How to Choose the Best Double Stroller

If you're in the market for a double stroller there are plenty of options. Katie Billingsley, a child development expert and mother, was able to help us choose the right one for you.

You should choose a stroller that is simple to fold and push, as well as carry. Look for a model that can fit two infant car seat or a toddler that has a riderboard.

Safety

If you want to keep your kids safe while walking opt for a double stroller that has features such as all-terrain tires and an electronic brake that can be operated by hand. These wheels and brakes assist you in navigating trails or sidewalks without the risk of your children sliding or rolling away. The best double strollers have ample storage space to store equipment and essentials for kids like snacks and toys.

The best double stroller for your family begins with understanding how old and far apart in terms of age your children are. Most double strollers can only allow one child seat, but those do come with various configurations so that you can pick the seating option that best fits your kids and your lifestyle.

Side-by-side doubles are a classic option, and are great for children of similar ages that like to interact with each other. Some models have a double-decker design, which allows you to put one seat higher than the other or even attach a rider board for older siblings. Newborns can be tucked into a bassinet, which is attached to the frame or as a standalone attachment that allows you to have the chance to peek at your baby. If you are expecting twins or already have twins then a twin stroller will be the best option.

Choose a stroller with two wheels that can handle off-road terrain, and even hiking. Many 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 high the climbs might 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 stoller for instance, features a wrist loop, so you can ensure your child's safety while running at higher speeds or in extreme weather conditions. It also comes with a canopy with full coverage that is ventilated to keep your kids cool in the summer heat.

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

Seating

Unlike the behemoth strollers of the past these double strollers are sleek and can accommodate an array of configurations to fit families. Some work as traditional side-by-side strollers while others--such as the Baby Trend Sit 'N Stand Double Stroller - function as a base that car seats, toddler seats or bassinets can be plugged into. They are available in a variety of widths and weights that can accommodate children from newborns through kindergarten.

A good double stroller will be simple to fold and maneuver and will allow you to adjust the height of your handlebar to ensure that you're at ease on all your excursions. A well-designed handlebar should be comfortable to hold and should invite you to walk in a proper form (ask other parents for advice on this). It should also have various storage options that will accommodate all the necessities you'll require for your kids.

If your twins are similar in age, you might find a tandem stroller works best for your family. These strollers have seats that are side-by-side so you can talk to them both while keeping an eye on both of them at the same. They can also recline independently, so one child can nap and the other is ready to go.

The drawback of twin strollers is that it can be more spacious than a model with a Single and Double stroller occupant, which can make it difficult to maneuver around the aisles of shops, sidewalks, and narrow doorways. For some families, the benefits are worth the extra effort and size.

If you're looking for a compact double-stroller then the UPPAbaby V2 Double is an excellent alternative. The UPPAbaby Vista Double is a great option for urban living due to its shock absorption capabilities, elegant 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.

Another alternative is a wagon-style pushchair double stroller, like the Delta Children LX Side-by-Side Stroller. It's a basic model but it comes with plenty of storage and seating space. It also comes with heavy-duty wheels to handle any terrain. It also has a 50+ SPF canopy and a handlebar that can be adjusted. Some parents complain that the seats are too low and do not recline completely flat, making it difficult for children to reach their snack trays or to relax.

Simple to use

A double stroller is usually an investment of a large amount and one you're likely to use for years. When choosing a stroller you must ensure that it's easy to operate and clean. The best double strollers have been designed to be easy-to-use and come with many convenient features.

All strollers we tested can be folded easily and compactly using just one hand. They are light and ideal for traveling. A lot of them can be checked for gate entry on airplanes and fit in most trunks. Most of our testers also found that their strollers can be folded down smaller than their single-seat equivalents. Some even came with a carrying strap.

The Valco Snap Duo trend is double stroller with lots of options that can grow with your family. This side-by-side stroller can be used with infant car seats, a bassinet, and other accessories, meaning you can use it from birth to the age of preschool. Each seat comes with five points of harness and a large canopy. It also offers plenty of sun protection.

The Joovy Twin Roo is another option that is highly praised. The stroller is light and compact, weighing only 22 pounds when folded. The front seat reclines to almost the full flat position and the back seat features an adjustable recline for each child. There's a large storage bin and a simple, one-step linked parking brake which makes this stroller easy to maneuver and use.

The only downsides to the Joovy twin strollers for newborns Roo are minor and specific to the model. Kerry states 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 the Genuis magnetic clasp to be a bit clunky and took a while before she could get it to work. In the end, however she was extremely pleased with the stroller and would highly recommend it.

Storage

Strollers come in all sizes and shapes, from tandem doubles that are side-by-side to (single-file seating) styles, plus many allow you to customize your stroller with a bassinet or car seat attachment. Some have rider boards which can be added for older children. However, not all of them are created equal. Some are sleek and easy to use, while others are bulky, heavy and difficult to fold and store.

If you're looking to purchase a light double stroller, check out the Joovy Caboose Ultralight Graphite. It was the lightest stroller in our tests, with a weight of just under 23 lbs. It is also easy-to-fold and comes with all the features parents would want to enjoy a day out with two kids.

The Vista v2 double from UPPAbaby is another model that our testers loved. They were particularly impressed by its sleek design and user-friendly. It can accommodate two infant car seats, a toddler seat and a bassinet. There are no adapters required. The rear seat can also be removed to create a quad or triple stroller. It comes with a large basket for storage, and can be upgraded with a parent organizer and all-terrain tires, as with side storage bags.

Billingsley says that the best double stroller for a two-year-old is one that has different options for customization, including the ability to remove a seat or a bassinet. This is because toddlers typically have limitations in endurance, and a stroller with the bassinet attachment can provide them with a safe space to rest for a nap. The expert says that a double stroller should also have a good recline position and harness system as well as plenty of storage space for toys and snacks.

The ZOE Twin+ is popular with parents due to its light weight and flexibility. It's airline gate-check-friendly and fits through most doors (without having to remove the front wheels), and can expand into a quad or triple stroller with an added tandem seat. Its near-flat independently reclining seats, extra-long sun canopy and adjustable footrests are additional highlights, while its spacious underseat storage basket as well as the inclusion of parent and kid cup holders complete the impressive feature set. The one drawback according to Taylor the manufacturer, is that it lacks a the smallest profile when folded, and could be difficult to carry.
