Choosing a Double pushchair twin - click for source -

If you have twins you'll need a double pushchair in order to get them from A to B. Our range of twin prams includes twin buggies that can be set up in different ways to suit your requirements.

Look for a stroller that can be folded in one step and easily lifted into your car. You might also want a lightweight design that's easy to maneuver and navigate especially if you have busy roads to navigate.

Side-by-Side

They are the most commonly used type of double pushchair, and can typically seat 2 children together. They're generally larger than single pushchairs. This can make them less agile on paths. It can also be difficult to move up and down kerbs when an automobile seat is installed. However the extra width can mean that they're generally easier to navigate through doors and are more evenly distributed making them less burdensome to carry around on your back.

Many models are able to be used as twin prams and will take a carrycot, or two car seats. Some can even be converted to a single mode with a basket alongside (like the Cybex Venus).

One of the best examples of this is the Bugaboo Donkey 5 which, in Twin Mode, allows you to fit the rear seat and a carrycot side-by-side. This creates a fully enclosed space for twins, and is perfect for babies. The pram comes with very cool accessories, such as the newborn cocoons that can be attached either facing towards the front or in any direction (for twin-facing prams). It's not as lightweight stroller as some other options but it's incredibly well designed.

Lightweight

Cybex is renowned for its innovative pushchairs, and the single-to-double isn't an exception. The clever frame can be expanded to accommodate a second seat, and you can use 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 can also be used in an individual mode with only one child thanks to a large shopping basket that sits behind the seat. It comes with front and rear suspensions that allows it to handle bumps and uneven surfaces more easily. A top pick from our reviewers.

Available in a variety of elegant colors.

Tandem

If you are planning to have twins, you'll require a pushchair newborn that is tandem. This will allow each child to sit and see each other. They are ideal for activities such as visiting the zoo as the children will be able to gaze at all the animals together. They're also perfect for parents who have to keep one eye on their toddler and the other eye on their infant, as they can see both of them simultaneously.

Some tandem pushchairs provide ultra flexibility since they can be converted back to single mode. This is especially useful when you're planning to have more than two kids (or just your eldest is no longer a need for a buggy). This will prevent you from having to store a buggy empty which can be costly.

The Cybex Venus, for example is a model that can be used in double or mono mode. The frame can be expanded to accommodate an additional seat. It's not the tiniest pushchair however it does come with 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 placed so that they face one other or higher up to see what each is doing.

Other double tandem cheap pushchairs such as the Joolz Geo 3 can seat one on top of the other or side-by-side. They are sleek and compact frame that makes them easy to navigate through doorways and supermarket aisles Some models can also be used as a jogging stroller or on rough terrain thanks to a four-wheel suspension and large rear wheels.

A tandem pushchair could also be used to carry two carrycots or a car and buggy seat. You can save money by establishing an overall travel system prams system from the beginning and avoiding separate purchases. Be aware that tandems are heavier and longer, and they may be less stable when bumping into kerbs or navigating uneven surfaces. They also need dismantling to fit into cars.
