Buying a Twin Pushchair From Birth
A sleek and stylish pushchair twin that expands into a twin in one click. In twin mode, the frame is smaller, but still allows for a basket in front of each seat/carrycot. It can also take two car seats/car carrycots depending on the age of your children.
The Venus also comes with a newborn cocoon to create a flat, comfortable environment and parent or the world-facing option for infants. The UPPAbaby team has even tweaked the design to allow you attach two cocoons together.
Easy to Manoeuvre
A twin pushchair is one of the most popular baby products, right after a car-seat. It will be the baby's place of residence for a long period of time, so it's essential to make it easy to move. Our home testers loved the Roma Gemini for this - it's lightweight, folds up tiny and has excellent steering. It also comes with plenty of extras that rival brands offer separately, such as an upholstered seat liner that is fleecey.
Silver Cross Wave is a ideal choice for twins and siblings of different ages because it can be used with two car seats or carrycots (it can be used in mono mode). The frame's clever design can be expanded in width when you need a double seat, but it has a single footprint when in mono mode which makes it easier for you to navigate narrow passageways.
Aside from the appearance and has lots of extras the test group found that this pushchair really stood out for its ease of use. It's got a clever, single-click to fold and it's also compatible with most car seats, so you can just put them in and go. It's a little long when it's in double mode but you can buy a'sidepack' for PS45 to make it smaller.
Convenient storage
A twin pushchair with storage space that is easy to access and convenient will allow you to stay organized if you have more than one baby. Select a model with an ample basket beneath to store all the additional accessories like baby changing mats rain covers, nappy bags. It's also a good idea to add a snack tray and cup holder, so that you aren't bending over behind your child to get food or drinks when they are hungry.
Tandem twin pushchairs with a single seat in the front make great for children with different ages, but they aren't always easy to maneuver through narrow spaces. The CYBEX Gazelle S and Silver Cross Wave provide the most suitable tandem options for twins while the Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double is more affordable and can be used with two infant car seats or bassinets in double mode.
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 can be used in double mode. You can also add the UPPAbaby piggyback board to allow it to be used by three children. In single-seat mode, it comes with plenty of storage space too, as well as an under-seat basket that's big enough for a large shopping bag. It comes with a large canopy to provide incredible protection from the rain or sun and it's also simple to check on your babies by using the clever peekaboo-hoods.
It is comfortable for both babies and toddlers.
The best lightweight double stroller twin pushchairs are designed to keep both children entertained and comfortable on their strolls. Be sure to look out for seats with padding, recline features and adjustable bar for the calf. These features will allow your child to stretch and relax or be seated straight up to watch their environment.
You should also consider twin strollers that have one handlebar that allows you to control the stroller using one hand. This will allow you to navigate through busy shopping streets or make tight turns. Some double buggies come with two handlebars. However, these can be difficult to control and may require both hands to push.
Some twin pushchairs can accommodate different combinations of infant car seats and carrycots so you can alter the stroller as your baby grows. For instance the Peach 7 offers two world-facing seats suitable from birth, a comfortable parent-facing carrycot, and a toddler seat - making it a great choice for siblings of various age.
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 are an excellent option for twins. They offer an elegant appearance compared to side-by-side models. One seat is padded and can recline to a full angle for babies and the other is more upright and suitable for toddlers. Some can be made into a single stroller by removing the seat in the front. They can be difficult to connect to public transport, and they may not be as sturdy as a single pushchair going between kerbs.
Some models can be folded into smaller sizes than others. This is essential if your home storage space is small. The egg2 is an elegant option that can be used as a single or a double. It also has a variety of carrycots and infant car seats so you can adjust it as your twins grow bigger. It's also available in a variety of colours and has a lovely contemporary style.

Begin by vacuuming the seat to remove dirt and grime, as well as crumbs and crumbs in all areas with a flexible nozzle attachment. This will let you reach into every crevice seams, seams and fabric parts like the seat, canopy and the basket.
After the vacuuming has been completed and the vacuuming is complete, follow the manufacturer's instructions for removing fabric seat coverings, pads and liners from the frame of the chassis and washing them on a delicate cycle with a mild detergent appropriate for infants.
