Buying a Double Infant Stroller

A double stroller is a convenient option for parents to take multiple children. The most effective models are easy to fold, carry and fit into a trunk of a car. They also provide various seating arrangements for children of different ages.

If your children are similar in age, you might consider a sit-and-stand or side-by-side design is the best way to avoid sibling fights over which seat to use. We also like the options that accept two infant car seat like the UPPAbaby V2 Hauck Duett 2 Double Pushchair - Black Reversible Compact.

Comfort

A comfortable stroller is key for both your toddler and baby. Select one with cushioned seats, a large base, and swivelling front wheels to smooth out bumps in the road and buckles that are simple to secure and remove.

Choose a big UPF 50+ canopy that provides sun protection for both children and adults. Adjustable footrests allow your child to stand up in the back seat when they're exhausted. Some double strollers, such as the most popular model from Safety 1st, offer this option for both children.

The number of seats you can have in the stroller will be contingent on the weight and age of the children using it. For instance, a side by side stroller allows you to keep an eye on both kids simultaneously, so it's perfect for twins or siblings who are close in age. However, it's generally wider than other types and can be difficult to maneuver in tight spaces or in areas with a lot of people.

Sit-and-stand prams allow older siblings to stand while you push a younger child in a car seat for infants. It's not the ideal choice for babies, but it is beneficial for older children that can walk for longer distances.

Another alternative is a convertible stroller which has multiple seating arrangements and can be used as a single or double for a number of years. Rebecca says that this type of stroller is an excellent option for parents who are planning to buy one stroller and use it with both children. It's more expensive than the top tandem pick however it will last an extended period of time and comes with the best resale value she adds.

This flexibility can help a double stroller work for as long as you want 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 using and maneuverability of 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 different ages. The telescoping handles as well as the easy-to-use brakes allow it to be more flexible than other double strollers that we tested.

Easy of Storage

Double strollers must be able to accommodate diaper bags and water bottles snacks, toys, and jackets for the kids, as well as parents' wallets, keys phones and other things. They must also be able to slide across different surfaces and maneuver through tight spots. When not in use, they are often required to fit into the trunk of a vehicle.

To meet these requirements Double strollers are constructed in a variety of designs. They can be side-by-side or tandem with seats that can be removed or fixed, or be equipped with infant car seats and a riding board. They can be designed to fit one toddler or infant or twins. Some are suitable for running, while others could be used on hiking trails or at the beach.

Modular designs are especially useful for families that have to expand their strollers. The CYBEX Gazelle, for example, allows parents to mix and combine seats, cots, and car seats to let the stroller fit the entire family from newborn to toddlerhood.

Other modular double strollers like the UPPAbaby Vista V2 Double can be modified to accommodate one child using a bassinet or baby seat or a toddler using a standing board or jump seat (sold separately). The versatile UPPAbaby can be set up in 30 different ways, making it ideal for twins or siblings, or even an expanding family.

Safety

If you're looking for a double stroller that can be used side-by-side or in a line, make sure it is JPMA-certified to ensure it conforms to safety standards. It will also undergo regular inspections. You should also look for a suspension system that provides a smooth ride and doesn't cause bumps or jolting for your toddlers in the front seat. If your stroller comes with a handlebar, make sure that it is adjustable to accommodate Moms and Dads of different heights.

A canopy is a crucial feature that protects your babies from harsh sunlight or the harsh weather. The most effective canopies have windows that can be reversible or a transparent plastic peek-aboo which lets you observe your child without causing any disturbance. Some canopies have visors that block the direct sun.

Another important metric to take into consideration is how easy the stroller folds and unfolds. Compact strollers are easier to store in your car's trunk and take up less room. Strollers with a single button to fold the chassis are more user-friendly.

When choosing a double stroller, bear in mind the distance your children are in age and what kind of outings you are planning to take them on. For instance, if your children are in the same age range and you want to consider a tandem high-low stroller so that they can be together when outings are planned. If your children are separated by a large age gap, you may choose one that allows them to have more privacy.

If you plan to use your stroller for baby car seats, choose one with a high attachment score and compatible with top-rated brands. This won't have as significant of an impact on your overall rating as other factors however it's a crucial consideration if you're planning on using adapters for car seats.
