Buying a Twin Pushchair
Direct4Baby offers a range of nifty twin and double umbrella stroller pushchairs.
Our top picks are the egg2 dual-use pushchairs that open in a new window that allows you to make them suitable for toddlers and babies with the help of seats and carrycots.
Side-by-Side
A side-byside cheap double buggy buggy can have the children positioned on opposite sides and will usually have two fixed seats. They are usually smaller and lighter than a single stroller which makes it easier to move through doors.
Some seats are adjustable, which allow one child to lie flat, while others can accommodate carrycots. This kind of twin is an excellent option from the beginning, and is also a great choice through toddlerhood, and beyond.
Some models, such as the Cybex Aton M5, can be transformed into a single buggy with a basket on the side. This is a fantastic option for children that is both practical and fun. It is crucial to ensure that any additional accessories you buy are compatible with the model you own.
Tandem
The tandem pushchair is arranged behind the twin pushchair and offers two places for children. This arrangement is great for children of the same age because you can put your baby in a carrycot while your toddler sat in a seat unit, or in the car seat and baby carrier (though not all models support both). Many of the top twin pushchairs come with a padded front seat that reclines flat, and an upright seat in the rear.
The Cybex Venus is an excellent example of a twin pushchair. The rear seat has a full recline and is suitable for children from birth, while the front seat can be positioned either way, which means that your child can look at their sibling or you can face them out to the world for greater interaction. You can add a newborn cocoon for both seats to create an enclosed sleeping area for your infants and the rear seat is equipped with a raincover and hood for protection.
You can also pick an option like the Joolz Geo 3 with a rear seat that can be opened to reveal an ample shopping basket when it is not being used. This allows you to easily move a double prams with shock-absorbing Suspension pushchair around narrow doors. It is a great option for urban excursions. The bent frame and four-wheel suspension of this buggy makes it ideal for handling uneven surfaces too.
Some tandem pushchairs like the UPPAbaby Vista 2, start as single buggies, after which a second hand double buggy seat can be added either in front, behind or underneath. This is a low-cost option that will last longer and offer you a lot of flexibility in the event that you're expecting another child in the future.
