Can't decided, keep getting mixed reviews and can't afford to spend a fortune.

Thanks x

Donkey. Not cheap though I'm afraid.

Mountain buggy duet

bexibean · 11/08/2017 16:03

Hand a second hand out n about nipper 360 and that was pretty good too

bloodyhamabeads · 11/08/2017 16:05

Seconding Out n About Nipper 360. Wide and not fancy but lovely to push.

Depending on the age range, i actually have the cheapo babystart from argos & the icandy pear double, but the baby start is actually the better of the two!

Uppbaby vista wins because you can fit through a normal size door. Result.

FrogsSitonLogs · 11/08/2017 16:21

Phil and Teds, it was great.

City jogger mini double. Folds down really easily, big shades that go down low. Can lie down flat in it. Borrowed by all my friends for holidays even the ones that have other doubles.

10greenapples · 11/08/2017 16:23

Hated Phil and teds but it's depends for me if you don't drive I wouldn't get a side by side, so icandy peach but if you do drive the bugaboo donkey

WaaWaaWaaa · 11/08/2017 16:24

Love my out n about - Fits everywhere!

MirandaWest · 11/08/2017 16:25

I had a Phil and teds which I loved

BaxterStockboy · 11/08/2017 16:27

Started with a mountain buggy duet, didn't like it so sold and got a Phil and Ted's, disliked that even more. Eventually got a second hand donkey, still use it now and love it.

I didn't want to spend a lot on a double either cos my little boy won't need a buggy much longer, but everything seemed so expensive. We eventually opted forthe red kite push me twini, it ranges from £180- £199 (depending on retailer) and I love it. Light weight but sturdy, so easy to push, manoeuvre and fold. It was a bargain tbh.
I highly recommend it.

HUGE thanks everyone! Really appreciate you taking the time to reply.

Going to investigate all your recommendations now :)

We had iCandy but we sold it on pretty quickly it's overpriced for what it is. We now use our normal buggy with a step for our toddler and we have a cheap Joie twin buggy for going on holidays - very light and does the job

Shopkinsdoll · 11/08/2017 16:46

Phil and ted, a bit heavy but excellent to push!

EverythingNow · 11/08/2017 16:47

Baby jogger city mini. Loved it. Super narrow and light and folded really easily

Theoistfit · 11/08/2017 16:47

Baby jogger city mini was brilliant. The iCandy Pear was too heavy at the front with that age gap as the big one sat at the front. The bjcm went through most doors as well

littlemisssweetness · 11/08/2017 16:49

Baby jogger! Had a Phil and teds and hated it so much (to the point I'd avoid leaving the house)

MyLittlePickleBoo · 11/08/2017 16:51

Uppababy Vista (2015 model onwards).

HUGE basket, lightweight, folds down really small, can get it through a normal door... I can't tell you how many times my friend with a side-by-side has had to abandon her pushchair outside places and lug her baby and changing bag, etc because she couldn't fit it through doors! Both seats on the Vista have a great view too (another friend had a Phil and Teds and her little ones would argue and have full on meltdowns over who was going to sit in the front seat (the rear seat has a rubbish view and takes up the shopping basket too). At least you'll avoid that kind of drama with a Vista (or side by side).

Mol1628 · 11/08/2017 16:52

Tried several. Best was nipper 360.

FuckilyDooDah · 11/08/2017 16:53

City jogger mini double. Brilliant.

InDubiousBattle · 11/08/2017 16:54

I love our Phil and Teds Sport. Really good on public transport as it's not too huge.
