What Is Pushchair And How To Use It
Choosing a Double Pushchair Twin
You need a double pram my babiie stroller in order to transport your twins from A to B. Our range comprises of twin prams as well as double buggies with various configurations to suit your family needs.
Choose a stroller that folds with one step and is easy to carry into your boot. You might also want a lightweight design that's easy to maneuver and navigate especially when you have busy streets to navigate.
Side-by-Side
They are the most commonly used 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 sidewalk and can be a little tricky to navigate up and down the kerbs with a car attached. The extra size allows them to move more easily through doors and also more evenly distributed, so it is easier on your back.
They can be used as a twin pram sets from birth and many models can be used with a carrycot and 2 car seats. Some can even convert into one mode by adding an additional basket (like the Cybex Venus).
The Bugaboo Donkey 5 is a great illustration of this. In Twin Mode, you can place the rear seat alongside the carrycot. This creates a fully enclosed space for twins, and is perfect for infants. This pram store near me also comes with a number of very cool accessories, such as the newborn cocoons, which can be put on the front or back (for a twin-facing pram) or facing forwards (for a standard single). It's not as light as some other options but it's incredibly well designed.
Lightweight
Cybex is renowned for its nifty pushchairs and the single-to-double isn't an exception. Its clever frame expands widthways to accommodate an additional seat, and you can use it as a twin from birth by incorporating the addition of two infant cocoons (PS59 each) which provide enclosed, lie-flat areas for babies. The large shopping basket behind the seat allows it to be used in mono mode with just one child. It comes with both front and rear suspensions which means it can take on bumps and uneven surfaces better. Our reviewers chose this car as their top choice.
Available in a variety fashionable colors.
Tandem
If you are planning to have twins you will require a pushchair that is tandem. This will allow both children to sit together and interact with each other. They are great for trips to the zoo, as children can watch the animals together. They are also great for parents who need to keep one eye on their toddler and the other on their child because they can see both simultaneously.
Some tandem pushchairs offer ultra versatility as they can change back to single mode. This is particularly useful if you plan to have more than two children (or if your eldest child does not require the buggy anymore). This will help you avoid having to store an empty buggy which can be expensive.
The Cybex Venus, for example can be used in mono or double mode. Its frame expands to accommodate a second seat. It's not the lightest of pushchairs however it does come with a large basket that can be placed behind the front seat when in double mode, or in the back when it's in mono mode. The seats can be placed so that they face each other, or one could be placed higher so that it can see over the other and see what they're up to.
Other double tandem pushchairs such as the Joolz Geo 3 can seat one on top of the other, or side-by-side. The sleek, compact frame makes it easier to maneuver through doorways and aisles in supermarkets. Some models can be used on uneven terrain, or for an exercise walk due to their large rear wheels and four-wheel suspension.
Another advantage of a tandem pushchair is that it can often take two carrycots, or a car seat, and buggy seat. You can save money by creating an overall travel system from the beginning and not making separate purchases. It's worth remembering that tandems can be heavier and longer than single pushchairs and can feel less stable as you go over uneven surfaces. These pushchairs also need to be dismantled to fit in cars.
