8 Tips To Increase Your Pushchair Game
Choosing a Double Pushchair Twin
You'll need a double babiie stroller to transport your twins from A to B. Our range of twin prams includes twin buggies that can be configured in a variety of ways to meet your requirements.
Find a pushchair cheap that folds in one step and is easy to lift into your car. You could also opt for an ultra-lightweight design, particularly in high traffic streets.
Side-by-Side
This is the most common double pushchair. It usually seats two children side by side. They tend to be wider than single pushchairs. This means they are less agile on footpaths and can be a little tricky to navigate through kerbs with a car seat attached. However, the extra width means that they're often a lot easier to navigate through doors and are more evenly distributed making them more comfortable to carry around on your back.
They can be used as twin prams from birth, and many models can accommodate a carrycot or two car seats. Some can even convert into one-mode with the basket (like the Cybex Venus).
One of the best examples of this is the Bugaboo Donkey 5 which, in Twin Mode, allows you to put the rear seat and a carrycot side by side. This creates a completely enclosed space for twins, and is perfect for babies. This pram also comes with a couple of really cool accessories, including the newborn cocoons which can be attached to face either direction (for twin-facing prams) or facing towards the front (for a normal single). It's not as light as other models, but it's really cleverly constructed.
Lightweight
Cybex is known for its unique pushchairs, and the single-to-double isn't an exception. Its innovative frame expands widthways to accommodate two seats and can be used it as a twin from birth, thanks to the addition of two newborn cocoons (PS59 each) which create enclosed lie-flat spaces for infants. It is also possible to use it as an individual mode with only one child due to a large shopping basket that sits behind the seat. It also has a rear and front suspensions to take on bumps and uneven surfaces a little more easily. Our reviewers selected this car as their top pick.
Available in a variety stylish colors.
Tandem
If you're planning to have twins, you should consider a tandem pushchair that allows the children to be seated close to each other and see each other. These are great for things like visiting the zoo, because the kids will be able to look at all the animals together. They're also ideal for parents who need to keep an eye on their toddler and the other on their child, as they can see both at the same time.
Some tandem pushchairs provide ultra flexibility since they can be converted back to single mode. This is especially useful if you're planning to have more than two kids (or only your oldest doesn't need a buggy anymore). This means you won't be left with an empty pushchair that you need to store away which can be expensive.
The Cybex Venus, for example is a model that can be used in double or mono mode. Its frame expands to accommodate an additional seat. It's not the lightest pushchair but it has a large basket that can be placed behind the front seat when in double mode, or at the rear when in mono mode. The seats can be placed in a way that they face each opposite or higher up to see what the other is doing.
Other double tandem pushchairs like the Joolz Geo 3 can seat one on top of the other or side-by-side. They feature a sleek, compact frame that makes them easy to maneuver through doorways and aisles in supermarkets Some models can be used as a jogging babiie stroller on rough terrain, thanks to a four-wheel suspension as well as wide rear wheels.
A tandem pushchair can be used to carry two carrycots or a car and buggy seat. You can save money by creating an overall travel system from the beginning and avoiding separate purchases. Be aware that tandems are heavier and longer, and can appear less stable when you bump into kerbs and going over uneven surfaces. These pushchairs must also be dismantled to fit in cars.
