How to Choose the Best Double Stroller

If you're looking for a double stroller there are plenty of options. To help you choose the most suitable one for your family, we consulted the expert in child development and mom Katie Billingsley.

Find a stroller that's fairly easy to fold, push and carry. Consider a model that can hold two infant car seat or a toddler who has a riderboard.

Safety

If you want to ensure your children are secure on your walks make sure you choose a double stroller that has features like all-terrain tires and a brake operated by hand.

The classic doubles are great for children of similar ages that are keen to interact. Some models have a double-decker design, allowing the user to place one of the seats above the other or add a rider board for older siblings. Newborns can either be snuggled in a bassinet that is attached to the frame, or in an attachment that lets you peek-a-boo at your baby. If you have twins or are expecting twins, a specially designed twin stroller is the best option to go.

Look for a double-wheeled stroller that is capable of handling off-road terrain as well as hiking. A lot of these strollers were designed with active parents in mind and include features that let you take your kids to any adventure, no matter how rough the road or how steep the climbs might be.

This model is a compact and compact double stroller from Joovy. It weighs less than 23 lbs. This makes it perfect for air travel and storage in trunks or overhead compartments. Additionally, it comes with a huge storage basket and a parking brake that is linked in one step that is simple to use.

Seating

Contrary to the giant strollers of the past these double strollers are sleek and can accommodate an array of configurations that can be adapted to families. Some work as traditional side-by-side strollers, while others -- like the Baby Trend Sit 'N Stand Double Stroller--work as a base for car seats, toddler seats or bassinets can be plugged into.

A quality double stroller should be easy to fold and maneuver and allows you to adjust the height of your handlebar to ensure that you're comfortable throughout your excursions. A good handlebar is comfortable to hold and will encourage you to walk in a logical manner (ask for advice from other parents). It should also provide various storage options that accommodate everything you need for your kids.

If your twins are similar age and are in the same age group, a tandem stroller might be the best option for your family. The seats of these models sit side by side, enabling you to interact with them both and keep an eye on them at the same time. They also recline independently, so that one child can sleep while the other is awake and ready to go.

The downside of a twin stroller could be that it is larger than a stroller designed for a single to double pushchair-occupant. This makes it difficult to navigate narrow doorways, store aisles, or sidewalks. For certain families, the advantages are worth the extra size and effort.

If you're in the market for a compact double stroller (see this page), the UPPAbaby Vista V2 Double is a great option. The UPPAbaby Vista V2 Double is a great choice for urban living due to its shock absorption, sleek design, and capacity 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, such as the Delta Children LX Stroller Side-by-Side is another alternative. This model is bare-bones and offers lots of space for seating and storage space, along with sturdy wheels that can handle any terrain. It also comes with a canopy with 50+ SPF and adjustable handlebars. Some parents complain that the seats are too low and do not recline fully flat, making it hard for small children to reach their snack trays or relax.

Ease of Use

Double strollers are typically a large investment that you will be using for a long time. If you are looking for a double stroller, be sure it is easy to use and clean. The top double strollers are designed to be user-friendly and have many convenient features.

For starters, all the strollers we tested folded easily and compactly (with just one hand!). They are also light and are ideal for traveling. A lot of them can be checked at the gate on planes and fit into most trunks. Many of our test subjects discovered that their strollers could be folded down smaller than the single and double stroller seat equivalents. Some even had a carry strap.

The Valco Snap Duo trend is 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 up to the age of preschool. Each seat features a 5-point harness and a large canopy. It also offers plenty of sun protection.

Another option that is highly regarded is the Joovy Twin Roo. It is light and extremely compact, measuring just 22 pounds and 26 inches wide when it's folded. The front seat reclines almost to a flat position and the back seat can be adjusted for each child. This stroller is easy to use and maneuver thanks to its large storage basket, easy one-step parking brake, and large storage basket.

The only downsides to the Joovy Twin Roo are minor and specific to that model. Kerry notes that the packaging was enjoyable and innovative, but it also came in five boxes which can be a hassle to lug around. She also found that Genuis's magnetic buckle was difficult to master. However, in the end she was very pleased with this stroller and would highly recommend it.

Storage

Strollers come in a variety of sizes and shapes, ranging from side-by-side doubles to tandem (single-file seating) styles, plus many allow you to customize your setup with a bassinet, or car seat attachment. Some have rider boards that can be added to accommodate older siblings. There are many different types of rider boards. Some are lightweight and easy to use, whereas others are bulky, heavy and difficult to fold.

If you're looking for a lightweight double stroller, look into the Joovy Caboose Ultralight Graphite. It was the lightest stroller we tested in our tests, weighing just under 23 lbs. It is also easy-to-fold and comes with all the features parents want for a great day out with two kids.

The Vista v2 double by UPPAbaby is another model that our test subjects loved. They particularly liked its sleek design and easy-to-use. It can fit two infant car seats or a toddler seat and a bassinet without the need for adapters, and its rear seat can be removed to turn it into a triple or quad stroller. It comes with a large basket for storage, and it can be upgraded with a parent organizer and all-terrain tires, as well as storage bags for the sides.

Billingsley says the ideal double stroller for a toddler is one that supports multiple customization options, like an adjustable seat or bassinet. Toddlers can be restricted in their endurance, so a stroller that has an integrated bassinet can offer a safe spot for them to nap. A double stroller should also include a harness system that is reliable and recline positions, as well as plenty of storage room for toys and snacks.

The ZOE twin pushchairs+ is popular among parents due to its light weight and versatility. It's gate-check-friendly on airlines it can be accessed through all doors (without removing the wheels on the front), and can be made into a quad or triple stroller by adding an additional tandem. The near-flat, independently reclined seats as well as the extra-long sun canopy that can be adjusted are among the other features. A spacious underseat basket as well as cup holders for both parents and children complete this impressive feature set. Taylor says that the only drawback is that it has an enormous profile when folded, and is difficult for parents to carry.
