A double car seat stroller is a must-have for twins or two children. The Joovy TwinRoo+ allows infant car seats facing either way, and comes with a sit-and stand arrangement for older children.

A baby jogger is a different option for parents who want to take their children on a run journey. What stroller is best for you?

Easy to Fold

The most reliable double strollers fold up easily regardless of whether you want to squeeze them into your car or in a narrow entrance. The majority of models have an lever or button that flips the seat back and folds the base for storage in a compact space. Some models have a handle at the top that you can use to lift the stroller and carry it, while other models come with an integrated kickstand that can hold the folded stroller upright.

A double stroller that can fit two infant car seats and an additional riding board is a great option if you're a parent of twins or plan to have more than one child in the near future. The Baby Trend Double Snap-N-Go is a popular option. It is compatible with all infant car seats and also has seating for both children to enjoy the sights. This model however, doesn't "snap" the car seats into place rather, you tie them into place using a strap net and the edge of the car seat rests on the edge of the frame.

Look into strollers with the rear and front wheels that lock to facilitate better steering on uneven terrain. The parent tray features two cup holders, a covered storage space, and a padded handle with three positions for comfort and control. Certain models come with an large basket that can accommodate more gear.

For those who love the outdoors, a jogging stroller could be a better option than a standard stroller, however, it can be difficult to lift and carry with no handle. Some jogging strollers come with hooks to attach to a car seat for infants, which can give parents up to eight months more time to walk. However, this can be a risk for babies younger than six months. It is recommended to discuss this with your pediatrician prior to making a decision. The BOB Revolution Flex 3.0 Duallie and Thule Urban Glide 2 Double are lightweight and have convenient one-hand, standing folds. The Joovy Caboose Ultralight Graphite, that can accommodate two toddlers or a child in the main seating position, is a great choice for outdoor activities.

Sturdy

A double stroller can be an invaluable tool for families who are on the move. It should be strong enough to stand up to various surfaces, like suburban sidewalks and park trails. It must also be comfortable for infants and toddlers, who may want to explore and sit up. Idealy it should be able of accommodating various seating arrangements for children at different age groups. It can also be easily tucked away in the trunk of your car.

This multi-functional tandem stroller from CYBEX is a great choice for all kinds of terrain. It comes with a reclining seat for toddlers and accepts an infant car seat. The adjustable leg and footrests ensure that children are comfortable. Its generous UPF 50+ canopy with peekaboo windows, as well as adjustable leg rests offer plenty of sun protection for both seats. The baby bouncer board allows kids to ride in either of the seats or stand on it. The no-rethread harness buckles are among the easiest we've tested, making it easy to get them into and out.

This double pushchairs for twins stroller is compact and light despite being a two-person stroller. It also has plenty of storage, including a large cargo net beneath the seats, and a large basket on top. Parents love the padded handlebars and the way that the seats recline. However, some people complain that the backs of the seats aren't able to fully collapse into an entirely flat position.

Another barebones, lightweight tandem stroller is this model by Kolcraft, which weighs less than 23lbs and can accommodate children up to 40 pounds per seat (80 lbs total). It has nice-sized pop-out canopies which provide shade and include windows that can be opened, a self-standing fold with a carrying strap for easy moving around and 7-inch swivel lock front wheels as well as 10-inch back wheels that have suspension for a smooth ride.

The seats come with a no-rethread safety harness that is simple and quick to secure. They also come with plenty of storage under the seat without causing any disturbance to passengers.

Convenient Storage

It's important to take into consideration the amount of storage strollers offer, particularly when you have two kids and their toys. Some of our favorite strollers come with plenty of storage. They come with a large basket which can hold both the adult equipment and snacks for children. The UPPAbaby's easy, one-hand fold means you don't have to strain your back when you're ready to put it away.

Other models, such as the Joovy TwinRoo+ Car Seat Frame Double Stroller, have less space but offer decent flexibility for a reasonable price. This model is compatible with 23 different infant car seats and cradles each seat which is a major advantage over other twin frames that strap cars into place and aren't built to last as long as the infant car seat itself.

Many parents of twins select tandem strollers that can handle both infant car seats at the same time, but these strollers often cost significantly more than single strollers and come with less life span as kids get older. For a more budget-friendly option that still works as your twins grow, look for a wagon that's designed to transport both car seats and has two canopy options as well as a parent tray that is convenient with cup holders.

While it's crucial to ensure that your stroller is capable of handling all the weight and movement that you'll be placing on it, you'll also want to make sure your kids can sit comfortably. Our testers examined padding, shoulder strap adjustments that were easy to adjust, and buckles that didn't require more than one hand to operate. Some models, such as the UPPAbaby Vista V2 and Evenflo Pivot Xpand are equipped with reclining seats that let children sleep comfortably. Other models, like the Joovy Caboose Ultralight Graphite and Graco Duet, have seats with limited recline options.

Another feature to consider is the location and number of sunshades. Some models, like the UPPAbaby Vista v2 and Evenflo Pivot, have dual canopies that cover both seats and others, like the Joovy Caboose and Graco Duet, have a single canopy with an opening window to let the rear passenger in. This is a great option in the event that your children tend to fall asleep in the same position, but it's worth remembering that they'll only have only a small amount of coverage when the window is open.

Comfortable

The most important thing about a stroller to consider is its comfort. Choose a sturdy, well-padded seat that's big enough for both kids and also has recline positions. The canopy should provide adequate shade, and the tray for parents should include two cup holders. Other features to consider include the foot brake, lockable front wheels, and an organizer for parents which can store snacks and diaper bags.

The top double strollers for cars also include safety features to help your child feel safe. Pick a model that has a 5-point harness that holds your child's hips and shoulders, the most rigid parts of their body. This kind of restraint is more secure than a lap belt as it shifts the force from an accident away and into the seat.

You should also consider how the stroller will fit into your home. The majority of parents have a small amount of storage space, so be sure that the stroller can fit in your trunk or closet before you purchase it. Also, you should measure the width of all doors that you'll need to pass through with the stroller in its open. The standard doorways are between 30 and 36 inches wide. However there are some that are a bit narrower.

If you're looking for a budget-friendly option, the Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double offers an adjustable seating option that can work with two infant car seats as well as two toddler seats that can be oriented forward or backward. This model is comparable to some of the higher-end double buggy sale strollers. However, it's much more affordable for families with growing children. The one-hand fold and front foot brake make it simple to move, and the 3-position handle that is padded is ideal for mom or dad. Located beneath the oversized cargo basket is a convenient back zippered compartment that can be used to access larger items. The front and rear swivel wheels have suspension to ensure a smooth ride on different terrains. In addition, the harness with no rethread allows you to quickly and easily to secure your child's seat belts. It's machine washable, and easy to spot clean, too.
