How to Choose the Best Double Stroller

There are a variety of options when it comes to double strollers. To help you select the right one for your family, we spoke with child development expert and mom Katie Billingsley.

You should look for a stroller that is easy to fold and push, as well as carry. Also, consider a stroller that's versatile enough to accommodate two infant car seats or a toddler as well as a rider board.

Safety

Choose a double-stroller which has all-terrain wheels and a brake that is operated by hand if want to keep the kids safe while walking. These wheels and brakes aid you in traversing trails as well as sidewalks, gravel, and other paths without the risk of your children sliding or slipping away. The best double strollers have plenty of storage space for gear and kid-sized essentials like snacks and toys.

The best double stroller for your family starts by determining how old and distant in terms of age your children are. A majority of double strollers can only accommodate one child seat. However, those that do come with a variety of configurations that allow you to select the seating option that's best for your family.


The classic doubles are great for children of similar ages who want to play. Double-decker designs permit you to put one of the seats over the other, or even attach an additional riderboard for older siblings. Babies can be sat in a bassinet that is attached to the frame or in an attachment that lets you look at your baby. If you are expecting twins or already have twins and want to have a twin stroller, it is the best choice.

For families that are more adventurous opt for double strollers that can handle off-road terrain or even hike. A lot of these strollers were designed with active parents and their children in mind. They have features that will allow you to take them on any adventure, no matter how rough or high the climbs might be.

The top double strollers come with thoughtful features to make it easier to navigate through difficult terrain and in bad weather. For example this jogging stroller comes with a wrist loop for your child so you can be sure that they're safe when you run downhill or at faster speeds. It also comes with a full-coverage canopy that is ventilated to keep your kids cool during the summer heat.

If you're looking for a light compact double stroller, take a look at this model by Joovy. It weighs just 23 pounds, which makes it lighter than other single strollers and perfect for air travel or storage in overhead compartments or trunks. It also has a large storage basket and a simple one-step parking brake.

Seating

Double strollers today are sleeker and can be set up in many ways to meet the needs of your family. Some double strollers can be used as side-byside models, while others, such as the Baby Trend Sit 'N Stand Dual Stroller, can be used as a base for car seats, toddlers seats and bassinets. They are available in a variety of sizes and weight limits, allowing children from birth to kindergarten.

A good double stroller should be easy to fold and move and allows you to adjust the height of your handlebar to ensure you are comfortable on all of your outings. A well-designed handlebar should be easy to grip, and it should allow you to walk with proper form (ask other parents for tips on this). It should also have a variety of storage options that accommodate all the essentials you'll need for your children.

If your twins are close in age, you might discover that a tandem stroller is best for your family. These models have seats that are side-by-side so you can talk to them each other and keep an eye on each of them at the same time. They can also recline separately so that one child can nap while the other is awake and ready to go.

The disadvantage of a twin stroller may be that it's wider than a model that is designed for a single occupant. This makes it difficult to maneuver narrow doorways, store aisles or even the sidewalks. For some families, the advantages are worth the extra space and effort.

If you're looking for a small double-stroller, then the UPPAbaby V2 Double is an excellent option. The UPPAbaby Vista Double is an excellent choice for city living thanks to its shock absorption, elegant design, and ability to accommodate two infant car seats. It also comes with an optional running board that can be used by older children who are mobile.

double single pushchair -style double stroller, such as the Delta Children LX Stroller Side-by-Side is another option. This model is bare-bones and offers plenty of seating space and storage, as well as robust wheels that can handle any terrain. It also comes with an umbrella with 50+ SPF and adjustable handlebars. Some parents complain that the seats are too low and can't recline completely to a flat position, making it difficult for smaller children to sit comfortably or reach their snack trays.

Ease of Use

A double stroller is often an investment you're hoping to use for years. If you are in the market for a double stroller, make sure it's easy to use and clean. Luckily, the top double strollers are designed to be as user-friendly as possible and include a variety of convenient features for parents.

For starters, all of the strollers we tested folded easily and compactly (with just one hand!). They're also lightweight, making them ideal for travel. They can fit in the majority of trunks and can be gate-checked on airplanes. Furthermore, the majority our test subjects found that their strollers folded down to smaller sizes than their single-seat counterparts and some even included a carry strap for convenient carrying.

If you're looking for a flexible double stroller that can adapt to your family's needs Look no further than the Valco Snap Duo Trend. This side-byside stroller is compatible with infant car seats as well as other accessories. It can be used from birth up to the age of preschool. Each seat features five points of harness, a large canopy and ample sun protection.

Another option that is highly regarded is the Joovy Twin Roo. This stroller is lightweight and compact, weighing only 22 pounds when folded. The front seat reclines almost to a full flat position and the back seat has an adjustable recline for every child. This stroller is easy to maneuver and use thanks to its large storage basket, easy one-step parking brake and large storage basket.

The only downsides of the Joovy Twin Roo were minor and specific to the model in question. Kerry notes that the packaging was enjoyable and clever, however it also came in five boxes that could be trouble to carry around. She also found the Genuis magnetic clasp to be somewhat difficult to use, and it took her a while before she could get it to work. In the end, though, she was very happy with her stroller and would definitely recommend it.

Stores

Strollers come in a variety of shapes and sizes, from tandem doubles that are side-by-side to (single-file seating) designs, and many allow you to personalize your layout with a bassinet or car seat attachment. Some have rider boards that can be added for older siblings. However, not all of them are created equal -- some are elegant and simple to use, while others are bulky, heavy and difficult to fold or stow.

If you're looking for a lightweight double stroller, take a look at the Joovy Caboose Ultralight Graphite. It was the lightest stroller we tested in our tests, with a weight of less than 23 pounds. It folds easily and has all the features parents would want for a fun day out with two kids.

The UPPAbaby Vista v2 Double is a different model that our test subjects loved especially for its sleek design and user-friendly. It can accommodate two infant car seats, or a toddler's bassinet and seat without adapters, and its rear seat can be removed to make it into a quad or triple stroller. It comes with a large basket for storage, and it can be upgraded by adding a parent organizer and all-terrain tires, as well as side storage bags.

Billingsley states that the best double stroller for a two-year-old is one that supports multiple customization options, like an adjustable seat or bassinet. Toddlers are often restricted in their endurance, so strollers with a bassinet attached will provide a safe place for them to sleep. She suggests that a double stroller should also come with a sturdy harness system and recline positions, as well as plenty of storage room for toys and snacks.

The ZOE Twin+ is popular among parents due to its light weight and flexibility. It's airline gate-check-friendly, fits through most doors (without taking off the front wheels) and expands into a triple or quad stroller with an add-on tandem seat. The nearly flat, independently reclined seats and the extra-long sun canopies that are adjustable are other highlights. A spacious underseat basket and the inclusion of cup holders for the child and parent make up the impressive set of features. The one downside according to Taylor the manufacturer, is that it doesn't have the smallest profile when folded and can be difficult to stow.
