The Venus also comes with a newborn baby cocoon to create a lying-flat environment and parent or world-facing options for infants. The UPPAbaby brand has also redesigned the design to allow you to attach two cocoons side by side.

Easy to Manoeuvre

One of the most frequently used baby products is a car seat twin pushchairs will be the baby's primary residence for quite some time so it's crucial that it's easy to manoeuvre. Our home testers loved the Roma Gemini for this - it's best lightweight double stroller, folds up compactly and has a great steering. It also comes with loads of accessories that rival brands don't sell separately, like the seat liner, which is padded and fleecey.

The Silver Cross Wave is another great option for twins or siblings of different ages as it's designed to accommodate two seats and car seats (it can even be used with 2 carrycots in mono mode). Its clever frame expands widthways when you're using the double seat, yet it remains a single footprint in mono mode, making it easier to navigate narrow passageways than side-by-side buggies.

Our test subjects loved the design of this stroller and its many extras. It was simple to use. It has a smart fold that is a single-click and it's compatible with all car seats, so you can simply take them out and go. It's a bit long when in double mode but you can buy a "sidepack" for PS45 to reduce it to a smaller size.

Convenient storage

A twin pushchair with a storage area that is easily accessible and convenient will help you stay organised when you have more than one baby. Pick a model that has an ample basket beneath to store all the other accessories, such as baby changing mats rain covers, nappy bags. A handy cup holder and snack tray is also an excellent addition, as it saves you reaching behind your children to grab drinks and snacks when they get thirsty or hungry.

Tandem twin pushchairs, which have one seat behind the other, are perfect for children of different age, but they can be a bit more difficult to manoeuvre through small spaces than side-by-side models. The CYBEX Gazelle S and Silver Cross Wave provide the most suitable tandem options for twins, while the Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double is more budget-friendly and can take two infant car seats or bassinets in double mode.

The UPPAbaby Vista 2 stroller is a twin stroller that can be used from birth. It can be used with two infant car seats or carrycots and in double buggy travel system (discover here) mode. You can also add the UPPAbaby PiggyBack Board allow it to be used by three children. In single-seat configuration, it offers plenty of storage space and an under-seat basket that's large enough to fit a large shopping bag. It comes with a huge canopy that offers excellent protection from the sun or rain. The clever peekaboo hoods make it easy to keep your baby's attention.

Baby is a comfortable fit for both

The most effective twin pushchairs are designed to keep both children content and comfortable during their strolls. Look out for padded seats, recline features and adjustable calf bars. These will give your child the chance to stretch out and relax, or sit up straight to observe their surroundings.

It is also recommended to look for twin strollers that have one handlebar that allows you to control the stroller one-handed. This will allow you to navigate busy shopping streets and negotiate tight turns. Some double buggies have two handlebars, but this may be difficult to control and may require both hands for pushing.

Some twin pushchairs can be used with different combinations of infant car seats and carrycots, so you can alter the stroller as your baby grows. For instance the Peach 7 offers two world-facing seats that can be used from birth, a comfortable parent-facing carrycot as well as a toddler seat - making it an ideal choice for siblings of various age.

The UPPAbaby PiggyBack Board can be connected to the UPPAbaby vista 2 for use with twins, toddlers and a baby or even three children. It is simple to fold and folds down compactly.

Tandem buggies are another good option for twins. They offer a more streamlined appearance than side-by-side models. One seat is cushioned and can recline to a full angle for newborns while the other is more upright and suitable for toddlers. Some of them can be converted to a single pushchair simply by removing the front seat. They can be tricky to connect to public transport and may not be as sturdy as a single pushchair moving up and down kerbs.

Some models fold up smaller than others. This is crucial when your storage space in your home is small. The egg2 is a stylish option that can be used as either a single and double stroller or double. It also comes with a variety of carrycots and infant car seats so you can adjust it as your twins get larger. It is available in many colors and features a stylish contemporary design.

Start by vacuuming your pushchair with a flexible nozzle attachment to get rid of crumbs, dirt, and grime from all areas. This will let you reach into every crevice seams, seams and fabric parts such as the seat canopy, and basket.
