There are two kinds of double buggy with 3 wheels, depending on the number of children you'll be carrying: side-by-side and front-facing. Side-by-side buggies are smaller than front-facing ones, however they tend to have a larger footprint. Mountain Buggy Duet is one of the most innovative models available.

If you're planning to use your buggy for long jogs or walks, it's worth spending more on one that can handle the rough terrain.
