Tandem prams, also referred to as "in-line" double prams are a classic design with two seats or bassinets placed side by side.

Some models have the option of reversible seating, which lets you choose to have your children face towards each other or gaze at you. Many tandems can be converted to one pushchair once your oldest child is no longer using the second seat.

A tandem is cheaper than twin prams and is an excellent choice for parents who want to save money without compromising safety or functionality. However, the drawback of a tandem is that it can be heavy and long to steer, especially when you're bumping up or down kerbs.

A tandem can be difficult to fit on public transport, and it can be difficult to maneuver narrow pavements.
