The egg2 features an elegant frame and can be used as a single or double buggy, bringing 2 seat/carrycots. It has 5 reclining positions for maximum comfort and is ideal for rougher terrain.

Side-by-Side

Parents who want to keep their children in close proximity and within view ought to consider twin pushchairs. They are also more compact and easier to maneuver than tandem strollers. However, they may not fit through some entrances and hallways, so it's essential to confirm the dimensions.

The best twin pushchairs that are side-by-side are made of tough materials and come with plenty of features to allow you to adjust them to your expanding family. Most of them feature seats that recline to near flat and can be adjusted in various positions. This includes two lying flat positions designed specifically for infants. There is also a lot of storage for your gear and shopping. Some have a large shopping basket that can be placed behind the seat, in parent facing pushchair-facing mode, giving you easy access to the things your children need during your outings.

The Mountain Buggy Duet is a good example of an excellent tandem pushchair that is side-by-side.

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

The UPPAbaby vist v2 is a favorite option for families with two babies or toddlers.

The one-click folding system is simple and the suspension helps it to take on bumps and bumps.

Tandem

A popular option for twins and larger families alike, a tandem twin pushchair is a single buggy that can be adapted to accommodate two carrycots, infant seats - or a mix of both. This type of design is utilized by a variety of double travel systems and is compatible with most car seats. This type of pushchair generally is larger than a side-by-side model but it is easier to get through doors and on to public transport, particularly that have a step-through frame. It can feel less stable when bouncing up kerbs because of its heavier weight. It could need to be dismantled to be able to fit in a car.

Some tandem buggy frames are able to be used as singles with an additional rumble seat that can be placed in front, back or under. This is ideal for children of varying age. The iCandy Peach is one example with 16 seating options. It folds down compactly when it is not in use.

Our lab experts loved how easy it was to set up, thanks to an innovative frame that expands widthways and allows the seats in pram and car seat out with just a click. They also appreciated how spacious it was, with a deep shopping basket and rear and front suspensions to help navigate bumps and uneven surfaces. In twin mode, they felt it was to be a bit too long, and when using two carrycots or a seat, both children must be facing forward, which might be an issue for others.
