A double buggy can be a lifesaver for parents with two kids. It isn't expensive. You'll also need to consider the price of car seats or carrycots, in addition to the price of the buggy. However, there are many options that won't break the bank.
A great option for those who are looking to cut costs is the UPPAbaby Vista 2 which is an incredible value at less than PS1,000 and can accommodate twins with one baby and one toddler or three kids (with the 'PiggyBack' boards, which you buy separately). It's the most compact side-by-side available that's available and has a footprint that's the same as a single pushchair so it's easy to navigate doors, shopping aisles, and public transportation.
The iCandy Orange is another great alternative and one of our top budget double buggies. It has 30 seating configurations and features soft suspension that makes light work of the kerbs. It is also able to be changed from a single to a double so that it grows with your family. It can even accommodate another child in the back.

The safety straps and how the seats adjust to the growth of your child are crucial. Also, check if the seats have different recline positions for different ages. Also, look for a big storage basket and pockets and whether there are any other items that are useful, like sunshades or rain covers.
If you're planning to be using the buggy mostly around town or on public transport, make sure that it is lightweight and easy to maneuver. Also, consider how much it weighs fully loaded and if it is easy to fold and fit in your car boot. If you are using the buggy frequently in
