A Productive Rant About Double Tandem Pushchair

Which Double Tandem Pushchair is Best For Your Family?

When you're preparing for twins or another child there are plenty of products available to make life with kids on the move easier. The double tandem pushchair is one of the most popular.

Many brands offer double buggy models as part of their line, ranging from Phil & Teds to Baby Jogger. They can come as side-by-side or convertible models inline.

Stability

If you have twins, or children who are close in age, having a double tandem pushchair can make traveling with two children much more enjoyable and comfortable. There are so many designs and configurations to choose from that it can be difficult to pick the best one for your family. Some are better for running than others, or can be a third-seater when you add on buggy boards. But which ones are the most solid?

Side-by-side pushchairs (like the CYBEX Gazelle S) are great for transporting children who are the same age. However they can be difficult to maneuver around narrow entrances and shopping aisles. In this situation you may prefer models that are stadium-style like the Bugaboo Donkey, or Mountain Buggy Duet. These models allow your children to face either you or eachother depending on their configuration.

Tandem models, which place one behind the next can be more manageable, however they are they aren't as stable as single strollers or car seats for children. They can also be difficult to get up curbs and may have less storage capacity than a side-byside pushchair.

You should test the double with both seats seated, because that's the way you'll be using it the most. You should check whether it is easy to navigate and steer, particularly in tight corners or when using the front wheels that swivel. It is also important to test the brakes, since they can be difficult to use when the child and infant seats are attached.

Other great features of this model include the padded handlebar that comes with a cup pouch and holder and the easy-to-use brake system, and the reversible seat liner made of bamboo that is naturally anti-bacterial on one side and soft jersey on the other.
