Wondering if anyone can recommend the best type of tandem pushchair. I've already got a side by side double buggy but you can't fit a buggy board to a side by side. I,ve been looking at a marco sky as the rear seat is raised and I think it's important for both children to be able to see out of the pushchair. I,m wondering how comfortable the child who has to sit in the back will be.

hi ive had a marco sky, + points small large seats - points heavy to push high handles too long when folded to fit in a normal boot rear leg area was very narrow so that i had to remove toddlers shoes to get them out another problem i had was that because the rear seat is slightly raised and near to the front seat the child in the back was able to torment ( pull hair ) child in front. I sold mine on ebay ! ;D I now have a phil & ted - very expensive £250 second hand _ but worth it I wouldnt have anything else !  hope this helps cheryl x |

I've got a Marco sky. It is heavy to push and the handles are high (would be great if I was a few inches taller ;D). Also the rear seat doesn't have a lot of room. I had a Maclarins stroller before and would like to get another. I also had a buggy pod and didn't like it at all. It wasn't strong enough and the seat was very narrow. I throw it away and bought a triple which I use most of the time.

i have a graco stadium duo. I'm happy with it and i find it light to push.
The rear seat is slightly higher and it has been fine so far.
It can be heavy when you need to lift the front up to get up kerbs but i suppose it depends how heavy the child is sitting in the front.
It folds down quite small too!!

Hi, I am actually about to sell a Graco stadium Duo, I changed it because it wont go in the Zafira with all 7 seats up but it fits fine otherwise. Its a little heavy with 2 large toddlers in but aren't they all?? Its in great condition, has a rain cover and 1 x apron (like a footmuff but only goes over top)
Its in Moonlight design wich is a lovley dark grey colour with silver reflective trim. 5 point harness in both seats, drink tray for both seats, can fit a graco infant carrier on rear seat. Will sell for £35 plus carriage. Going to put up some cards locally when I get round to it! Can email some pics if anyone interested

Ive got the McLaren Twin Traveller as its lightweight and umberella folds to fit in the Zafira with all 7 seats up.
Only downside is that the buggy board cant fit on it, but dont use the pushchair that often anyway.
