There are two main kinds of double buggy - twin which is where your children are side-by-side, and tandem where one seat is in front of the other. The main advantage of twin buggy is that your children can interact without having to rotate or argue over who gets the best place. However, twin buggys are usually wider and can be difficult to navigate through the supermarket's doorways and aisles.

Tandem buggies are generally a bit shorter, but they're still longer than single models. They're also less stable when bouncing up kerbs and might require dismantling in order to fit into your car boot. Independent seat recline is now a common feature on most double buggies, so ensure that the model will let you adjust each child's seat to the position they're most comfortable in.

Comfort

A good double buggy should give both parents and children plenty of comfort. Be sure to look for padding on the straps, the amount of recline each seat can do and whether the seats can be independently adjusted so that you can adjust them as your children develop. Check the weight limit and whether both have a hood or sun canopy to shield from rain and wind.

If you're looking for a flexible alternative to a double pushchair then think about a baby carrier. They're great for toddlers that want to walk, but still need the comfort of a ride. They're also ideal for newborns and babies. Some carriers can be used in conjunction with the car seat for greater flexibility.
