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

Double pushchairs are great for families with twins or children of similar ages. Select from tandem models or side-by-side designs like the Mountain Buggy Duet V3 which is small enough to fit standard doorways.

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

Side by Side

The side-by-side buggy is the classic choice for families with twins or siblings of different ages. These typically offer 2 fixed seats with a single canopy and are generally wider than an inline buggy, which gives each child the same view. They're easy to move, and some even have front and rear suspensions to allow for better handling over bumps or over the kerb when turning.

While they can cost more than other types of double buggies, they are likely to be more resale-worthy when you purchase an established brand. They're also ideal for jogging and can withstand rough terrain, while the seats offer plenty of space for your children to sit comfortably. Buggies are available in a variety of colours and styles to fit your family's tastes.

Some models come with additional accessories to help keep your baby comfortable. These include baby blankets and seats, liners, and head supports. They could also come with pockets to store snacks and toys. Parents can find a buggy that has a console that keeps things close to hand.

The 2023 version of the popular buggy features a fresh design and a larger sun canopy and fresh logos. It's a stylish option for parents who value their image and is compatible with iCandy child car seats. It's also easy to assemble, although Kerry discovered that it took quite a while to get all the components out of the boxes. However, the boxing was clever and well-labeled, which made it easier to know what to expect from each component.

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

The Vista v2 from UPPAbaby is another top choice for double strollers. It's ideal for parents who are busy. It's super easy to maneuver in tight spaces and handles the tough terrain easily. It comes with a huge shopping basket, independent recline for both seats, and a cushioned 5-point harness to keep your children safe.

Tandem

This clever frame can be expanded in width, allowing the possibility of a second seat being added without the need for compromise in space. It's a great choice for twins from birth and can accommodate 2 carrycots or car seats also, making it a fantastic travel system for road trips. It's a bit larger and heavier than some of its rivals, but it offers a lot of storage space including a large shopping basket. The iCandy Peach has a sleek, stylish design that is loved by parents who are a bit glam. Its reclining main seat also can be adjusted into four different positions, and will increase in size with your children's weight to 25kg. Adding an additional seat is simple thanks to the quick-release Velcro fastenings, and this model can be used in tandem mode, with one child seated on the other. This is a great choice if you want to avoid disturbing your sleepy newborn.

This configuration places the seats one in front of another, making it harder for toddlers and their parents to get distracted while out and out and about. This type of pushchair features padding that allows the seat to fully recline and is suitable for infants. Many models will have a higher, more upright seat in the back for older children, and it's typically possible to arrange them to be facing each other or world facing depending on the design of the buggy. With a tandem pushchair, it's easier to fit through narrow doors, but it might be a challenge to navigate stairs and kerbs with two children.

A fantastic choice for special needs families This multi-functional pushchair is a nifty solution for disabled children who benefit from having a younger sibling to play with and encourage. It's not expensive, but it's made to last. There's also plenty of space for all your requirements. It comes with a range of accessories that allow you to personalize the buggy to suit your family, like rain covers and liners.

Lightweight

The best double pushchairs that are lightweight are agile and compact, making them easy to use. They're typically made of a sturdy aluminium frame, but some also have air-filled wheels to help them move over rough surfaces. Some models come with an easy fold that can be folded with one hand and shoulder straps that make them more convenient to carry. Find additional accessories like a sunshade, rain cover, and foot muff.

The Cybex Mios is a lightweight double stroller that has a low price. It straddles two categories as both a full-functioning travel system as well as a light buggy that is suitable from birth, with the addition of a carrycot. It features the side-by-side design and the two seats recline independently. This offers the perfect position for infants and toddlers. It has a generous UPF 50+ canopy, with windows that can be seen through and the toddler seat is fully padded with foot and leg rests that can be adjusted.

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

When comparing double jogging stroller pushchairs, consider the weight of each frame, seat and suspension. The heavier the buggy is and the heavier it is, the more difficult it will be to push. This is especially true on uneven surfaces. Check the dimensions of the folding and whether or not you can remove the seats, which makes it more compact. Check for features like an easy one-handed fold which home tester Kirstie described as "genius" and a convenient strap to sling over your shoulders.

Alternatively, you can choose a tandem double pram stroller pushchair, which places children in a row behind one another. It's not as maneuverable as a side-byside, but it's still a great option for families with multiple children and is suitable for older toddlers. There are tandems with reclining seats that allow children to sit up or lie down based on their mood and requirements.

Confortable

If you're the parent of twins or two siblings close in age, having the best double pushchair will make outings much easier. There are a variety of comfy options on the market. There are plenty of options for families, no matter if you're seeking a side by side model that can hold the carrycot as well as a seat or a tandem model with seats in the front and back that can be swapped.

Look for seats that have various reclining positions as well as adjustable calfrests. They are usually controlled by single-handed buttons that are located at the rear of the seat. (Though in our tests, this could be a little fiddly for small-handed parents). Some of the top double strollers also have an enormous UPF50+ sun canopy, magnetic peekaboo windows, and a useful hood extension that shields your child from harmful UV radiation.

Convertible Doubles

You can save money by investing in a pushchair that converts from single mode to dual as your child develops. The egg2, as an example, is a fashionable option that can be used from birth using the baby or toddler carrier and even offers a RumbleSeat as an additional feature for older siblings. Its reclining seats and large comfortable carrycots are well-received by testers at home who love the way it can expand with your family.

If you're looking for a budget-friendly option that will last through toddlerhood and beyond, the iCandy Venus is a great option. It includes a seat and footmuff, but can also be used with the brand's newborn cocoons (available separately at PS59 each) to transform it into a twin pram that is suitable for twins or toddlers. Our labs liked how easy it was to switch between the different configurations. They also found the instructions to be easy and simple however it might require some time.

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