Double Stroller With Car Seat Compatability
Parents of twins or other multiples might need a double stroller that can accommodate two infant car seats simultaneously. 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, cup holders for parents and reversible seating that offers 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 most infant car seat carriers. It comes with a large storage basket for storage, as well as a parent tray with two cup holders. The stroller is light and folds easily for storage or travel. It's among our most maneuverable strollers and has a good side-by-side design. It did not perform well in our jog tests, and struggled on more steeper curbs. The front wheels with swivels have trouble with catching on obstacles.
The adapters for this stroller are easy to put in and work with all major brands. However, the stroller only accepts one infant car seat at a time. Parents of twins must consider a different alternative if they plan to use their infant car seats together. The UPPAbaby Vista v2 Double and Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double are top choices that can be used with two infant car seats at the same time.
The Baby Trend is easy-to-use and comes with a nice basket but it falls short on our ride comfort measure. The stroller doesn't have shocks to absorb the vibrations and bumps of the road, which can be difficult on small passengers. The lack of reclined seats means that children will feel every bump on the road. This might not be a problem as the passengers get older but it's something to consider if your kids are toddlers or infants.
It's a relatively light frame stroller at under 40 lbs. It feels heavy with cargo and passengers. It's difficult to jog without a jog lock and it had trouble traversing gravel, grass and sidewalks during our tests. The BOB Revolution Flex is a better choice for jogging and lighter at 41 lbs. It is still difficult to lift and carry, but it has a designated handle to help you do this. The jog-strollers feature larger wheels that provide better performance off-road. They have a more robust chassis and are made from robust materials that can stand up to long-term use.
The Contours(r), Options Elite V2 double stroller
The Contours(r) Options Elite V2 includes all the features parents love: reversible seats, one-hand reclining, adjustable leg rests, zippered extensions to both canopies and a parent cupholder. Plus, it has some new great features like the height-adjustable handle and quilted seats. It has seven different configurations of seating, including the difficult-to-find double-rear-facing seat. This allows kids to look at each other while watching their parents.
The stroller's compatibility to multiple infant car seats is among its most appealing features. It provides families with more choices and prevents them from being confined to a single brand of stroller that works with a baby car seat. The Options Elite is compatible with Graco and Britax infant car seats using a universal adapter that also works with the UPPAbaby Mesa and Baby Jogger City Select double car seats. It even has an additional adapter for parents who have twins or want to use two infant car seats.
It's not a side-byside stroller, so it has the look of a single stroller and can be used in all doorways and aisles with ease. It's not as maneuverable as a jogging stroller however it's still a great option for shopping trips and road excursions. It weighs a bit more than other double strollers but it's not too heavy for most petite women to lift and maneuver.
The seats are comfortable for kids and the storage bin is of a decent size. The canopy is large as well, and can be removed for an extra shade. It does not have much storage space for the parent's requirements, which can be a problem for certain families.
This stroller comes with an electronic foot brake and safety harness. It also comes with five-point harnesses for each child. The front wheels can be locked for added stability, and the ergonomic handles provide the user with a comfortable grip. It's easy to fold and rises up when folded. It's not folded with just one hand, like some of the other top strollers on this list however, it's not difficult to do after a bit of practice.
The Evenflo Pivot Double
The Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double is an excellent budget-friendly option that can grow with your family, providing car seat compatibility and reversible seating within a sleek modern stroller frame. This stroller is easy to use everyday features as well as a simple, one-handed fold that self-stands which is impressive for a lower-priced model. It does have an unmistakably heavier feel than much of the competition and smaller wheels that struggle with pushing off-road or in tight turns and narrow doors.
This stroller can be used with two infant car seats or toddler seats (sold separately) and no adapters are required. The addition of a second seat can expand the frame of the stroller in just a few seconds without tools or extra parts, and it can be used in 23 configurations in the USA to accommodate toddler and infant seating at different heights in parent-facing or forward-facing modes. The second seat can be used in stroller mode to accommodate larger children or to cradle the baby in an angle that is comfortable in infant mode.
The huge, large basket and the back-and-front-accessible pocket add to the utility of this stroller. Moreover, the cushioned, contoured seat offers maximum comfort for passengers. double pram pushchair protects children from the sun's rays and a peek-a-boo window allows parents to monitor their children.
The addition of the Stroller Rider Board creates a tandem for siblings to ride together, or be utilized as an alternative to the standard toddler seat. A flex-hold cup holder can hold different sizes of drinks, and the stroller folds with a toddler seat attached for easy access to storage space.
The majority of reviewers are pleased with how easily the Pivot Xpand stroller can be extended to include a second seat. Some reviewers have mentioned that attaching an infant car seat to the integrated mounts can be difficult, but attaching a second toddler's seat is much easier and quicker. Evenflo offers the option of video chat for customers to ask any questions or receive assistance with attaching car seats. The only downside is the relatively short warranty.
The Jeep Bravo For 2
The Bravo For 2 is a great stroller for siblings who are close in age. It's easy to put together right out from the box and, unlike many sit-and-stand options, it is relatively lightweight at under 23 pounds. The seats recline in a variety of positions so that your infant or toddler can lie down. 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 even if they're wearing gloves. Many parents have reported that this feature alone makes it more secure than the vast majority of its rivals.
This stroller also has a padded seat in the back that can accommodate children up to about two years older. This lets you keep your child rear-facing for longer and is a huge benefit for parents who are a part of the #TurnAfter2 movement that encourages toddlers and babies to remain rear-facing until they are at least two years old. This seat is simple to buckle and has the same five-point harness found on the front seat.
The Bravo For 2 has another advantage: it can accept the Chicco KeyFit car seat or Fit2 in the front. It is simple to secure your infant carrier by lowering the front seat before snapping it into. This makes it one of the most versatile double strollers on the market. It also allows you to avoid purchasing a stroller that's only used once and will end in your garage, or donated to a second-hand shop.
The only drawback to this stroller is that it doesn't include a tray for parents or cup holders and the storage space is a bit limited. But, it's an excellent option for families with one kiddo who will be walking for the entire duration of their stroll, and a younger sibling in a car seat up the front. It's also a great choice for travel as it can fold up into an incredibly compact size that can be gate-checked a plane or stow away in your trunk.
