Looking to buy twin pushchair for new baby and 21 month old

I'm due this summer and my son will be 21 months so will need the double pushchair. But I could do with some advice on which ones are good and which are bad.

I like the look of the Jane Powertwin and the Nipper 360. Does anyone have any pros/cons with these two? I know the Nipper gets great reviews but have seen bad things as well, like it is too backheavy and too wide. Any comments or suggestions for any others to look at would be great.

Also, I would like to go have a look at some but most places seem to only stock one or two types. Does anyone know of stockist in the Herts/Essex area where you can go have a look at several brands?

Thanks

All I can say is don't get a Mama's and Papa's twin Aria. Whilst it is very light and narrow enough for most doorways bits keep falling off it and the shopping basket is next to useless - very annoying.

jane powertwin gets very heavy when the baby isn't a baby anymore iykwim.

p&t is fantastic. the baby gets to lie flat for those first few months when they need to, by the time they are sitting up, your 21 month old will be in and out of the buggy all the time so the second seat is perfect.

don't get a side by side, in a few months you will find your toddler is walking half the time and you are trying to negotiate a massive wide pushchair (with one seat empty)and hold his hand. at least with the P&T you can jsut take off the second seat, or use it to carry all the shopping like i do. "out you get darling, you have to walk, the shopping needs your seat!"
