www.stes.tyc.Edu.tw)
This collection of double buggies and prams is perfect for parents with twins or children of similar age. Tandem models offer greater mobility on public transport and in smaller spaces.
Side-by-side buggies like the Out n About Nipper Double are slim enough to pass through most doorways and take up less space on the road. Look for a recline that is independent and impressive suspension to tackle difficult terrain.
Comfort
It is essential to have a twin stroller that is comfortable if you plan to take twins out. You can get a seat with adjustable calf rests that will help keep babies comfy, as well as an extension of the sun canopy as well as a large storage basket. Many manufacturers also provide a range of extras to ensure that you have everything for family outings including cups holders and rain covers.
Another important factor to consider is the size of your buggy. There are a few twins with a slimmer profile that will fit through doors that are standard, but you'll have to measure them and consult the manufacturer before purchasing. You'll also have to alter your seating arrangement when you have twins of different age or with different requirements.

Safety
The best twin buggies come with suspensions that can handle grass, gravel paths and kerbs. Some have two front wheels that provide additional stability on bumpy roads or in rough terrain. Look for features like an auto-stop brake that stops the buggy when you pull off the handlebar so that you can stop it before it flies away. Make sure you know the weight limit for a double buggy if you want to take your kids on a run or walk. It's also an excellent idea to test the seat recline, to make sure your kids are comfortable on long jogging or walking.
There are three types of twin buggies: tandem, side-by-side and one-seated. Side-by-side models are perfect for twins or siblings very close in age because they allow both to sit together to communicate and chat during strolls. This kind of twin buggy can be narrower than other types that makes them more convenient to maneuver and fit through doors. They might be heavier, have a larger footprint, and feel less stable when bumping into kerbs.
Tandem buggy models are more likely to be double travel systems, and offer the possibility of attaching two carrycots or car seats at the same time. Some models can be extended to accommodate two identical baby car seats rear-facing position. They may be smaller and longer than twin buggies that are side-by-side. However, they may also be smaller and longer than single buggies.
One-seaters are typically narrower than other types of double buggy, and take up less of the pavement. This makes them an excellent choice for siblings or twins of varying ages, who would rather sit beside each other and avoid waking each other awake by pulling their hair or fighting. Some models are designed to be independent in their seat recline which means that your children can snooze comfortably without kicking each one.
Convenience
If your kids are looking to take their favorite dolls or teddies out on an adventure with them, they can do it easily with a twin buggy. Many models have seats where two children can sit side by side to interact, and some even have a handy carry basket that folds down to store everything.

Most twin buggies are either tandem or side-by-side, which allows children to be seated next to one another or behind. Side-by side models are narrower, easier to maneuver and are suitable for children of all different ages. Tandems are wider and may not fit in smaller car boots, however they provide the benefit of children being able interact with each other.

Some models also feature a tray for parents with cup holders, a change mat, and an under-seat basket for storage.
Selecting the right type of wheel and size is an additional important factor to consider when buying a twin buggy. Double buggy wheels with all-terrain capabilities will allow you to easily navigate mud, gravel, and uneven surfaces.
