This design is used by a number of double travel systems and is compatible with a wide range of car seats. This kind of pushchair generally is larger than a side-by-side model, but it is able to get through doors and on to public transport, particularly with a step-through frame. A heavier weight could make it feel less stable as you go up kerbs and may require dismantling to fit into cars, but.

One model is the iCandy Peach, which offers 16 seating options and a compact fold when not in use.

The iCandy Wave is popular with parents who are conscious of their image and can be customised by adding a variety of accessories to fit your individual style.
Our lab experts loved the ease of set up, thanks to an intelligent frame that can be expanded widthwise and allows the seats out and in with a single click. They also appreciated how spacious it was, with a deep shopping basket and front and rear suspension to ease the way over bumps and uneven surfaces. In twin mode, they found it to be a bit too long, and when using two carrycots or seats, both children must be facing forward, which might be an issue for others.

It also includes a peekaboo view, which kids and parents alike will love.
