helps you avoid reaching behind your children for a drink and snack when they begin to feel thirsty or hungry.

Tandem twin pushchairs, which have one seat in front of the other, are ideal for children of different age groups, but can be a bit more difficult to maneuver in small spaces than side-by-side models. The CYBEX Gazelle S and Silver Cross Wave provide the most suitable tandem options for twins, while the Evenflo Pivot Xpand double tandem pushchair is more budget-friendly and can take two infant car seats or bassinets in double mode.

The UPPAbaby Vista 2 stroller is a twin stroller that can be used from birth. It works with two infant car seats or carrycots and also in double mode. You can add the UPPAbaby piggyback board to allow it to be used by three children. In single double stroller-seat configuration, it offers plenty of storage space as a spacious under-seat basket that's large enough to fit a large shopping bag. It comes with a massive canopy that provides exceptional protection from the sun or rain and it's also a breeze to monitor your children by using the clever peekaboo-hoods.

Some twin strollers pushchairs can accommodate various combinations of infant car seats so you can adapt the pushchairs as your children grow.

Other options include the UPPAbaby Vista 2 that can be used with twins or a toddler and a baby or even three children by affixing the UPPAbaby PiggyBack board. It has a super-slim frame that allows it to be used in double mode and is folded down for easy transport.

Tandem buggies are another good option for twins and offer a more streamlined appearance than side-by-side models. One seat is cushioned and reclines to a full angle for newborns while the other is more upright and appropriate for toddlers. Some can be converted back into a single pushchair by taking the front seat. They aren't easy to attach to public transport, and they may not be as sturdy as a single pushchair moving up and down kerbs.

Certain models can fold up smaller than others, which could be a good thing if you're low in storage space at home. The egg2 is an elegant choice that can be used as one or two people.
