20 Up-And-Comers To Follow In The Twin Pushchair Industry
What to Look For in a Twin Pushchair
If you have two kids or babies with the same age, a twin pushchair could be a great option. They have two seats for your little ones and are typically equipped with comfortable carrycots for infants as well as compatibility with car seats for older toddlers.
Be sure to look for models with easy-to-use push handles and a GIANT storage basket. Accessories such as cup holders and snack trays for parents and children are also helpful.
Tandem
The classic tandem twin pushchair lets both children face each other. This is the preferred choice of some parents who find it less likely to cause sibling fights over who is sitting where. It's also a good option for places like the Zoo, where both children are able to be able to see each their fellow. Tandem buggies can be larger than single buggies, but they also are larger and longer when being pushed.
Some twin buggies start life as single pushchairs and then can be extended to hold two seats or carrycots with the addition of an adapter. This is a great option for families with more than one child. It's not necessary to buy a brand new buggy after your older child is outgrowing it. However, it may not be the best double stroller choice for twins in the early months as they'll need to be the same age and weight.
Another kind of twin buggy is the jogger which can be used in single or double mode and can accommodate two car seats. It has an air-filled tyre and a swivel-forward steering wheel which means it can be used on off-road trails. It is heavier than other options however it offers durability.
The Phil & Ted Sport double jogger can be used with either the seat in the main compartment or with a nifty double kit that attaches to the existing single seat. With one swivel front wheel and all-wheel suspension, it can handle rough terrain better than other joggers we have tested and is compatible with a range of car seats as well.

These models allow you to use two carrycots or a toddler car seat side by side, which is great for siblings.

Multiple configurations
The seating configuration of your twin pushchair may significantly affect its efficiency. Be sure to look for a variety of options so that you can alter the direction of your child's seats based on their mood or the circumstances, as well as continuing to use them as they grow. The Bugaboo Donkey 5 Twin, for instance, is incredibly versatile, with reversible seat and bassinet configurations that let siblings to face each other either with you or the exciting road ahead. The frame's clever design can be extended to accommodate an additional seat. It can be used in either Mono or Double mode, with a variety of accessories that are available for both configurations.
The side-by-side arrangement is a popular choice for parents who are new. One child is seated behind the other. This type of twin buggy offers the advantage of giving both children the same view and is typically narrower than a single pushchair, making it easier to navigate in the public transportation system and in doors. The Cybex Gazelle S Pushchair for instance, comes in over 20 different configurations so you can pick the ideal configuration for your family. it can also accommodate two car seats or carrycots in tandem mode.

You may also find they're a little heavier than a single stroller and you'll need purchase additional accessories like rain covers or sunshades in order to protect your twins.

The storage areas should be easy to access even when the seats are in different positions. The UPPAbaby Vista 2 can carry twins or a toddler and baby and also include a 'PiggyBack' table for older kids (PS120). The Roma Gemini is able to accommodate two newborns with the cocoons included (PS59 each). With the new design, you can put the cocoons facing either way or backwards. It also has a convenient folding design that can be stored between uses.
