Easy to manoeuvre
A twin pushchair is one of the most commonly used baby products, after a car-seat. It will be the baby's primary residence for a long time so it is essential to make it easy to maneuver. Our home-based testers loved the Roma Gemini for this - it's light, folds compactly and has a great steering. It comes with a lot of extras that rival brands charge separately.
Silver Cross Wave is a ideal choice for twins and siblings of different ages because it can be used with two car seats or carrycots (it can also be used in mono mode). Its clever frame expands widthways when you're required to use the stokke double stroller seat, but keeps a single footprint when in mono mode, which makes it easier to navigate narrow passageways than side by side double stroller-by-side buggies.

It has a smart, single-click to fold and it's also compatible with most car seats so you can just take them out and go. It's a little long when it's in double mode, but you can purchase a "sidepack" for PS45 to make it smaller.
Convenient storage
A twin pushchair with a storage space that is easy to access and easy to access will help you stay organised for more than one child. Pick a model that has a large basket underneath for storing all the extra accessories, such as baby changing mats rain covers, nappy bags and baby changing bags. A convenient cup holder and snack tray is also an excellent option, since it helps you avoid reaching behind your children to grab drinks and snacks when they begin to feel thirsty or hungry.
Tandem twin pushchairs that have one seat in the front are ideal for children of varying ages, however they aren't always easy to maneuver around narrow spaces. The CYBEX Gazelle S and Silver Cross Wave are the top tandem options for twins while the Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double is more affordable and can accommodate two infant car seat carriers or bassinets in double mode.
The UPPAbaby Vista 2 stroller is a twin stroller that can be used from birth. It can be used with two infant car seat or carrycots and also in double stroller with car seat mode.

The best double stroller twin pushchairs are designed to keep both children content and comfortable while strolling. Be sure to look for padded seats, recline features and adjustable calf bars. These will give your child the opportunity to relax and stretch out or sit straight and observe their surroundings.
