Double Stroller With Car Seat Compatability
Parents of twins and other multiples will want a double stroller that is able to hold two infant car seats at once. The TwinRoo+ is a tough, frame stroller that takes 23 different car seat models (car seats and adapters are sold separately).
It also has a large storage basket, parent cup holders and reversible seating with the best legroom between the two seats.
The Baby Trend(r) Universal Double Snap-N-Go (r)
The Baby Trend(r) Universal Double Snap-N-Go(r) is a great stroller that will fit the majority of infant car seat carriers. It has a large storage basket and parent tray with two cup holders. The stroller is lightweight and folds easily to store or transport. It is one of our most maneuverable strollers and is a great side-by-side design. It didn't perform well in our jog tests and had difficulty with more steeper curbs. The swivel wheels at the front don't seem to be able to catch obstacles.
This stroller can be used with all major brands of infant car seats, and the adapters are easy to install. The stroller can only accommodate one infant car seat at a time so parents of twins must consider a different option if they want to use their infant car seats together. The UPPAbaby Vista v2 Double and Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double are top-rated options that work with two infant car seats simultaneously.
The Baby Trend is easy-to-use and comes with a nice basket however, it falls short of our ride comfort measurement. The stroller doesn't have shocks to withstand the vibrations and bumps of the road, which can be hard on little passengers. The absence of a reclined seat means that children will feel every bump on the road. It may not be an issue as passengers age, but it is important to take into consideration when your children are still infants or toddlers.
The frame stroller weighs less than 40 pounds. It is however heavy when packed with cargo and passengers. It is difficult to jog with no jog lock and it had trouble navigating grass, gravel and sidewalks during our tests. The BOB Revolution is a lighter option for jogging, weighing in at 41 lbs. It's still difficult to carry, but there is a handle that can be used to accomplish this. The jog strollers benefit from having larger wheels for better off-road performance. They have a better-built chassis and are made of durable materials that can withstand long-term usage.
The Contours(r), Options Elite V2 double stroller
The Contours(r), Options Elite V2 has the features parents are raving about: reversible seating, one-hand recline, adjustable leg rests and zippered extensions on both canopies. It also comes with a parent cupholder. Plus, it has some exciting new features such as the height-adjustable handle as well as quilted seats. It also comes with seven different seating configurations that include the difficult-to-find double rear facing position, allowing kids to see each their friends while watching dad and mom.
One of the great things about this stroller is that it is compatible with a variety of infant car seat brands, which gives families a wide range of options and prevents them from being locked into one brand when it comes to strollers that work with baby car seats. The Options Elite is compatible with Graco and Britax infant car seats using an adapter that is universal that also works with the UPPAbaby Mesa and Baby Jogger City Select double car seats. It has an additional adapter for when you have twins, or need to use two infant car seat.
It is not a side by side stroller so it feels like one stroller. It is able to be used in a variety of doorways and aisles. It's not as easy to maneuver as a jogging stroller however it's still a great option for road trips and shopping excursions. It weighs slightly more than other double strollers, however it's not too heavy for most petite women to lift and move.
The seats are comfortable for children and there's a decent storage basket. The canopy is also spacious and can be removed to provide more sun protection. However, it doesn't have a large storage space for necessities for parents and some families may find difficult to access.
The stroller comes with an electronic foot brake and safety harness. It also comes with five-point harnesses for every child. The front wheels can be locked for added stability and the ergonomic handles provide a comfortable grip. It folds down with an easy process, and it stands when folded. It doesn't fold with one hand as some of the top strollers in this list, but it's still not difficult after a little practice.
The Evenflo Pivot Double
Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double stroller is a budget-friendly, stylish and contemporary stroller that can expand with your family. It offers car seat compatibility, reversible seats and a sleek frame. This stroller has easy-to-use everyday features and a convenient one-handed fold, with a self-stand which is impressive for a lower-priced model. It has a more substantial feel than most of the competitors, and smaller wheels, which makes it difficult to push off the road, when turning in tight corners or through doorways that are narrow.
This stroller can be used with two infant car seats or toddler seats (sold separately) - no adapters required. Adding a second seat expands the frame of the stroller in just a few seconds without tools or extra parts, and it is available in 23 configurations in the USA to accommodate toddler and infant seats at different heights in both parent-facing or forward-facing modes. The second seat can be used in stroller mode to accommodate older children or to support the baby in an angle that is comfortable in infant mode.
The large, spacious basket and the back-and-front-accessible seat pocket add to the utility of this stroller. Additionally, the cushioned, contoured seat offers maximum comfort for the passengers. A retractable canopy protects children from the sun's rays, and a peek-aboo window allows parents to keep an eye on their little ones.
The Stroller Rider Board accessory can be used to create a tandem so that siblings can ride together, or as an alternative for the standard toddler seat. The flex-hold cupholder can accommodate a variety of drinks and the stroller can be foldable with the toddler seat attached, making it easy to access storage space.
The majority of reviewers like how easily the Pivot Xpand double stroller expands to include an additional seat. Some reviewers have commented that attaching an infant car seat to the mounts integrated in the stroller can be a bit difficult, however, attaching a second toddler's seat is much easier and quicker. Evenflo provides the option of video chat for customers to ask questions or receive assistance with mounting car seats. The only other issue is the relatively short warranty.
double buggy from birth Push Chairs And Prams For 2
The Bravo For 2 is an ideal stroller for siblings of similar age. It is simple to put together straight out of the box and unlike other sit-and-stand strollers it is surprisingly light at just 23 pounds. The seats recline in a variety of positions so that your baby or toddler can nap. There is also a footrest for older children who need it. The padded handlebar is positioned in a manner that allows older children can grasp it while standing, even when wearing mittens. Many parents have reported that this feature alone makes it safer than the vast majority of its rivals.
This stroller comes with a cushioned back seat that can hold children up to two years old. This lets you keep your infant rear-facing for longer and is a major advantage for parents who adhere to the #TurnAfter2 movement that encourages babies and toddlers to keep their rears facing until at least two years old. This seat is simple to buckle and has the same five-point harness found on the front seat.
Another benefit of the Bravo For 2 is that it can accept an Chicco KeyFit and Fit2 car seat on the front. Simply push down on the front seat, slide into your infant carrier and listen for the sound which indicates that it is safe. This feature alone makes it one of the most adaptable double strollers on the market and will help you avoid wasting money on a stroller that is only used once that could end up in your garage or donated to a secondhand store in your area.
The only issue with this stroller is that it doesn't come with a parent tray or cup holders and the storage space is somewhat restricted. It's a great choice for families who have one child who is walking all the way and a child in a car seat up to the front. It is also an excellent choice for travel as it can fold up into an incredibly compact size that can be gate-checked on an airplane or put away in your trunk.
