These models allow your children to face either you or eachother according to their configuration.

Tandem models, which seat one behind the next is more manageable, but still not as stable as single strollers or child car seats. They aren't easy to lift up curbs and they could have less storage space than a side by side pushchair.

Also, you should check the brakes, as they might be difficult to operate when both child seats have been installed.
