I had the t3 as a childminder to 3 1-2 year olds. It was great. Toddlers love being in the front and the back 2 seats are nice and cosy and lie flat for newborns.
14 months and twins???
Eek!
Good luck Grin

I had the abc Everest as didn't like the seat right at the front like the others :-)

Me too, another vote for ABC Everest, my toddler was 18 months when my twins were born.

I heard the t3 was so heavy at the front it is a nightmare to get up kerbs, steer etc with all the weight over front wheels

I eBayed my ABC everest :)

Another vote for ABC (Adventure, think its the same). I had the double with a single seat on top, and wish I'd got the single with a double seat on top so that I was closer to my newborn twins.

I vote for the ABC adventure buggy too - we have 3YO triplets who still go in it now!
I wish we had known about it when they were born as DD1 and 2 were 2YO and 3YO when triplets were born.

ABC are fantastic.

also, have a look at the mountain buggy triple (although that won't convert to a double/single afterwards)

I had the valco then called runabout for our triplets from when they were one and loved it. You can easily manoeuver it with one hand. It is narrow enough to get through doors but it is very noticeable. Mind you, probably any stroller for 3 children is.

I am another fan of the ABC (I have eighteen month old triplets). It is a really robust pram. If you have your heart set on a Valco or a T3, then I think the Valco is lighter. Weight is an important consideration if you are lifting it in and out if the car. The ABC is very heavy but you can quite easily detach the wheels to make it lighter to lift.
