Double Strollers: Room Enough for Two



 

Dream on me double stroller

Expecting twins? Have a toddler and another baby on the way? A double stroller is the solution for getting around with the least amount of difficulty. Double strollers are available in two styles: side-by-side and tandem. Think about your lifestyle and how you will use the stroller to choose the right one for you.

 

Side-by-Side Double Stroller

A side-by-side double-wide stroller is the more classic style of double stroller.

What It Is: Two seats face the same way so the children are in an equal setting and can interact with each other.

Pros: When folded, it is more compact and easier to store.

Cons: Because they are wider, side-by-side strollers are harder to maneuver through narrow doorways, hallways and in crowded city streets. 

 

Tandem Stroller

Instead of a two-across double stroller, a tandem stroller often has a more modern look, takes up less space and is more convenient for on-the-go parents. 

What It Is: In a tandem stroller, one kid sits up front and another in the back at a lower height.

Pros: When open, it is more compact and easier to maneuver around tight spaces.

Cons: Because the children are not side by side, they will be more isolated and not able to interact with each other.
