It's under PS1,000, and it can accommodate twins as well as a baby and toddler, or even three kids with the 'PiggyBack board' (which you can purchase separately).

The seat and carrycot feature side-by-side positioning, meaning your kids can see each other, and you can keep an eye on them, meaning there's less chance of mischance between them. It's also the thinnest on the market. This means it'll fit through most doors and be maneuvered around tight corners. However, it feels heavy and long to push when it's in double mode, and isn't as effective on uneven or rough terrain as our other best-value double buggies.
This is a great mid-priced option and our top-rated double buggy. It's lightweight, has an easy-to-use shopping basket and can take 2 child car seats or one baby seat and a toddler seat.

Safety
When you purchase a double buggy, make sure it meets all the important safety standards. This includes safety straps, the way that the seats can be adjusted as your children grow and whether they have various reclining positions that are appropriate for their age. Look for an ample storage basket, pockets and any extras you may find useful, such as sunshades and rain covers.
If you intend to use the buggy primarily in the city or on public transport, make sure that it is light and easy to move. You should also think about the weight of the buggy when it's fully loaded, and whether it can be folded up and fitted in your car boot. If you are using the buggy a lot in villages or small towns, ensure that the wheels are able to grip and that it can negotiate the narrow roads and doorways.
There are many different types of double buggies that are available with side-byside models being the most well-known. They are longer and harder to push, but have the advantage of both children being able to see. These can be quite expensive.
