How to Choose the Best Double Stroller

There are many options available in the field of double strollers. To help you select the best one for your family, we consulted child development expert and mom Katie Billingsley.

Find a stroller that's fairly easy to push, fold and carry. Consider a model that is able to accommodate two car seats for infants or a toddler along with a rider board.

Safety

Choose a double car seat stroller-stroller which comes with all-terrain tires and a brake that can be operated with a hand if you want to keep the kids safe while walking. These wheels and brakes will aid you in traversing trails as well as sidewalks, gravel, and other paths without the risk of your children sliding or rolling away. The best double strollers come with plenty of storage space for gear and kids-sized items like snacks and toys.

The first step in selecting the best double stroller is to determine how old your children are and how far apart they are. A majority of double strollers are designed to can accommodate one child's seat, but those that do come in different configurations, so you can pick the type of seating that best fits your kids and your lifestyle.

Side-byside doubles are a popular option, and are great for children of similar ages who like to play with one another. Some double-decker designs allow the user to place one seat above the other, or attach a riderboard for older siblings. Newborns can be tucked into a bassinet, which is attached to the frame, or as a standalone attachment that gives you a peek-a-boo view of your baby. If you have twins or are expecting twins, a dedicated twin stroller is the best option to go.

Choose a stroller with two wheels that is capable of handling off-road terrain and even hiking. A majority of these strollers are designed with active parents in mind, and come with features that let you take your kids on any adventure, regardless of how rough the terrain or how steep the climb may be.

In addition to all-terrain tires, the top double strollers feature thoughtful features that make navigating difficult terrain and weather a lot easier. This jogging stroller, for instance, features a wrist loop, so you can ensure your child's safety while going downhill at a higher speed or in harsh weather conditions. It also features a canopy that covers the entire area and has ventilation so your kids stay cool during the summer heat.

This model is a lightweight and compact double stroller from Joovy. It weighs in at just over 23 pounds, which makes it lighter than other single strollers. It's ideal for air travel or storage in overhead compartments or trunks. It also has a large storage basket and an easy-to-use one-step parking brake.

Seating

Double strollers are now sleeker and can be configured in various ways to suit your family. Some double stroller with infant car seat strollers can be used as side-by-side models, and others, like the Baby Trend Sit 'N Stand Dual Stroller, can be used as an alternative to car seats, toddler seats and bassinets. They are available in a variety of widths and weights that can accommodate children from newborns through kindergarten.

A good double stroller should be a breeze to move and fold, while also allowing you to adjust the height of the handlebar to ensure you're comfortable throughout your outings. A well-designed handlebar is easy to grip and should encourage you to walk in a logical manner (ask for tips from other parents). It should have a range of storage options to fit everything your children need.

If your twins are of a similar age and are in the same age group, a tandem double buggy stroller might be the best option for your family. These models come with seats that are side-by-side, which means you can interact with them both and keep an eye on both of them at the same time. They also recline independently, so one child can nap and the other is ready to go.

The downside of a twin stroller can be that it is larger than a stroller designed for a single-occupant. This can make it difficult to navigate narrow double Stroller aisles in store aisles, doors or even walkways. For certain families, however, the benefits are worth the extra effort and size.

If you're looking for a compact double-stroller, then the UPPAbaby V2 Double is a great alternative. The UPPAbaby Vista Double is a great choice for urban living due to its shock absorption, sleek 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. This model is bare-bones and offers a lot of seating space and storage, as well as sturdy wheels that can handle any terrain. It also features a 50+ SPF canopy and a handlebar that can be adjusted. Some parents complain that the seats are too low and don't recline fully flat, which makes it difficult for children to reach their snacks or to relax.

User-Friendliness

Double strollers are typically an investment of a significant amount that you will use for many years. If you are looking for a double stroller, make sure it is easy to use and clean. Luckily, the most effective 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 one hand!). They are light and perfect for travel. Many of them can be checked at the gate on planes and fit into most trunks. Furthermore, the majority our testers found that their strollers folded to smaller sizes than the single double stroller seat models, and some even came with an adjustable carry strap for easy carrying.

The Valco Snap Duo trend is double stroller with lots of options that will grow with your family. This side-by-side stroller can be used with infant car seats as well as other accessories. It can be used from birth up to the age of preschool. Each seat is equipped with a five-point harness and a large canopy that gives plenty of shade from the sun.

Another option that is highly regarded is the Joovy Twin Roo. It is light compact and weighs only weighs 22 pounds when folded. The front seat reclines almost to a full flat position and the back seat comes with an adjustable recline for each child. There's a large storage basket and an easy, one-step linked parking brake that makes this stroller extremely easy to maneuver and use.

The only drawbacks to the Joovy Twin Roo were minor and specific to this particular model. Kerry says that the packaging is smart and fun, however it comes in five boxes that can be a little cumbersome to carry around. She also found the Genuis magnetic clasp a bit clunky, and it took a while before she could master it. In the end, however she was very pleased with this stroller and would definitely recommend it.

Storage

Strollers are available in various sizes and styles that include tandems (single-file seating), side-by-side doubles, and many that allow you to modify the layout using an automobile seat or bassinet attachment. Some have even added rider boards for older siblings. There are many different types of rider boards. Some are lightweight and easy to use while others are heavy, bulky and difficult to fold.

If you are looking for a lightweight stroller that can hold two kids, the Joovy Caboose Graphite is a great choice. It was the lightest option 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 for a fun outing with two kids.

The UPPAbaby Vista v2 Double is a second model that our test subjects loved, especially for its sleek design and easy to use. It can accommodate two infant car seats, a toddler seat and a bassinet. There are no adapters needed. The rear seat can be removed to make it triple or quad stroller. It comes with a large basket for storage and can be upgraded with an organizer for parents and all-terrain tires, as as storage bags for the sides.

Billingsley says that the ideal double stroller for a toddler is one that has multiple customization options, like an adjustable seat or bassinet. Toddlers can be limited in their endurance and a stroller that has an attached bassinet will give them a safe space for them to sleep. She suggests that a double stroller must also come with a sturdy harness system and recline positions, and plenty of storage space for snacks and toys.

The ZOE Twin+ is popular with parents due to its lightweight and versatility. It's gate-check-friendly on airlines and fits through the majority of doorways (without taking off the wheels at the front), and can be expanded into a quad or triple stroller by adding an extra tandem. Its nearly flat, independently reclined seats, sun canopy with extra-long lengths and adjustable footrests are further highlights, while its spacious underseat storage basket as well as the inclusion of parent and child cup holders complete the impressive list of features. Taylor says that the only downside is that it has an enormous profile when folded, and is difficult for parents to carry.
