Definitely avoid a side by side with a toddler or bigger children cause they can become really hard to maneuver and are lopsided.

We finally bite the bullet and bought a Steelcraft Strider Plus with the second seat and I am completely in love, it is worth every cent that we spent. Our 2 year old sits happily in the back (which we thought she wouldn't but could go in either) and my 5 month uses the front. We have had it a couple of weeks and cannot fault it yet (well besides the accessory bag cant be attached when the second seat is on). We've been parks, function, shopping, over friends and it has handled it all. It is a little wider which took a little getting used to as I took out a few things with the back wheels just cause I'm not used to them and it is heavier than most prams but its solid and navigates well considering. When it just DD2 and me the second seat slides easily off and the car capsule also clips straight into it so I dont disturb her. It also comes with everything included, boot cover, weather cover, mosquito net, seat pad, accessory bag.

Check it out, I would recommend spending the extra money to anyone and our side by side is going in the bin. Strider Plus
