Buying a Double Pushchair For Twins Or Two Siblings Close in Age?

If you're expecting twins or two children close in age, a double pram and pushchair pushchair will give the flexibility you need to accommodate your growing family. Choose from side-by-side configurations or tandem models such as the Mountain Buggy Duet V3 that's slim enough to pass through doors that are standard.

Many models also have reclining seats that lay flat and are compatible with infant car seats. Some models can even be converted to single mode. The egg2 Pushchair is a favorite because of its design and flexibility.

Side by Side

The side-byside buggy is the most popular choice for families with twins, or siblings with different ages. These typically offer 2 fixed seats with a single canopy, and they're usually wider than an inline buggy, which gives each child the same view. They're easy to maneuver, and some have front and rear suspensions to allow to help with handling bumps or over kerbs when turning.

While they can cost more than other types of double buggies, they tend to have a higher resale value when you purchase an established brand. They are also ideal for jogging and be used on rough terrain. The seats provide plenty of space for your kids to sit comfortably. Buggies are available in a variety of colors and designs to match your family's style.

Some models come with additional accessories to help keep your babies comfortable. These may include head cushions, seat supports and baby blankets. They may also have pockets to store snacks and toys. Parents can also find a buggy that has an adult console to keep important items in one place.

The popular model's 2023 version features a fresh look and a bigger sun canopy, and fresh logos. It's a chic option for image-conscious parents and is compatible with iCandy car seats. It's also simple to put together, although Kerry found that it took quite a while to get everything out of the boxes. The packaging was well-labeled and clever and made it easy to identify what each piece would look similar to.

It's a little heavier than other double buggies, however, it's still light for an inline model. It's also extremely versatile and you can use it with one or two infant car seats. It can even switch from a single to a tandem with a single click, which is a big bonus for growing families.

The Vista v2 from UPPAbaby is another top pick for double pram pushchair strollers, and it's perfect for busy parents. It's super easy to maneuver through tight spaces and handles tough terrain easily. It comes with a large basket, independent recline on both seats, and a 5-point cushioned harness to keep your kids safe.

Tandem

The innovative frame of this pushchair is able to expand widthways, allowing you to add another seat without compromising space. This is a great choice for twins since it can accommodate two car seats or carrycots. It's also a great option for road trips. It's a bit heavier and longer than a few of its rivals, but it has plenty of storage space and a large basket for shopping. The iCandy Peach is a favourite among parents who are obsessed with their image and has an incredibly stylish, sleek design. Its reclining main seat also can be adjusted to four different positions, and will expand with your child's weight up to 25kg. It is simple thanks to the quick-release Velcro fasteners. This model can be used in tandem mode, with one child seated on top of the other. This is a great choice if you want to avoid disturbing your sleepy newborn.

The seat is set one in front of the other in this setup, so it can be harder for toddlers to distract one another when you're out and out and about. This type of pushchair typically has a padded main seat that is able to recline completely making it suitable for newborns. Many models have higher and a more upright seat for older children. In accordance with the model it is possible to set them up to face eachother or the world. It's easier to navigate narrow doors with a tandem pushchair but it can be hard to navigate kerbs or staircases with two children with you.

A great option for families with special needs This multi-functional pushchair is an ideal solution for children with disabilities that benefit from having another child to play with and encourage. It's expensive, but the sturdy design is built to last and there's plenty of storage space to store everything you'll need. It comes with a variety of accessories that allow you to personalize the buggy to suit your family's requirements like rain covers or lines.

Lightweight

The best lightweight double strollers are compact, easily maneuverable and nimble. Some have air-filled tires to aid in their glide on rough surfaces. They may also feature a one-handed fold and handy shoulder straps to make them easier to carry. Find additional accessories like a sunshade, rain cover and foot muff.

The Cybex Mios is a lightweight double stroller that comes at low cost. It's a traveling system that can be used as a light stroller, as well as a fully-functional travel system. A carrycot can be added to make it suitable for use from the time of birth. It is a side-by-side model and both seats recline independently making it a perfect position for babies and toddlers. It comes with a huge UPF 50+ canopy, peekaboo windows and a toddler seat that's fully cushioned and adjustable.

Another option is the UPPAbaby Vista 2. It can accommodate twins, or a baby and a toddler, and is compatible with a variety of car seats. It has sleek and stylish frames with big back wheels that can handle rough terrain, and it's also suitable for running. It can be a bit long when it's used in double mode, though, and there's no storage space underneath the seat.

When comparing different double pushchairs, think about the weight of each seat, frame and suspension. The heavier the buggy is and the heavier it is, the more difficult it will be to push. This is particularly in the case of uneven surfaces. Be sure to look at the dimensions of the folding and if you can remove the seat to make it smaller. Look for features such as a simple one-handed fold, that home tester Kirstie described as "genius" and a useful strap to sling over your shoulders.

You can also choose a tandem double stroller which places the children one behind the other. It's not as maneuverable as a side-by-side, but it's still a great option for many families, and may be more suitable for older toddlers. There are also tandems that have reclining seats which allow children to lie down or sit down based on their mood and needs.

Comfortable

A good double pushchair will help you get out more easily, whether you have twins or two kids of similar ages. There are a variety of options for comfortable ones on the market. If you're looking for an side-by-side model that will accommodate a carrycot and seat or a tandem model with an interchangeable front and rear seat, there's bound to be a suitable option for your family.

In addition to padded straps, buckles and headrests, search for seats with multiple recline positions and adjustable Calf rests. Typically, these are operated by single-handed buttons accessible from the back of the seat (though in our labs this could be difficult for parents with small hands). Some of the best double pushchairs come with a large UPF 50+ sun canopy with magnetic peekaboo windows as well as an easy-to-use hood extender that can protect your children from harmful UV rays.

Convertible Doubles

A great way to save money is to purchase a convertible pushchair which can be converted from single mode to double mode as your children grow. The egg2, for example, is a fashionable option that can be used from birth with the included baby or toddler carrier and even offers the RumbleSeat as an additional feature for older siblings. The reclining seats as well as the spacious carrycots were particularly well received by the home testers who adored the possibility of it growing with your family.

On the other the other hand, if you're searching for a low-cost option that will last from birth until toddlerhood, consider the iCandy Venus. It comes with a footmuff and seat, but it can also be transformed into a twin buggy from birth-sized stroller by using the brand's new Cocoons (available at a price of PS59 per piece). Our labs loved the ease of being able to switch between different configurations. They also found the directions to be easy and simple however it might require some time.

Some double pushchairs only allow you to seat your children in a row and are generally oriented towards the world. However there are some notable exceptions like the Bugaboo Donkey or Mountain Buggy Duet which can be configured both for front and parent facing (though this will increase overall chassis width). Kerb popping is usually easier with a tandem but getting through doorways and narrow aisles for shopping can be an issue at times.
