Some models allow you to select whether your children stare at each other or outwards. A lot of tandems offer the option of being converted into a single pushchair in the event that you decide that your child's oldest does not require the second seat.

A tandem is cheaper than a twin pram and can be an ideal choice for parents looking to save money, but without losing safety or function. However, a drawback of a tandem is that it could be a bit heavy and lengthy to steer, especially when you're bumping up or down kerbs, and it is usually less stable than a twin pram, especially if the child with the most weight is seated in the front. A tandem can be difficult to get onto public transport, and it can be difficult to maneuver on narrow pavements.

The iCandy Peach, a popular model with a focus on image, is a fantastic choice for a single parent who wants a sleeker style. However, the tandem mode makes it feel long and heavy to push. It has an expanded frame that increases in width to accommodate the second seat. It can be used with a variety of car seats, buggy seats, and carrycots (two at a time or separately). The iCandy Wave is another lightweight tandem option that is easy to use and compatible with a range of carrycots and car seats.

Some models have reversible seating that allow you to customize the configuration for your family throughout the infant and toddler years. This lets you keep your kids in sight at all times and also gives them a chance to get to know each other as they stroll.

Tandem prams can be jogging buggies, or all-terrain buggies. They are ideal for outdoor excursions, like to the park. They are also great for narrow aisles or checkouts in shops and supermarkets, as they are smaller.

The Redsbaby JIVE3 pram for instance, can be used in tandem mode from birth with the addition of the rumble seat. (PS249) If your child gets bored of the rumble seat, you can change to one pram mode. You can also opt to use the car capsule adaptors to transform it from a newborn to a toddler travel system.

The Side by Side Pram by Babybee is a different alternative. This side-by-side double pram is available in a range of colors and comes with a beautiful modern style. Designed to be used right from birth, you can add the LUNA Cocoon for newborns (PS262) and the LUNA Infant Seats (PS53 each).

You can fit up to three children on the seat board, or two toddlers in the seats, with enough space for shopping bags. Accessories such as rain covers are also available. Most convertible double strollers are bigger and heavier than single pushchairs because they have to be able to accommodate two or more children. The Graco Modes Nest2Grow is one example of a convertible that is affordable that is extremely easy to use, although our testers thought it was a bit heavy for the price.

Some convertible double strollers, like the Baby Jogger City Select 2 has a carrycot option that is suitable for infants. This allows the double stroller to be folded down and reduced in size when it is not used. Our test subjects were awed by the City Select's innovative one-handed fold, although it requires a bit of practice. It's also very nimble and responsive, despite it being bigger than other double single pushchair strollers.

Another option that is reasonably priced is an option that is affordable is the Cybex Mockingbird Single-to-double pushchair Stroller. The seat can be transformed from a parent-facing infant car seat to an forward-facing toddler seat. The bassinet mode makes it a great option for infants.

For greater flexibility, opt for a convertible with dual modes such as the iCandy Peach. It's a compact double stroller that is able to accommodate two children in a tandem. It can also be used to create a tandem by adding a second seating kit. It is responsive and nimble and our testers loved its sleek design. It's not as light as the other pushchairs on our list however it does come with an enormous shopping basket that is handy for parents carrying bags full of toys and groceries.

Lightweight

Some parents like to future-proof their double buggy when they have a child and are expecting another, so a convertible option is a great option. The iCandy Peach allows you to transform from a single to a double pram Buggy pushchair with the addition of either an infant seat or the brand's carrycot (which is suitable for sleep overs). The seats are very comfortable and our testers appreciate the fact that they can recline in a variety of positions. They also like the fact that the canopy has a window that peeks out and offers UPF 50+ protection. The rear seat can be lifted high to offer an elevated platform for the child to climb off and on, to allow them to access items in the basket of groceries.

Cher stated that the only downside of the iCandy Peach was its weight. However, she believed this was offset because it's easy to move and has plenty of storage and cup holders for children and parents seats-back pockets, as well as a large basket underneath the seat. She also appreciated the feature that the seats are reversible, so they can be set to face one another for siblings who wish to talk and get together while out and about.

A lighter, but equally impressive option is the Delta Children LX side-by-side stroller that weighs only 18 lbs, is super compact and has an auto-standing fold that makes it easy to carry and store in your trunk or at home. Parents love the quality of the materials and craftsmanship as well as the affordable price. The only issue is that the seats don't recline as far as other models we've tried and the back seat isn't as well-lit due to its position that is higher than the front seats.

The Joolz Geo 3 is another popular option. It is slim, sleek and easy to steer and comes with a lifetime guarantee. It's important to keep in mind that, despite their slimmer design Side by side prams are still larger than tandems and in-line doubles and can be tricky to navigate on busy streets or in shops. They are also smaller and therefore easier to maneuver in tight spaces.
