Stability

A double tandem pushchair is perfect for families with twins or children of similar age. It makes travelling with two children more comfortable and less stressful.

The CYBEX Gazelle is a fantastic option for transporting children of the same age. However they can be a challenge to maneuver around narrow entrances and shopping aisles. In this instance it is best to go with a stadium-style model, like the Bugaboo Donkey or Mountain Buggy Duet which allows children to face either one or the other based on the configuration.

Tandem models that place one behind the other are more manageable than side-by-side pushchairs. However, they are still not as sturdy as single strollers or car seats. They can be difficult to get up from curbs, and they may not have as much storage space than a side-by-side pushchair.

You should test the Double Buggy With Car Seat with both seats in place as that is how you'll be using it the most. Test how easy it is to steer and navigate the vehicle, especially in tight corners or using the front wheels that rotate. It is recommended to test the brakes too as they can be difficult to operate when both child seats are in use.

The Phil and Teds Sports Double is the perfect double stroller for those who are looking for a high-quality stroller at a reasonable price that can do it all.

The seat and carrycot recline and can be used parent-facing or facing each other and the tyres with air-filled tires and all-wheel suspension make it suitable to tackle a variety of terrains. The seat has an excellent storage basket beneath the seat, but this is partially hidden by the second child's seat.

The Stroller & Co City Tour 2 Double stroller is a great example for a lightweight and comfortable dual stroller. Our reviewers praised the generous UPF 50+ canopy, which provides real shade and includes a peekaboo window, while both seats recline into a variety of positions at the touch of a button. One seat can be set to lie flat, meaning babies can sleep peacefully in the carrycot that is attached to it.

Other great features of this pushchair include the padded handlebar, cup pouch and holder, the easy-to-use braking system, and the reversible seat liner made of bamboo that is naturally anti-bacterial on one side and soft jersey on the other.

Side-by-side models tend to be more expensive than tandem buggies, however they can provide ultimate flexibility as they are usually designed to fit in narrow aisles and doors.

Its rear seat is also covered to keep your child warm in winter.

A tandem is narrower than a side-by-side, which makes it difficult to navigate narrow aisles in shops or on busy walking routes.
