Buying a Twin Pushchair

Whether you want to watch both of your munchkins in a tandem that is oriented towards parents or simply appreciate the convenience of a double buggy with carrycot pushchair, shop Direct4Baby's unique range of twin and double pushchairs.

Our favorites are the egg2 dual-use pushchairs. They open a new window that can be modified to toddlers and infants with a combination carrycots and seat unit.

Side-by-Side

A side-by-side double buggy has the children positioned on opposite sides and usually has two fixed seats. They tend to be smaller and lighter than a single stroller, making it easier to maneuver through doors.

Some seats can be adjusted so that a child can lie flat, while others are designed to accommodate carrycots. This type of twin is a fantastic option from the beginning, and can be used throughout the toddler years and beyond.

Some models can be converted into an all-in-one buggy with a large shopping basket beside it, like the Cybex Aton M5. This is a fantastic option for kids that's both practical and enjoyable. It is essential to ensure that any accessories you purchase are compatible with the model you already have.

Tandem

The tandem pushchair sits behind the twin pushchair, and provides two spaces for children. This arrangement is ideal for children of the same age, as you can put your baby in a carrycot while your toddler sat in a car seat or in a car seat or baby carrier (though not all models allow both). A lot of the top twin strollers come with the front seat that reclines and the rear seat which is upright.

The Cybex Venus is a great example of this type of twin pushchair. The rear seat is full recline and is suitable from birth, while the front seat can be set either way - which means your younger child can look at their sibling or you can turn them out to the world for greater interaction. You can also add a newborn cocoon for both seats to create an enclosed lay-flat area for your children. Additionally, the rear seat comes with a raincover and hood to protect.

You can also pick a model like the Joolz Geo 3 with a rear seat which can be opened to reveal a huge shopping basket when not being used. This lets you easily move a double tandem pushchair pushchair through narrow doorways. It is a great choice for urban adventures. The curvature of the frame and the four-wheel suspension make it ideal for coping with uneven surfaces too.

Some tandem pushchairs such as the UPPAbaby Vista 2 start out as single to double stroller buggies. A second seat is then added to the front or back, or under. This is a choice that's affordable, durable, and flexible if you're planning to have another child in the near future.
