Buying a Twin Pushchair From Birth
The stylish and sleek pushchair can be expanded to twin in a single click. In twin stroller mode the frame is a little shorter, but it still has room for a basket next to each seat or carrycot. It can also hold two carrycots/car seats depending on the age of your children.
The Venus comes with a newborn Cocoon that creates a lie-flat and world-facing environment for infants. The UPPAbaby team has even tweaked the design to allow you attach two cocoons side-by-side.
Easy to Manoeuvre
One of the most used baby products is a car seat, a twin pushchair will be the baby's home for a long time, so it's crucial that it's easy to manoeuvre. The Roma Gemini was a favorite of our home testers due to the fact that it's light it folds down small and has excellent steering. It also comes with loads of accessories that rival brands don't sell separately, like the seat liner, which is padded and fleecey.
The Silver Cross Wave is another excellent choice for siblings or twins of different ages as it's designed to fit 2 seats and car seats (it can also be used with 2 carrycots in mono mode). The clever frame expands in width when you need the double seat but maintains one footprint when you're in mono mode, making it easier to navigate narrow double Stroller passageways.
In addition to the appearance and comes with plenty of features, our testers found this pushchair really stood out due to its ease of use. It has a smart fold that is a single-click and it's also compatible with most car seats, so you can just pop them in and go. It can be a bit long when it's in double mode but you can buy a'sidepack' for PS45 to make it more compact.
Convenient storage
If you have more than one child, a twin pushchair from birth with a convenient and easily accessible storage space can help you keep things organised. Choose a model with an enormous basket under to store all the additional accessories like baby changing mats rain covers, nappy bags and baby changing bags. A convenient cup holder and snack tray are an excellent choice, as it will help you reach behind your kids for an ice-cold drink or snack when they get thirsty or hungry.
Tandem twin pushchairs with one seat in the front are ideal for children with different ages, but they can be more difficult to maneuver through tight spaces. The CYBEX Gazelle S or Silver Cross Wave are the best tandem choices for twins. However, the Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double offers a more affordable option and can accommodate two infant car seats bassinets or infant carriers.
The UPPAbaby Vista 2 stroller is a twin stroller that is able to be used from birth. It can be used with two infant car seat or carrycots and in double mode. It can be paired with the UPPAbaby PiggyBack Board make it suitable for three children. It's got plenty of storage space when used in single-seat mode. There's also a large under-seat basket big enough to accommodate a huge shopping cart. It has a huge canopy for exceptional protection from the sun or rain, and it's also easy to monitor your children by using the clever peekaboo hoods.
It is comfortable for both babies and toddlers.
The best twin pushchairs starting from birth are designed to keep both children at ease during strolls. Find adjustable calf bars with padded seats, as well as recline features. They will give your child the chance to relax and stretch out or sit up straight to observe their surroundings.
It's also worth considering a twin pram with one handlebar to make it easier to steer one-handed. This will help you to navigate busy shopping streets and make tight turns. Double buggies may have two handlebars but this may be difficult to control and may require two hands for pushing.
Some twin pushchairs are able to accommodate various combinations of infant car seats and carrycots, so you can adapt the stroller as your child grows. For example the Peach 7 offers two world-facing seats suitable for babies from birth, a cozy parent-facing carrycot and an infant seat, making it an ideal choice for siblings of various ages.
The UPPAbaby PiggyBack Board can be connected to the UPPAbaby Vista 2 for use with twins, a toddler and a baby, or even three children. It is easy to use and folds up easily.
Tandem buggies offer more sleek appearance than side-byside models and are a great option for twins. They usually have one cushioned seat that reclines completely and is suitable for newborns and the other one has a more upright posture and is suitable for toddlers. Some can be made into a single stroller by removing the seat in the front. Some aren't easy to fit on public transport, and may not be as stable when traveling between kerbs like a single-pushchair.
Some models can be folded into smaller sizes than others. This is essential if your home storage space is small. The egg2 is a chic choice that can be used as a double or a single and offers a variety of infant car seats so that you can modify it as your twins grow. It's also available in a range of colours and has an elegant contemporary design.
Easy to clean
Regular maintenance and cleaning will keep your twin pushchair in a good condition for many long time to come. This will help avoid issues such as staining, odours, and mould growth, and prolong its lifespan.
Start by vacuuming the pushchair to remove dirt dust, crumbs and grime from all areas with a flexible nozzle attachment. This will enable you to get into all the crevices seams, seams and fabric parts like the seat, canopy and the basket.
After vacuuming, remove the seat covers made of fabric pads, liners, and cushions and wash them on the gentle cycle with gentle detergent for infants. To prevent corrosion and water damage ensure that all parts are dry prior to reassembling.
Non-fabric components, such as the wheels, hinges and folding components of your twin pushchair need to be regularly cleaned with a clean cloth to get rid of any sticky residues or hardened odours. If required, use a silicone-based grease as recommended by the manufacture to ensure smooth and consistent movement of all components. Monitoring your twin pushchair on a regular basis can help you recognize any signs of wear, allowing you to repair them as soon as possible.
