Buying a twin pushchair from birth; This Internet site,
The sleek and stylish pushchair expands to a twin in just one click. In twin mode, the frame is narrower and still has room for a basket in front of each seat/carrycot. It can also accommodate two car seats or carrycots based on the age of your children.
The Venus also comes with a newborn baby cocoon to create a lying-flat environment and parent or the world-facing option for infants. UPPAbaby has even redesigned the design to allow you can connect two cocoons.
Easy to Manoeuvre
One of the most frequently used baby products after a car seat, a twin pushchair will be the baby's primary residence for a long time, so it's crucial that it's easy to move. Our home-based testers loved the Roma Gemini for this - it's light, folds small and has superb steering. It also comes with loads of extras that rival brands offer separately, such as the seat liner, which is padded and fleecey.
The Silver Cross Wave is another excellent choice for siblings or twins of varying ages, as it's designed to take two seats and car seats (it can even be used with two carrycots in mono mode). Its clever frame expands its width when you need to use the double seat, but keeps a single footprint when in mono mode, making it easier to navigate narrow passageways than buggies that are side-by-side.
Apart from the appearance and comes with plenty of features, our testers found this stroller really stood out due to its simplicity of use. It folds easily in a single click and is compatible with all car seat models. It's a bit long when in lightweight double stroller mode but you can buy a "sidepack" for PS45 to make it more compact.
Convenient storage
A twin pushchair with a storage area that is easily accessible and practical will allow you to stay organized if you have more than one baby. Pick a model that comes with a large storage basket under the seat to store all of the additional accessories like baby changing mats and nappy bag. A handy cup holder and snack tray is also an excellent choice, as it saves you reaching behind your children to grab drinks and snacks when they begin to feel hungry or thirsty.
Tandem twin pushchairs that have one seat in the front are great for siblings of different ages, but they are more difficult to maneuver through tight spaces. The CYBEX Gazelle S and Silver Cross Wave provide the most suitable tandem options for twins while the Evenflo Pivot Xpand double stroller for twins is more budget-friendly and can take two infant car seat carriers or bassinets in double umbrella stroller mode.
The UPPAbaby Vista 2 is an incredible twin stroller that is available from birth. It works with two infant car seats or carrycots in double mode (you could also add the UPPAbaby PiggyBack board to make it suitable for three children). In single-seat mode, it has plenty of storage space too and a large under-seat storage basket that's big enough for a large shopping bag. It comes with a large canopy for incredible protection from the sun or rain, and it's also easy to check on your baby by using the clever peekaboo hoods.
It is comfortable for both babies and toddlers.
The most effective twin pushchairs from birth will be designed to keep both children at ease during strolls. Look for adjustable calf bars, padded seats and recline features. These features will allow your child to relax and stretch or sit straight up to observe their surroundings.
You should also consider twin strollers that have a single handlebar, which allows you to control the stroller one-handed. This will make it easier to navigate busy shopping streets and navigate tight turns. Some double buggies have two handlebars however this can be harder to control and could require both hands to push.
Some twin pushchairs are able to accommodate different combinations of carrycots and infant car seats so you can adapt them as your babies develop. The Peach 7 is a great choice for siblings with varying age groups, since it has two seats that are suitable for babies from birth. It also has an infant carrycot that faces the parent.
Other options include the UPPAbaby Vista 2 which can be used with twins, a baby and toddler or even three children by affixing the UPPAbaby PiggyBack board. It is easy to use and folds up easily.
Tandem buggies are another good alternative for twins and provide a more streamlined appearance than side-by-side models. One seat is padded and reclines to a full angle for infants while the other is more upright and suitable for toddlers. Some can be converted into a single pushchair by taking off the front seat. They can be tricky to attach to public transport and may not be as sturdy as a single pushchair when travelling across kerbs.
Certain models can fold smaller than others, which can be important if you're short on storage space at home. The egg2 is an elegant option that can be used for either a single or double pram buggy. It also has a range of carrycots as well as infant car seats, so you can modify it as your twins get larger. It's also available in a variety of colors and features an elegant contemporary design.
Easy to clean
Regular maintenance and cleaning will keep your twin pushchair in excellent condition for years to come. This will prevent issues such as fabric stains, odours and the growth of mould and extend its life.
Start by vacuuming your stroller using a nozzle that is flexible to remove dirt, crumbs and grime from every area. This will allow you to access all crevices, seams and fabric components like the seat, canopy and the basket.
Once the vacuuming is complete and the vacuuming is complete, follow the manufacturer's instructions for removing the fabric seat covers, pads and liners from the chassis frame and machine washing them on a gentle cycle using a mild detergent appropriate for infants. Ensure all parts are completely dry before reassembly to prevent corrosion or water damage.
Non-fabric components, such as the hinges, wheels, and folding components of your twin pushchair should be cleaned regularly using an uncluttered cloth to eliminate 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 consistent movement of all components. Checking your twin pushchair regularly can help you identify any signs of wear, allowing you to repair them as soon as possible.
