Buying a Small Double Stroller

A double stroller is an important investment, and it's one that you will use for years. That's why it's important to choose carefully.

Our test participants were looking for strollers with excellent flexibility and a smooth ride across all terrains. They also examined whether the strollers were easy to fold and maneuver.

Size

There are a variety of double strollers that include tandem, side-byside (single-file) and wagons. The category has evolved from the massive 1980s models that many older generation millennials may remember. Today they're sleek and offer a range of customizations to make travel with children more enjoyable for all involved.

For parents with infants or toddlers, a double stroller that includes a car seats is a great option for getting them from one point to B. Some of the most sophisticated strollers available feature frames that can accommodate two infant car seats or convertible toddler seats, allowing them to be used from birth up until kids reach the age of kindergarten. These are typically more expensive than a simple double stroller frame, however they also offer the convenience of a built-in car seat system and a spacious undercarriage basket that can hold both car seats.

Parents with fewer children might prefer a simpler, less-expensive single-to-double stroller. These frames tend to be lighter, and some moms still use their stroller after their children have outgrown it.

The compact fold is another fantastic feature of some of the tiniest double strollers we've tested. They can be tucked away where larger strollers won't, and they're often easier to maneuver once folded.

Additionally, the majority of small double strollers we've tested come with a decent-sized sunshade, but the it's possible to have nothing to a cocoon covering. For families on a budget it's worth looking at second-hand strollers available on sites like Facebook Marketplace to see if there's a model that meets your family's needs--just be sure to examine any used stroller for signs of wear and tear prior to purchasing one.

Weight

Parents should consider their budget and whether the stroller is suitable for their family's needs when shopping for a double small stroller. For instance, a light stroller might not provide enough storage space for bulky bags or extra gear. It might not have a large canopy, or other features to make it easier to use on long journeys.

The best double buggy double strollers are sturdy and easy to maneuver and ensure that the children stay at ease in their seats and don't shift around when they ride. Strollers that have padded seatbacks as well as adjustable leg rests get higher scores in our tests of comfort than strollers without. The best double strollers also provide reclining seating options which allow children to unwind during long rides.

Innovative designs and clever features are making strollers that can be used in a variety of ways more popular than ever. Some of the best options are able to accommodate multiple car seat installation and offer a variety of seating configurations from birth to preschool years. Some are so light they can be used for jogging or for travel.

When choosing a small double stroller it is essential to consider whether the stroller can be pushed through narrow doorways and other spaces. The majority of older models of side-by-side strollers and tandem strollers are wide in general which makes them incompatible with numerous doors. The most compact double strollers are usually narrower than traditional models and can be pushed into doors of all sizes easily.

Another thing to think about is whether you require an additional feature on your stroller such as a cup holder or snack tray. These are helpful for longer trips, but they can add weight and cost to the double stroller.

Folding

A compact double stroller folds compactly to fit in small spaces. It is also easy to keep in storage. In addition, a lightweight design ensures that it will be easy to move and carry.

Before you pick a small double stroller take note of where you'll use it and how often. The answer to these questions will help you identify the features that are the most important. If you intend to run with your stroller, you'll want one with a smooth suspension so it can easily glide across rough roads and uneven terrain.

Also, think about the temperament and age of your children. If they are close in age, then a side-by-side stroller might be the best choice. If they are at different stages of development then a tandem stroller may be the best choice for you.

A double stroller may be expensive, but it's an investment that pays off in the long term. Investing in a quality model that is suited to your family's needs will make traveling with children much easier and will give years of comfort to you and your children.

If you're limited with storage space, you might want to consider a small double stroller that can accommodate both infant car seats and toddlers. The Evenflo Pivot Xplore Wagon is a great choice for families with two children, and it can even hold twins. It comes with two canopy options and a storage bin that can be attached, and a child's tray with cup holders. This budget-friendly, lightweight stroller is easy to fold and can be carried using only one hand. It is worth noting that the majority of double modular strollers require you to remove the second seat when folding them.

Maneuverability

The best small double strollers are easy to maneuver and come with smooth, responsive wheels that can glide across all types of surfaces. These strollers also come with comfortable, reclining seats and ample storage space for children's gear. Many strollers are compatible with toddler and infant seats as well as car seat carriers. These features make these strollers an ideal choice for families that want one stroller that can be used for multiple purposes.

Alli Cavasino is a certified child safety technician and a travel gear expert who counsels parents on strollers and other travel equipment. She suggests selecting a light, easy-to-push model. "Strollers that are too heavy can cause frame fatigue and injury," she says. "If your stroller is weighing too much and difficult to push, consider including a ride-along board, or reduce the number of kids in the seat."

Some of the double strollers that we tested are able to accommodate multiple infant car seats. The UPPAbaby Vista v2 double, for instance, can hold two infant seats or toddler seats at the same time and can be transformed into three seats with the RumbleSeat add-on. It also comes with a fashionable inline design with foam-filled tires that won't flatten and an adjustable handbar that can be telescoping. Its seat buckles are among the most simple to secure and remove and its UPF 50+ sunshades feature window-like windows.

Other models are available with multiple seating configurations. They can be used for twins, triplets, an older child and an infant or an infant riding on a scooter (sold separately). These models also feature brakes that are easy to use and an incredibly compact fold that can fit in most trunks. Some are even lightweight enough to schlep up and down stairs. And most require little assembly although the Joovy Caboose requires a few tools and took the longest time to construct in our tests.

Safety

The top double strollers have many safety features, including adjustable handlebars for a comfortable grip and a wide base that won't tip when the children get out of their seats. The canopies are big enough to accommodate both kids in rainstorms. They're also very easy to use, says Alli Cavasino who is a certified child-passenger safety technician. "Look for an easy, one- or two step fold that is easy to carry and has a space where the straps can be positioned," she says.

The tiniest strollers are able to fit through doors with ease. This is an excellent advantage if you live a small apartment or have a small car. The smallest models also weigh less than normal double twin strollers for newborns. This makes them easier to carry from one place to the next.

Parents of children who are close in age may choose a side-by-side stroller like our top pick for the Joovy Kooper X2, which includes two child seats that can be adjusted for recline and width separately. In our testing the seats, we found them to be very comfortable and the recline to be quick and intuitive by using a single lever on each seat. It also has an enormous storage basket, a parking brake that is one step (to reduce fatigue in the hands while stopping) and a few of our most popular harnesses.

If you have children who are apart in age, then a stroller that sits and stands, such as our top pick, the UPPAbaby Vista Double, could be a good choice. It can fit two car seats for infants and it also has two modified seats that serve as bassinets.
