Is Pushchair As Important As Everyone Says?

Choosing a Double Pushchair Twin

If you have twins you need a double pushchair in order to get them from A to B. Our range includes twin prams as well as buggies that can be configured in various ways to meet your requirements.

Find a pushchair that folds with one step and is easy to carry into your car. You might also want a lightweight design, especially in high traffic streets.

Side-by-Side

This is the most common double pushchair. It is usually able to accommodate two children side by side. They tend to be wider than single pushchairs. This means they are less agile on footpaths and can be a bit difficult to navigate between kerbs when a car seat is attached. The extra width allows them to move more easily through doors and are more evenly distributed so that it is less burdensome on your back.

They can be used as twin best prams from birth and many models can be used with a carrycot or two car seats. Some models can be converted into a single mode with a basket alongside (like the Cybex Venus).

One of the most excellent examples of this is the Bugaboo Donkey 5 which, in Twin Mode, allows you to place the rear seat and carrycot side-by-side. This creates a completely enclosed space for twins and is perfect for babies. This pram is also equipped with a couple of very cool accessories, such as the newborn cocoons that can be positioned to face either way (for a twin-facing pram) or facing inwards (for a normal single). It is not as lightweight as some other options but it's incredibly well created.

Lightweight

Cybex is known for its unique pushchairs, and the single-to-double isn't an exception. The frame can be expanded to accommodate a second seat. It is possible to use the pushchair as twins from birth by putting in two newborn cocoons that cost PS59 each. These cocoons are enclosed and create lie-flat spaces. The large shopping basket that is behind the seat allows it to be used in mono mode with just one child. It also has a rear and front suspensions that can handle bumps and uneven surfaces more easily. Our reviewers picked this car as their top pick.

Available in a variety of fashionable colors.

Tandem

If you plan to have twins, you'll require a tandem triple pushchair. This allows each child to sit and see each one another. They are ideal for trips to the zoo since the kids can observe the animals together. They're also perfect for parents who must keep an eye on their toddler and the other on their baby, as they can see both simultaneously.

Some tandem pushchairs provide ultra flexibility since they can be converted back to single mode. This is particularly useful when you are planning to have more children than two (or when your oldest child isn't a need for a buggy any longer). This will prevent you from having to store an empty buggy which can be costly.

For example for instance, the Cybex Venus can be used in double or mono mode, and features a clever frame that can be expanded to allow for an additional seat. This isn't the lightest of pushchairs, but it does come with a large shopping basket which is located behind the front seat in double mode (and at the back of the seat when it's mono mode). The seats can be placed in a way that they face each other or higher up to be able to see what each is doing.

Double tandem pushchairs, like the Joolz Geo 3, are equipped to place one on top of the other or side-by-side. The sleek, compact frame makes it easier to navigate through doorways and supermarket aisles. Some models can be used on rough terrain, or for a jogging path due to their large rear wheels and four-wheel suspension.

Another benefit of a tandem pushchair is that it will often include two carrycots, or a car seat and a buggy seat. This allows you to create a travel system right from the outset and save money on separate purchases. It's worth remembering, however, that tandems are heavier and longer than single pushchairs prams Pushchairs and are less stable when bumping up kerbs or going over uneven surfaces. They also need dismantling to fit into cars.
