Selecting a Double Stroller With Infant Car Seat

A double stroller with infant car seat is a necessity for twins or two kids with similar ages. If you're considering buying a stroller, think about your budget as well as how long you intend to use it for.

Kate liked the fact that the stroller was lightweight and easy to move. She also liked the ease with which it folded, but found the buckles that are magnetic difficult to secure.

Size

Size is a crucial aspect to take into consideration when selecting a double stroller with an infant car seat baby. Parents must be able to move the stroller comfortably on the midst of crowded sidewalks and narrow subway gates, which means that it should be compact and slim. The stroller must also be compact and easy to fold, so that it can fit in the trunk of a small vehicles.

Consider a double stroller that has two seats and is able to accommodate a car seat for infants when you plan to have twins or children who are similar in age. These double strollers are more expensive but have a longer lifespan and can be used up to the age of toddler or even beyond. For example our top pick is the UPPAbaby Vista V2 Double has a wide range of seating options and will accommodate two infant car seats or toddler seats that can be converted into bassinets.

We also love strollers that are compatible with different brands of infant car seats, as this offers a wider selection of models for families to choose from. For instance, the UPPAbaby Vista can accept the UPPAbaby Mesa and several other infant car seats with adapters, and it is compatible with the Baby Jogger Glider Board for a third, standing passenger.

Some parents buy a double or single stroller that can be modified to accommodate another child. We suggest purchasing what you need now. You may have another child arrive later than you expected or your first child might not be able to walk. Furthermore, the style of seating on a double stroller that includes an baby car seats can make or break siblings' relationships, especially for kids that are very close in age.

Weight

Double strollers are heavier than single strollers. Double strollers come with two seats and carry more cargo. The weight of the stroller will be heavier. It's crucial to take into account the weight when choosing your ideal model, particularly when you'll be using it for long walks or jogs. The best models will handle the extra weight with a minimum of movement and shifting.

You should also think about the longevity of double-strollers. The more expensive strollers are constructed better and have more seating configuration options which means they last longer than their lower-cost counterparts. The joovy double bundle is one example. It has adapters to fit two infant car seats and can accommodate a secondary passenger via a bassinet that attaches. This configuration can work for twins, children of different ages, or siblings who have an age gap.

For those on a tight budget, they might consider the Baby Trend Double Snap-N-Go an appealing option since it accepts two infant car seats and can be converted into a tandem (single-file) stroller. It's lightweight and compact, making it easy to maneuver despite the additional weight.

Another budget-friendly option is the Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double. It's comparable to more expensive award winners and offers a variety of seating configurations for kids of various ages and stages. The side-by-side design of the seat allows for twins or children of varying ages, and it can be customized by adding accessories like dual canopy twin bassinets, twin bassinets or altered seats that act as toddler seats. The stroller can be folded easily and has a compact footprint, making it easier to fit into the trunk. The stroller is not meant to be used until children can sit without assistance, so children younger than that will require assistance or placed into a car seat.

Convenience

It's easier and less stressful to take your family on a trip by transferring your infant's car seat seamlessly from the car to the stroller. Instead of trying to fold a stroller, while keeping one hand on the infant and the other on a toddler, you can just click the seat into place and then begin moving. This is a great convenience for long journeys, especially when you don't want to have to unbuckle and buckle your child every few minutes.

Parents with twins often choose an option that can accommodate two infant car seats simultaneously. The Graco Fast Action Flip offers this functionality, and also includes an adjustable bench seat that can be used by older siblings. It's not compatible with all infant car seats and can be quite heavy for some families.

Other parents would prefer double strollers with an adapter for car seats built-in that is compatible with all the major infant car seats. Evenflo Pivot Xpand Combo offers a fantastic value for the features it has. It's not the most ideal double-stroller for twins, as it only works with one. However, it's a good choice for many families.

Some double strollers feature an even more complicated process for attaching and detaching the car seat. For instance, the UPPAbaby vist double requires you to push down, and then hear a loud click for confirmation that it's secured properly. It can be a bit more difficult to use in parking lots, especially in the case of hungry or exhausted children. As it grows with your family, we don’t think it’s the best choice for parents with twins. You'll need to buy an additional toddler chair when your children reach an age.

Durability

A double stroller with infant car seats should be sturdy and built to last. It should also fit your budget and lifestyle, whether you intend to use it for few years or more. Take into consideration the quality of the stroller's fabric as well as the components, including its tires, before making your purchase.

A stroller that has a large and deep basket is able to hold plenty of diapers, food items, and other things. A large console for the parents with cup holders can be beneficial, as is an umbrella sunshade that offers adequate coverage. Make sure your stroller can handle off-road terrain and narrow city sidewalks.

Parents with twins may want a side by side stroller to allow equal access and visibility to both children. Others with children of different ages may opt for a tandem stroller that allows the rear child's seat to be raised or lower. Tandem strollers are typically bulkier than single strollers, however, and can cause sibling squabbles if the seats are at different heights.

A stroller with an adjustable handlebar allows you to adjust the height to your liking. Also having a one-hand folding mechanism is convenient. Another thing to look for is a small footprint that fits comfortably in your trunk, and requires little storage space.

A modular stroller, such as the CYBEX Gazelle is a model that offers unbeatable flexibility. It is possible to mix and combine the cots and seating units to accommodate twins, multiples or a single child of varying age. Its robust design and a variety of seating configurations indicate that this high-end model is worth the price if you're planning to keep it for a long period of time.

Safety

A great stroller should be safe for the children riding in the seats as well as the parent pushing them. Alli Cavasino, a certified child passenger safety technician, suggests that you choose a stroller with ergonomic handlebars with easy-to-use breaks and a movable harness. She also suggests avoiding accessories that add to the weight of the stroller, like ride-on boards, or additional child seats.

A double stroller needs to be sturdy enough to navigate a variety of surfaces smoothly, from suburban sidewalks to park trails. It should be strong enough to withstand curbs and bumps with ease and yet flexible enough to climb steep stairs or navigate steep incline. It should also be simple to fold up and squeeze into the trunk of a car, without any compromise in size or maneuverability.

Parents of twins or siblings who are similar in age might want to consider a double stroller that is able to accommodate two car seats for infants. This allows them to transfer asleep children from the car to the stroller without having them wake up. Many of our best-scoring strollers are compatible with a two infant car seat, including the Evenflo Pivot Xpand double travel buggy or the UPPAbaby Vista v2 Double.

Another alternative is the joovy Qool double bundle, which can be used with two infant car seats (car seat adapters are sold separately) and includes an additional Rumble seat that can be converted into a second seat when your children outgrow their car seat. It offers stadium-style seating with plenty of space for legs and can be configured to let your kids face each other or the world. It cannot accept two bassinets, a baby car seat, or riding boards at the exact same time. However, it is a great option for families with multiple young children.
