Buying a Twin Pushchair
Direct4Baby provides a range of innovative twin and double pushchairs.
Some of our favourites are the egg2 dual-use pushchairs. They open in new window which allow you to make them suitable for toddlers and babies by combining carrycots and seat units.
Side-by-Side
The children are positioned side-by-side in a double stroller that is side-by-side. It can be fitted with two seats fixed. They tend to be narrower than single pushchairs, making them it is easier to maneuver through doorways and are more evenly weighted, which makes them easy to manoeuvre between kerbs.
Some seats can be adjusted so that one child can lay flat and others are designed to fit carrycots. This type of twin bed is an excellent choice for babies and toddlers.
Some models, such as the Cybex Aton M5, can be converted into a single buggy with a basket on the side. This is an innovative option that is not just practical, but also fun for kids. However, it is important to make sure that any additional accessories are compatible with the model before you buy.
Tandem
The tandem pushchair is placed behind the twin pushchair, and provides two places for children. This arrangement is great for babies who are the same age since you can place your baby in a carrycot while your toddler sat in a seat unit, or in a car seat and baby carrier (though not all models allow both). A lot of the top twin strollers have the front seat that reclines and the rear seat which is upright.
The Cybex Venus is a great example of this kind of twin pushchair. The rear seat is full recline and is suitable for children from birth, whereas the front seat can be positioned either way, which means that your child can gaze at their sibling or you can face them out to the world to have more interaction. Add a newborn baby cocoon to each seat to create a comfortable lie-flat place for your children. The rear seat is equipped with an hood, raincover and the recline is complete.
Alternatively, you could choose an option like the Joolz Geo 3 which has been constructed with a rear-facing seat that opens up to reveal a huge shopping basket when not in use. This lets you easily maneuver a double pushchair into narrow doors. It's an excellent option for urban adventures. The curvature of the frame and the four-wheel suspension makes it ideal for coping with uneven surfaces too.
Some tandem pushchairs, like the UPPAbaby Vista 2, start as single buggies, after which a second seat can be added in front, behind or beneath. This is a choice that is cost-effective, durable and adaptable if you're planning to have another child in the near-term.
