Tandem prams, also referred to as "in-line" double prams, are a classic design with two bassinets or chairs placed side-by-side. The front seat is typically padded and reclines to a flat position, making it suitable for infants, while the second seat is more upright and is able to accommodate toddlers from around three years older. Some models let you select whether your children stare at each other or look outwards. Many tandems also have the option to convert into a single pushchair when you decide that your oldest child does not require the second seat.
In terms of cost it is cheaper than a twin pushchair and is a great option for parents who want to save money without compromising on safety or functionality. However, one disadvantage of a tandem is that it could be a bit heavy and lengthy to steer especially when bumping up or down kerbs, and it is often less stable than a twin pushchair, especially if the child who is older is seated at the front. A tandem isn't always easy to fit on public transportation, and it can be difficult to navigate narrow pavements.
