From Dark Warriors Wiki
Buying a Twin Pushchair From Birth
The stylish and sleek pushchair can be converted to a twin in just one click. When it's twin, the frame is a bit smaller, but has space for a basket of groceries alongside each seat/carrycot. It can take two car seats or carrycots to accommodate siblings of various ages.
The Venus comes with a new Cocoon which creates a lie-flat and world-facing environment for infants. The UPPAbaby team has even tweaked the design to let you attach two cocoons together.
Easy to maneuver
A twin pushchair is among the most popular baby products, right after a car-seat. It will be the baby's primary residence for a long period of time, so it’s important to make it easy to move. The Roma Gemini was a favorite of our home testers because it's lightweight twin buggy, folds small and has a great steering. It also comes with plenty of extras that rival brands offer separately, such as an upholstered seat liner that is fleecey.
The Silver Cross Wave is another ideal choice for twins or siblings of different ages as it's designed to fit 2 seats and car seats (it is also able to be used with two carrycots in mono mode). Its clever frame expands in size when you require the double pram stroller seat, but it has a single and double stroller footprint in mono mode, making it easier to navigate narrow passageways.
Our testers loved the look of this pushchair and its many extras. But it was also simple to use. It's easy to fold with just a click and is compatible with the majority of car seat models. It's a little long in double mode, however you can buy a "sidepack" to reduce it for PS45.
Convenient storage
If you have more than one child, a twin pushchair from birth with a handy and easily accessible storage space can help you keep things well-organized. Pick a model that comes with a large basket under the seat to store all of the additional accessories like changing mats for babies and a nappy bag. It is also a good idea to include the cup and snack tray to the holder so that you do not have to reach behind your child to get a snack or drink when they are hungry.
Tandem twin pushchairs with a single seat in the front make great for children with different ages, but they can be more difficult to maneuver through tight spaces. The CYBEX Gazelle S or Silver Cross Wave are the top tandem alternatives for twins. However the Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double offers an affordable alternative and can accommodate two infant car seats carriers or bassinets.
The UPPAbaby Vista 2 stroller is a twin stroller that can be used from birth. It works with two infant car seats or carrycots, and can be used in double tandem pushchair mode. It can be paired with the UPPAbaby PiggyBack Board make it suitable for three children. It's a great size with plenty of storage space even in single-seat mode. There's also an under-seat basket big enough to accommodate an enormous shopping cart. It comes with a huge canopy that offers great protection from the rain or sun. The clever peekaboo hoods make it easy to keep an eye on your baby.
It is comfortable for both babies and toddlers.
The best twin pushchairs from birth are designed to ensure both children are at ease during strolls. Find adjustable calf bars with padded seats, as well as recline features. They will allow your child to relax and stretch out or sit up straight to observe their surroundings.
It is also recommended to look for twin prams with one handlebar, which makes it easier to steer the stroller using one hand. This will allow you to navigate busy shopping streets and navigate tight turns. Some double buggies have two handlebars, but these can be difficult to control and may require that you use both hands to push.
Some twin pushchairs are able to accommodate various combinations of carrycots and infant car seats, so you can modify to your baby's needs as they grow. For example the Peach 7 offers two world-facing seats that are suitable from birth, a cosy parent-facing carrycot as well as a toddler seat - making it the perfect option for siblings of different ages.
Other options include the UPPAbaby Vista 2 which 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 can be compactly folded for transport.
Tandem buggies provide more sleek appearance than side-byside buggies and are a great choice for twins. They typically have one cushioned seat that can recline fully and is suitable for infants and the other has a more upright posture and can be used by toddlers. Some can be made into one stroller by removing the seat in the front. They can be tricky to attach to public transport and may not be as sturdy as a single pushchair when travelling between kerbs.
Some models are able to fold up smaller than others, which can be a good thing if you're low in storage space at home. Egg2 is a beautiful choice that can be used as one or two people. It also comes with a variety of carrycots and infant car seats, so you can modify it as your twins get larger. It's also available in a range of colours and has an elegant contemporary design.
Easy to clean
Regular maintenance and cleaning will keep your twin pushchair in great condition for the years to come. This will prevent issues such as staining, odours, and mould growth, and extend the life of your pushchair.
Begin by vacuuming your pushchair with a flexible nozzle attachment to eliminate crumbs, dirt and grime from all surfaces. This will help reach into all crevices and seams of the fabric parts, including the seat, canopy and basket.
After vacuuming, take off the fabric seat covers, pads, and liners and wash them in the gentle cycle with mild detergent suitable for babies. To avoid water damage and corrosion ensure that all parts are dry prior to reassembling.
To eliminate any odours that have become hardened or sticky messes, it is recommended to regularly clean the non-fabric components of your twin stroller. This includes the hinges, wheels and folding components. If needed, apply silicone-based grease according to the recommendations by the manufacturer to ensure smooth and consistent movement of all components. Regular checks of your twin pushchair will reveal any signs of wear and tear, and allow you to repair them as soon as possible to reduce the risk of future issues.
