How to Choose the Best Double Stroller There are many options available when it comes to double strollers. To help you pick the right one for your family, we spoke with the expert in child development and mom Katie Billingsley. You should choose a stroller that is easy to fold and push, as well as carry. Consider a model that can accommodate two infant car seats or a toddler along with an adult rider board. Safety If you want to keep your kids safe on your walks opt for a double stroller that has features like all-terrain tires and an electronic brake that can be operated by hand. These wheels and brake aid you in traversing trails or sidewalks without the risk of your children sliding or slipping away. The best double strollers come with plenty of storage space for equipment and essentials for kids like snacks and toys. The first step in choosing the best double stroller is to figure out the age of your children and how far apart they are. A majority of double strollers are designed to can accommodate one child's seat, however, those that do come in various configurations so that you can choose the seating option that best fits your kids and your lifestyle. Side-by-side doubles are an iconic option, and they're great for children of similar ages who want to interact with each other. Double-decker designs permit you to put one of the seats over the other, or even attach an additional riderboard for older siblings. Newborns can be snuggled into a bassinet, which is attached to the frame, or as an individual attachment that offers the chance to peek at your baby. If you are expecting twins or already have twins, then a twin stroller will be the best option. For families that are more adventurous consider a double stroller that is able to handle off-road terrain or even hiking. A lot of these strollers were developed with active parents and their children in mind. They have features that will let you take them on any trip, no matter how rough or high the climbs are. In addition to all-terrain tires, the top double strollers come with clever features that make traversing difficult terrain and weather a lot easier. This jogging stroller, for instance, comes with a wrist loop, so you can ensure your child's safety while going downhill at a higher speed or in extreme weather conditions. It also features a canopy that covers the entire area and has ventilation so your kids stay comfy in the summer heat. This model is a lightweight and compact double stroller from Joovy. It weighs less than 23 pounds., making it ideal for air travel and storage in trunks or overhead compartments. Additionally, it comes with an enormous storage basket as well as a one-step linked parking brake that's easy to use. Seating Pushchairs And Prams are now more sleek and can be arranged in a variety of ways to meet the needs of your family. Some of them function as traditional side-byside strollers while others—such as the Baby Trend Sit 'N Stand Double Stroller—work as a base to which car seats, toddler seats or bassinets can be plugged into. They are available in a range of widths and weights that can accommodate children from newborns up to kindergarten. A quality double stroller should be easy to fold and move and allows you to adjust the height of your handlebar to ensure that you feel at ease on all your excursions. A great handlebar should be easy to hold and should invite you to walk in a proper posture (ask other parents for tips on this). It should also provide a variety of storage options that will accommodate everything you need for your children. If your twins are of a similar age, a tandem stroller may be the best option for your family. The seats of these models sit side by side, enabling you to be able to interact with both of them and keep an eye on them at the same time. They can also recline independently which means that one child can sleep while the other is ready to go. The disadvantage of twin strollers is that it can be more spacious than a model with a single occupant which makes it difficult to maneuver around walkways, aisles for shopping, and narrow doorways. But for certain families, the benefits are worth the extra space and effort. If you are looking for a compact double-stroller then the UPPAbaby V2 Double is a good option. The UPPAbaby Vista V2 Double is an excellent choice for city dwellers due to its shock absorption, elegant design, and ability to accommodate two infant car seats. It also has an optional running board that can be used by older children who are mobile. A wagon-style double stroller like the Delta Children LX Stroller Side-by-Side is another alternative. The model is basic but it comes with plenty of space for storage and seating. It also has heavy-duty wheels to tackle any terrain. It also has a 50+ SPF canopy and adjustable handlebars. Some parents complain that the seats are too low and do not recline fully flat, making it difficult for little children to reach their snacks or get comfortable. User-Friendliness Double strollers are typically a large investment that you will be using for a long time. If you are in the market for a double stroller, make sure it's easy to use and clean. The top double strollers have been designed to be easy-to-use and come with many useful features. For starters, all of the strollers we tested folded easily and compactly (with one hand!). They are also light and are ideal for traveling. A lot of them fit into the majority of trunks and can be gate-checked on airplanes. In addition, the majority of our testers found that their strollers folded to smaller sizes than their single-seat counterparts, and some even came with an adjustable carry strap for easy carrying. The Valco Snap Duo trend is a double stroller with many options that will grow with your family. This side-by-side stroller can be used with infant car seats and other accessories. It can be used from birth to the age of preschool. Each seat features a 5-point harness with a large canopy, as well as plenty of sun protection. Another option that is highly regarded is the Joovy Twin Roo. This stroller is lightweight compact and weighs only 22 lbs when folded. The front seat reclines almost to a flat position, and the back seat can be adjusted to suit each child. The stroller is simple to operate and maneuver due to its large storage basket, simple parking brake that is one step and a large storage basket. The only drawbacks of the Joovy Twin Roo are minor and specific to this model. Kerry says that the packaging is smart and fun, but it comes in five boxes which could be a bit cumbersome to carry around. She also found the Genuis magnetic clasp to be a bit clunky, and it took her a while before she was able to master it. She was happy with the stroller in the end and would highly recommend it. Storage Strollers come with a variety of sizes and shapes, ranging from side-by-side doubles to tandem (single-file seating) designs, and many allow you to customize your stroller with a bassinet or car seat attachment. Some have rider boards which can be added for older siblings. But, they're not all made equal. Some are sleek and easy to use, whereas others are bulky, heavy and difficult to fold or store. If you're looking for a stroller that is light that can hold two kids The Joovy Caboose Graphite is a great choice. It was the lightest choice during our tests. It weighs close to 23 lbs and is also easy to fold, yet it still has all of the features parents require to have a great time out with two kids. The UPPAbaby Vista v2 Double is a different model that our test subjects loved particularly for its sleek design and easy to use. It can accommodate two infant car seats or a toddler's seat and a bassinet without the need for adapters, and its rear seat can be removed to make it into a quad or triple stroller. It has a huge storage basket and can be upgraded to include an organizer for parents with wheels for all-terrain and side storage bags. Billingsley says that the best double stroller for a toddler is one that has multiple customization options, like the ability to remove a seat or a bassinet. Toddlers are typically limited in their endurance and strollers with an attached bassinet will provide a safe place for them to rest. She suggests that a double stroller should have a good harness system and recline positions, and plenty of storage space for snacks and toys. The ZOE Twin+ is popular with parents due to its light weight and flexibility. It is airline gate-check friendly, fits through most doorways (without removing the wheels on the front), and can be made into a quad or triple stroller by adding an additional tandem. The nearly flat, independently reclined seats and extra-long sun canopy that can be adjusted are other highlights. A large underseat basket, as well as cup holders for the child and parent make up this impressive feature set. One drawback, according to Taylor, is that it doesn't have an elongated profile when folded, and could be difficult to store.
