How To Outsmart Your Boss On Twin Pushchair

What to Look For in a Twin Pushchair

A twin pushchair is an ideal option for families with two kids or children with similar ages. They provide two places for your infants to travel and typically come with comfortable carrycots or seats for infants and car seat compatibility for older toddlers.

Look out for models with easy to use push handles, as well as a GIANT basket. Accessories like cup holders and snack tray for kids and parents are also useful.

Tandem

The classic tandem twin pushchair lets both children face each other. Some parents prefer this style because it is less likely to cause siblings to fight over who sits in which seat. It is also ideal for trips to places like the zoo where both kids are able to see each other clearly. Tandems can be more spacious than single buggies. However, they also are more spacious and longer when they are they are pushed.

Some twin buggies start life as single pushchairs but can be expanded to accommodate two seats or carrycots with the addition of an adapter. This is a great option for families with more than one child. You won't have to purchase a new buggy when your older child has outgrown it. However, it might not be the best travel double stroller option for twins in the early months since they'll have to be similar in age and weight.

Another kind of twin buggy is the jogger that can be utilized in double or single mode and can accommodate two car seats. It has an air-filled tyre and a swivel-forward steering wheel which means it can be used on trails that are off-road. It is heavier than other models however it offers durability.

The Phil & Ted Sport Double Stroller With Large Canopy Jogger can be used either with the seat in the main compartment or with a clever double kit that can be attached directly to the single seat. It has one swivel on the front and an all-wheel suspension which makes it more stable than other joggers we've tested. It's also compatible with many car seats.

This narrow stroller that converts from a single to a double is perfect for urban excursions. Its simple maneuverability and large basket make it ideal for urban adventures. It has an UPF 50+ sun canopy that extends to provide real shade. It also has an open window in the front seat so both children can take in the view. The model doesn't come with a built-in recline but can be paired with a Roma Gemini carrycot (PS100 each) to create a lay-flat space for infants and newborns. It can also be fitted with a toddler seat, making it three-seater.

Convertible

A convertible twin pushchair is a versatile option that lets you change the configuration as your children get older. The frame is initially a single pushchair with adaptors that can be attached to accommodate a second seat or carrycot, or even a car seat. These models are typically bigger than regular buggy, but they can fit through doorways and are easier to maneuver between kerbs. They also let you use a toddler car seat and infant car seat or two carrycots side-byside, which works well for siblings of varying ages.

The iCandy Peach 7 double buggy is a wonderful example of this kind of. It can be configured in a variety of ways, including seats, car seats and carrycots. The Peach 7 from the iCandy brand is a fantastic model of a double buggy that can be set up in a variety of ways with car seats, seat and carrycots. The clever and intuitive one-handed reclining mechanism on the back of the unit makes it easy for your child to lie flat.

The Uppababy Vista V2 is another example of a convertible twin stroller double that has removable seats and can be set up to face either forward or backward making it suitable for twins of all age groups. The RumbleSeat and PiggyBack riding boards that attach to the middle frame can accommodate the third child.

Multiple configurations

The seating configuration can have significant impact on the functioning of your twin pushchair. Look out for multiple options to alter the direction your children's seats according to their mood or situation, as well as continuing to use them as they develop. The Bugaboo Donkey 5 Twin, for instance, is incredibly versatile, with reversible seat and bassinet configurations that allow siblings to be facing each other, you, or the exciting road ahead. The clever frame expands widthways to accommodate the extra seat and can be used in Mono or Double mode with a range of accessories that are available to suit both configurations.

A popular choice of configuration for new parents is the side-by-side arrangement, where one child sits behind the other. This type of twin buggy gives both children the same view and is generally more compact than a single pushchair, which makes it easier to maneuver through public spaces and through doors. The Cybex Gazelle S Pushchair, for instance, has over 20 different configurations so you can pick the ideal configuration for your family, and it can even accommodate two car seats or carrycots in tandem mode.

For those who wish to take their twins jogging or go on more adventurous adventures with the Valco Jump Seat attachment turns this side-by-side double buggy an jogger that has both kids facing forwards. This lets you keep up with your running partner and keep your kids entertained as they explore.

Consider your lifestyle when choosing a twin pushchair. They are generally heavier because they come with additional features like larger baskets and more padding for the seats. It is also possible that they're a little harder to maneuver than a single pushchair and you might need to purchase additional accessories, such as rain covers or sunshades to shield your twins from the elements.

It is equally important to assess the quality of a double buggy from birth pushchair, as it is to make sure it fits into your budget and lifestyle. To get the most compact double stroller value you can choose a brand that place a high priority on sustainability and provide thorough details on their manufacturing processes. You can also gain valuable insight into the best twin pushchair for you by joining parenting groups on the internet or attending local events to talk to other parents about their experiences and suggestions.

Stores

You'll have to carry a lot of things for twins, so look for a spacious undercarriage basket and plenty of compartments or pockets to stash your essentials. The storage areas should be easy to access even if the seats are in different positions. The UPPAbaby Vista 2 can carry twins or a toddler and baby and also add a 'PiggyBack' board for older children (PS120). The Roma Gemini can accommodate two newborns in the cocoons included (PS59 each), while the modified design allows you to put them in any direction. It features a handy standing fold that makes it easy to store between use.
