When it comes to buying a double buggy, there's lots to think about. You'll need to ensure that your children are comfortable and safe as you explore new sights and routes. You should also consider the price as well as the size, weight and durability. Selecting a reputable brand (within the budget) will boost resales and make purchasing easier.
Based on the amount of children you'll need to carry There are two kinds of double buggy with 3 wheels: front-facing and side-by-side. The buggies that are side-by-side tend to be slimmer but have a larger footprint than the front-facing models. Mountain Buggy Duet is one of the most sophisticated models on the market. This is the slimmest side-by-side buggy in the world and can fit into narrow doorways!
Tandem buggies, on the other hand, are often larger. They are typically started as a single pushchair, but can later be adjusted to accommodate the seat of a second child or carrycot using adapters. Some tandem buggies are able to accommodate twins, toddlers and a baby, or a baby because of their clever seat layouts. The UPPAbaby Vista 2 can be transformed into a triple by incorporating the optional "Piggy Back Board".

As your family expands, you'll be able to utilize the same footprint as a single buggy. The sling seat is the most important element to this. It is ideal for infants and provides greater stability, manoeuvrability and kerb-pop.
Manoeuvrability
In general, double buggys with 3 wheels are more comfortable to maneuver and manage than double pushchairs that have four wheels. This is because the front wheels are smaller, which makes them less broad and result in less weight being placed on them. They are able to be moved more easily and are also much easier to move up and down kerbs.
One of the best examples is the Mountain Buggy Duet. This is the slimmest side-by-side buggy on the market, and has a footprint the same as one single buggy. It is ideal for parents who are concerned about fitting into doorways or using public transport. It is suitable from birth, since it can fit twins or two carrycots/car seats.

The only issue is that it's a bit harder to maneuver on uneven terrain as compared to other models.
Comfort
If you plan to use your buggy for long walks or jogs it's worth spending more for one that is able to take on rough terrain. Consider a three-wheel model with big rear wheels that can take the bumps, plus a suspension system that can absorb shocks. Ideally, the front wheels should be mounted to give you more control over difficult terrain, and make it easier to push around corners.

Certain models can be folded with the seats removed, making them smaller when not being used.
