Budget

A double buggy can be a lifesaver for parents with two young children. It shouldn't cost a fortune. You'll also have to think about the cost of car seats or carrycots, and the price of the buggy. But even then, there are many options that won't break your budget.

Safety

Make sure that the double buggy meets all safety standards prior to buying it. The safety straps as well as the way in which the seats adjust to the growth of your child are important. Also, ensure that the seats are reclined in different positions for different ages. Look for a large storage basket, pockets and any extras you might need, like sunshades and rain covers.

If you're planning to be using the buggy mainly in the city or on public transport, ensure whether it is light and easy to move. You should also consider the weight of the buggy when it's fully loaded and whether it can be folded up and put in the car boot. If you use the buggy often in villages or small towns, make sure the wheels have plenty of grip and can navigate narrow pavements and doors.

There are a myriad of double buggies, but the most well-known is the side-by-side model. They are larger and more difficult to push but offer the benefit of both kids being able to see. They can also be expensive.

Tandem buggies are another option and have the kids placed next to one another. This is a more comfortable option for older children, but it also means that the buggy is less stable than a side-by-side. It can be a challenge to navigate narrow doors, and up and down kerbs.
