Which Twin Pushchairs Are Right For Your Family?

If you have twins, or your children are close in age, a double pushchair will help you get them from A to B in safety and quickly. Some of the models in this line such as the iCandy Wave, start life as single buggies but can be converted into double mode as your family grows.

Side-by-side buggies

If you have two kids of similar ages who will be sharing the same twin pushchair then a side-by-side model is likely to suit your needs best. Also called a duo buggy or tandem pushchair, these types of models usually offer different seating options so that you can easily switch from one child to the next, depending on their age and requirements. These models are ideal for twins and siblings that are close in age. They can be seated next to eachother rather than facing eachother, making them feel more included.

Side-by-side buggies are typically smaller than you'd think, and they're a perfect option for those who don't want their new double stroller to look too heavy or unpractical.

A good-sized shopping basket is a must too, and you'll want to make sure that the seats have recline positions and all the features needed to ensure your child's comfort like canopies, footrests and headrests.

Tandem buggies

They also have a protective canopy which can be extended to cover the front of the seat.
