Side-by-Side
This is the most common double foldable pushchair. It is usually able to accommodate two children side-by-side. They're generally bigger than single pushchairs. This can make them less agile on the footpaths. It can also be difficult to move through kerbs with the car seat is in place. However the extra width does mean that they're generally easier to navigate through doors and are distributed more evenly making them easier to carry around on your back.
They can be used as a twin pram from birth, and many models can be used with a carrycot or 2 car seats. Some models can be converted into a single mode with the basket (like the Cybex Venus).
The Bugaboo Donkey 5 is a perfect illustration of this. In Twin Mode, you can fit the rear seat alongside a carrycot. This creates a totally enclosed space for twins and is ideal for newborns. This pram also comes with a couple of really neat accessories, such as the newborn cocoons, which can be put on face either way (for a twin-facing pram uk) or facing inwards (for a normal single). It is not as lightweight as some other options however it's very cleverly constructed.
Lightweight
Cybex is known for its nifty pushchairs and the single-to double is no exception. The frame can be expanded to accommodate an additional seat. You can use the pushchair as twins from birth by adding two cocoons for newborns that cost PS59 each. These cocoons create lie-flat areas that are enclosed. The large basket of shopping behind the seat can be used in mono mode for a single child. It comes with both front and rear suspension that allows it to handle bumps and uneven surfaces more easily. Our reviewers chose this car as their top pick.
Available in a variety of fashionable colors.
Tandem
If you're planning to have twins, you want a tandem pushchair that permits the children to sit close to each other so that they can look at each one another. These are great for things like going to the zoo since the children will be able to gaze at all the animals together. They're also ideal for parents who must keep an eye on their toddler and the other on their child, as they can see both of them at the same time.
Some tandem pushchairs are very adaptable, since they can be converted back to single mode. This is especially useful if you're planning to have more than two kids (or only your oldest child does not require a buggy anymore). This will save you from having to store a buggy empty which can be costly.
For instance for instance, the Cybex Venus can be used in both mono and double mode and has a clever frame that can be expanded to accommodate a second seat. It's not the lightest of pushchairs car seats, however it comes with an enormous shopping basket that sits behind the front seat in double mode (and at the back of the seat when it's mono mode). The seats can be set up so that they face one opposite or higher up to observe what each is doing.
Some double tandem pushchairs like the Joolz Geo 3, are capable of seating one over the other or side-by-side. The compact, sleek frame makes it easier to navigate through doorways and aisles of supermarkets. Some models can also be used on rough terrain, or for a jogging path due to their wide rear wheels and Pram Uk four-wheel suspension.
Another advantage of a tandem pushchair is that it can often include two carrycots, or a car seat, and buggy seat. This means you can create an entire travel system from the outset and save money on separate purchases. Be aware that tandems are heavier and longer, and they may be less stable when you bump into kerbs or navigating uneven surfaces. They also tend to need dismantling to fit into cars.
