How long can you use a double pushchair?
Short answer: Typically for twins or siblings close in age. Always go by the age, weight and development limits in the instructions for your model.
Product limits vary, so check the instructions and the product page.
- Side-by-side models are often wider, so measure doorways. Tandems are narrower but longer.
- Check which seats can take a carrycot or car seat.
- Check the folded size and weight.
What the guidance says
- Never put twins together in a Moses basket or small cot. Before they can roll, move them into their own cots.
