Depending on the amount of children you'll need to carry There are two main types of double Buggy 3 wheel double stroller wheels - sovren.media -: front-facing and side by side. Side-by-side buggies are slimmer than front-facing ones, however they tend to have larger footprints. Despite this there are some smart models on the market that manage to reduce their size such as the Mountain Buggy Duet. It is the slimmest side-byside buggy available and can fit into narrow doors!
Tandem buggies, on the other hand, are often larger. They begin as a single stroller, but can be adjusted by adapters to accommodate a second seat or carrycot. Some tandem buggies can accommodate twins, a toddler and a baby, or a baby due to their clever seat layouts. The UPPAbaby Vista 2 can be transformed 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 then you should spend more money on a model that can take on rough terrain. Find a model that has three wheels with large rear wheels that can withstand the bumps, and a suspension system to absorb shocks. The front wheels should be fixed to give you more control over tricky terrain and enable you to maneuver around corners.

A smooth fold mechanism is another feature to look out for. Our Lab experts prefer models with straps under the seats that can pull the buggy apart, or a lever to release a catch that folds the frame in half, taking just a second or two. Some models can be folded with the seat removed which makes them smaller when not in use.
