Why You Must Experience Double Infant Stroller At Least Once In Your Lifetime
Buying a Double Infant Stroller

A double stroller gives parents of multiple kids an easy way to move their children around. The best strollers are lightweight and easy to fold and carry, fit well in a car trunk and offer versatile seating arrangements for children of various age groups.

Parents with children of a similar age may find that a side-by-side or sit-and-stand style works best to avoid sibling fights about who is allowed to ride in which car seat. We also recommend options that can accommodate two infant car seats, like the UPPAbaby Vista v2 Double.

Comfort

A comfortable stroller is key for both your toddler and baby. Select double to single buggy with cushioned seats, a large base and swiveling front wheels to smooth bumps on the road, and buckles that are easy to fasten and unfasten.

Look for a large UPF 50+ canopy to provide sun protection for both children and their parents. Footrests that can be adjusted allow your child to sit in the rear seat when they're exhausted. Some double strollers offer this option to both children, like the Safety 1st model that is the most popular.

How many seats you choose in your stroller is contingent on the weight and ages of the kids riding in it. For instance, a side by side stroller lets you keep an eye on two children at the same time which is perfect for twins or siblings close in age. However, it's typically wider than other types and can be challenging to maneuver through narrow spaces or crowded areas.

Sit-and-stand prams allow older siblings to stand up while you push a younger child in the infant car seat. It's not the best choice for babies, but it is useful for older children that can walk longer distances.

Another option is a convertible stroller that has multiple seating options and can be used as a double or single for several years. Rebecca says this kind of stroller is a good choice for parents who want to purchase a single stroller but plan to use it with two kids. It's more expensive than the top tandem choice however it will last a long time and has the best resale value 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 the other strollers we've tried however, it comes with an elegant, modern design and high-quality materials. It's compatible with UPPAbaby infant car seats, and has an adjustable handlebar that can be telescopically adjusted and easy-to-press brakes. It also comes with tires filled with foam that aren't flat, and a large storage basket.

Easy to Use

A double stroller is not an inexpensive investment, which is why parents are usually looking for an option that is easy to use. That means a broad range of features, ranging from the possibility of folding it down to the ability to adjust the height of the handlebar for different users, should be available. Certain models have multiple storage compartments that allow families to separate belongings to make it easier to access. They also come with parent consoles and organizer bags that keep phones, keys and other essentials on the ready.

A stroller must be able adapt to the changing requirements of your family as time goes by. Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double, for example, is a budget-friendly stroller with a modular system. This allows you to add another seat, convert the stroller into a triple by adding the addition of a board, or change it to a single mode by adding a bench at the rear. This flexibility can make a double stroller work for as long as you need it to.

When it comes to maneuverability, some side-byside models aren't able to turn at a whim however, many of our Lab testers appreciated the ease-of-use and maneuverability of the inline Baby Jogger City Mini GT2. This model is compatible with 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 over the other double strollers we've tested.

The UPPAbaby vist v2 double however, is sleek and stylish. It also comes with an ample basket that can hold two toddler car seats or an infant car seat along with a regular child's car seat. It can also be used by any single child until the age of three and is a smooth ride due to its foam-filled tires which are made to not go flat.

The UPPAbaby folds in half and is simple to store and transport. It's also extremely light and weighs only 18 pounds. It's also easy to open and close using a latch, and requires no tools to put together. Our Lab experts selected it as the top pick for its value, affordability and shopability, as well as its longevity.

Ease of Storage

Double strollers should be able to carry diaper bags as well as water bottles, snacks, toys and jackets for the kids and parents keys, wallets phones and other things. They must also be able to slide across different surfaces and maneuver in tight spaces. When not in use they usually have to be tucked into the trunk of a car.

To meet these needs, double strollers can be constructed in a variety of styles. They can be tandem or side-byside and can also have seats that can be removed or fixed, or be equipped with infant car seats as well as a riding board. They can be made to fit a single toddler or twins. Some are designed to be used for jogging while others can be utilized at the beach or on trails for hiking.

Modular designs are especially useful for families that need to grow with their strollers. The CYBEX Gazelle for instance allows parents to mix and blend seat units, cots, and car seats to let the stroller suitable for the entire family from infant to toddlerhood.

Other double strollers that are modular, such as the UPPAbaby Vista V2 Double can be adapted to one child with the use of baby seats or a bassinet, or a toddler by using a standing board or jump seat (sold separately). The UPPAbaby is an adaptable stroller that can be configured 30 different ways. It's great for twins, siblings, or an expanding family.

The UPPAbaby also prioritizes green and sustainability initiatives. The UPPAbaby is available in various colors and its fabrics are made out of recycled water bottles. Our test subject Raul utilized the double stroller with his 3 year old daughter and five-month-old son. He said it was simple to unpack and assemble because the components came in neatly labeled boxes, with instructions and a video code.

The UPPAbaby also has a telescoping handlebar and brakes that are operated by your thumb. The swiveling wheels at the front can assist in making more precise turns on sidewalks in cities.


Safety

Double strollers have a bad reputation as cumbersome and difficult to maneuver, the new generation of models are sleek and offer many customization options. You can find one that fits an infant car seat, making it easier to travel with two children.

If you're in the market for a double stroller that can be used side-byside or in line, ensure it is JPMA-certified to ensure it conforms to safety standards. It will also undergo regular inspections. You'll want to ensure that the suspension system offers a smooth ride for your children who are in the front seat. If your stroller comes with an armrest, make sure it's adjustable to accommodate Moms and Dads of different heights.

A canopy is another essential feature that can shield your babies from harsh sunlight or the harsh weather. The most effective canopies come with a reversible flap or transparent plastic peek-a-boo windows to allow you to monitor your children without disturbing them. Some canopies come with visors to block direct sunlight.

The ease of folding and unfolding the stroller is an important aspect to think about. Strollers that fold compactly when folded are easier to store and take up less space in the trunk of your car. Strollers that have only one button to fold the chassis are more user-friendly.

When choosing a double stroller be aware of the age gap between your children as well as the type of excursion you plan to take them on. If your children are similar in age, you could opt for a tandem stroller that is high/low to allow them to be together on outings. On the other hand, if your children have a significant age gap, you might choose a side-by-side model that gives them more privacy.

If you're going to be using your stroller with baby car seats, search for a model that is compatible with top-rated car seats and has a high attachment score. It won't have as much impact on your overall rating as the other metrics but it's an important factor to consider if you're planning on using adapters for car seats.
