There are two types of double buggies that have three wheels, based on the number of children you'll be carrying: side-by-side or front-facing.

Some tandem buggies can be used to accommodate twins, a baby and toddler or a child with a newborn due to their clever seating configurations.

It's only downside is it's a bit harder to handle on uneven ground than other models.

Comfort

If you're planning to use your buggy for long walks or for jogging it's worth investing in one that can take on rough terrain. Choose a model with three wheels with large rear wheels that can take the bumps and have a suspension system to absorb shocks. The front wheels should be securing optimally to give you better control on difficult terrain, and also to enable you to push through corners.

Some models fold with the seats removed, which makes them smaller when not being used.
