Buying a Twin Pushchair From Birth
The stylish and sleek pushchair can be expanded to twin in a single click. In twin mode the clever frame is narrower but still allows for a shopping basket alongside each car seat, or it can be used with two carrycots or car seats to suit siblings of varying ages.
The Venus also comes with a newborn cocoon to create a lying-flat environment, and a parent or world-facing options for infants. The UPPAbaby brand has also redesigned the design so that you can connect two cocoons together.
Easy to Manoeuvre
A twin pushchair is one of the most frequently used baby products, after a car-seat. It will be the baby's place of residence for a long time, so it is essential to ensure that it is easy to maneuver. The Roma Gemini was a favorite of our home testers due to the fact that it is lightweight, compact and has a great steering. It comes with a variety of extras, and competitors charge separately.
Silver Cross Wave is a great option for twins and siblings of different ages because it can be used with two car seats or carrycots (it can also be used in mono mode). The clever frame expands widthways when you're required to use the double seat, yet keeps a single footprint when in mono mode so it's more maneuverable through narrow passageways than buggies that are side-by-side.
Our testers loved the look of this pushchair and its numerous features. However, it was user-friendly. It has a smart folding mechanism that can be folded with a single click. it's also compatible with most car seats so it's easy to take them out and go. It's a bit long when in double mode but you can buy a "sidepack" for PS45 to make it more compact.
Convenient storage
A twin pushchair with a storage space that is easy to access and convenient can help you stay organized for more than one baby. Choose a model with an enormous basket under to store all the additional 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 option, since it saves you reaching behind your children for a drink and snack when they feel thirsty or hungry.
Tandem twin pushchairs with one seat in the front are ideal for siblings with different ages, but they aren't always easy to maneuver around narrow spaces. The CYBEX Gazelle S and Silver Cross Wave offer the best tandem options for twins, while the Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double is more budget-friendly and can take two infant car seats or bassinets in double mode.
The UPPAbaby Vista 2 stroller is a twin stroller that is able to be used from birth. It works with two infant car seats or carrycots and also in double mode. It can be paired with the UPPAbaby PiggyBack Board allow it to be used by three children. It's got plenty of storage space in single-seat mode. It also has a huge under-seat basket big enough to accommodate a huge shopping cart. It has a large canopy that provides excellent protection from sun or rain. The clever peekaboo hoods make it simple to keep your baby's attention.
It is comfortable for both babies and toddlers.
The most effective twin pushchairs from birth will be designed to ensure that both children are comfortable during strolls. Be sure to look out for seats with padding recline features, recline features, and adjustable bar for the calf. These features allow your child to relax and stretch out or sit straight up to observe their surroundings.
You should also look for twin prams with a single handlebar, which makes it easier to steer the stroller with one hand. This will allow you to navigate through busy shopping streets or make precise turns. Some double buggies have two handlebars, but they can be difficult to control and could require that you use both hands to push.
Some twin pushchairs can accommodate different combinations of carrycots and infant car seats, so you can modify them as your babies grow. For instance, the Peach 7 offers two world-facing seats suitable for babies from birth, a cozy parent-facing carrycot, and an infant seat, making it a great choice for siblings of varying age.
Other alternatives include the UPPAbaby Vista 2 which can be used with twins or a toddler and baby or even three kids by affixing the UPPAbaby PiggyBack board. It is easy to fold and folds down compactly.
Tandem buggies are an excellent option for twins. They offer an appearance that is more sleek than side-by-side models. One seat is padded and reclines to a full angle for babies while the other is more upright and suitable for toddlers. Some of them can be converted to a single pushchair by taking off the front seat. They can be difficult to connect to public transport and may not be as stable as a single pushchair going across kerbs.
Some models are able to fold up smaller than others, which can be a good thing if you're low on storage space at home. The egg2 is an elegant option that can be used for either a single or double. It also comes with a range of carrycots as well as infant car seats so you can alter it as your twins grow larger. It's also available in a variety of colours and comes with a lovely contemporary style.
