Tandem
A popular option for twins and larger families alike, tandem twin pushchairs are a single pushchair that can be made to accommodate two carrycots, infant seats or a mixture of both. A lot of double travel systems utilize this type of design and are compatible with a variety of car seats (although not all).

A heavier weight may make it feel less stable when bumping up kerbs, and could require dismantling in order to fit into cars, however.

The lab experts also liked how spacious it was with a large shopping basket with front and rear suspensions that help with bumps and uneven surfaces.
