What type of buggy do you want?

Double buggys are ideal for transporting up to two children at once even if they're not of the same age. They can also be used as prams and have the ability to recline within each seat, allowing your children can sit or lay down in various positions. They also come with plenty of storage space for everything from snacks and drinks to nappies and wipes. They're usually lightweight, fold easily and are small enough to fit into the car boot. If you drive a great amount, you should ensure that the buggy can be easily moved with the wheels folded in your boot and taken out.

The most well-known type of double buggy is the side by side that you've probably seen on other mothers' pushchairs or even rode in as a child. They're great for older siblings or twins who want to keep up with you. They are also available in various seating options and styles, including 'cinema chairs'. They're usually easy to steer and, if you opt for a model that has soft suspension, make light work of the kerbs.

Tandem buggies are also a popular option since they're easier to turn than side-by-side. The second seat is placed behind the first rather than on top. They're usually wider than a side-by-side and can be heavy when folded, so it's essential to make sure they fit through doors and on public transport. They can be used to transport twins, a baby and toddler or three kids with the inclusion of a buggy board.

Lastly there are the'single-to-double' convertibles which can be used as a single pushchair from birth then convert to a double by attaching a second seat, carrycot or car seat to their clever frame. They're more expensive than tandem buggies and side-by-side buggies, but they offer the flexibility of a single buggie and have a high selling price.
