I found it a breeze to lift up and down steps and onto a train platform, although with lots of steps you’d definitely need a helping hand. Our MFM parent tester Pam was able to get it easily through the front door, but struggled to get it through her internal doors. Okay, so you wouldn’t be able to push it up and down a train carriage but it proved no problem navigating tighter doorways. MFM parent tester Pam also tested the buggy on different terrains and found even on bumpy paths, it still felt smooth, sturdy and balanced.Īs double buggies go, this is about as narrow as it gets (75x31圆1.5cm) meaning it fits into tight gaps very easily.

MFM parent tester Francesca used the buggy with her 21-month-old twins who liked that the leg rests can be adjusted.
