Easy to Manoeuvre
A twin pushchair is one of the most commonly used baby products, right after the car seat. It will be the baby's place of residence for a long period of time, so it's essential to make it easy to maneuver. Our home testers loved the Roma Gemini for this - it's light, folds compactly and has a great steering. It comes with a lot of extras, and other brands will charge separately.
The Silver Cross Wave is another great option for siblings or twins of different ages as it's designed to accommodate two seats and car seats (it is also able to be used with 2 carrycots in mono mode). The clever frame expands in width when you need to use the double seat, yet keeps a single footprint when in mono mode, making it much easier to navigate narrow spaces than buggies that are side-by-side.
Apart from the appearance and has plenty of extras, our testers found this model stood out for its simplicity of use. It folds easily with a single click and is compatible with all car seat models. It's a little long in double mode, but you can purchase a'sidepack' to make it smaller for PS45.
Convenient storage
If you have more than one child, a twin pushchair from birth with a practical and easily accessible storage area will help you keep everything organised. Choose a model that has a large basket under the seat to store all the extra items like changing mats for babies and a nappy bag. It's also a good idea to incorporate the cup and snack tray to the holder so that you do not have to reach behind your child for food or drinks when they're hungry.
Tandem twin pushchairs that have one seat behind the other, are ideal for children of different age groups, but can be a little more difficult to manoeuvre through narrow spaces than side-by-side models. The CYBEX Gazelle S and Silver Cross Wave offer the best 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 works with two infant car seat or carrycots, and can be used in double mode.

In single-seat mode, it has plenty of storage space too as a large under-seat storage basket that's large enough to fit a large shopping bag. 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.
