A double pushchair is a great option for families with twins, or a baby and toddler. Double buggys or twin prams, as they are commonly referred to, come in a variety of configurations that will fit any family. Some are side by side, while others have two fronts and a rear for small spaces. Some can be converted into single prams when your children grow out of them, making them an ideal choice for families that are growing.
Side-by-side twin buggies (or tandem twin buggies) are easy to steer as their front wheels can be locked for extra stability, and there's usually more storage space behind them.

They're less likely to have carrycots for babies, and are typically larger than single buggies. They're still easily maneuverable, but many have recline that is independent, meaning both kids can sit up straight or lie in a snooze position.
