Five Pushchair Projects For Any Budget

Choosing a Double pushchair twin (relevant internet site)

When you have twins, you'll need a double pushchair to get them from A to B. Our selection includes a variety of twin prams and double buggies with various configurations to suit your family needs.

Find a pushchair that folds in a single step and is easy to lift into your boot. You may also want a lightweight design that's easy to maneuver and navigate especially when you have busy streets to navigate.

Side-by-Side

These are the most common type of double pushchair, and generally can seat two children in a row. They tend to be a bit wider than single pushchairs, which means they may be less nimble on the footpaths and may be a little tricky to navigate between the kerbs with a car attached. However, the extra width means that they're generally more comfortable to maneuver through doorways and are distributed more evenly making them less burdensome on your back.

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

The Bugaboo Donkey 5 is a excellent example of this. In Twin Mode, you can place the rear seat alongside a carrycot. This creates an enclosed twin room and is ideal for infants. This pram comes with some amazing accessories, including the newborn cocoons, which can be put on either facing forwards or in any direction (for twin-facing prams). It's not as light as some other options, but it's really cleverly thought out.

Lightweight

Cybex is a brand known for its innovation and this pushchair that converts from a single to a double is no different. The frame can be extended to accommodate another seat. You can use the pushchair as a twin from birth by adding two newborn cocoons, each costing PS59. 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 for one child. It has both front and rear suspension which means it can take on bumps and uneven surfaces more easily. It is a top pick from our reviewers.

Available in a variety fashionable colors.

Tandem

If you are planning to have twins, you'll need a tandem pushchair. This will allow the children to sit together and interact with each one another. They are ideal for activities like going to the zoo as the children will be able to look at all the animals together. They are also great for parents who must keep an eye on their toddler and the other eye on their infant because they can see both at the same time.

Some tandem pushchairs are very adaptable, since they can be converted to single mode. This is especially useful when you are planning to have more children than two (or in the event that your child who is the oldest doesn't require an extra buggy). This will help you avoid having to store an empty buggy which can be costly.

For example the Cybex Venus can be used in mono or double mode and has a clever frame that opens wide to accommodate an extra seat. It's not the lightest pushchair however it does come with an ample basket that can be set behind the front seat when in double mode or at the back if in mono mode. The seats can either be placed so that they face each other or higher up to observe what each is doing.

Other double tandem pushchairs like the Joolz Geo 3 can seat one on top of the other or side-byside. The sleek, compact frame makes it easier to navigate through doorways and aisles in supermarkets. Some models can be used on rough terrain, or for an exercise walk due to their wide rear wheels and four-wheel suspension.

Another advantage of a tandem pushchair is that it can take two carrycots, or a car seat and buggy seat. You can save money by creating a travel system at the beginning and avoiding separate purchases. It is important to remember, however, that tandems can be heavier and longer than single pushchairs and can feel less stable as you go over uneven surfaces. These pushchairs must also be dismantled to fit in cars.
