Budget
A double buggy can be lifesaver for parents with two children. It isn't expensive. You'll have to take into account car seats or carrycots as well as the price of the buggy, but even then there are plenty of alternatives available that won't break the bank.
A great option for those who want to keep costs low is the UPPAbaby Vista 2 - it's an incredible value at under PS1,000 and can accommodate twins, one baby and one toddler or three children (with the 'PiggyBack' boards that you purchase separately). It's the slimmest side-by-side on the market, and comes with an area that's as big as a single pushchair, so it's easy to navigate doorways, shopping aisles and public transport.
The iCandy Orange double buggies are another great option. It comes with 30 different seating configurations and soft suspension to make kerbs easy. It also converts from single to double to accommodate your family and even add a third child to the back.

It's also the slimmest side-by-side available and will be able to pass through the majority of doors and be easily maneuvered around tight corners. It's a bit heavy and lengthy to push in double mode, and isn't as efficient as some of the other best-value double buggies on rough or uneven terrain.

Safety
Verify that the double stroller is safe before purchasing it. The safety straps and the way that the seats adapt to your child's needs are important. Also, check if the seats have different recline positions for each age group. Also look for a spacious storage basket and pockets and whether there are any other extras that might be useful like sunshades or rain covers.
If you're planning to be using the buggy primarily around town or on public transport check that it is light and easy to move. Also, think about the weight of the buggy when fully loaded, and if it is easy to fold up and fit into the car boot. If you drive the buggy often in villages or small towns, make sure the wheels are well-groomed and are able to navigate narrow pavements and doorways.
