They are generally larger than single prams, and may not fit through certain doors. They can also be difficult to navigate on busy streets or in shopping malls. They are also bulkier when folded.
Tandem double prams (in-line) are more convenient to maneuver, however they aren’t as wide. They are more difficult to fold because the seat is usually further away from the handle and they may contain more components to assemble when you’re ready to use them again.
