Double Buggy Question

Jane Power Twin Pro Tandem

Does anyone know if this buggy fits into the boot of a VW Golf? We want to buy one but can't find anywhere that stocks it for us to try out first. If anyone has used one before, would you recommend it?

Thanks

Me! We had a powertwin pro when we had our golf. It fit fine. Much better than double maclaren that had to be rammed in and double nipper that needed wheel removed. Loved the buggy esp when twins were small. Preferred nipper once they were approx 18 months (and we had a bigger car).

thanks! we have a 2 year old and a new born. do you think the Jane power twin pro is as good for those ages as for twins? is it very heavy and bulky taking in and out of the car? Is it easy to maneuvre? how comfortable is it for the kids to be one in front of the other rather than next to one another? Also, is it very long when pushing it in shops etc.? So frustrating not to be able to try it out! Any insight would be most useful - thanks so much

i had a jane powertwin for similar ages. not sure if it was a jane powertwin pro? it was a 3-wheeler. i loved it but was sometimes hard on the arms with older child in front, if the path is slightly sloped on one side the buggy will pull at the front but you'll prob find this with any 3 wheeler doubles. it will fit into any hatchback cars but not into 'non-hatchback' as the front wheel does stick up a bit so it should fit into the golf. its brilliant for maneuvering around shops and stuff. Hope this helps Smile
