Choosing a Double Travel Stroller

A double stroller can be a lifesaver for busy parents with multiple young children. Find one that is lightweight and folds small enough to fit into the trunk of your car or in an overhead bin for airplanes.

Avoid exceeding the recommended weight for a seat by the manufacturer to avoid fatigue of the frame. Other essentials include flexible seating arrangements for children of different age, aprons that can be adjusted and plenty of storage.

Simple to use

Double strollers are often criticized as being heavy and difficult to assemble. But they've improved a lot since the 1980s. The best double strollers have modern designs and can be tailored to meet your family's unique requirements, whether that's a tandem (single file seating) or a side-byside configuration. They're also light and can be tucked away in car trunks and on most planes.

A stroller that is easy to maneuver across a variety of surfaces and fits into small spaces is especially important for families who live in urban areas, where space is limited and public transportation is the primary mode of getting around. The light and agile double strollers we test can weave through busy sidewalks and tight subway gates, making them indispensable for busy city life.

We consider a variety of aspects when evaluating the stroller's convenience, such as how easy it is to fold and set up, and if it can be adjusted to accommodate different family members of different heights. We also look for a spacious storage bin and reclined seats that are easy to access and adjust as well as the highest weight limit for the canopy and seat. The Zoe Twin+ earned top scores in this category thanks to its ample storage bin with super-sized canopy, as well as a quick fold.

If you're looking for a light stroller that fits into small car trunks the Mountain Buggy Nano Duo is a great option. It's one of the tiniest double strollers we've tested and it folds down into smaller size, making it easy to carry up and down stairs than many other models. It's the smallest double umbrella stroller we've ever tested and is a great choice for travel. Certain airlines will allow you to gate-check this stroller.

Parents of twins need a side-by-side stroller that supports two infant car seats is crucial. Some double strollers like the Graco DuoGlider Elite allow you to use two infant car seats at the same time which can save time and energy. It is also possible to think about a tandem stroller that lets you to keep your children in earshot and sight.

Comfort

If you want to make sure your children are safe during strolls, a high-quality cushioned seat is vital. Look for one with an adjustable backrest and a recline feature, as well as a spacious seat area that allows kids to stretch out or sit up easily. Consider a stroller that has a spacious undercarriage to accommodate storage bags or other items without affecting the positioning of the seats.

The weight and size could also impact the performance of a double travel jogger's performance. Choose a model that has robust wheels and suspension that allow it to glide easily over rough surfaces. A quality double stroller will also be maneuvered in tight spaces, and navigate narrow hallways, crowded subway gates and sidewalks. If you plan to use a double stroller regularly, opt for an option with a quick, one or two-step fold that can fit in the trunk of a car or a compact vehicle.

Parents traveling with young children usually rely on a double stroller to get them around, particularly in urban regions where space is at an all-time low and public transportation is common. A compact double buggy modular double stroller such as the CYBEX Gazelle S is ideal for this type of situation, since it allows parents to mix and match seats, cot attachments, and car seats in order to meet changing needs of the family as well as when children outgrow their car seats as infants.

Another option is a double infant stroller umbrella stroller which is typically lighter and more compact than traditional models. They are generally ideal for those traveling, as they fold up quickly and easily, can be gate checked on airplanes, and often comply with Disney's stroller size specifications. Some of them offer plenty of storage space for toys, snacks and other gear.

People with twins or siblings of close in age will get the most use out of a stroller that is side-by-side. This type of double stroller typically cheaper than a modular model, and its seats generally offer plenty of legroom, recline options, and canopy options that offer ample coverage. A side-by-side double stroller comes with only one drawback: it can be difficult to navigate narrow hallways and overcrowded sidewalks. The wider frame may also make it difficult to navigate through certain doors.

Folding is easy

The folding ease is the primary consideration when selecting a double travel pram. This is particularly important if you have to fold your stroller in small spaces or on streets with cars and pedestrians near. The best strollers have an intuitive, simple folding process that requires only a few steps. They also fold without awkward complexities that can result in slamming parts of the body or sliding. Our top double travel stollers for folding quickly include the Evenflo PivotXplore and Babyzen YOYO2 connect Double.

It's important to consider the duration you'll be using a double-travel stroller. If you plan to keep your children in the same seats until they reach a minimum preschool age, then you may want to look into an option that is side-by-side that can be adapted to include bassinets for infants or car seats. Convertible double jogging stroller strollers are a great option if you believe your children will be ready for separate seats prior to that point.

Some of the top double-strollers that we tested offer a flat recline. This makes it easier for your kids to sleep or eat their snacks while they are on the move. Some strollers have an alternative recline for each seat. For instance, the front seat of the UPPAbaby Double v2 Double is nearly flat while the second one is upright. This type of difference in recline can cause children to argue over which one they would like to sit in.

You'll have to consider the dimensions of the trunk of your vehicle, since some double strollers are bulky and will not fit in the back of smaller vehicles. We recommend selecting a double stroller that fits well in your trunk and can be easily folded and stored away when not in use. We also like double-strollers with tiny footprints, low weight, and a simple design. The ZOE Twin+ is one of these. It's the most compact double stroller we've tested, and at just 19 pounds it's among the lightest strollers that can still be able to meet airline gate-check luggage weight limits--it's Disney-size approved!

Stores

The behemoth strollers of the 1980s might have caused double strollers to get a bad name however they've evolved a great deal. Nowadays, sleek, modular models are able to accommodate a variety of customizations, fit kids from birth through kindergarten, and are available in side-by-side or tandem (single-file seating) models. They also have infant car seats as well as an attachable riding board. You might have to pay more initially, but the investment will pay off through the flexibility and resale.

When shopping for a double stroller, you should consider the weight limit of each seat as well as the storage space available and whether or not each seat reclines. A recline that is deep is ideal for naps while on the move and a canopy with UV protection keeps kids from getting too hot in the sun. Double strollers can also feature cup holders for parents and dual snack tray for on-the-go convenience.

Another factor to be aware of is the weight of the stroller in order to determine the ability of you to carry it around and maneuver it into tight areas. Some of the most lightweight strollers, such as the Kolcraft Cloud Plus weigh less than 23 pounds, and can accommodate children as heavy as 40 pounds. It's a little lighter than the typical single stroller, and is sufficient to carry around airports, in overhead bins and into cars.

If you're looking to save money, check out used options on sites like Facebook Marketplace or Craigslist, where you can often find gently used double strollers available at bargain prices. Find a double stroller that is in good shape, with no signs of rust or loose screws. If you are considering using a used double stroller with your children, perform a thorough check, including inspecting the wheel axles. There are strollers for rent in some cities, but this option isn't available everywhere and can be pricey in the event that you intend to use the stroller frequently.
