Why Pushchair Is Relevant 2023

Choosing a Double Pushchair Twin

If you have twins you'll need a double pushchair to get them from A to B. Our range of twin prams includes twin buggies that are able to be set up in different ways to suit your requirements.

Choose a stroller which can be folded in one step and easily lifted into your car. You may also prefer an ultra-light design that is easy to maneuver and navigate especially when you have busy high streets to navigate.

Side-by-Side

They are the most popular type of double pushchair and usually can accommodate two children together. They tend to be a bit wider than single pushchairs. This means they may be less nimble on the footpaths and may be a bit difficult to navigate through the kerbs with a car attached. The extra size makes them easier to maneuver through doorways, and they are more evenly distributed, so it is less burdensome to carry around on your back.

They can be used as a twin pram and travel system from birth, and many models can be used with a carrycot or two car seats. Some models can be converted to one-mode, with a basket beside (like the Cybex Venus).

One of the most excellent examples of this is the Bugaboo Donkey 5 which, in Twin Mode, allows you to put the rear seat and a carrycot side by side. This creates a fully enclosed space for twins, and is ideal for newborns. The pram also comes with a couple of very cool accessories, such as the newborn cocoons that can be attached to face either direction (for a twin-facing pram) or facing forwards (for a normal single). It's not as light as some other options but it is extremely well-thought out.

Lightweight

Cybex is known for its unique pushchairs, and the single-to-double is no exception. The clever frame can be expanded to accommodate an additional seat and can be used it as a twin from birth with the addition of two newborn cocoons (PS59 each) that create enclosed lie-flat spaces for infants. It is also possible to use it as mono mode with just one child thanks to a large basket that sits behind the seat. And it comes with rear and front suspensions to take on bumps and uneven surfaces a little more easily. Our reviewers selected this car as their top pick.

Available in a variety of stylish colors.

Tandem

If you're planning to have twins, you should consider a tandem pushchair that allows the children to be seated side by side and be able to see each one another. These are great for things like going to the zoo since the children will be able to look at all the animals together. They're also ideal for parents who need to keep one eye on their toddler and the other on their baby, as they can see both of them simultaneously.

Some tandem pushchairs are extremely flexible, as they can be converted to single mode. This is especially useful for families with more than two kids (or just your eldest is no longer a need for a buggy). This will help you avoid having to store a buggy that's empty which can be costly.

The Cybex Venus, for example, can be used either in double pram pushchair or mono mode. The frame can be expanded to accommodate an additional seat. It's not the lightest of pushchairs, however it comes with a large basket for shopping which is located behind the front seat in double mode (and behind the seat in mono mode). The seats can be set up so that they face one the other or higher to see what the other is doing.

Other double tandem pushchairs, such as the Joolz Geo 3 can seat one on top of the other, or side-by-side. The sleek, compact frame makes it easier to maneuver through doors and aisles in supermarkets. Certain models can be used on rough terrain, or for a jogging path due to their large rear wheels and four-wheel suspension.

Another benefit of a tandem pushchair is that it will often use two carrycots or a car seat and buggy seat. This allows you to build a best travel pram system from the outset and save money on separate purchases. It is important to remember that tandems are heavier and longer than single pushchairs and can feel less stable as you go over uneven surfaces. These pushchairs also need to be dismantled for fitting into cars.
