Buying a Twin Pushchair

Direct4Baby provides a range of innovative twin and double pushchairs.

Our favourites include the egg2 dual-use pushchairs. It opens a new window that can be modified for both newborns and toddlers with a combination carrycot and seat unit.

Side-by-Side

A side-by-Side by Side double pushchairs double buggy has children placed on opposite sides and will usually have 2 fixed seats. They are often smaller than a single pushchair, making them easier to get through doorways, and more evenly weighted, which makes them easy to manoeuvre between kerbs.

Some have seats that are adjustable and allow a child to lie flat, and others can be adapted to carrycots. This kind of twin is a great option from the beginning, and can be used throughout toddlerhood, and beyond.

Some models can be converted into a single buggy with a large shopping basket beside it, like the Cybex Aton M5. This is a fantastic option for kids that is both practical and fun. It is important to make sure that any additional accessories you purchase are compatible with the model you own.

Tandem

Twin pushchairs, also known as tandems, are set one behind the other, and provide two places for your children. This arrangement is particularly good for children of the same age because it allows you to have your baby in a comfortable carrycot, and your toddler in a seat unit or a car seat (though not all models can accommodate both). Many of the best twin pushchairs come with a padded front seat that reclines and a rear upright seat.

The Cybex Venus is an excellent model of a twin pushchair. The rear seat offers a full recline and is suitable from birth, whereas the front seat can be set either way - this means that your child can look at their older sibling or you can turn them towards the world for greater interaction. You can add a baby cocoon to both seats to create an enclosed sleeping area for your little ones and the rear seat comes with a hood and raincover to protect.

You can also select one of the models like the Joolz Geo 3 which has been designed with a rear seat that opens up to reveal a huge shopping basket when not in use. This makes it easy to move a double pushchair through narrow doors. It's a great option for urban excursions. The bent frame and four-wheel suspension make it ideal for dealing with uneven surfaces too.

Some tandem pushchairs, like the UPPAbaby Vista 2 start out as single buggies. A second seat can be added to the front or back, or under. This is a choice that's affordable, durable, and adaptable if you're planning to have another child in the near-term.
