Choosing a Double pushchair twin (right here on Igmph)

You'll need a double stroller in order to take your twins from one place to B. Our selection includes a variety of twin prams and double pram buggies that come in a variety of configurations to suit your family requirements.

Find a pushchair that folds in one step and is easy to put into your car. You may also prefer a lightweight design, especially if you're tackling busy high streets.

Side-by-Side

These are the most common type of double foldable pushchair, and usually can accommodate two children in a row. They're generally larger than single pushchairs. This makes them less able to maneuver on the footpaths. It can also be difficult to move up and down kerbs when a car seat is attached. The extra width makes them easier to maneuver through doors, and they are more evenly distributed, so it is easier to carry around on your back.

They can be used as twin prams from birth, and many models can be used with a carrycot or 2 car seats. Some models can be converted to a single mode, with a basket beside (like the Cybex Venus).

One of the best examples of this is the Bugaboo Donkey 5 which, in Twin Mode, allows you to place the rear seat and carrycot side-by-side. This creates a totally enclosed space for twins, and is ideal for newborns. The pram also comes with a couple of really neat accessories, such as the newborn cocoons, which can be positioned to face either way (for a twin-facing pram) or facing towards the front (for a normal single). It's not as light as some other options but it is very well thought out.

Lightweight

Cybex is renowned for its unique pushchairs, and the single-to double is no exception. Its clever frame expands widthways to accommodate an additional seat 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 babies. The large shopping basket behind the seat allows it to be used in mono mode for a single child. It has both front and rear suspension, so it can handle bumps and uneven surfaces better. Our reviewers selected this car as their top choice.

Available in a variety stylish colors.

Tandem

If you're planning to have twins you will need a tandem pushchair. This will allow each child to sit and interact with each one another. They are great for trips to the zoo as the children can watch the animals together. They're also perfect for parents who need to keep one eye on their toddler and the other on their child because they can see both of them simultaneously.

Some tandem pushchairs are incredibly adaptable, as they can be converted back to single mode. This is especially useful for families with more than two kids (or only your oldest child does not require a buggy anymore). This means that you won't be left with an empty pushchair that you need to store away, which can be costly.

For instance, the Cybex Venus can be used in both mono and double pram and pushchair mode and has a smart frame that can be expanded to accommodate a second seat. It's not the tiniest pushchair, but it has a large basket that can be placed behind the front seat in double mode, or at the back if in mono mode. The seats can be set to face each other or one can be positioned higher up so it can see over the other and see what they're doing.

Other double tandem pushchairs, such as the Joolz Geo 3, are capable of seating one over the other or side-by-side. They feature a sleek, compact frame that makes them easy to maneuver through doors and aisles of supermarkets, and some models can even be used as a jogging stroller or on rough terrain thanks to a four-wheel suspension and wide rear wheels.

Another advantage of a tandem pushchair is that it can often include two carrycots, or a car seat and a buggy seat. This means you can create a travel system from the beginning and save money on additional purchases. Be aware that tandems are heavier and longer and may be less stable when bumping up the kerbs or going over uneven surfaces. They also require dismantling to fit into cars.
