The Apollo Plus Twin features two independent sun canopies / hoods., both are fully detachable. The hoods are a good size and will help to shade your children on sunny days. Both hoods features a handy parent window, which is great for peaking through to check on your little ones. At the back of each hood there is also a useful pocket / pouch which are great for storing things you want to hand, such as your phone, purse and keys.

There is not 1 but 2 shopping baskets on the Apollo plus, each is located beneath each seat unit. The baskets are a good medium size, and big enough to put one changing bag in each basket, or 1 changing bag and 1 bag of shopping.

A twin raincover is included which fits easily over both seat units, this protects both children from any showers or bad weather which may arise. Also included are two matching footmuffs, both footmuff are fleece lined for extra warmth…perfect for cold winter days.

Folding and Unfolding

The Apollo is very easy to fold and folds down like an umbrella style folding stroller. Once folded it is compact and will fit into most car boots, although we do recommend that you measure your boot space before purchasing

Once folded the pushchair is easy to carry, as it features a handy carry handle to make transporting it much easier.

Manoeuvrability

The Apollo plus features 3 ergonomic foam handles, making the buggy comfortable to push with two children on board, you can either have your hands placed on both of the outer handles for maximum control or you can also use the middle handle.

Six wheels in total make the Apollo feel very sturdy and well balanced for transporting two children. The front wheels are all lockable swivel wheels for maximum manoeuvrability. Simply lock the front wheels into place when encountering rougher terrain such as cobbles, gravel, sand or grass. Switch the wheels back to swivel mode for easy steering over smooth surfaces.
