Well after only 2 weeks minding I have now tried 3 pushchairs (doubles) and have problems of one kind or another with all of them. Am thinking about getting a P&T, seem some good bargains on secondhand ones but the one thing that worries me is: Is it not dangerous for the one in the bottom regarding getting their fingers trapped in the spokes of the wheels???
I currently have to use a buggy for a 2yr old and a 15mth old. Would a P&T be suitable for this age group???
Thanks

My twins went into mine at 14 months - no trapped fingers in the 2 and a half years they were in it.

Use it with twin two year olds, one in back does touch the wheel guard, i always know because it makes a noise as he pushes it down but he has never hurt his fingers yet. The only worrying thing for me was the other week i put the brake on and he managed to pull both sides and got brake off.

If you get the V2 model they are built in, it's only the older models you need to apply for them but they are free as has been already said :)
