The Top Reasons People Succeed In The Twin Pushchair Industry

What to Look For in a Twin Pushchair

A twin pushchair is the perfect option for families with two babies or children with similar ages. They have two places to carry your children and are usually equipped with comfy carrycots or chairs for newborns, and car seat compatibility for older toddlers.

Find models that have easy-to-use push handles and a GIANT storage basket. Accessories like cups and snack trays for parents and kids are also helpful.

Tandem

The classic tandem twin pushchair is side-by-side and allows the children to look at each their respective faces. Some parents prefer this style because it's less likely to cause siblings to fight over the seat they prefer. It also works well when visiting places such as the zoo where both kids can see each other easily. Tandems are generally more spacious than single buggy however they tend to be wider and can feel long when they are pushed.

Some twin buggies are designed as a single pushchair, but can be expanded to accommodate two seats or carrycots with an adapter. This is a great solution for families with more than one child. It's not necessary to purchase a new buggy once your older child has outgrown it. It's not the most suitable option for twins in the beginning stages, since they will need to be of a similar weight and age.

The jogger is another type of twin buggy that can be used as a single or lightweight double buggy buggy, and can hold two car seats.

These models allow you to use two carrycots or a car seat for toddlers side-by-side, which is great for siblings.
