Comfort

For instance, a side by side double stroller by side stroller lets you keep an eye on both kids at the same time and is ideal for twins or siblings who are close in age. However, it's typically wider than other models and can be difficult to maneuver through narrow spaces or crowded areas.

Sit-and-stand prams allow older siblings to stand while you push a smaller child in an infant car-seat. It's not the ideal choice for newborns but can be useful for older children that can walk for longer distances.
