There are many items that can make the lives of a parent with twins or two children easier. One of them is the double tandem pushchair.

Many brands have double buggy options as part of their product range, ranging from Phil and Teds to Baby Jogger. They can be side-by-side or convertible models inline.

Stability

A Double buggy Converts to single tandem pushchair is perfect for families with twins or children with similar age. It makes the journey of two children more comfortable and less stressful. There are numerous designs and configurations available it can be difficult to decide which one is best for your family. Some are better suited for jogging, while others can accommodate a third person when you add buggyboards. Which ones are the most stable?

Side-by-side pushchairs (like the CYBEX Gazelle S) are great for transporting children of the same age. They aren't easy to maneuver through narrow entrances or shopping aisles. In this situation you might prefer models that are stadium-style like the Bugaboo Donkey, or Mountain Buggy Duet. These models allow your children to face either you or eachother according to their configuration.

Tandem models, which place one behind the other, are more manageable but they aren't as stable as single strollers or car seats for children. They can be difficult to climb up curbs and may have less storage than a side-by-side pushchair.

To gain a real impression of the stability of a double, it is important to try it out using both seats since this is the way you will use it most often. Examine the ease with which it is for you to steer and navigate the vehicle, especially in tight corners or with the front wheels that can swivel. It is recommended to test the brakes, too as they can be difficult to operate if the child and adult seats are both attached.

A tandem is more narrow than a side-byside, making it difficult to navigate narrow aisles in shops or on busy walking routes. However, it's easier to manoeuvre on rocky terrain than a standard pushchair. Some of these prams can be difficult to steer, particularly when your child weighs more.
