The Venus comes with a baby Cocoon that provides a lie-flat, world-facing environment for infants. UPPAbaby have even rejigged the design to allow you to attach two cocoons together.
Easy to Manoeuvre
One of the most frequently used baby products after a car seat A twin pushchair will be the baby's primary residence for a long time, so it's crucial that it's simple to maneuver. Our test subjects loved the Roma Gemini for this - it's light, folds compactly and has a great steering. It comes with a lot of extras that other brands will charge separately.
The Silver Cross Wave is another ideal choice for twins or siblings of different ages as it's designed to accommodate 2 seats and car seats (it can even be used with two carrycots in mono mode). The frame's clever design expands in width when you need the double seat but maintains one footprint in mono mode which makes it easier for you to navigate narrow passageways.
Aside from the appearance and has plenty of extras, our testers found this model stood out due to its ease of use. It folds easily with just a click and is compatible with the majority of car seat models. It's a little long when in double mode, but you can purchase a "sidepack" for PS45 to make it more compact.
Convenient storage
A twin pushchair with a storage area that is easy to access and convenient can help you stay organized for more than one child. Choose a model with a large basket underneath for storing all the extra accessories, such as baby changing mats rain covers, nappy bags. It's also a great idea to add an eating tray and a cup holder, so you aren't bending over behind your child for drinks or snacks when they are hungry.
Tandem twin pushchairs with one seat in the front make great for siblings with different ages, but they can be more difficult to maneuver through narrow spaces. The CYBEX Gazelle S and Silver Cross Wave offer the best tandem options for twins while the Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double is more affordable and can accommodate two infant car seats or bassinets in double mode.
The UPPAbaby Vista 2 stroller is a twin stroller that is able to be used from birth. It works with two infant car seat or carrycots and also in double mode. You can add the UPPAbaby PiggyBack Board to make it work for three children. It's got plenty of storage space even in single-seat mode. There's also an under-seat basket that can accommodate a large shopping cart. It features a large canopy that provides excellent protection from rain or sun. The clever peekaboo hoods allow you to keep an eye on your baby.

The most effective twin pushchairs are designed to keep both children content and comfortable on their strolls. Be sure to look out for seats with padding with recline features, as well as adjustable calf bars. These features allow your child to stretch and relax or be seated straight up to watch their environment.
It is also recommended to look for twin strollers that have one handlebar that allows you to control the stroller using one hand. This will make it easier to navigate busy shopping streets and make tight turns. Double buggies may have two handlebars, but these aren't always easy to control and could require that you use both hands to push.
Some twin pushchairs can be used with different combinations of infant car seats and carrycots so you can adapt the stroller as your child grows. For instance the Peach 7 offers two world-facing seats suitable from birth, a cosy parent-facing carrycot as well as an infant seat, making it an ideal option for siblings of different age.
Other alternatives include the UPPAbaby Vista 2 that can be used with twins or a toddler and baby or even three kids by affixing the UPPAbaby PiggyBack board. It features a slim frame that allows it to be used in double mode and is folded compactly for transport.
Tandem buggies are another good option for twins. They offer an elegant appearance compared to side-by-side models. One seat is cushioned and reclines to a full-angle for babies and the other is more upright and suitable for toddlers. Some can be converted into a single pushchair by taking off the front seat. They can be difficult to attach to public transport and may not be as sturdy as a single pushchair when going up and down kerbs.
Certain models can fold down smaller than others. This is important for those whose storage space is limited. The egg2 is an elegant choice that can be used for a single or a double. It also has a variety of carrycots and infant car seats so you can adjust it as your twins get larger. It is available in many colors and features a stylish contemporary design.

Regular maintenance and cleaning will keep your twin pushchair in good condition for many long time to come. This will help prevent issues such as staining, odours, and mould growth. It can also prolong the life of your child's pushchair.
Begin by vacuuming double to single buggy to get rid of dirt and grime, as well as crumbs and crumbs in all areas with a flexible nozzle attachment. This will help get into the crevices and seams of fabric components, including the canopy, seat and basket.
After the vacuuming has been completed, follow the manufacturer's guidelines to remove the seat covers pads, liners and pads off the frame of the chassis, and then cleaning them on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent suitable for babies.
