Direct4Baby offers a variety of innovative twin and double pushchairs.

Side-by-Side
A side-by-side double buggy has the children positioned on opposite sides and usually has 2 fixed seats. They tend to be narrower than a single pushchair, making them easier to pass through doors, and more evenly weighed, making them easy to manoeuvre between kerbs.

Tandem
The tandem pushchair is placed behind the twin pushchair and provides two places for children. This arrangement is especially suitable for children of the same age as it lets you put your infant in a cozy carrycot and your toddler in a seat unit or a car seat (though not all models are designed to take both). double pram and pushchair of the top twin strollers have the front seat that reclines and a rear seat that is upright.
