Buying a Twin Pushchair

Direct4Baby provides a range of nifty twin and double infant strollers pushchairs.

A few of our favorites are the egg2 dual-use pushchairs. They open in new window which allow you to modify them for toddlers and babies by combining seat units and carrycots.

Side-by-Side

A side-by-side double buggy has the children positioned side by side, and can usually accommodate two fixed seats. They are typically thinner and lighter than a single stroller which makes it easier to maneuver through doorways.

Some seats can be adjusted so that a child can lie flat while others are designed to fit carrycots. This kind of twin bed is an excellent option for toddlers and babies.

Some models can be converted into a single buggy with a large shopping basket beside it, such as the Cybex Aton M5. This is a novel option that is not just practical but also fun for kids. It is essential to ensure that any additional accessories you buy are compatible with the model you own.

Tandem

The tandem pushchair is arranged behind the twin pushchair and provides two child-friendly spaces. This arrangement is particularly good for babies of similar ages as it means you can have your newborn in a cosy carrycot and your toddler in a seat unit or a baby carrier and car seat (though not all models are designed to accommodate both). Many of the top twin strollers have the front seat that reclines and a rear seat that is upright.

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, which means that your child's younger one can look at their older sibling or you can open them to the world for greater interaction. You can add a baby cocoon to both seats to create a lay-flat area for your infants and the rear seat comes with a raincover and hood for protection.

Alternatively, you could opt for an option like the Joolz Geo 3 which has been designed with a rear seat that opens up to reveal a large shopping basket when not in use. This allows you to easily move a double stroller with car seat pushchair around narrow doors. It is a great option for urban adventures. The curvature of the frame and the four-wheel suspension of this buggy makes it ideal for coping with uneven surfaces too.

Some tandem pushchairs such as the UPPAbaby Vista 2 start out as single buggies. A second seat is then added to the front or back, or under. This is an option that's cost-effective, durable and flexible if you plan to have another child in the near future.

The egg2 is a prime example of a twin pushchair designed to be used in many different configurations. It is popular with parents because of its elegant design and premium fabric.
