Buying Guide For Double Strollers

A double stroller is a great investment when you have two kids of similar age. These narrow tandem strollers or versatile side-by-side buggies help you keep an eye on both kids at the same time while navigating the aisles of the supermarket, parks and anything else life throws your way.

Comfort

The comfort factor is one of the most important factors to think about when purchasing a double-stroller. This could include both seating arrangements and the overall size of the stroller which affects the convenience and storage. "Parents should check how much the stroller weighs as well as its folded dimensions," says child development expert and mom Katie Billingsley of Fourth Trimester Postnatal Retreat. "They should also take a look at the recline options for seats and age ranges to ensure the best double strollers fit for their family."

A well-constructed double tandem pushchair stroller will be robust enough to navigate different surfaces smoothly--from parks trails to suburban sidewalks and from infant car seats to toddler booster seats. It should offer a range of seating options for children at different ages, as well as comfort features like peek-a-boo window and adjustable canopies which protect children from the sun or rain.

Seating options are crucial for many families who use a double stroller from the time of birth until the age of. "There are two main categories - in-line with one seat ahead of the other, and side by side with seats that are next to each other," Billingsley explains. "Some parents prefer an in-line option for its sleek appearance and versatility, whereas others prefer a wagon-style double stroller to maximize space for heavy items or grocery bags."

In-line models tend to have this type of discrepancy. Certain models may provide different recline options, with one being nearly flat, and the other one remaining fairly upright. Billingsley recommends selecting a product with both a near flat recline and leg rest adjustment for both seats. This will ensure that both children lay down comfortably.

She also suggests parents look for strollers that have storage compartments to allow them to quickly access snacks, personal items and toys when moving about. She also suggests that it's helpful to find a stroller which includes a parent console or organizer bag attached on the handlebars. This can help parents keep essentials close to hand.

A few of the top-rated double strollers are expandable which allows parents to alter the configuration to meet the requirements of their growing family. For example, the Mockingbird Expandable is a highly rated double stroller that can be used with just a single seat from birth, and then transformed into tandem (with an additional seat and bassinet) as the child gets older.

Safety

Double strollers must be able to support the weight of both passengers and any additional cargo. Strollers need to be able to move and push, particularly on difficult terrain and in tight spaces. The best strollers have ergonomic handlebars that can be adjusted in height to help parents maintain good posture when pushing them. Another great feature is a no-rethread seat belt harness, which makes it easier to adjust the seat belts. Finally, a sturdy brake system and wheels that can glide over any surface are essential safety features.

Some parents choose an arrangement that is side by side to ensure that both children meet up when they go on family outings. This arrangement can help prevent siblings fighting over who is allowed to sit and stand double stroller in which spot however it's not foolproof. If the seats are placed at different levels, one child might be able to kick or punch the other during the course of a walk.

For parents with twins or siblings of similar age, a tandem-style stroller can be beneficial in being able to view both kids at once. However, they are more spacious than other double strollers, and they might not fit through all interior doorways. To maximize versatility, you should consider a single-to-double stroller which can switch from a single stroller to a tandem in a variety of ways, like the renowned CYBEX Gazelle S. These models are able to accommodate a broad variety of configurations and permit you to insert infant car seats or cot attachments depending on your requirements.

If you're in the market for a tandem or side-byside stroller, ensure that the stroller has been JPMA certified to meet stringent safety standards. Be aware of the weight limits that apply to each seat, since exceeding them could result in frame fatigue or other issues.

While it's easy to concentrate on all the extra bells and whistles that come with the latest stroller, it's important to remember that a stroller is basically a baby carrier that will be used for extended durations of time. It must be easy to clean and maintain, and comfortable for both of the passengers. It should also feature a an intuitive, familiar design that allows the person pushing the stroller to easily maneuver it.

Ease of Use

For families who are constantly on the move, a double stroller needs to be easy to maneuver over a variety of terrains. Strollers with features like windows that peek-a-boo, adjustable canopies and sturdy brake systems are essential to ensure the safety of your children. However, there are other factors that make them simpler to use. A stroller should be compact enough to fit into the trunk of your car, but still have plenty of storage space for groceries or other things. Also important are thoughtful touches like a one-parent cup holder or console for parents, as well as snacks for children--all things that can make life with two kids much easier.

In our tests, we assessed each stroller on the basis of its performance on different terrains, as well as its ability to maneuver in tight spaces. We also looked at how simple it was to fold the stroller and then unfold it as well as if a particular feature enhanced the overall functionality. A stroller without rethread straps makes it simple to adjust the seat belts. This is a huge selling point for parents who are always moving around, since it eliminates the need to rethread their harness.

The UPPAbaby 2 Double scored highly in this measure because it offered a wide range of seating configurations, and other accessories that could accommodate expanding families. The wagon-style double stroller can be expanded to accommodate two seats as well as a bassinet, or a toddler riding board that is perfect for active families planning long days on the go with multiple children of different ages. It easily glides over cobblestones, pavements, and ball fields. It can fold flat to be stored in a trunk or closet. The design of this stroller is simple and intuitive and was a big hit with our test participant Kerry. The clever packaging, clearly marked sections and user's manual made it easy to put together this stroller.

Storage

Double strollers can carry twice as much as one single stroller so be sure to ensure you have plenty of storage space. Ideally, you want a stroller that can accommodate the necessities for both kids, including nappies bottles, snacks, and toys, in addition to parents' belongings such as phones, wallets, and keys. Find baskets and pockets under the seats. Also, consider a stroller with an expandable cargo area to accommodate bulky items such as lunch bags and diaper bags.

A good double stroller should be able to adjust as your family expands. For instance certain models have a bassinet attachment that can be used for newborns, and others come with child seats that can grow with your children until they're able to ride on the back of the stroller, Billingsley says. Some double strollers allow older children to share in the fun with riding boards.

There are many double strollers on the market. You can pick from high-performance models that are ideal for rough terrain, or more budget-friendly options that can use on a daily basis. When you're shopping, read reviews from other users and the opinions of families like yours to gain an idea of what to expect from the double stroller you pick.

Double strollers are available in three different designs: tandem, side-by-side and wagon-style. Side-by-side double strollers offer the most flexibility and are perfect for twins or children who are close in age, Billingsley explains. Tandem double umbrella stroller strollers come with two seats arranged in a tandem configuration, facing opposite directions. This is a good option for children of similar age or siblings who prefer to play with one another. Tandem strollers can be difficult to maneuver in tight spaces, and are less likely to fit through doorways than their side-byside counterparts.

If you prefer a wagon-style double stroller, check out this top model from Safety 1st. Our testers were impressed by the fact that this low-cost model comes with a variety of seating options as well as the ability to snap in two infant car seats or a single child riding in an convertible toddler seat. Our testers also loved the comfortable memory foam seats and the 50+ SPF canopy, and foam-filled tires that will never get flat. And when it's time for you to fold, this model needs only a few tugs on the straps on each seat (under the seat where kids sit) to fold in half.
