Right, I need your extensive experiences to help me make a decision!!
I need a double buggy for a 16 month old and a newborn. So far I've looked at and decided against:
Graco/Mothercare tandems - too bulky and hard to control.
Combi WE2: too flimsy
Maclaren etc side by side; too hard to push and control walking 3 yr old ds simultaneously!
Kidz Kargo Discovera Tandem: too hard to push and steer with a heavyish toddler in the front.
Out and About Nipper: Too lightweight and don't like the way the seats lie back so far even when fully upright.
Phil and Ted's E3: don't like the seat underneath or the lack of anywhere to carry shopping when both seats in use.
Most of the 3 wheel doubles won't fit through my front door.
M&P Twin Aria: Too low down and rickety.
So, at the moment I am VERY keen on the First Wheels City Twin which does everything I want it too but is massive when folded. I love the styling, the fact that the seats can face each way, the option to have a carrycot, the single handle so I can hold ds's hand when I ned to and still steer easily. It's also quite expensive and there aren't relly any secondhand ones about because it's so new.
The only other ones I can think of are the Jane Powertwin, or the Cosatto Duet Lite/Mothercare Hoxton/Marco Sky type. Can anyone give me the pros and cons of these or suggest any that I might have missed?
It will mainly be used for walking ds to preschool, going round the shops, going out for walks locally. It doesn't need to fit on public transport and we've got a Zafira which has a decent size boot.
All suggestions would be appreciated!
