Buying a Twin parent facing pushchair

It is crucial to consider the various options when you are looking for a double pushchair. The most popular options are a tandem double buggy and side-by-side double buggies.

The iCandy Strawberry Twin buggy is the most popular among parents and will grow along with your family. It is a single buggy that is able to be converted into a double by adding two carrycots or a car seat.

Easy to maneuver

A double pushchair is a great option for families with twins or a baby and toddler. Double buggys or twin prams, as they're often referred to, are available in many different configurations that will fit any family. Some are side-by-side, whereas others have a front and other back for narrow spaces. Some are able to be converted into single prams once your children are old enough to use them. This makes them an ideal choice for families with growing children.

They are easier to steer than tandem twin buggies since the front wheels can be locked for additional stability. There is also more storage behind them. They are also more compact than other twin buggies, which means they are more convenient to maneuver through doorways and on public transport. They weigh less than other twin prams, and can be more mobile, but you may find it difficult to move them on kerbs or over rough terrain.

If you're after a more streamlined twin pushchair, the iCandy Peach is a stylish choice that's available in a variety of colours. It's also a great twin pram for infants and newborns thanks to its cosy newborn cocoons, which create an enclosed lie-flat space. It also has a small shopping basket, but it has a remarkable suspension, which means it can cope well on bumpy surfaces.

Many twin buggies are travel systems with car seats that attach to the frame. This is useful when travelling with toddlers and babies, as you don't need to transfer them from their car to their pushchair. This could cause them to be disturbed. The UPPAbaby Vista 2 is an example of twin pushchairs that can be used as a travel device, and it also features a clever mode that allows parents to be in the same room with their babies.

Tandem twin buggies, on other hand, are typically designed for children of similar age and are more likely to provide an individual seat for each child. They are less likely to include carrycots for babies less than six months old, and are generally larger than single buggies. They're still easily moveable, but most have an recline that is independent, meaning both kids can sit up straight or in a snooze-position.

Folding is easy

You'll want your double pushchair that folds easily if you're going to buy it. This makes it easier for you to move the stroller from one location to another and also allow you to store it in a smaller space. You can pick from many ways to fold your pushchair. Some include a convenient shoulder strap to make it easier for you to carry.

Most twin pushchairs can fold with one hand, but it is important to confirm before you buy that yours will do this. Some of the best models can be folded by removing the seat which makes them smaller. This is particularly useful in the case of a lack of storage space.

Another thing to watch out for is whether your twin pushchair will be capable of fitting through standard doors. The wider width of most tandem buggies can be a problem, so it's worth measuring the width of your doors before you buy. If this is the case, there are slimmer models out there that are designed to be more streamlined to get through doorways.

In our tests in our lab tests, the UPPAbaby Vista was a winner for its ability to fold and compact when not in use. It can carry two infant car seats and two toddler seats, so it's a good option for families growing. It has a large storage basket, and rubber tires with foam filling that won't flatten.

It's more affordable than some of the other models we've looked at and is an excellent choice for twins or babies with similar age.

Some twin pushchairs are light, making them a breeze to transport and handle trains, buses, and shopping aisles. The UPPAbaby Vista 2 comes to the forefront, thanks to its lightweight stroller frame that is able to handle rough terrain and four-wheel suspension. It can also be used to carry twins (or one baby and a toddler) by adding an 'in-piggyback' system.

Most twin buggys offer ample storage space It's important to check whether this is still accessible when both seats are in use. Certain side-by-side configurations can be difficult. The 'one above and one below' tandem can also block access by the legs of a child. Look for large compartments, baskets and pockets which can store everything from toys and snacks to sun cream and rain cover.

Think about the add-ons available. Some twin pushchairs come with various extras that can be beneficial, from special drink holders for your young ones to snack trays for older children. It is worth looking for a model that has these features, as well as an integrated sun canopy as well as a rain cover and the hood to keep your little ones protected.

A compact, easy-to-manage design is also useful for navigating narrow doors and aisles in public transport.

You can find models that fold with seats detached for even smaller storage space, but these are often best used at home. It is also important to be aware of the weight of the double buggy. The heavier buggies are difficult to maneuver and may be unable to get up and down kerbs.

Most twin pushchairs are fixed side-byside models, but some can be able to accommodate two carrycots or seat units (and sometimes a third). Some twin pushchairs can be used by single children with an age gap of less than two years or by siblings. The fantastic Bugaboo Donkey 5 Duo is an excellent example and features seats that can be reversible, letting the kids face each other or with you as well as different designs suitable for children from the time of birth until toddlerhood.
