It's simple to maneuver and moves well, as per testers. However, it could feel a little long when you're using it in double mode.

The suspension is excellent for rough surfaces, and the adjustable height handle makes steering simple. It's a great choice for older kids because the seat is elevated in a stadium style.

There are two kinds of double buggy - twin which is where your children are together, or tandem, where one seat is in front of the other. A twin buggy has the main advantage that children can play together, rather than fighting over who sits in the front. Twin buggys can be wider and make it more difficult to navigate through aisles and doorways in the supermarket.

Tandem buggies are generally a bit shorter however they're still more than single models. They're also less stable when bumping up kerbs and might require dismantling to fit in your car boot. The majority of double buggies come with an independent seat recline that is nowadays a standard feature. Be sure that the model allows you to adjust the child's seat to a position they're most comfortable in.

Comfort

Double buggys that are comfortable for parents and children are the best. Check for padding on the straps, how much recline each seat is able to do and if the seats are adjustable independently so that you can adjust them as your children grow. Also, check the weight limit and whether they both have a sun canopy as well as a hood to protect your children from rain and wind.
