How to Choose the Best Double Strollers Whether you're out for a stroll in the sun or going for your morning jog with the children, a double stroller will make life with twins or two kids with different ages a lot simpler. With the many options available to choose from, how do you pick the most appropriate one for your family? Our new team member, Kerry, got her stroller's feet wet when she tried it out with this expandable model that allows you to change the seating configuration to suit different requirements. Safety Your stroller must be secure regardless of whether you're running the town with your kids, going to the zoo or trick-or treating. It's crucial to have a sturdy frame as well as comfortable harnesses that are easy to grab handles for toddlers. It should also to fit through doors, simple to fold and move and be simple to maneuver. It must also be affordable. Every double stroller we tested went through rigorous testing in our lab at the zoo, in our lab and on city streets. We also took them for family outings to suburban areas. Our lab tests test the stroller's maneuverability, stability and ease of steering. We also test the suspension comfort for both the driver and the rider as well as the capacity for weight, height of the canopy for the seat, and the storage space. In addition to the regular safety checks performed by our experts in strollers, we ask parents to provide feedback on their experiences with each model. We then take all this information into consideration when making recommendations. If you're in search of a secure quality, high-quality stroller, begin with our top choices. These strollers can be used in multiple seating options to accommodate infant car seats, can be used as a single stroller or tandem and are suitable for children from birth through elementary school. The best double strollers can expand with your family. They're sleek and stylish, support many different customization options and can be used by infants and toddlers in tandem or side-by-side (single-file) seating designs. They also come with a large storage basket as well as a telescoping handlebar and one-handed folding mechanisms. If you have twins or an infant who is similar age to their sibling, think about choosing a tandem stroller with an extra bench seat in the back that can be used by a third child. They're a great choice for siblings who wish to be social with one another but aren't in a position to sit with each other in a stroller that is side-by-side which could result in them ending with fighting or arguing. There are also convertible models, which allow you to remove the bench seat for your child when they are ready to go without the car seat. Comfort The best double strollers feature comfortable child seats that have plenty of padding and support. The best double strollers come with ample storage space, spacious legs and footwells for children, and UPF 50+ canopy that offers fantastic sun protection. The seats should recline at a slight angle to ensure that children are at ease, and they should have calf bars that allow parents to alter the position of each seat independently. The handlebars must be comfortable and easy to move according to Alli Cavasino who is a certified child passenger safety technician. The handlebars must be close enough to your child's seat that you can grab them and hold them. If the handlebars on the stroller are too far apart it will be a challenge to keep your balance and maintain good form when pushing them. The ride should be smooth on rough or rough surfaces. Some of the models we tested include shock absorbers to keep the ride stable. Some have rear and front suspension, which can reduce the amount of force you need to push them, and increase your control over them. The wheels should be constructed of high-quality rubber and have a durable tread that can handle lots of wear and tear. We looked for the most versatile double strollers that can be used from birth through toddlerhood and beyond. Some of the models we came across can be set up as tandem strollers or side-by-side and one, the Uppababy Vista v2, can even be converted into a single-file stroller suitable for infants. This model is three times as costly as our top tandem model however its materials are more durable, and it will last longer. The best double strollers are light and movable enough for long walks, errands and trips to the zoo or park. They're generally wider than single strollers, so they won't fit through narrow doorways or in crowded aisles of stores. Some are more expensive than single-seaters, but that's reasonable since you get a lot more for your money. The models we recommend are suitable for adults and children alike, and they'll grow with your family. Convenience If you're planning to invest the money for a double stroller, you'll need one that's convenient to push and put away. The ideal stroller will be lightweight and fit in the trunk of your car or the space at home. It must also be able to traverse rough terrain and make tight turns. The best double-strollers feature adjustable calf support and seats that recline. They also provide UPF sun protection. The canopy should be large enough to accommodate two children. If you are worried about the sun getting in their eyes, choose a stroller with a peek-a-boo window. The age and stage of your child can influence the kind of stroller you choose to be most suitable for your needs. For example, parents of twins may choose an convertible stroller that accommodates two infant car seats at once and a family with an older child and a toddler may prefer a double that is side-by-side. It is also important to determine whether you want an infant stroller that can be pushed through narrow doors or in crowded grocery store aisles and is able to be used on airplanes. In our Lab tests, we found that the top double strollers are reasonably easy to fold and carry. The majority of double strollers fold down in just one or two steps, and are small enough to fit into the majority of cars that are compact. They're also designed to be stable and easy to reassemble. Some of the top double strollers have practical features for parents, such as a one-parent cup holder as well as a large storage basket. Consider whether the stroller comes with locks on the front seat to prevent your child from climbing out. Some strollers come with an universal adapter for car seats that can be converted into a single seat as your child develops. The top double strollers are expensive, but they come with superior build quality and have higher resales values than less expensive models. They're also easier to maneuver and can withstand the toughest terrains, such as park trails or city sidewalks. Style Parents shopping for a double stroller want more than just a way to carry two kids. They want a lightweight, maneuverable stroller with enough onboard storage and thoughtful features that allow it to adapt to the changing needs of children. It should also be easy for them to push and maneuver. Since they'll be carrying more than children, the stroller must be comfortable on their backs and shoulders. This is why the top double strollers are sleek and support a wide range of options for customization, and be adapted to infant car seats for a seamless transition from toddler to baby. They're available in side-by-side or tandem (single-file seating) designs and can be light enough for jogging or for travel. Apart from size one of the most important aspects to consider when parents are shopping for a double stroller is whether it will fit through doorways or other small spaces. Fortunately, the majority of models we tested in our latest update can clear standard exterior doors that measure 36 inches wide. The the majority of them can fit inside doors that measure 28 to 35 inches wide. When evaluating the top double strollers, we also take into consideration how easy they fold and unfold. We also take a look at how comfortable the seats and canopy are. Additionally, we take a look at how comfortable the straps and buckles are for seated kids and how easy to access and adjust the height of the handlebar. For example our top option one, the Uppababy Vista V2, is lightweight and has ample onboard storage for both children. double buggy with carrycot has a parent cup holder and recliners that can be adjusted individually. It also has a generous UPF 50+ canopy that has a peekaboo window. Its cushioned seat straps and buckles are among the most comfortable in our tests and we found the seat to be one of the easiest to secure for children of all age groups.

Be sure to do your research and check for any indications of damage before purchasing.
