Buying a Twin Pushchair From Birth

A stylish and sleek pushchair that can be expanded into a twin with just one click. In twin mode, the frame is smaller but has space for a shopping basket alongside each car seat, or it can take two car seats or carrycots to suit siblings of varying ages.

The Venus comes with a new Cocoon which creates a lying-flat and open environment for infants. The UPPAbaby team has even updated the design so that it is possible to attach two cocoons.

Easy to manoeuvre

One of the most used baby products is car seats, a twin pushchair will be the baby's mainstay for quite some time so it's important that it's easy to move. The Roma Gemini was a favorite of our home testers because it is lightweight, compact and has a great steering. It also comes with plenty of extras that other brands sell separately, including an upholstered seat liner that is fleecey.

The Silver Cross Wave is another great option for twins or siblings with different ages since it's designed to fit two seats and car seats (it is also able to be used with two carrycots in mono mode). The clever frame expands in width when you need to use the double seat, yet maintains a single footprint in mono mode so it's more maneuverable through narrow passageways than buggies that are side-by-side.

In addition to the fact that it looks great and has plenty of extras we tested, this stroller really stood out due to its ease of use. It's easy to fold with just a click and is compatible with all car seat models. It can be a bit long when in double push chair mode, but you can buy a'sidepack' for PS45 to make it more compact.

Convenient storage

A twin pushchair with a storage area that is easy to access and convenient can help you stay organized when you have more than one child. Pick a model that comes with a large storage basket under the seat to store all the extra items like changing mats for babies and a nappy bag. A handy cup holder as well as snack tray is also an excellent choice, as it will help you reach behind your children to grab drinks and snacks when they start to feel hungry or thirsty.

Tandem twin pushchairs that have one seat in the front are ideal for children of different ages, but they are more difficult to maneuver through tight spaces. The CYBEX Gazelle S or Silver Cross Wave are the most suitable tandem alternatives for twins. However, the Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double offers the most affordable option and can accommodate two infant car seat bassinets or infant carriers.

The UPPAbaby Vista 2 is an incredible twin buggy stroller that is available from birth. It can be used with two infant car seats or carrycots in double mode (you could also include the UPPAbaby piggyBack board to make it suitable for three kids). In single-seat mode, it has plenty of storage space as a spacious under-seat basket that's big enough for an enormous shopping bag. It has a huge canopy to provide exceptional protection from the sun or rain and it's also simple to check on your babies by using the clever peekaboo-hoods.

Baby is a comfortable fit for both

The best twin pushchairs are made to keep both children entertained and comfortable during their strolls. Look for adjustable calf bars as well as padded seats and recline features. They will give your child the chance to relax and stretch out or sit straight and observe their surroundings.

You should also look for twin strollers with one handlebar that makes it easier to steer the stroller using one hand. This will allow you to navigate through busy shopping streets or make precise turns. Double buggies may have two handlebars, but this can be harder to control and may require both hands to push.

Some twin pushchairs can be used with 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 are suitable from birth, a cosy parent-facing carrycot and a toddler seat - making it an ideal choice for siblings of varying age.

Other options include the UPPAbaby Vista 2 that can be used with twins, a baby and toddler or even three kids by attaching the UPPAbaby PiggyBack board. It features a slim frame that allows it to be used in double mode and can be folded down for easy transport.

Tandem buggies provide a more streamlined look than side-byside buggies and are a great choice for twins. They typically have a padded seat that reclines fully and is suitable for newborns and the other has a more upright position and can be used by toddlers. Some of them can be converted to a single pushchair by taking the front seat. They aren't easy to connect to public transport and might not be as stable as a single pushchair when going across kerbs.

Some models are able to fold down smaller than others, which could be important if you're short in storage space at home. Egg2 is a beautiful choice that can be used for either a single or double. It also has various carrycots and infant car seats, so you can modify it as your twins get bigger. It's also available in a variety of colors and features a lovely contemporary style.
