Buying Guide For Double Strollers

A double stroller is a great investment if you have two children with similar age. These narrow tandem strollers or versatile side-by-side buggies help you keep an eye on both kids at the same time braving the grocery aisle or the parks, and whatever else life throws your way.

Comfort

When you are looking for a double stroller, the comfort is a key aspect to take into consideration. This can include both the seating arrangements and the overall size of the stroller which affects the convenience and storage. "Parents must determine what the stroller weighs as well as its dimensions when folded," says child development expert and mom Katie Billingsley of Fourth Trimester Postnatal Retreat. "They should also consider the recline options for seats and age ranges to ensure a perfect fit for their family."

A quality double car seat stroller stroller should be durable enough to travel on various surfaces with ease, from suburban sidewalks to park trails, and from infant car seats to toddler booster seats. It should also provide flexible seating options for children of different ages and comfort features like windows that peek out and adjustable canopy to protect children from rain or sun.

For a lot of families double strollers will be used from birth and into the teen years, so it's essential to think about seating options. Billingsley says there are two main categories: in-line with one seat in front of the other and side-byside, with seats next to one another. "Some parents prefer an in-line model due to its sleek look and versatility, whereas others prefer a wagon-style stroller to make the most space for bulky items or grocery bags."

While some products may have different recline options - with one seat being almost flat, while the other is upright--this type of disparity is more common in in-line models. Billingsley recommends choosing a product that offers both a nearly flat recline and leg rest adjustments for both seats to ensure both children can lie back comfortably.

Then, she suggests looking for strollers that have storage compartments that will allow parents to easily access snacks, toys and personal items while on the move. She adds that it's also beneficial to choose a stroller that has an organizer console for parents or a parent bag that is attached to the handlebars, which can help keep essentials close at hand.

Many of the top-rated double strollers can be enlarged to allow parents to alter the configuration depending on the needs of their family. For instance the Mockingbird Expandable is a highly rated double stroller that can be used with a single seat from birth and later converted to a tandem (with a second seat and bassinet) as the child gets older.

Safety

Double strollers need to be able to handle the weight of two passengers and any additional cargo. Strollers need to be easy to maneuver and push, especially on difficult terrain and in tight spaces. The best compact double stroller strollers feature ergonomic handlebars that can be adjusted in height, making it easier for parents to maintain a good posture when pushing them. A harness that does not need to be rethread which makes the adjustment of seat belts more quickly and easily to do, is a nice feature to look out for. Safety features include a sturdy brake system and wheels that slide over any surface.

Some parents opt for an arrangement that allows both children to view one another during family outings. This arrangement can stop sibling fights over which child gets to sit where, but it's not foolproof. If the seats are different levels, a child might punch or kick one another during a walk, when the seats are on different levels.

A tandem-style stroller is great option for parents with twins or siblings that are similar in age. It lets them see both children at once. Double strollers can be more spacious, and may not fit through some interior doors. Consider a single-to double stroller that can be converted from a single to a double in many ways. The most popular models are the CYBEX gazelle S.

If you're looking for a tandem or a side-by-side stroller, ensure that the stroller has been JPMA certified to meet strict safety standards. Also pay attention to the weight limits that apply to each seat, as over-weighting could lead to frame fatigue or other issues.

It's easy to get caught up in the bells and whistles, but it's important to keep in mind that strollers are essentially baby carriers that are used for extended time. It should be comfortable for both parents and children as well as easy to clean and maintain, and ideally it should have an intuitive, familiar design so that the person pushing it can effortlessly move it around without having to think twice about how to move forward, turn left or right, or apply the brakes.

Easy of Use

For families that are on the move, a double push chair stroller needs to be able to navigate different terrains. Strollers that have features like windows that can be opened and closed, adjustable canopy and sturdy brake systems are essential to ensure the safety of your children. But there are other features that make them simpler to use. For example the stroller must be small enough to fit into the trunk of your car, yet provide ample storage space for groceries and other belongings. It is also essential to include thoughtful features, like the cup holder for one parent as well as consoles for parents and snacks on trays. These are able to make traveling with two kids much easier.

During our testing, we evaluated each stroller based on its ability to perform on different surfaces and its ability to maneuver through tight spaces. We also looked at the ease with which it was possible to fold and unfold and whether or not a specific feature improved the overall performance of the stroller. A stroller that does not have rethread straps makes it simple to adjust the seat belts. This is a huge selling point for parents who are constantly in motion, as it removes the need to rethread their harness.

The UPPAbaby Vista v2 Double scored high in this measure, since it offered an impressive range of seating options and accessories to accommodate families that are growing. The wagon-style double stroller can be expanded to allow for a second seat, a bassinet or even a toddler riding board that is perfect for active families planning long trips with multiple kids of various age groups. It glides easily over cobblestones and pavements and ball fields. It can fold flat to fit in a trunk or a closet. Our tester Kerry was impressed by the simple, intuitive nature of this stroller's design. The sleek packaging, clearly marked sections and user guide made it easy to put together this stroller.

Stores

A double stroller has the potential to hold twice as much stuff than a single stroller, therefore, you should look for plenty of storage space. Ideally, you'll want a stroller that is able to hold the basic necessities for both kids: nappies, bottles, snacks and toys, along with parents' belongings like wallets, phones, and keys. Look for pockets and baskets under the seats. Also, think about a stroller with an expandable cargo area to accommodate bulky items such as lunch bags and diaper bags.

A good double pram stroller stroller should be able to adapt to the needs of your family. For instance, some models include a bassinet attachment that can accommodate newborns, while others feature child seats that can expand with your children until they're able to switch to riding on the back of the stroller, Billingsley says. Some double strollers include a rider board to let older siblings take part in the fun.

There's a wide selection of double strollers on the market, ranging from elegant, high-performance models that excel on rough terrain to budget-friendly models that are more for everyday use. When shopping, take a look at reviews and recommendations of families similar to yours to get a better idea of what you can expect from the double stroller that you choose.

Double strollers are available in three different styles: tandem, side-by-side and wagon style. Side-by-side double strollers offer most versatility and are suitable for twins or children who are similar in age, Billingsley explains. Tandem pushchairs Double strollers on the other hand, feature two seats that are arranged close to each other and facing in opposite directions--a ideal choice for children who are the same age or for siblings who love to interact with one another. Tandem strollers are more difficult to maneuver through narrow spaces, and are less likely to fit into doorways.

Check out this top selection by Safety 1st if you prefer a wagon style double stroller. Testers loved how this affordable model has multiple seating options, including the ability to click in two infant car seats or a single child riding in the convertible toddler seat. Our experts also praised memory foam seats and canopy that has 50+ SPF, and foam-filled wheels that never go flat. When it's time to fold, this model needs only a few tugs on the straps on each seat (under where the kids sit) to fold it in half.
