Side-by-Side
Twin pushchairs are an excellent option for parents who want to keep their children close and in sight. They're also more compact than tandem strollers, and they're easier to maneuver. They might not fit through certain hallways and doors. It is important to verify the dimensions.
The most effective twin pushchairs for side-by-side use are constructed of durable materials and have many features that will allow you to adjust to the needs of your growing family. The majority of them have seats that can recline to near-flat and can be adjusted to multiple positions, including two lie-flat positions for newborns. There is also a lot of storage space for your belongings and shopping. Some models have a large storage basket behind the seat, which is facing you. This allows you to easily access items that your children might need on your outings.
The Mountain Buggy Duet is a great example of a tandem pushchair that is side-by-side. It's the slimmest twin pushchair available and has a footprint that's roughly the same as the footprint of a single buggy. It's also extremely light and easy to maneuver across different terrains.

It's also comfortable for children to ride in. The seats are large with plenty of legroom.
The UPPAbaby Vist v2 is another popular option for families with two young toddlers or infants. It can fit two infant car seats and is designed to grow along with your children. The two seats can be converted into a stand-and-sit configuration for older siblings. The seats can be reclined to almost flat and come with a cover which zips up to provide extra protection. Its easy one-click fold makes folding a breeze and it has useful suspension that can help it take on bumps and lumps.

Tandem
A popular choice for twins and larger families, tandem twin pushchairs are a single-buggy that can be modified to accommodate two carrycots, infant seats or a combination of both. This model is used by a number of double travel systems and is compatible with most car seats. This type of pushchair pram can be a bit larger than a standard side-by-side, but it is easy to maneuver through doors and onto public transport. A heavier weight may make it feel less stable as you go up kerbs and may require dismantling in order to fit into cars, however.
Some tandem buggy frames can also be used as a single frame with an 'rumble seat' that can be placed in front, behind or under which is ideal for children of various age groups. The iCandy Peach is one example, offering 16 different seating configurations. It also folds compactly when not in use.

The seat is at a decent height so that children who are older can sit comfortably.
Convenient

You can adjust their recline, calf support and canopy to suit your needs, making this a convenient option for moms who want a simple, double pushchair.

The lab experts also appreciated the spaciousness of it, with a large shopping basket with front and rear suspensions to assist with bumps and uneven surfaces.
