Which double Stroller With standing Platform Tandem Pushchair is Best For Your Family?

There are many items that can make the lives of parents with twins or two children simpler. One of these is the double tandem pushchair.

Most brands offer double buggy models as part of their product range, ranging from Phil & Teds to Baby Jogger. They are available as inline or side-by-side convertible models.

Stability

Whether you have twins or children of similar age, the double tandem pushchair makes travelling with two of them much more enjoyable and comfortable. But, with numerous styles and configurations available it can be hard to decide which one is the best for your family. Some are better suited to jogging, while others can accommodate a third passenger by adding buggyboards. Which ones are the most stable but?

Side-by-side pushchairs (like the CYBEX Gazelle S) are great for transporting children who are the same age. They aren't easy to navigate through narrow doors or aisles of shopping. In this case it is best to go with a stadium-style model, like the Bugaboo Donkey or Mountain Buggy Duet that allow children to be facing either one or the other based on the arrangement.

Tandem models, which put one behind the other, are more manageable but still not as stable than single strollers or child car seats. They can also be tough to get up curbs and could have less storage space than a side-by-side pushchair.

You should try out the double with both seats in place, as that is how you'll be using it the most. It is important to test the ease with which you can navigate and steer, especially in tight corners or when using the front wheels that swivel. Also, you should test the brakes, as they might be difficult to use if both child seats have been connected.
