If your iCandy Peach isn’t shown, you may have an earlier Peach edition (1–4), released between 2009 and 2017. These earlier models require different converter parts. For guidance, refer to our blog post, "How to Convert Your iCandy Peach 1–4 into a Double or Twin," which includes detailed instructions for identifying your model and the parts you’ll need.
Double or Twin mode?
Once you’ve identified your iCandy Peach model, the next step is deciding whether you want to convert it into a double or a twin pushchair.
- Double Mode: Designed for siblings of different ages, this configuration allows you to use one seat and one carrycot or two seats.
- Twin Mode: Ideal for newborn twins, this configuration enables the use of two carrycots or two seat units simultaneously.
Choosing the right setup is key to ensuring the pushchair meets your family’s needs. To simplify this decision, we’ve provided a grid below that outlines the required parts for each configuration.
What do you need to Convert?
To convert your iCandy Peach 5, 6, or 7 into a double or twin pushchair, you’ll need the appropriate Converter Base for your model’s colourway.
The Converter Base includes:
- Seat/carrycot frame
- Canopy
- Converter adaptors
- Rain cover
These parts work seamlessly together, with the adaptors easily attaching to the pushchair frame. Once installed, the adaptors enable a range of configurations, allowing you to use two carrycots, two seat units, or a combination of both.
To complete your conversion:
- For Double Mode, purchase the second seat unit.
- For Twin Mode, purchase the second carrycot fabrics.
With these components, your iCandy Peach will effortlessly adapt to the changing needs of your growing family.

How to Store and Transport Your Pushchair After Conversion
Once your iCandy Peach has been converted into a double or twin pushchair, storing and transporting it efficiently becomes essential. Here are some practical tips to help:
- Folding the Pushchair: The chassis must be folded separately, as the seat units or carrycots need to be removed before folding. This ensures a more compact and manageable size for storage and transport.
- Fitting in Your Car Boot: To maximise space, remove both seats or carrycots and place them separately in the boot. Consider stacking the seat units or placing them upright to free up additional space.
- Protective Covers & Storage Solutions: If storing the pushchair for an extended period, use a protective cover or travel bag to keep it clean and free from dust. Store in a dry place to prevent any damage to fabrics and mechanisms.
Maintenance Tips for Your iCandy Peach 5–7
Keeping your pushchair in top condition ensures longevity and a smooth ride for your little ones. Here’s how to maintain it:
- Cleaning: Regularly wipe down the chassis with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. Fabrics can be spot-cleaned or hand-washed as per the care label instructions.
- Checking for Wear and Tear: Inspect the wheels, suspension, and folding mechanism for signs of wear. Ensure all fixings and adaptors are secure.
- Tyre & Wheel Maintenance: Remove any trapped debris from the wheels and apply lubricant to moving parts if needed.
- Storage Considerations: Avoid leaving the pushchair in damp or extreme temperatures to prevent rusting or fabric deterioration.
By following these steps, you can keep your iCandy Peach running smoothly and make daily outings effortless.
