Buying a Double Infant Stroller

A double stroller gives parents of multiple kids a comfortable way to get their children around. The best models are reasonably lightweight and easy to fold and carry and fit nicely in a car trunk and provide a variety of seating arrangements for children of varying age groups.

Parents of children who are close to age may find a side-by-side or sit-and-stand style works best to avoid sibling squabbles over who rides in which seat. We also like the options that can accommodate two infant car seats, like the UPPAbaby Vista V2 Double.

Comfort

It is essential that your baby and toddler are at ease in the stroller. Select a stroller with padded seats and swiveling wheels at the front to smooth out bumps on the road. Also, pick one with buckles that can be easily unfastened and fastened.

You can also look for an ample UPF 50+ canopy that provides sun protection and ample coverage for both kids. Another feature that is comfortable is the adjustable footrests that allow your child to stand in the back seat if they are tired. Some double strollers provide this option to both children, like the Safety 1st model that is the best seller.

The number of seats in your stroller will depend on the weight and age of the children using it. A side-by-side baby stroller lets you to watch two children at once, making it ideal for twins or siblings of the same age. However, it's generally wider than other models and may be difficult to maneuver through narrow spaces or in crowded areas.

On the other hand, a stand-and-sit stroller gives older siblings the chance to stand while you push your younger child in a car seat for infants. It's not the ideal choice for babies, but it is beneficial for older children who can walk longer distances.

Another alternative is a convertible stroller, which offers multiple seating arrangements and can be used as a double or a single for several years. Rebecca says this type of stroller is a good choice for parents who want to purchase one stroller, but want to use it with two kids. It's more expensive than the top tandem choice but it will last for an extended period of time and comes with a great resale price, 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 but it does have a sleek design and high-quality material. It is compatible with UPPAbaby car seats and comes with a telescoping bar and easy-to press brakes. It comes with foam-filled wheels that won't flatten and a large storage bin.

Simple to Use

A double stroller is an expensive investment. Parents are looking for models that are simple to use. That means a wide range of features, from the ability to fold it compactly to adjusting the height of the handlebar to accommodate different users, must be available. Some models come with more than one storage compartment that allow families to divide up belongings for quick access, as well as organizer bags for parents or parent consoles to keep phone, keys, and other essentials in reach.

A stroller should be able to adapt to the changing requirements of your family over time. For instance, a cost-effective option such as the Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double includes an adjustable system that allows you to add a second seat, convert it into a triple using the rideboard, or change to a single mode by using a rear bench. This flexibility can make double strollers work for as long as you need it to.

In terms of maneuverability, many side-by-side models are difficult to maneuver, however our Lab testers were pleasantly surprised by 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 various age groups. The telescoping handles and simple-to-use brakes allow it to be more mobile than other double strollers we evaluated.

On the other hand, the UPPAbaby Vist v2 Double has an elegant design and a huge storage basket that can hold two car seats for toddlers or one infant car seat in addition to an ordinary child seat. It can also be used by any single child until the age of three and offers a smooth ride thanks to its foam-filled tires that are made to not go flat.

Additionally to that, the UPPAbaby is light at only 18 pounds and folds in half for a sleek package that's easy to carry and store. It's also easy to open and re-close with an latch, and requires no tools to put together. It was a top pick from our Lab experts for its durability and shopability as well as its affordability.

Ease of Storage

Double strollers should be able hold diaper bags jackets, water bottles, and other items along with the keys, wallets and phones of parents. They also need to be able to glide across different surfaces and maneuver through tight spaces. When not in use they usually have to be tucked into the trunk of a car.

Double strollers are available in a variety of designs to meet the needs of parents. They can be side-byside or tandem, with fixed or removable seats, or with an infant car seats and a riding board. They can also be designed to fit a single toddler or newborn, or twins. Some are designed for running while others are utilized at the beach or on hiking trails.

Modular designs are particularly helpful for families that need to grow into their strollers. The CYBEX Gazelle S for instance, is designed to allow parents to mix and match their seat units, cot attachments and car seats, so that the stroller is able to serve the entire family from birth to toddlerhood.

Other modular double strollers such as the UPPAbaby Vista V2 Double, can be adapted for a single child through the use of a baby seat or bassinet or a toddler's with an elevated seat or standing board (sold separately). The versatile UPPAbaby can be configured in a variety of ways, making it suitable for twins or siblings, or even growing families.

The UPPAbaby is also renowned for its green initiatives and it is a proponent of sustainability. The UPPAbaby is available in many colors, and the fabrics are made from recycled water bottles. In our testing, our test participant Raul used the double stroller with his three year old daughter and five-month-old son. He said it was simple to unpack and assemble because the components were neatly labeled boxes, which had instructions and a video code.

Another amazing aspect of the UPPAbaby is its telescoping handlebar and brakes that are one-handed and can be operated with only your thumb. And its swiveling front wheels can help it make tight turns on city sidewalks.

Safety

double umbrella stroller strollers are a bit of a bad reputation as cumbersome and difficult to maneuver, the latest generation of strollers are sleek and come with a range of customization options. You can even find one that is compatible with the car seat of your infant which makes it more convenient to go out and about with two children in the stroller.

If you're in the market for a side-by-side or an in-line double stroller, ensure that it's JPMA certified to ensure it meets minimum safety standards and undergoes regular inspections. You'll also want to choose a suspension system that provides an easy ride and doesn't cause bumps or jostling for your little ones in the front seat. And if your stroller has a handlebar, make sure that it is adjustable to accommodate parents and dads of various heights.

A canopy can shield your child from harsh sunlight and harsh weather. The most effective canopies come with a reversible flap or transparent plastic windows that peek-a-boo to let you monitor your children without causing any disturbance to them. Some canopies also come with visors that block direct sunlight.

The ease of folding and unfolding the stroller is another important aspect to take into consideration. Strollers that fold compactly when folded are easier to store and take less space in the trunk of your car. Also, strollers that have only one button to release the hand that folds the chassis much easier to use.

When deciding on a double stroller, consider the age difference between your children as well as the type of trip you're planning to take the strollers on. If your children are close in age you may choose a tandem high/low stroller in order to allow them to be together on outings. On the other side, if your kids have a large age gap, you might choose a side-by-side model that gives them more privacy.

If you're planning to use your stroller for baby car seats, choose a model with a high attachment score and that is compatible with top-rated brands. This will not have as much of an impact on the overall rating as other metrics but is still important if you plan to use car seat adapters.
