What to Look For in a Twin Pushchair

If you have two kids or babies that are similar age, a twin pushchair can be a great option. They offer two places for your children and usually come with comfortable carrycots for infants as well as compatibility with car seats for older toddlers.

Find models with push handles that are easy to use and a GIANT storage basket. Add-ons like cup holders and snack tray for parents and kids are also useful.

Tandem

The classic tandem twin pushchair is side-by-side and allows both children to face one the other. This is the preferred method of some parents who find it less likely to trigger sibling fights over who is sitting where. It also works well when visiting places such as the zoo, where both children can see each other easily. Tandem buggies can be larger than single buggies. However, they also tend to be wider and longer when being pushed.

Some twin buggies start life as single pushchairs double, but can be extended to hold two seats or carrycots by putting in an adapter. This is an affordable option for families expecting more than one child and it means that you don't have to purchase another buggy if your older child is outgrowing it. However, it may not be a good option for twin babies in the beginning, because they'll need to be similar in age and weight.

The jogger is a different kind of twin buggy that can be used as a double travel stroller or single buggy, and can hold two car seats. It has a swivel front wheel and tyres that are air-filled, so it is able to handle off-road trails, too. It is heavier than other options, but it has added durability.

The Phil & Ted Sport double stroller with infant car seat Jogger can be used with either the main compartment or with a handy double buggy for twins kit that is attached to the existing single seat. It comes with one swivel wheel at the front and an all-wheel suspension, which makes it more stable than other joggers we've tested. It's also compatible with a wide range of car seats.

Convertible

They also let you use a toddler seat and infant car seat, or two carrycots that are side-by-side which is great for siblings of varying ages.

Multiple configurations

The seating configuration can have a major impact on the performance of your twin pushchair.

A common choice of configuration for new parents is the side-by-side arrangement which means that one child is seated behind the other. This type of twin buggy offers the advantage of giving both children the same view. It is generally more compact than one pushchair, making it easier to maneuver through doorways and on public transport. The Cybex gazelle S pushchair, for example, offers over 20 configurations which means you can pick the most suitable configuration for your child. It can also take two car seats or carrycots in tandem mode.

It is also possible that they're more difficult to manoeuvre than a single pushchair and you may have to purchase additional accessories, such as rain covers or sunshades to protect your twins from the elements.
