A Double Car Seat Stroller Is a Must-Have For Twins Or Two Young Kids<br /><br />A double stroller that has two car seats is essential for twins and children. The Joovy TwinRoo+ allows infant car seats to face either way, and comes with a stand-and-sit configuration for older children.<br /><br />Another alternative is a baby jogger, that is perfect for parents who wish to take their children for a run. Which stroller is best for you?<br /><br />Easy to Fold<br /><br />The best double strollers are easy to fold, whether trying to store them in your car or fitting them in the doorway. Most models have an lever or button that flips the seat forward and folds it up to make it a compact storage. Some models also have a handle at the top of the stroller that allows you to lift and carry the whole thing, and some even come with a built-in kickstand which holds the stroller up until you're ready to take it out again.<br /><br />If you have twins or plan to have additional children in the near future A double stroller that has two infant car seats and an add-on board is a great choice. The Baby Trend Double Snap-N-Go is a popular option. It accepts all brands of infant seats and also has seating for both children to enjoy the sights. This model does not "snap into" the car seats. Instead you utilize a strap net to secure them. The rim of the seat rests against the frame.<br /><br />If you're planning to go shopping or stroll along a sidewalk in the city, consider a stroller with front and rear wheels that lock to allow for better control over rough terrain. The parent tray has two cup holders, a protected storage area and a padded handle that has three positions for comfort and control. Some models come with an large basket that can accommodate even more equipment.<br /><br />A jogging-stroller can be a great alternative for outdoor enthusiasts. However, it can be difficult to lift and carry without a handle. Some jogging strollers come with hooks to attach an infant car seat, giving parents an additional eight months of walking time. However, this can be dangerous for babies under six months and should be discussed with your pediatrician prior to attempting. BOB Revolution Flex 3.0 Duallie and Thule Urban Glide 2 Double are lightweight folding systems that can be done with one hand. The Joovy Caboose Ultralight Graphite is also a great choice for outdoor activities. It can be used to seat one child in the main seat, or two toddler seats that can be converted to bassinet-style seating.<br /><br />Sturdy<br /><br />When families are on the go, a double stroller is an invaluable tool. It must be robust enough to navigate different surfaces smoothly including suburban sidewalks and trails in parks, and is comfortable for infants that may require a flat seat to toddlers who want to sit up and explore. Ideally, it should be able to accommodate multiple seating arrangements for children of varying ages and fit neatly in the trunk of your car.<br /><br />This versatile tandem stroller from CYBEX is a good option for all kinds of terrain. It has a recliner seat for toddlers and is compatible with an infant car seat. The footrests and legs that are adjustable keep children comfortable. Its UPF 50+ canopy, peekaboo windows and adjustable leg rests offer ample sun protection for both seats. The optional baby bouncer board allows kids to ride in either of the seats or stand on it. The harness buckles with no-rethread are among the easiest in our testing and make it simple to get them into and out.<br /><br />Despite being a double stroller, it is lightweight and compact. It also comes with plenty of storage space, including an oversized cargo net under the seats and a large basket on the top. Parents appreciate the padded handlebars and the way the seats recline, however some complain that the seat backs do not fully collapse to an entirely flat position.<br /><br />Another barebones, lightweight tandem stroller is this one from Kolcraft which weighs less than 23 lbs and can carry children up to 40 lbs per seat (80 pounds in total). It has nice-sized pop-out canopies which provide shade. They also have windows that can be opened and a self-standing fold that has a carrying strap for easy moving around and a 7-inch swivel lock front wheels and 10-inch back wheels that have suspension for a smooth and comfortable ride.<br /><br /><a href="https://www.pushchairsandprams.uk/categories/double-pushchairs">lightweight twin buggy www.pushchairsandprams.uk</a> -friendly double stroller is the lightest frame that we've test, and it's ideal for families with two children of similar age. It's not compatible with infant car seats but it can still fit two of the top-rated convertible car seats and comes with an excellent cup holder for both riders. The seats come with an easy-to-use harness that doesn't require rethreading. It's and easy to secure and the ample undercarriage storage is easily accessible without disturbing your passengers.<br /><br />Convenient Storage<br /><br />The amount of storage a stroller provides is crucial especially when you're carrying around two kids and their supplies. Some of our favorites such as the UPPAbaby V2 Double and Baby Trend Sit N' Stand Double Stroller and 2 Car Seats bundle, offer plenty of storage, including a large basket that can accommodate the kids' snacks as well as adult gear. The UPPAbaby's one hand folding is easy and doesn't cause back pain.<br /><br />Other models, such as the Joovy TwinRoo+ Car Seat Frame Double Stroller has less space but offer decent range of features for a cheap price. This model works with 23 different infant car seats and cradles each one, which is a huge advantage compared to other twin frames that fix cars to the frame and aren't designed to last as long as the infant car seat itself.<br /><br />Parents of twins often choose a tandem stroller which can accommodate both infant car seats simultaneously. However these strollers are more expensive and last less when the children get older. For a more budget-friendly option that will still work when your twins get bigger and develop, consider an option that is designed to transport both car seats and has two canopy options as well as a convenient parent tray with cup holders.<br /><br />It is essential that your stroller is able to handle the weight and the movement your children will be carrying however, you also want them to sit comfortably. Our test participants looked for padding, good shoulder height strap adjustment, and simple buckles that do not require two hands to operate. Some models, like the UPPAbaby Vista V2 or Evenflo Pivot Xpand have reclined seats that allow children to relax in a comfy position. Others, like the Joovy Cabose Ultralight Graphite or Graco Duet have seats with only a few reclining options.<br /><br />Another thing to think about is the location and number of sunshades. Some models, such as the UPPAbaby Vista v2 or Evenflo Pivot have two canopy options to cover both seats. Others, such as the Joovy Caboose or Graco Duet have one canopy that includes windows for the rear passenger. This is a great option if your kids tend to sleep in the same position but it's important to remember that they will only have limited coverage when the window is opened.<br /><br /><br /><br />Confortable<br /><br />The most important feature of strollers is the ease of use. Choose a seat that is large enough for both children and also has recline positions. The canopy should provide enough shade, and the tray for parents should have two cup holders. Other features that are useful include locking front wheels and a parent organizer with snacks and diaper bags.<br /><br />The top double strollers for cars also have safety features to make your child feel secure. Choose a model with 5-point harness that secures your child at the hips and shoulders, the most rigid parts of their body. This shifts the force of an accident away from the abdomen to the seat, making this kind of restraint much safer than a simple lap belt.<br /><br />It is also important to consider how the stroller will fit in your home. Most parents have a limited amount of storage space, so make sure that the stroller will fit into your trunk or closet before you buy it. You should also determine the width of all doors that you'll need to pass through with the stroller opened. The standard doorways are between 30 to 36 inches wide. However some are wider.<br /><br />Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double is an excellent budget-friendly choice. It offers two infant car seats, and two modified toddler seats that can be placed either forward or backward. This model is comparable with some of the higher-end double strollers. However, it's more affordable for growing families. Its fold-up feature that is activated by one hand and a front foot break offer easy maneuvering, while a padded 3-position handle accommodates mom or dad. Under the large cargo basket is a handy access compartment in the rear for larger items. The swivels on the front and back are equipped with suspension to ensure smooth riding in all terrains. Additionally, the harness that is not rethread allows you to quickly and easily to secure your child's seat belts. It can be washed in the washing machine, and easy to spot clean.<br /><br />
