Side-by-Side
Twin pushchairs are a great choice for parents who want to keep their children close and visible. They are also more compact and more maneuverable than tandem strollers. They may not fit through certain hallways and doors. It's crucial to verify the dimensions.

Most of them come with seats that can recline and close to flat and be adjusted into multiple positions, including two lying flat positions for infants. They also have a generous amount of storage space to store your items of clothing and other gear. Some come with a large shopping basket that sits behind the seat in a parent-facing mode, giving you easy access to items your children need during your outings.
The Mountain Buggy Duet is a excellent example of a tandem pushchair that is side-by-side. It's the tiniest tandem pushchair on the market and has a footprint similar to the footprint of a single buggy. It is also extremely lightweight and easy to maneuver across different terrains. This makes it perfect for outdoor enthusiasts. It comes with a large canopy and UPF 50+ material for maximum protection against the elements.

Our test subjects also found it very comfortable for children to ride in, and the seats are roomy with plenty of legroom.

Tandem
A popular choice for twins and larger families, a tandem twin pushchair is a single-buggy that can be modified to accommodate two carrycots, infant seats, or a combination of both. Many double travel system prams systems use this design and are compatible with a wide variety of car seats (although not all). This type of pushchair can be larger than a standard side-byside however, it is also easier to get through doors and onto public transport. It may feel less stable when you bump up kerbs due to its weight. It might need to be dismantled to be able to fit in the car.

The seat is also a great height for older kids to to sit comfortably.

Our lab experts loved how easy it was to set up, with a clever frame that expands widthways and lets the seat units in and out with just a click. The lab experts also liked how large it was, with an enormous shopping basket as well as front and rear suspensions to help with bumps and uneven surfaces. The kids did feel it was a little too long in twin mode, and, when using the two carrycots or seats both children have to face forwards, which could be an issue for some.
