Budget

A double-buggy can be a lifesaver when you have two kids in the car, and it shouldn't break the bank. You'll also have to think about the cost of car seats or carrycots, in addition to the price of the buggy. However, there are many options that won't break your bank.

The footprint is the same as the one of a single pushchair, meaning it is able to be easily moved through doors and shopping aisles.

Safety

When purchasing a double stroller, you must ensure that it meets all the important safety standards. This includes the safety straps, the way that the seats can be adjusted to accommodate your growing children and if they are equipped with different reclining positions to suit their age. Look for large storage baskets as well as pockets and other accessories you might find useful like sunshades and rain covers.

If you are going to use the buggy mostly around town or on public transport, make sure that it is light and easy to maneuver. You'll also want to consider the weight of the buggy when it's fully loaded, and if it can be folded up and placed in your car boot. If you use the buggy frequently in villages or small double stroller towns, check that the wheels have plenty of grip and can navigate the narrow roads and doors.
