In general, double pushchairs with 3 wheels are more comfortable for you to maneuver and manage than double pushchairs with 4 wheels.

Comfort

If you plan to utilize your buggy for long walks or jogs then you should spend more on one that can handle the rough terrain.

Some models can even be folded with the seat removed which makes them smaller when not in use.
