Easy to Manoeuvre

Whether you're taking twins out for a stroll, or have a baby and toddler at the same age, a double pushchair pram is a lifesaver in keeping them entertained. Double buggys, or twin prams, as they are sometimes called, come in a variety of configurations to fit all kinds of families. Some are side-by-side, while others feature a single front and the back to accommodate narrow spaces. Some can be converted into single prams when your little ones grow out of them, making them an ideal choice for families with growing children.

They are easier to steer than tandem twin buggies, since the front wheels can be locked to provide extra stability. There's also more storage behind them. They are also smaller than other twin buggies and easier to maneuver through doorways or on public transport. They are generally lighter than other twin prams, so they are more mobile too, although you might encounter difficulties getting up and down kerbs or on rough terrain.

The iCandy Peach, baby essentials which comes in a variety of colours and styles, is a chic twin pushchair that is available with a more streamlined design. It's also a great twin pushchair for infants and newborns, thanks to its cosy newborn cocoons that provide an enclosed, flat space.

Many twin buggies are travel systems with car seats that attach to the frame. This can be useful for traveling with babies and toddlers since you don't have to transfer them from the car seat pram to the pushchair pram, which could be disruptive to them. The UPPAbaby Vista 2 is a good example of twin pushchairs that can be used as a travel system and it even comes with a handy mode that allows parents to be in the same room with their babies.

Tandem twin buggies are made for children of similar ages. They are more likely to have an individual seat for each child. They are less likely to include carrycots for babies less than six months and are generally larger than single buggies. They can be maneuvered, however they are often equipped with an independent seat recline to allow both children to sit up or recline to a snooze position.

Folding is simple

If you're purchasing a double pushchair, then you'll need it to fold. This will make it easy for you to move the buggy around, and also to store it in smaller areas. You can choose from a variety of ways to fold your pushchair. Some models even come with a handy shoulder strap to make it easier for you to carry.

Most twin pushchairs are foldable using just one hand, however it is important to confirm before you buy that yours will do this. Some of the top prams models are able to fold with the seat taken out which makes them smaller. This can be particularly helpful in the case of a lack of storage space.

A twin pushchair that's too large may not be able to pass through standard doors. The larger width of tandem buggies can sometimes be an issue therefore it is important to determine the door's width before you buy. There are slimmer models that are designed to fit through narrower doorways in the event that this is a problem.

It can also be used to carry twins (or a baby and toddler) with the addition of the 'piggyback' board.

It's worth checking if the storage space remains accessible when both seats are used. Certain side-by-side configurations can be a challenge, and the "one above, one below' style of tandem may make access difficult due to child's legs. Look for generous compartments, baskets, and pockets which can store everything from toys and snacks to sun cream and rain cover.

There are models that can be folded with seats removed to make even more compact storage. These are best used at home. You'll want to consider the weight of the buggy, too heavier double buggies tend to be more difficult to maneuver and might struggle to navigate up or down kerbs.

Most twin pushchairs have fixed side-by-side designs, with some that can be able to accommodate two carrycots or seat units (and sometimes a third).
