Budget
A good double buggy can be a lifesaver when you have two children with you and will not cost a fortune. It is also important to consider the cost of car seats or carrycots, as well as the cost of the buggy. But even then, there are many options that won't break your budget.
An excellent option if you want to keep costs down is the UPPAbaby Vista 2 - an incredible value at less than PS1,000 and can accommodate twins, one baby and one toddler or three children (with the 'PiggyBack' boards that you can purchase separately). It's the slimmest side-by-side on the market, and comes with the same footprint as a single pushchair. This means it's easy to get through doorways, shopping aisles and public transport.
