Safety
Check that the double buggy meets all safety standards prior to buying it. The safety straps and how the seats adjust to your child's growth are important. Also, make sure that the seats are reclined in different positions for different ages. Also, look for a large storage basket with pockets and whether there are any other extras that might be useful like sunshades, rain covers.
If you're going to be using the buggy mainly around town or on public transport, ensure that it is lightweight and easy to move. Also, you should take into consideration the weight of the buggy once it's fully loaded, and whether it can be folded up and placed in your car boot. If you intend to use the buggy in smaller villages and towns, make sure that the wheels well-gripped and are able to traverse narrow roads and doorways.

It can also be difficult to get them through narrow doors, and it can be difficult to go between kerbs.
