Tandem (in-line) double prams
Like the name suggests the term "twin pram" refers to two bassinets or two seats facing each other. Tandem prams are generally narrower than side by side double prams, and are more maneuverable through doorways and on public transport. They do not have much storage space and are difficult to reach when both seats are in use, especially when your child is sitting in the front.
Some parents who are first-time parents opt for a tandem pram to secure their investment, particularly if they're planning on more children close in age. One of the most popular examples is our DUO2 pram Double which starts life as a single stroller and can be converted to a twin stroller by the addition of the second seat. It can also be converted back to an individual stroller when your elder child outgrows it.
Tandem prams are available in many designs. For instance an infant can be put in a bassinet at the top of the pram, while an older child is seated on the seat below. The majority of tandem prams can be converted to a travel system by adding a car capsule in the top seat.

A majority of single prams allow a toddler's board to be connected to the back so that the second child can stand or sit (depending on the kind of toddler board) while you push the stroller through.
Some first-time parents decide to secure their pram for the future purchase by purchasing double options, such as our DUO2. This means that you can use the pram in a single mode while you have a single child, and then change it into a tandem double pram when baby number two is born. This will save you the cost and hassle of having to purchase an additional double pram.
Tandem or in-line double prams are a bit larger than side by side double prams but are still more maneuverable on busy pedestrian paths and in shops. They can be difficult to use while running, and require more effort to push up or down hills.
Side by side prams are more spacious than tandem or in-line double prams pushchairs prams but are a good option when you are planning to have two children of similar age - the children will be able to view and interact with one another from their seats. They are more difficult to maneuver than tandem strollers, and may not pass through standard doors as easily.
Side-by-side prams that are not convertible cannot be used in single mode. You will need to purchase a new pram or a stroller to accommodate your younger children. They have the advantage of being a cheaper option and last longer than convertible double prams because they aren't built to be used in single and double modes. The biggest drawback is that your older child will eventually outgrow the side-byside seats and will have to be moved to a toddler seat which could be costly.
