Comfort
A double pram pushchair is an excellent investment if you are expecting a second baby or the toddler is already a walker. You might end up taking them on long family walks or on day excursions. It is important to keep in mind that not all double prams are the same, and you need to pick the right one that is suitable for your needs.
Double prams with side by side seats allow your children to interact and see each other when they go for a walk. However, they are generally larger than single prams, and, therefore, may not pass through some doors or be tricky to manoeuvre on crowded footpaths and in shopping centres. They also tend to be heavier when folded.
Tandem double prams (in-line) are easier to maneuver, but not as narrow. They are more difficult to fold since the seat is often further away from the handle. Additionally, they might require more parts once you are ready to use them. They also cost more than a double side-by-side pram.
Some first-time parents opt for a convertible double pram to ensure their purchase is secure for the future and have the option of using it in double or single mode based on the needs of your family. They are usually quite large and bulky when folded and might not be suitable for your toddler once they've outgrown their pram seat. Research before buying.

Non-convertible side-byside double prams can be an excellent option, particularly for families with children who are close to age. These prams may be slightly larger than other double buggies and they can be difficult to navigate on busy footpaths, or on kerbs that go up and down.
