Double Strollers
The choice of stroller can be one of the most difficult decisions made by a
new parent. It is certainly not the
cheapest item and one can see from stroller reviews the many different types
tried by some people before
they are finally happy with their choice.
The choice becomes somewhat more complicated and the options less, when you need
to cater for more
than one child. Surprisingly, double strollers are no more
expensive than single strollers, surprising
because double strollers have to bear more weight and baby
accessories than their single counterparts
and must therefore be that much more robust, but need to be able to fold to an
acceptable size and not be
too heavy.
There are two main configurations for double strollers, side by
side and tandem, they both have their
advantages and disadvantages.
Side by side double strollers are much wider than single or tandem
strollers, but offer a good facility for
storage, tandem double strollers are much narrower, but unless the rear seat is
set higher the view of the
child at the rear of the double stroller is obscured by the seat
in front.
Here are details for the range of 5 top selling double strollers
