Buying a Double Pushchair For Twins Or Two Siblings Close in Age?

Double pushchairs are ideal for families with twins or children with similar ages. Choose between tandem models or side-by-side configurations like the Mountain Buggy Duet V3 which is small enough to fit standard doors.

Many models also offer recliners that lie flat and are compatible with infant car seats. Some can even convert to single mode, as with the egg2 Pushchair which is appreciated for its style and versatility.

Side by Side

The side-by-side buggy is a popular option for families with twins or siblings of different age. These typically offer 2 fixed seats with a single canopy and they're usually wider than an inline buggy to give both children the same view. They are easy to maneuver, and some even have front and back suspensions for better control when traversing kerbs or bumps.

Although they may cost more than other double buggies but they tend to have a higher resale value when you purchase a well-known brand. These buggies are also great for jogging and take on any terrain. The seats provide plenty of space for your kids to relax comfortably. Buggies come in a range of colors and styles to suit your family's tastes.

Some models come with additional accessories to help keep your baby in a comfortable position. These can include baby blankets and liners, seat cushions, and head supports. They could also come with pockets to store snacks and toys. Parents can get a buggy that has an area for keeping their important items close by.

It's easy to put together although Kerry discovered that it took a long time to take the pieces out of their boxes. However, the packaging was clever and well-labeled which made it easy to know what to expect out of each part.

It's heavier than other double buggies but still fairly light for an inline model. It is also very versatile and can be used with one or two infant car seat. It can be converted from a single seat to an entire tandem in just a single click.

Tandem

This clever frame expands in width, allowing for an additional seat to be added without compromising space. It's an excellent choice for twins who are born and can take 2 car seats or carrycots as well, making it a fantastic travel system for road trips. It's a bit heavier than its competitors and can seem a bit bulky when used in double mode but it's got plenty of storage, including a spacious shopping basket. The iCandy Peach is a favourite among parents who are obsessed with their image and has an extremely stylish, sleek design. Its main seat can be adjusted to four different positions and can increase in size with your child's weight to 25kg. The addition of a second seat is simple thanks to the quick-release Velcro fasteners. This model can be used in tandem mode, with one child seated on top of the other. It's an excellent option if you have sleepy newborns who you don't want to disrupt their sleep.

This arrangement places the seats one on top of the other, making it harder for toddlers and their parents to be distracted while out and about. This type of pushchair typically features a padded seat that can recline fully and is suitable for newborns. Some models come with an elevated and more upright seat for older children. In accordance with the model it is possible to set them facing each other or to the world. With a tandem pushchair, it's easier to fit through doorways that are narrow, however it might be difficult to navigate stairs and kerbs with two children.

A fantastic choice for special needs families, this versatile pushchair is a nifty solution for children with disabilities who benefit from having another child to play with and encourage. It's not cheap, but it's built to last. There's also plenty of storage for all your requirements. It comes with a variety of accessories that will allow you to customise the buggy to fit your family, like rain covers and liner.

Lightweight

The best lightweight double pushchairs are nimble compact and simple to use. Some come with air-filled tires that assist them in gliding over rough surfaces. Some models feature one-handed folds and shoulder straps that make them more convenient to carry. Look for additional extras like a sunshade rain cover and foot muff.

If you're looking for a light double buggy that has a reasonable price, then the Cybex Mios is worth considering. It's a traveling system that can be used as a lightweight stroller as well as a functional travel system. A carrycot can be added to allow it to be suitable for use from the time of birth. It features an aesthetically pleasing side-by-side design, and both seats recline separately. This allows for the ideal positioning for infants and toddlers. It features a large UPF 50+ canopy, peekaboo windows, and a toddler seat that's fully cushioned and adjustable.

UPPAbaby Vista 2 is another top contender. It can be used to carry twins or a baby and a toddler. It is compatible with a variety of car seats. It's a stylish and sleek frame, with large wheels at the back that can handle rough terrain. It's also ideal for running. The double mode can make it a bit long, and there is no storage underneath the seat.

When comparing different double pushchairs, consider the weight of the frame, seat and suspension. The heavier the buggy is heavier, the more difficult it will be to push. This is especially true on uneven surfaces. Then check the folding dimensions and whether or not it's possible to remove the seats, making it more compact double stroller. Check for features such as a one-handed folding mechanism, which Kirstie was a home-based tester at the time, described as "genius", or a strap that can be slung over your shoulder.

You can also opt for a tandem double stroller which places the children one behind the other. It is not as maneuverable, but still a great option for families with multiple children. It might be more suitable for older toddlers. Certain tandems come with reclining seats that let children lay down or sit up depending on their mood.

Confortable

The right double pushchair can simplify your travels no matter if you have twins or two children with similar age. There's a huge variety of comfortable choices on the market. There are plenty of options for families, no matter if you're seeking a side by side model that can hold both a carrycot seat and a seat or a tandem model with seats in the front and back that can be swapped.

Make sure you choose a seat with several recline positions as well as adjustable calfrests. Often, these will be operated with one-handed buttons that are accessible from the back of the seat (though in our tests it can be a little fiddly for parents with small hands). Some of the top double pushchairs also come with an enormous UPF 50+ sun canopy, with windows that are magnetic and an easy-to-use hood extender that can protect your children from harmful UV radiation.

Convertible Doubles

One way to save money is to invest in a convertible pushchair that can convert from single mode to double mode as your children develop. The egg2, for example, is a chic option that can be used right from birth using the baby or toddler carrier and even comes with an RumbleSeat second add-on for older siblings. The reclining seats as well as the spacious carrycots were especially well-loved by home testers who loved the way it can grow with your family.

If you're looking for a low-cost option that will last to toddlerhood and beyond the iCandy Venus is a great option. It includes a footmuff as well as a seat, but it can also be converted into a twin-sized stroller by using the brand's new Cocoons (available at a price of PS59 per piece). Our labs loved how simple it is to switch between configurations and found the directions clear and easy to follow - even though it can take some practice to get it all out of the box.

Some double pushchairs only allow you to sit your children side-by-side and generally face the world, but there are some exceptions such as the Bugaboo Donkey and Mountain Buggy Duet that can be set up for both front and parent facing seating (though this can increase the overall width of the chassis). Kerb popping is typically easier with a tandem but getting through narrow doors and shopping aisles can prove difficult at times.
