Based on the number of children you have to carry There are two kinds of double buggy with 3 wheel stroller and car seat wheels: front-facing and side by side. The side-by-side buggies tend to be slimmer but have a larger area than front-facing models. Despite this there are some smart models available that manage to keep their size down such as the Mountain Buggy Duet. This is the slimmest buggy on the market. It even fits through narrow doors.
Tandem buggies, on other hand, are often larger. They are typically started as a single pushchair, but can then be adjusted to take an additional seat or carrycot using adapters. Some tandem buggies can accommodate twins, a toddler and a baby newborn because of their clever seat configurations. One example is the UPPAbaby Vista 2 which can be converted into a triple with the addition of the optional 'Piggy Back' board.

Comfort
If you're planning to use your buggy for long jogs or walks, it's worth spending more money on a model that can handle rough terrain.
