Pushchair Tips That Can Change Your Life

Choosing a Double Pushchair Twin

You need a double stroller in order to take your twins from A to B. Our range comprises of twin prams pushchairs as well as double buggies in various configurations to meet your family's needs.

Look for a stroller that can be folded in just one step and then easily tucked away into your boot. You might also want lightweight designs that are easy to maneuver and navigate especially if you have busy high streets to navigate.

Side-by-Side

This is the most popular double pushchair. It usually seats two children side-by-side. They are usually bigger than single pushchairs. This makes them less agile on the footpaths. It can also be difficult to navigate up and down kerbs when a car seat is attached. The extra size allows them to move more easily through doors, and they are more evenly distributed so that it is less burdensome for you to carry them on your back.

They can be used as twin prams from birth and many models can accommodate a carrycot and 2 car seats. Some models can be converted into one mode with a basket to the side (like the Cybex Venus).

One of the most impressive examples of this is the Bugaboo Donkey 5 which, in Twin Mode, allows you to put the rear seat and carrycot side-by-side. This creates a fully enclosed space for twins and is perfect for babies. The pram stores near me also comes with a number of really neat accessories, including the newborn cocoons which can be put on face either direction (for a twin-facing foldable pram) or facing inwards (for a normal single). It's not as lightweight as some other options but it's incredibly well constructed.

Lightweight

Cybex is known for its ingenuity and this pushchair converts to a single is no different. The frame can be extended to accommodate another seat. You can use the pushchair as a twin from birth by adding two cocoons for newborns that cost PS59 each. These cocoons create lie-flat areas that are enclosed. It is also possible to use it as an individual mode with only one child, thanks to a large shopping basket that sits behind the seat. It also comes with rear and front suspensions that can handle bumps and uneven surfaces more easily. A top pick from our reviewers.

Available in a variety of stylish colors.

Tandem

If you're planning to have twins, you should consider a pushchair that can allow children to sit together and look at each one another. They are ideal for trips to the zoo as the children can watch the animals together. They're also ideal for parents who need to keep one eye on their toddler and the other eye on their infant, as they can see both at the same time.

Some tandem pushchairs offer extreme flexibility since they can be converted back to single mode. This is particularly beneficial when you are planning to have more children than two (or if your eldest child isn't a need for the buggy anymore). It means you won't have an empty pushchair to put away and can be expensive.

For example, the Cybex Venus can be used in mono or double mode and has a clever frame that expands widthways to allow for an additional seat. This isn't the heaviest of pushchairs, but it does come with an enormous shopping basket which is located behind the front seat when in double mode (and in the back of the seat when it's mono mode). The seats can be placed to face each other, or one can be set higher, so that it can look over the other and observe what they are doing.

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

A tandem pushchair could also be used to carry two carrycots, or a car and buggy seat. This allows you to build a travel system prams system right from the outset and save money on additional purchases. Remember that tandems are heavier and longer, and they may be less stable when bumping up kerbs and going over uneven surfaces. They also tend to need dismantling in order to fit into cars.
