Double strollers are available in two styles: tandem and side by side.

Double buggies are generally heavier and bulkier. If you're planning to buy one that you intend to keep for a long period of time be aware of this.

The most well-known double buggy designs are side-by-sides and tandems. Tandems have the children positioned side by side with each other, giving them the same view and can aid in avoiding sibling fights over who gets to sit where. They're not foolproof and children are still able to punch or kick one another when they are riding. Side-by-sides are a classic design, with two fixed seats arranged on one frame for a stroller.

It's worth noting that some kids can feel isolated or lonely in a front-facing tandem because they don't have the same view of the world around them.
