Choosing a Double Travel Stroller

A double stroller can be an essential item when you have multiple children. Find one that is lightweight and compact enough to fit into the trunk of your car or an airplane overhead bin.

Avoid exceeding the recommended weight of the seat to avoid frame fatigue. Other essentials include adjustable canopy, versatile seating for children of different ages and plenty of storage.

Easy of Use

Double strollers are often accused of being heavy and difficult to put together. However, they have improved a lot since the 1980s. The most effective double strollers are sleek and support a range of customizations to meet the needs of your family, whether you're looking for a tandem (single-file seating) or a side-byside configuration. They're also light enough for travel and to fit in the trunks of cars as well as on planes, where they can be checked for gate access just like any other luggage.

A stroller that's easy to navigate over different surfaces and fits into small spaces is especially important for families who live in urban environments, where space is limited and public transportation is the primary method of transportation. The lightweight and agile double strollers that we tested can weave through crowded streets and tight subway gates. They are essential for urban living.

We look at a range of factors when we evaluate the stroller's ease of use, including the ease with which it can be fold and set up and also if it can be adjusted to accommodate family members of varying heights. We also look for a spacious storage bin and reclining seats that are simple to access and adjust and also the highest weight limit for the canopy and seat. The Zoe Twin+ was rated top in this category due to its large canopy, ample storage bin and easy fold.

If you're looking to purchase a light stroller that fits into car trunks that are small, the Mountain Buggy Nano Duo is an excellent choice. It's one of the tiniest double strollers we've tested, and it folds down into a compact package that's easier to schlep up and down stairs than many other models. It's the lightest double umbrella-style stroller we've ever tried which makes it a great choice for travel. Certain airlines will allow you to gate-check the stroller.

A car seat with a side-by-side that can hold two infants is essential for parents of twins. Some double strollers such as the Graco DuoGlider Elite allow you to use two infant car seats at the same time which can save time and energy. You may also want to think about a tandem stroller that will allow you to keep your children in ear and in sight.

Comfort

A padded, high-quality seat is crucial to ensure your children's comfort during strolls. You should choose a stroller with a reclining backrest, a backrest that can be adjusted, and a spacious seat so that your child can sit up or stretch out. Look for a stroller with an expansive undercarriage that can hold bags of storage or other items without affecting the positioning of the seats.

The weight and size of a double stroller can also impact its performance. Select a model with solid wheels and suspension that can effortlessly glide over rough surfaces. A quality double stroller will also turn in tight spaces, navigate narrow hallways and crowded subway gates and sidewalks. If you intend to use a double stroller regularly pick a model that folds quickly in a matter of a few steps and can fit into your trunk or in a compact vehicle.

Parents traveling with small children typically depend on a double stroller for getting them around, especially in urban areas where space is at the limit and public transportation is common. A compact and modular double stroller like the CYBEX Gazelle S is the ideal choice for this situation, since it lets parents mix and match seat units as well as cot attachments and car seats in order to meet the changing needs of their family, including when infants outgrow their infant car seats.

A double umbrella stroller is an alternative option. These are usually lighter and smaller than the standard ones. They are generally ideal for those traveling, as they fold easily and quickly, can be gate checked on airplanes, and typically meet Disney's stroller size requirements. Many of them have ample storage space for snacks, toys and other gear.

A side-by-side double stroller is ideal for parents with twins, or siblings who are close in age. This kind of double stroller is typically less expensive than a modular model, and the seats typically have ample recline options, legroom and canopies that provide ample coverage. A side-by-side double stroller comes with one disadvantage: it can be difficult to navigate through narrow hallways and overcrowded sidewalks. Its larger frame can also make it harder to navigate through certain doors.

Folding is easy

The folding ease is the most important consideration when selecting a double travel pram. This is especially important if you have to fold your stroller in tight spaces or on busy streets with cars and pedestrians near. The best strollers fold in a few simple steps that are intuitive and easy. They fold quickly and without any twitches that could lead to body parts colliding against each one another or sliding. Some of our top double travel stollers that fold easily are the Evenflo Pivot Xplore and Babyzen YOYO2 connect Double.

When looking for a double stroller, it's helpful to consider how long you plan to use it. If you are planning to keep your children in the same seats for at least the time of their preschool years, you may be interested in the side-by-side design which allows you to add an bassinets for infants or car seats. If you think your children will be ready to transition into separate seats before, an double stroller that converts to a convertible is a good option.

A few of the top double strollers we've reviewed offer a near-flat recline, which makes it comfortable for your children to sleep or have a snack break while on the move. Some products offer the option of a different recline for each seat. For instance the front seat of the UPPAbaby Double v2 Double is almost flat while the second one is upright. This could result in kids fighting over which seat they should sit in.

Also, you'll need to consider the size of your car's trunk, as some double strollers are a bit bulky and won't fit in the back of smaller cars. We recommend selecting a double stroller that can fit comfortably in your trunk and is easily folded and stored away when not in use. We also recommend double strollers that feature smaller footprints with a low weight and simple design, like the ZOE Twin+. It's the smallest double stroller we test. With just 19 pounds, it's among the lightest strollers to still allow for airline check-in weight limits for luggage. It's Disney-size-approved!

Stores

The huge strollers from the 1980s might have given double strollers a bad name, but they've progressed a lot. Modern, sleek, modular strollers are available in tandem or side-byside formats. They can be tailored to accommodate children from birth to kindergarten. Some models also accommodate infant car seats and a riding board that can be attached. You might have to pay more initially but the investment will pay off in the form of the flexibility and resale.

Some of the things to take into consideration when looking for a double travel stroller include the weight limit for each seat, storage space and whether each seat has recline. A recline that is deep can allow for easy napping while moving about and a canopy with UV protection will prevent your child from overheating. Some double strollers also offer parent-facing cupholders and dual snack trays for on-the-go convenience.

Another aspect to be aware of is the weight of the stroller, as this will impact the ability of you to carry it around and maneuver it into tight places. Some of the most lightweight double strollers, such as the Kolcraft Cloud Plus, weigh less than 23 pounds and can carry children up to 40lbs. It's lighter than a single stroller and is easy to carry through airports and into cars.

If you're on a tight budget, check out used options on sites like Facebook Marketplace or Craigslist, which often have gently-used double strollers for sale at bargain prices. Double strollers in good shape are free of rust and loose screws. If you are considering using a used double-stroller with your kids make sure you do a thorough inspection for any issues, including checking the wheel axles. You can also find strollers available for rental in certain cities, but this isn't a possibility everywhere and can be pricey if you plan to use the stroller frequently.
