Double Buggys

[clairebear22]

To be honest mine still looks fairly new!!

The straps get a bit gubby if baby eats anything in it but all I do is scrub them and they come up good as new!

I do really like the black one though!

Oh 1 more thing I forgot to mention...... try and keep the tires pumped up so they're rock hard, they lose a tiny bit air naturally due to baby/childs weight so keep your eye on them. If they're not rock hard the buggy can feel very heavy to push.

can I just ask, when people say double ones still get through single doors.
Is that true for everywhere?
Cause even with my single in busy crowded small shops I still have to squeeze past.

 

[mummynmummy2b]

Well basically they have to be manufactured at a width designed to fit through a single door but in reality that can be a very very tight squeeze!! Even harder is getting down aisles in shops, I was trying out a Nipper 360 twin the other day in mothercare and nearly took out a whole display of garden toys as I had about 1cm to spare!! When youve got 2 kids that need to be in a buggy there seems to be no ideal option unfortunately!!!

Doors are supposed to be of a width that can fit a wheelchair through, which would mean a twin buggy can fit too but it really isnt always the case xx

Yeah, my dads in a wheelchair and hardly gets in alot of places.
Deffo think I will go with a one in front of the other one.

I know in John Lewis it's about £200 cheaper than Mothercare with the same repair guarantee and a cocoon! So chuffed I went in there!!

my maclaren twin techno fits through most doors and i love it!! The big one tries to hit the little one so that is a down side but apart from that its great!

When you look at the dimensions on the the net tho, don't take them as gospel coz i went to mother care armed with a tape measure and the silvercross pop duo was a few cm's bigger than specified xx

I just got my Britax B Dual today and it's gorgeous.

Heavier and bulkier then Phil&Teds but looks nicer and is more 'pram like' and much more comfy.
Both seats lie totally flat and are suitable for newborns. Huge shopping basket, has two big hoods and baby is quite high up unlike P&T.

However i would recommend P&T any day because it's light and compact, but has everything you need, the only reason i bought Britax is because i cant help myself .. but it does look a lot nicer then any other double pushchairs i had.

Are you a self confessed pushchair addict? LOL

 

[vixforever]

I saw a funky double pushchair it was black and had loads of neon on it in Mothercare.....downfall it was side by side lol

I love my iCandy Pear which is tandem. I can get it through all doors and round shops no probs. My friend who has a twin side by side says she can get in most doors but often once she's in clothes shops etc she cant get round the aisles and displays easily.
