How to Choose the Best Double Stroller

There are a variety of options in the field of double strollers. To help you pick the right one for your family, we talked to the expert in child development and mom Katie Billingsley.

It is recommended to choose a stroller that is easy to fold and push to carry. You should consider a stroller that can hold two infant car seats or a toddler who has a riderboard.

Safety

Find a double-stroller that has all-terrain wheels and a brake that can be operated by hand if you want to ensure your children are safe when walking. These brakes and wheels will allow you to navigate paths and dirt without worrying about your children falling or rolling. The best double strollers also have plenty of storage space for gear and essentials for kids, such as snacks and toys.

The first step in choosing the right double stroller is to figure out the age of your children and how far apart they are. Most double strollers only accommodate one child seat. However, some offer a variety of configurations that let you choose the seating that's best for your family.

The classic doubles are ideal for children of similar ages who are keen to interact. Some double-decker designs allow the user to place one of the seats over the other, or even attach a riderboard to older siblings. Newborns can either be snuggled in a bassinet attached to the frame, or with an attachment that allows you to peek-a-boo at your baby. If you are expecting twins or already have twins then a twin stroller is the best choice.

For more adventurous families consider cheap double buggy strollers that can handle off-road terrain, or even hiking. Many of these strollers are designed with active parents in mind and come with features that let you take your kids to any adventure, no matter how rough the road or how steep the climb may be.

In addition to all-terrain tires, the top double strollers feature thoughtful features that make getting around difficult terrain and weather a lot easier. This jogging stoller, for instance, features a wrist loop, so you can ensure your child's safety when running downhill at higher speeds or in extreme weather conditions. It also has a canopy that covers the entire area and has ventilation to ensure your children stay comfortable during the summer heat.

This model is a compact and compact double stroller from Joovy. It weighs just 23 pounds, which makes it lighter than other single strollers, and ideal for air travel or storage in overhead compartments or trunks. Additionally, it comes with a huge storage basket and an integrated parking brake that's easy to use.

Seating

Contrary to the giant strollers of the past these double strollers are sleek and can accommodate an array of designs to accommodate families. Some double strollers can be used as side-by-side models, while others, like the Baby Trend Sit 'N Stand Dual Stroller can be used as a base for car seats, toddlers ' seats, and bassinets. They are available in a variety of widths and weight limits to fit infants and children up to kindergarten.

A good double stroller should be simple to fold and maneuver and allows you to adjust your handlebar height to ensure you are at ease on all your excursions. A well-designed handlebar should be comfortable to hold and should allow you to walk in a proper form (ask other parents for tips on this). It should also offer a variety of storage options that can accommodate everything you need for your kids.

If your twins are of a similar age and are in the same age group, a tandem stroller might be the best choice for your family. These models come with seats that are side-byside, so you can interact with them both while keeping an eye on each of them at the same. They can also recline separately so that one child can nap while the other is awake and ready to go.

The disadvantage of twin strollers is that it can be larger than a single-occupant model, which can make it difficult to navigate walkways, aisles for shopping and narrow doors. However, for some families, the advantages are worth the extra size and effort.

If you're looking for a small double-stroller, then the UPPAbaby V2 Double is a great option. Its shock absorption, streamlined design and the capacity to accommodate two infant car seats, plus an optional running board for more mobile children--make it an ideal option for city-living.

Another alternative is a wagon-style double stroller, such as the Delta Children LX Side-by-Side Stroller. It's a basic model however it has plenty of space for storage and seating. It also has heavy-duty wheels that can handle any terrain. It also has an SPF canopy that is 50+ and adjustable handlebars. Some parents complain that the seats are too low and cannot recline fully flat, which makes it difficult for little children to reach their food trays or relax.

Easy of Use

Double strollers are often a large investment that you will use for many years. When choosing a stroller you must ensure that it's easy to use and clean. The top double strollers are designed to be user-friendly and include numerous features that are convenient.

For starters, all of the strollers we tested folded easily and compactly (with only one hand!). They're also light, making them ideal for travel. A majority of them are checked at the gate on planes and fit in most trunks. Additionally, the majority of our testers reported that their strollers folded down to smaller sizes than their single-seat counterparts and some even had a carry strap for convenient carrying.

The Valco Snap Duo trend is a double stroller that has many options that can adapt to the needs of your family. This side-byside stroller works with infant car seats as well as other accessories. It can be used from birth up to the age of preschool. Each seat comes with a 5-point harness, a large canopy and ample sun protection.

The Joovy Twin Roo is another option that is highly praised. This stroller is lightweight compact and weighs only weighs 22 pounds when folded. The front seat reclines almost to the full flat position and the back seat comes with an adjustable recline for every child. There's a large storage bin and an easy, one-step linked parking brake that makes this stroller extremely user-friendly and easy to maneuver.

The only negatives of the Joovy Twin Roo were minor and specific to the model in question. Kerry says that the packaging is clever and enjoyable, however, it comes in five boxes that can be a little cumbersome to carry around. She also found the Genuis magnetic clasp somewhat awkward and it took a while before she could get it to work. She was pleased with the stroller, however, and would recommend it.

Stores

Strollers come with a variety of shapes and sizes, from tandems with side-by-side doubles to tandem (single-file seating) styles, and a lot allow you to personalize your setup with a bassinet, or car seat attachment. Some have even added rider boards for older siblings. But, they're not all created equal. Some are elegant and simple to use, whereas others are heavy, bulky and difficult to fold or store.

If you're looking to purchase a light double stroller, take a look at the Joovy Caboose Ultralight Graphite. It was the lightest option in our tests, weighing close to 23 pounds. It is also simple to fold, but it has all the features parents require for a fun outing with two kids.

UPPAbaby's Vista v2 double is another model that our testers loved. They were particularly impressed by 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 make it into a triple or quad stroller. It comes with a large storage basket that can be upgraded to include a parent organizer with wheels for all-terrain and side storage bags.

Billingsley says the ideal double stroller for a two-year-old is one that supports different options for customization, including the ability to remove a seat or a bassinet. Toddlers can be restricted in their endurance, so a stroller that has an integrated bassinet can provide a safe place for them to sleep. She suggests that a double stroller should also have a good harness and recline position as well as plenty of storage space for toys and snacks.

The ZOE Twin+ is popular with parents due to its lightweight and versatility. It's easy to check at airport gates, fits through most doors (without removing the front wheels) and expands into a quad or triple stroller with an add-on tandem seat. The near-flat, independently reclining seats and the extra-long, adjustable sun canopies are among the other features. A large underseat storage basket as well as cup holders for both parents and children make up the impressive set of features. The only drawback according to Taylor the manufacturer, is that it doesn't have a the smallest profile when folded and can be difficult to stow.
