How to Choose the Best Double Stroller

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

Look for a stroller that's reasonably easy to fold, push and carry. Look for a model that can fit two infant car seats or a toddler that has a riderboard.

Safety

Choose a double-stroller which includes all-terrain wheels as well as a brake that is operated by hand if you want to keep the kids safe while walking. These wheels and brakes will help you navigate trails or sidewalks without your children falling or rolling away. The best double strollers offer ample storage space to store equipment and essentials for kids like snacks and toys.

Selecting the best double stroller for your family begins by determining how old and far apart in age your kids are. A majority of double strollers can only accommodate one child seat. However, some do come with a variety of configurations that allow you to pick the seating that's best for your family.

Side-by-side doubles are an iconic choice, and they're perfect for kids of similar ages that like to play with one another. Some double-decker designs allow you to put one seat over the other, or add a riderboard to older siblings. Newborns can be tucked into a bassinet attached to the frame, or as a standalone attachment that offers the chance to peek at your baby. If you are expecting twins or have twins then a twin stroller is the best choice.

Look for a double-wheeled stroller that can handle off-road terrain as well as hiking. Many strollers were created with active parents and their children in mind. They come with features that allow you to take them on any adventure no regardless of how challenging or difficult 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. For example this stroller for jogging has a wrist loop for your child so you can be sure that they're safe when you run downhill or at speeds that are higher. It also comes with a canopy with full coverage that is ventilated to keep your kids cool during summer heat.

This model is a compact and compact double stroller from Joovy. It weighs less than 23 pounds. This makes it perfect for air travel and storage in overhead compartments or trunks. It also has a large storage basket and a simple one-step parking brake.

Seating

Contrary to the giant strollers of old the modern double strollers are sleek and can accommodate various configurations that can be adapted to families. Some of them function as traditional side-byside strollers while others--such as the Baby Trend Sit 'N Stand double pram and pushchair Stroller--function as a base to which car seats, toddler seats or bassinets click into. They come in a variety of sizes and weight limits to fit infants and children up to kindergarten.

A good double stroller should be easy to maneuver and fold, while also permitting you to alter the handlebar's height to make sure you're comfortable throughout your outings. A well-designed handlebar is easy to hold and should inspire you to walk in a safe manner (ask for tips from other parents). It should offer a variety of storage options that can accommodate all the necessities your children need.

If your twins are close in age, you might discover that a tandem stroller is best for your family. The seats on these models sit side by side, enabling you to interact with both of them and keep an eye on them at the same time. They also recline independently, so that one child can sleep while the other is awake and ready to go.

The drawback of a twin stroller is that it's larger than a single-occupant model which makes it difficult to navigate sidewalks, shop aisles and narrow doors. But for certain families, the advantages are worth the extra space and effort.

If you're looking for a small double-stroller, then the UPPAbaby V2 Double is an excellent alternative. Its shock absorbers, streamlined design, and capacity for two infant car seats, plus an optional running board for older children--make it an ideal option for urban living.

A wagon-style double buggy stroller such as the Delta Children LX Stroller Side-by-Side is another alternative. This basic model comes with lots of space for seating and storage space, along with robust wheels that can handle any terrain. It also has a canopy with a 50+ SPF and adjustable handlebars. However, some parents feel that the seats are too low and can't recline completely to a flat position, making it difficult for smaller children to be comfortable or reach their snack trays.

Easy of Use

A double stroller is often an investment you're likely to use for many years. If you are looking for a double stroller, make sure that it is easy to use and clean. Luckily, the most effective double strollers are designed to be as user-friendly as they can and include a variety of useful features for parents.

For starters, All Terrain Double buggy of the strollers we tested fold easily and compactly (with one hand!). They are light and ideal for traveling. They can fit in most trunks and can be gate-checked on airplanes. Furthermore, the majority our testers found that their strollers folded to a smaller size than the single seat models, and some even had an adjustable carry strap for easy carrying.

If you're in search of a multi-purpose double stroller that will expand with your family, look no further than the Valco Snap Duo Trend. This side-byside stroller works with infant car seats as well as other accessories. It can be used from birth until preschool age. Each seat comes with a 5-point harness and a large canopy that gives ample shade from the sun.

Another highly-regarded option is the Joovy Twin Roo. This stroller is lightweight, compact and only 22 pounds when folded. The front seat reclines to nearly a full flat position and the back seat has an adjustable recline for every child. This stroller is easy to operate and maneuver due to its large storage basket, simple one-step parking brake and large storage basket.

The only drawbacks of the Joovy Twin Roo are minor and specific to the model. Kerry states that the packaging was fun and clever, however it was also packaged in five boxes that can be a bit of an inconvenience to carry around. She also found the Genuis magnetic clasp to be somewhat difficult to use and took her a while before she was able to master it. In the end, however she was very pleased with her stroller and would definitely recommend it.

Storage

Strollers come with a variety of shapes and sizes, from tandem doubles that are side-by-side to (single-file seating) styles, plus many allow you to personalize your layout with a bassinet, or car seat attachment. Some come with rider boards designed for older kids. However, not all of them are made equal. Some are sleek and easy to use, while others are bulky, heavy and difficult to fold and store.

If you're seeking a stroller with a light weight that can accommodate two children, the Joovy Caboose Graphite is a great choice. It was the lightest choice in our tests at close to 23 lbs and is also simple to fold, but it has all the features parents need to have a great time out with two children.

UPPAbaby's Vista v2 double is another model that our testers loved. They especially liked its sleek design and easy-to-use. It can accommodate two infant car seats, a toddler's seat, and a bassinet with no adapters needed. The rear seat can also be removed to create a quad or triple stroller. It has a large storage basket and can be upgraded to include an organizer for parents, all-terrain wheels, and side storage bags.

Billingsley says the ideal double stroller for a toddler is one that has different options for customization, including the ability to remove a seat or a bassinet. Toddlers are typically limited in their endurance and strollers that have an attached bassinet will provide a safe place for them to sleep. A double stroller should also come with a sturdy harness system and recline positions, and plenty of storage space for snacks and toys.

The ZOE Twin+ is a popular choice among parents because of its light weight and the versatility. It's gate-check-friendly on airlines it can be accessed through all doors (without taking off the wheels at the front) and can be expanded into a quad or triple stroller by adding an add-on tandem. Its near-flat independently reclining seats, extra-long sun canopies and footrests that can be adjusted are other highlights, while its spacious underseat storage basket as well as the inclusion of parent and child cup holders round out the impressive feature set. The one drawback, according to Taylor, is that it doesn't have a small profile when folded and can be difficult to carry.
