A Complete Guide To Pushchair
Choosing a Double pushchair twin (nashi-stanki.ru)
When you have twins, you need a double pushchair to get them from A to B. Our selection includes a variety of twin prams for newborns as well as double buggies with various configurations to suit your family needs.
Look for a pushchair that folds in one step and is easy to lift into your boot. You may also prefer a lightweight design, especially when you're on busy high streets.
Side-by-Side
This is the most common double pushchair. It usually seats two children side by side. They tend to be a bit wider than single pushchairs, meaning they may be less nimble on footpaths and can be a bit difficult to navigate through kerbs when a car seat is attached. However, the extra width does mean that they're often a lot easier to navigate through doorways and are more evenly distributed making them less burdensome on your back.
They can be used as a twin childs pram from birth and many models can accommodate a carrycot and 2 car seats. Some can even convert into a single mode with an additional basket (like the Cybex Venus).
The Bugaboo Donkey 5 is a perfect example of this. In Twin Mode, you can place the rear seat alongside a carrycot. This allows you to create an enclosed twin room and is ideal for infants. The pram also comes with a couple of very cool accessories, including the newborn cocoons, which can be put on face either direction (for twin-facing prams) or facing inwards (for a normal single). It's not as light like other options, but it's really cleverly created.
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 expanded to accommodate another seat. It is possible to use the pushchair as a twin from birth by adding two cocoons for newborns, each costing PS59. These cocoons create lie-flat areas that are enclosed. The large shopping basket behind the seat lets it be used in mono mode with just one child. It has both front and rear suspensions, so it can handle bumps and uneven surfaces with ease. Our reviewers picked this car as their top pick.
Available in a variety of stylish colors.
Tandem
If you're planning to have twins, you want a tandem pushchair that permits the children to sit together and look at each other. They are great for trips to the zoo, as children can watch the animals together. They're also ideal for parents who must keep an eye on their toddler stroller and the other on their baby because they can see both of them simultaneously.
Some tandem pushchairs provide ultra versatility as they can change back 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 the buggy anymore). It means you won't have an empty pushchair that you need to store away, which can be costly.
For example, the Cybex Venus can be used in double or mono mode and has a clever frame that can be expanded to allow for an additional seat. It's not the lightest of pushchairs, but it has a large basket that can be set behind the front seat in double mode or at the back if in mono mode. The seats can either be set up in a way that they face each opposite or higher up to be able to see what the other is doing.
Other double tandem pushchairs, such as the Joolz Geo 3 in 1 pram, are capable of seating one over the other or side by side. The slim, sleek frame makes it easy to maneuver through doorways and supermarket aisles. Some models can also be used on rough terrain or as a jogging path due to their wide 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. You can save money by establishing an overall travel strollers system from the beginning and not making separate purchases. Remember that tandems are heavier and longer, and they may appear less stable when you bump into kerbs and going over uneven surfaces. They also tend to need dismantling to fit into cars.
