Buying a Twin Buggy

Whether you're taking twins or two children who are similar in age, this selection of double prams and buggies makes it easy to move your kids from A to B.

Comfort

If you're thinking of taking twins on adventures you'll need a twin stroller that can provide plenty of comfort. You can choose a seat that has adjustable calfrests to ensure your baby is comfy, as well as an extended sun canopy and a large storage basket. Many manufacturers provide extras such as cup holders or rain covers so that you have everything you require when you go on family trips.

Another important factor to consider is the width of your buggy. There are some twins that are slimmer that can be used through doors that are standard, but you'll have to measure your child and talk with the manufacturer prior to purchasing.

Safety

The most effective twin buggies are durable and all-terrain with suspensions that are able to be used on gravel, grass paths and kerbs.

Look for features like an auto-stop brake that stops the buggy when you release the handlebar, so you can stop it before it flies away.

It's also an excellent idea to test the recline of your seat to ensure that your kids are comfortable during long jogging or walking.

Side-by-side models are perfect for siblings who are close in age as they allow both to sit together to communicate and chat during strolls. This type of twin buggy can be more compact than other types that makes them more convenient to manoeuvre and fit through doors. They could be heavier, have a bigger footprint and feel less stable when bumping kerbs.

Tandem buggys are more likely to be double travel systems models, which allow you to connect two carseats or carrycots at the same time. Certain models can be adapted to accommodate two identical baby car seats in rear-facing positions. They may be smaller and longer than twin buggies that sit side-by-side, however they can also be narrower and longer than single buggies.

Convenience

If your little ones want to take their favourite dolls or teddies out on a stroll with them, you can easily do so by using a twin buggy. There are many models with seats that let two children sit together to play together. Some even have an adjustable basket that can be folded to store everything.

Design

The majority of twin buggies are available in tandem or side-by-side models, which allow children to sit either next to one or behind. Side-by-side models are generally narrower and easier to manoeuvre, and they can work for kids or babies with different age groups. Tandems are larger and may not fit into smaller car boots, however they offer the advantage of children being able to interact with one another.

Many twin buggies have a variety of features that parents will love. Look for adjustable five-point safety harnesses with multiple recline options for seats and a huge front canopy that can be extended with a peek-aboo hood. Some models also feature a tray for parents with cup holders, a removable changing mat and an under-seat bin for storage.

The correct size and type of wheel is also important for your twin buggy. Look for a double buggy that has all-terrain wheels that can easily negotiate mud, gravel and uneven surfaces. For even more control, opt for a buggy with suspension systems to smooth bumps on the road.

If you're planning on using your twin buggy for long walks, consider an option with a large cargo bag. You can carry more than your two children and keep track of all their items. Consider adding sun visors, rain cover and shopping trays to your bag.
