    Measure your door cause both of those won#t fit thrrough my door which is just an average door. Don't underestimate how important it is to be able to get the buggy in the house and think you'll cope with it, cause it's a huge impact, especially with two smallies and if it is raining etc!!

    I prefer side by sides but my house doesn't agree

    I started out with one of these and couldn't fault it at all, it's still going strong for another minder on it's 3rd year now http://www.hellobabydirect.co.uk/pro...ir---blue.html

    Also means if a baby falls asleep in it on way back, you have to wake them up to bring in house rather than put your feet up for 10 mins with a coffee!!

    Got Out n About Nipper (old style not 360), gets through my front door, but no further but good for sleeping kids so as not to disturb them. Got mine off ebay for £60, there were loads on there when I was looking last summer, and really please with it, it's so easy to push - can do it one handed, and turn aswell. Wheels are filled with something to stop punctures.

    i'll second the jane powertwin, its the best double buggy ever. got mine off ebay for £200, best peice of equiptment ive bought and well worth it. its a pleasure to push, very light and both children get a good view of the world!

    I had the old style nipper for my twins and it was fab, and I expect to use it for minding too. I don't know much about the newer buggies but the place to look for views is twinsclub.co.uk as twin mums are MAD on pushchairs!!!!

    This gets my vote too! I have a P&T as well and much prefer the Jane for two little ones as both seats recline and the back one flat.

    i love my phil n teds! did have a side by side, but didn't like it cos when one child weighed heavier than the other, it used to be drawn to one side. My friend had a Jane, which are also very good.

    I have a Jane twin two tandem. Love it and comfy for the kids.

    Bought it so it would go through my door.........then we moved

    Need a P&T really now as I have to catch the bus to town for tots groups etc and I think it will be too big on the bus. Going to give it a try when new mindees start and if not might have to sell the twin two
    Happy to be back with the Greenies

    Definitely a Nipper 360 for me. Think I must be a bit odd as I never bring it in the house but it does fit through the door
