Think You re Ready To Start Doing Twin Pushchair Do This Test

Buying a Twin Pushchair From Birth

The stylish and sleek pushchair can be expanded to twin in a single click. In twin mode the frame is a little shorter, but it still has room for a basket in front of each seat or carrycot. It can also hold two carrycots/car seats depending on the age of your children.

The Venus comes with a newborn Cocoon that creates a lie-flat and world-facing environment for infants. The UPPAbaby brand has also redesigned the design to allow you to attach two cocoons side by side.

Easy to Manoeuvre

One of the most frequently used baby products is the car seat, a twin pushchair will be the baby's home for quite a while, so it's essential that it's simple to maneuver. The Roma Gemini was a favorite of our home testers due to the fact that it is lightweight it folds down small and has a great steering. It comes with lots of extras that rival brands charge separately.

The Silver Cross Wave is another ideal choice for siblings or twins of different ages as it's designed to accommodate two seats and car seats (it can also be used with 2 carrycots in mono mode). The clever frame expands widthways when you're required to use the Double Stroller For Tall Parents seat, but it remains a single footprint in mono mode so it's easier to navigate narrow passageways rather than side-byside buggies.

Our test subjects loved the design of this pushchair and its many extras. But it was also simple to use. It folds with a single click and compatible with most car seat models. It can be a bit long when in double buggy side by side mode but you can buy a "sidepack" for PS45 to make it smaller.

Convenient storage

If you have more than one child and a twin pushchair for birth with a handy and easily accessible storage area will help you keep everything organised. Choose a model with an ample basket beneath to store all the other accessories, such as baby changing mats rain covers, nappy bags and baby changing bags. A handy cup holder as well as snack tray are also an excellent addition, as it helps you avoid reaching behind your children for an ice-cold drink or snack when they begin to get thirsty or hungry.

Tandem twin pushchairs that have one seat behind the other, are great for siblings of varying age groups, but can be a bit more difficult to manoeuvre through small spaces than side-by-side models. The CYBEX Gazelle S or Silver Cross Wave are the top tandem options for twins. However the Evenflo Pivot Xpand nipper double buggy offers the most affordable option and can accommodate two infant car seat carriers or bassinets.

The UPPAbaby Vista 2 is an amazing twin stroller starting at birth. It can be used with two infant car seats or carrycots that double as carrycots (you can even include the UPPAbaby piggyBack board to make it suitable for three children). It has a lot of storage space in single-seat mode. There's also an under-seat basket that can accommodate an enormous shopping cart. It comes with a massive canopy to provide excellent protection from rain or sun and it's also a breeze to monitor your children with the clever peekaboo hoods.

Baby is a comfortable fit for both

The best twin pushchairs starting from birth are designed to keep both children comfortable while strolling. Be sure to look for padded seats with recline features, as well as adjustable calf bars. These will allow your child to stretch out and relax, or stand up straight to take in their surroundings.

You should also look for twin strollers that have a single handlebar, which makes it easier to steer the stroller with one hand. This will make it easier to navigate busy shopping streets and make tight turns. Some double buggies have two handlebars. However, these aren't always easy to control and could require you to use both hands to push.

Some twin pushchairs can accommodate different combinations of infant car seats and carrycots so you can modify the stroller as your child grows. For instance the Peach 7 offers two world-facing seats that can be used from birth, a cosy parent-facing carrycot as well as an infant seat, making it a great choice for siblings of varying ages.

Other alternatives include the UPPAbaby Vista 2 that can be used with twins or a toddler and a baby or even three kids by attaching the UPPAbaby PiggyBack board. It is simple to fold and folds down compactly.

Tandem buggies provide an elegant design than side-by-side models and are a great option for twins. They usually have one padded seat that reclines fully and is suitable for infants and the other one has a more upright position and is suitable for toddlers. Some can be made into one stroller by removing the seat in front. They can be tricky to fit on to public transport and might not be as stable as a single pushchair when moving up and down kerbs.

Certain models can fold up smaller than others, which can be beneficial if you're strapped in storage space at home. The egg2 is a chic option that can be used as a double or single and offers a variety of infant car seat configurations so you can modify to your twins' needs as they develop. It's also available in a variety of colours and comes with an elegant contemporary design.

Easy to clean

Regular cleaning and maintenance will keep your stroller in top condition for years to come. This will help prevent problems like staining, odours, and the growth of mould. It will also help prolong the life of your child's pushchair.

Begin by vacuuming the pushchair to loosen up dirt, crumbs and grime in all areas with a flexible nozzle attachment. This will allow you to reach into all terrain double stroller crevices and seams in the fabric components, including the canopy, seat and basket.

After vacuuming, remove the seat covers made of fabric pads, liners, and pads and wash them on the gentle cycle with mild detergent suitable for babies. To avoid water damage and corrosion ensure that all terrain double stroller parts are completely dry prior to the reassembling.

To eliminate any odours that have become hardened or sticky messes, it is recommended to regularly clean the non-fabric components of your twin stroller. This includes the hinges, wheels, and folding parts. If needed, apply a silicone-based grease, as suggested by the manufacturer to ensure smooth and continuous movement of all components. Regular inspections of your twin pushchair will identify any signs of wear and tear and allow you to address these issues promptly to minimize the chance of more issues.
