Side by Side

The side-byside buggy is the classic choice for families with twins, or siblings of different age.

When comparing different double pushchairs, consider the weight of each seat, frame and suspension. The heavier the pushchair is and the heavier it is, the more difficult it will be to push. This is particularly the case on uneven surfaces. Then check the folding dimensions and whether or not you are able to remove the seats, which makes it more compact. Look for features like an easy one-handed fold that home tester Kirstie described as "genius" and a convenient strap that you can wear over your shoulders.

Alternatively, you can choose a tandem double pushchair that places children one behind the other. It's not as maneuverable as a side-by-side, but it's still a viable alternative for families of all sizes, and may be more suitable for older toddlers.

Our labs liked the ease of use to switch between configurations. They also found the instructions to be clear and straightforward however it could require some time to master.

Some double pushchairs will only allow you to place your children side-by-side and generally face the world, but there are exceptions, such as the Bugaboo Donkey and Mountain Buggy Duet that can be configured for both front and parent facing seating (though this can increase the overall dimensions of the chassis). Tandems are generally more maneuverable through kerbs, but they can be a challenge to maneuver through narrow doors and aisles.
