Buying a Double Infant Stroller A double stroller is a convenient option for parents to take multiple children. The best models are lightweight and easy to fold and carry and fit nicely in the trunk of a car and offer versatile seating arrangements for children of various ages. Parents of children who are close to age may find that a side-by-side or sit-and-stand design is the best to avoid sibling squabbles over who rides in which car seat. We also recommend options that allow two infant car seats, such as the UPPAbaby Vista V2 Double. Comfort A stroller that is comfortable is essential for both your toddler and baby. Choose double travel buggy that has padded seats, a wide base and swiveling front wheels to smooth out bumps in the road, and buckles that are simple to unfasten and fasten. You can also look for a generous, UPF 50+ canopy that offers sun protection as well as plenty of coverage for both kids. Adjustable footrests let your child to stand up in the rear seat if they're exhausted. Some double strollers, such as the most popular model from Safety 1st, offer this option for both children. The number of seats you can have in your stroller will be determined by the weight and age of the children who will be using it. For instance, a side-by-side stroller allows you to keep an eye on both children at the same time which is perfect for twins or siblings that are close in age. It's larger than other models and may be difficult to maneuver in crowded or narrow areas. A sit-and-stand pram allows older siblings to stand while you push a smaller child in the infant car seat. It's not the best option for infants, but it can be a good fit once your kiddos are around three years old and can walk for longer distances. Another option is a convertible stroller which offers multiple seating arrangements and can be used as a double or single for a long time. Rebecca says this kind of stroller is an excellent option for parents who only want to buy one stroller but want to use it with two kids. "It's more expensive than our top tandem choice, but it will last for a long time, has great potential for resales and is extremely versatile," she says. This stroller by UPPAbaby is a double stroller that converts into a single or a toddler-and-RumbleSeat configuration. It's not as compact as some other options however it has an elegant design and top-quality material. It's compatible with UPPAbaby infant car seats, and comes with a telescoping handlebar as well as easy-to-press brakes. It comes with wheels that are filled with foam that won't break and a large storage bin. Easy of Use A double stroller can be an expensive investment. Parents are looking for models that are simple to use. It should include a variety of features like the ability to fold the stroller in a compact manner and adjust the handlebar height to accommodate different users. Some models also have more than one storage space to allow families to divide items for quick access, as well as organizer bags or consoles for parents to keep phones, keys and other items in reach. A stroller can be adjusted to the changing needs of your family over the years also. Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double, for example is a budget-friendly stroller that includes a modular system. It allows you to add another seat, convert the stroller into a triple with the addition of a board, or change it into a single mode by adding a bench in the rear. This flexibility can make double strollers last as long as you need it to. In terms of maneuverability, a lot of side-by-side models are difficult to maneuver, but our Lab testers were impressed with the ease of use and maneuverability of the Baby Jogger City Mini GT2. This model is compatible with all of our top-rated car seats for infants and can be used by twins or children of different age groups. The telescoping handlebar and easy-to-use brakes make it easier to maneuver than other double strollers we tested. The UPPAbaby vist v2 double, however, is sleek and stylish. It also comes with a large basket that can accommodate two toddler car seats or an infant car seat with a regular child's car seat. It can also be used by a single child up to three years old and is a smooth ride due to its foam-filled tires that are made to not go flat. Additionally, the UPPAbaby is super light at just 18 pounds and folds down in half for a sleek package that is easy to transport and store. It's also simple to close and open using an latch, and needs no tools for assembling. Our Lab experts picked it as the top pick for its affordability and shopability, as well as its longevity. Simple of Storage Double strollers should be able hold diaper bags as well as water bottles and jackets along with the keys, wallets and phones of parents. They also need to be able to glide over different surfaces and maneuver in tight spaces. They often need to be able to fit in the trunk of a car, so they should be simple to fold and compact when not when not in use. Double strollers come in many different styles to meet these needs. They can be side-by-side or tandem with removable or fixed seats, or with an infant car seats and a rideboard. They can also be designed to accommodate a single newborn or toddler, or twins. Some are designed to be used for jogging while others can be used on beaches or on hiking trails. Modular designs are especially useful for families who want to expand their strollers. The CYBEX Gazelle S, for example is designed to allow parents to mix and match their seat units, cot attachments, and car seats, so that the stroller can be used by the family from birth through toddlerhood. Other modular double strollers like the UPPAbaby Vista V2 Double can be converted to one child using the bassinet or baby seat or a toddler using an elevated board or jump seat (sold separately). The UPPAbaby is a flexible stroller that can be configured 30 different ways. It's great for twins, siblings or a growing family. The UPPAbaby is also a proponent of green and sustainability initiatives. The UPPAbaby is available in a variety of colors, and its fabrics are made from recycled water bottles. Our test subject Raul used the double stroller with his three-year old daughter and five-month-old son. He found it easy to unpack the parts and put them together because they came in neatly-labeled boxes with video and instructions. Another excellent characteristic of the UPPAbaby its telescoping handlebar and brakes that operate with one hand and can be operated using only your thumb. Its swiveling front wheels can help it make tight turns on sidewalks in cities. Safety Double strollers have received a bad rap for being bulky and difficult to maneuver, the latest generation of models are sleek and offer many customization options. You can find one that is compatible with an infant car seat to make it easier to travel with two children. If you're in the market for a side-byside or in-line double stroller, be sure it's JPMA certified to ensure it meets the minimum safety standards and passes regular inspections. You'll also want to look for suspension systems that provide smooth riding and doesn't create bumps or jolting for your children in the front seat. If your stroller has an adjustable handlebar, make sure it's adjustable so that both parents can use it. A canopy can protect your child from harsh sunlight and inclement weather. The best canopies come with a reversible window or a transparent plastic peek-aboo that lets you observe your child without causing any disturbance. Certain canopies come with visors that block the direct sun. Another important factor to consider is how easy the stroller folds and unfolds. Strollers that fold compactly when folded are more convenient to store and take up less space in the trunk of your car. Strollers that come with one button to fold the chassis are also more user-friendly. When deciding on a double stroller to buy be aware of the age gap between your children and the type of excursion you plan to take with them. If your children are similar in age, you can opt for a tandem high/low stroller to allow them to be together when outings. On the other hand, if your children have a significant age gap it is possible to choose a side-by-side model that gives them more privacy. If you're planning on using your stroller with baby car seats, search for a model that integrates with the top-rated car seat brands and has good attachment scores. This won't have as big of an impact on your overall rating as the other factors but it's an important aspect to take into consideration if you're thinking of using adapters for car seats.
