Buying a Twin Pushchair From Birth

The sleek and stylish pushchair can be expanded to twin in just one click. In twin mode, the frame is smaller but has space for a basket of groceries alongside each car seat, or it can be used with two car seats or carrycots to accommodate siblings of various ages.

The Venus also comes with a newborn cocoon to create a flat, comfortable environment, and a parent or world-facing option for infants. The UPPAbaby team has even updated the design so that you can attach two cocoons.

Easy to manoeuvre

A twin pushchair is one of the most popular baby products, right after the car seat. It will be the baby's place of residence for a long time, so it’s important to ensure that it is easy to maneuver. Our test subjects loved the Roma Gemini for this - it's light, folds tiny and has excellent steering. It also comes with a variety of extras that rival brands sell separately, including an upholstered seat liner that is fleecey.

The Silver Cross Wave is another great option for siblings or twins of varying ages, as it's designed to take two seats and car seats (it can also be used with 2 carrycots in mono mode). Its clever frame expands in width when you require the double seat, yet it maintains the same footprint when in mono mode, making it easier to navigate narrow passageways.

Our testers loved the look of this stroller and its many extras. It was simple to use. It folds easily in a single click and is compatible with the majority of car seat models. It's a little long when in thule double stroller mode but you can buy a'sidepack' for PS45 to make it smaller.

Convenient storage

A twin pushchair with a storage space that is easily accessible and convenient can help you stay organized for more than one baby. Choose a model that has a large storage basket under the seat to keep all the extra items like changing mats for babies and a nappy bag. A handy cup holder and snack tray are an excellent option, since it saves you reaching behind your children for an ice-cold drink or snack when they start to get thirsty or hungry.

Tandem twin pushchairs with a single seat in the front are great for siblings of varying ages, however they aren't always easy to maneuver around narrow spaces. The CYBEX Gazelle S and Silver Cross Wave offer the best tandem options for twins while the Evenflo Pivot Xpand smallest double buggy is more budget-friendly and can take two infant car seats or bassinets in double buggy converts to single mode.

The UPPAbaby Vista 2 is an amazing twin stroller starting at 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 kids). It's got plenty of storage space even in single-seat mode. There's also a large under-seat storage basket that's big enough to hold an enormous shopping cart. It has a huge canopy to provide incredible protection from the sun or rain and it's also simple to monitor your children by using the clever peekaboo hoods.

Comfortable for both babies

The best twin pushchairs are made to keep both children content and comfortable on their strolls. Be sure to look for padded seats recline features, recline features, and adjustable calf bars. These will allow your child to stretch out and relax, or stand up straight to take in their surroundings.

It is also recommended to look for twin strollers with a single handlebar, which makes it easier to steer the stroller using one hand. This will let you navigate through busy shopping streets or make tight turns. Some double buggies have two handlebars. However, they can be difficult to control and may require that you use both hands to push.

Some twin pushchairs are able to accommodate different combinations of carrycots and infant car seats so you can modify them as your babies develop. The Peach 7 is a great option for siblings of different age ranges, as it comes with two seats that can be used from birth and a carrycot with the parent facing.

The UPPAbaby PiggyBack Board can be connected to the UPPAbaby vista 2 for use with twins, a toddler and a baby, or three children. It is simple to fold and folds down compactly.

Tandem buggies are another good option for twins and offer an appearance that is more sleek than side-by-side models. One seat is cushioned and reclines to a full-angle for newborns while the other is more upright and suitable for toddlers. Some of them can be converted to a single pushchair by removing the front seat. Some aren't able to be slid onto public transportation, and they might not be as stable moving on kerbs, as a single-pushchair.

Certain models can fold up smaller than others, which could be beneficial if you're strapped in storage space at home. The egg2 is a chic choice that can be used as a double running buggy or single and offers a variety of carrycot and infant car seats so that you can alter to your twins' needs as they develop. It comes in a variety colors and features a stylish modern design.

Easy to clean

Regular maintenance and cleaning will keep your twin stroller side by side pushchair in good condition for many years to come. This will help prevent problems like fabric stains, odours and mould growth and also prolong its lifespan.

Start by vacuuming the pushchair to remove dirt and grime, as well as crumbs and crumbs in all areas using a nozzle that is flexible attachment. This will allow you to get into all the crevices and seams of the fabric parts, including the seat, canopy and basket.

After vacuuming, take off the fabric seat covers, pads, and liners and wash them on an easy cycle using gentle detergent for infants. To avoid corrosion and water damage, ensure that all parts are dry prior to rebuilding.

To get rid of any odours that have hardened or sticky messes, you should regularly clean the non-fabric components of your twin stroller. This includes the wheels, hinges, and folding parts. If needed, a silicone-based lubricant must be used as recommended by the manufacturer to ensure smooth and consistent movement of all components. Regular inspections of your twin pushchair can reveal any signs of wear and tear and enable you to address these issues as soon as possible to minimize the chance of more problems.
