Safety
When buying a double buggy you should check that it is in compliance with all the necessary safety standards. The safety straps as well as the way in which the seats adjust to the growth of your child are vital. Also, check if the seats are reclined in different positions for different ages. Look for an ample storage basket along with pockets and other items you might find useful like sunshades and rain covers.
If you plan to use your buggy mostly in the city or on public transportation, make sure that it is light and easy to move. You will also need to take into consideration how much it weighs when fully loaded and whether it is easy to fold up and fit in your car boot. If you plan to use the buggy in small villages or towns, be sure that the wheels are sturdy and grippy enough to navigate narrow doorways and pavements.
