Buying a Twin Pushchair

Direct4Baby offers a variety of nifty twin and double pushchairs.

Side-by-Side

The children are placed side-byside in a side-by-side double stroller. It can be fitted with two fixed seats. They tend to be smaller and lighter than a single stroller, making it easier to maneuver through doors.

Some seats can be adjusted so that one child can lie flat, while others are designed to fit carrycots. This type of twin is a fantastic choice from birth, and also works well through toddlerhood, and beyond.

This is an innovative alternative that is not only practical, but also fun for children. It is crucial to ensure that any additional accessories are compatible with the model before purchasing.

Tandem
