Buying a Twin Pushchair From Birth
The stylish and sleek pushchair expands to a twin in just one click. In twin mode, the frame is a bit smaller, but has space for a basket of groceries alongside each seat/carrycot. It can accommodate two carrycots or car seats to accommodate siblings of various age.
The Venus also comes with a newborn cocoon to create a flat, comfortable environment, and a parent or the world-facing option for infants. UPPAbaby has even redesigned the design so that you can attach two cocoons.
Easy to manoeuvre
A twin pushchair is one of the most popular baby items, following a car-seat. It will be the baby's primary 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's lightweight, compact and has excellent steering. It comes with a lot of extras, and other brands will charge separately.
The Silver Cross Wave is another great option for twins or siblings with different ages since it's designed to accommodate 2 seats and car seats (it can even be used with two carrycots in mono mode). The clever frame expands its width when you need to use the double seat, yet it remains a single footprint in mono mode so it's much easier to navigate narrow spaces rather than side-byside buggies.
Our testers loved the look of this stroller and its many extras. But it was also user-friendly. It has a smart, single-click to fold and it's also compatible with most car seats, so you can simply take them out and go. It's a bit big in double mode, but you can purchase a'sidepack' to reduce it for PS45.
Convenient storage
A twin pushchair with a storage space that is easy to access and easy to access will allow you to stay organized if you have more than one baby. Select a model with a large storage basket under the seat to store all of the additional accessories like changing mats for babies and a nappy bag. It's also a good idea to add an eating tray and a cup holder, so that you aren't bending over behind your child to get a snack or drink when they feel hungry.
Tandem twin pushchairs, with one seat in front of the other, are great for siblings of varying ages but may be a little more difficult to manoeuvre through narrow spaces than side-by-side models. The CYBEX Gazelle S and Silver Cross Wave provide the most suitable tandem options for twins, while the Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double is more affordable and can be used with two infant car seat carriers or bassinets in double mode.
The UPPAbaby Vista 2 is an amazing twin stroller from birth and works with two infant car seats or carrycots that double as carrycots (you could also add the UPPAbaby PiggyBack Board to make it suitable for three children). In single-seat mode, it comes with plenty of storage space too and a large under-seat storage basket that's large enough to fit a large shopping bag. It has a huge canopy to provide excellent protection from sun or rain, and it's also easy to check on your baby by using the clever peekaboo hoods.
Comfortable for both babies
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. These will give your child the chance to stretch out and relax, or sit straight and observe their surroundings.
It is also worthwhile to look for twin prams with one handlebar to make it easier to steer one-handed. This will let you navigate through busy shopping streets or make tight turns. Some double buggies come with two handlebars, but this isn't always easy to control and may require both hands for pushing.
Some twin pushchairs can be used with different combinations of infant car seats and carrycots so you can adapt the stroller as your baby 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 the perfect choice for siblings of varying age.
The UPPAbaby PiggyBack Board can be attached to the UPPAbaby Vista 2 for use with twins, toddlers and a baby, or three children. It is easy to use and folds compactly.
Tandem buggies offer a more streamlined look than side-byside buggies and are a great choice for twins. One seat is cushioned and reclines to a full angle for newborns and the other is more upright and appropriate for toddlers. Some can be converted to a single pushchair simply by taking the front seat. Some are difficult to fit onto public transport, and may not be as stable when traveling up and down kerbs as a single-pushchair.
Some models can be folded up smaller than others. This is essential for those whose storage space is limited. Egg2 is a beautiful option that can be used for a single or a double. tandem double stroller has a variety of carrycots and infant car seats, so you can modify it as your twins get bigger. It's also available in a range of colors and features a modern and stylish design.
Easy to clean
Regular maintenance and cleaning will keep your twin stroller in great condition for many years to come. This will help prevent issues like fabric stains, odours, and the growth of mould. It can also extend the life of your pushchair.
Start by vacuuming the pushchair to get rid of dirt and grime, as well as crumbs and crumbs in all areas using a nozzle that is flexible attachment. This will help get into all the crevices and seams of the fabric components, including the seat, canopy and basket.
After the vacuuming has been completed and the vacuuming is complete, follow the manufacturer's instructions for removing the fabric seat covers pads, liners and pads off the chassis frame and machine washing them on a gentle cycle using mild detergent that is suitable for infants. To prevent corrosion and water damage, ensure that all parts are completely dried before the reassembling.
Non-fabric components, such as the wheels, hinges and the folding parts of your twin pushchair must be regularly cleaned with a clean cloth to remove any sticky messes or hardened odours. If needed, a silicone-based lubricant should be used in accordance with the recommendations of the manufacturer to ensure smooth and constant movement of all components. Checking your twin pushchair regularly can help you recognize any signs of wear, allowing you to repair them as soon as you can.
