Manoeuvrability
One of the most important things to take into consideration when selecting a small double buggy is its manoeuvrability, particularly how it is easy to move around with both children on board. Some pushchairs, such as the iCandy Orange with its 'cinema seating' (where the back seat is elevated) are better than others.
