Double Stroller With Car Seat Compatability
Parents with twins or other multiples will require a double stroller that is able to hold two infant car seats at once. The TwinRoo+ is a tough frame stroller that can accommodate 23 different car seat models (car seats and adapters sold separately).
The car also comes with a large storage basket as well as cup holders for parents and reversible seats with the best legroom available in its class 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 is compatible with the majority of infant car seats. It comes with an ample storage basket as well as a parent tray with two cup holders. The stroller is lightweight and folds easily for storage or travel. It's among the most user-friendly strollers and is very maneuverable for a side-byside design. It doesn't do well in our jog test, and has trouble with higher curbs. The front wheels that swivel struggle to stay on obstacles.
The adapters for this stroller are easy to install and work with most major brands. The stroller only accepts one infant car seat at a time, so parents of twins must consider a different option if they wish to use their infant carseats together. The UPPAbaby Vista v2 Double and the Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double are top choices that can be used with two infant car seats simultaneously.
The Baby Trend is easy-to-use and has a nice basket, however, it isn't quite up to our ride comfort metric. The stroller isn't equipped with shocks to cushion the bumps and vibrations of the road which can be a challenge for small passengers. Additionally, the absence of a reclined seat, children will feel every bump in the road. This might not be an issue when the passengers age, but it's an important thing to consider if your kids are young toddlers or infants.
It's a relatively lightweight frame stroller, weighing less than 40lbs. However it feels heavy when loaded with passengers and cargo. The absence of an lock for jogging makes it difficult to jog and it struggled in navigating gravel, grass, and sidewalks in our tests. The BOB Revolution Flex is a better option for jogging, and it weighs less at just 41 pounds. It is difficult to carry and lift, but it has a designated handle for this purpose. The jog-strollers feature larger wheels, which provide superior performance off-road. They also have a more sturdy chassis and are made of durable materials that can be used for a long time.
The Contours(r) Options Elite V2 Double Stroller
The Contours(r), Options Elite V2 includes the features parents are raving about: reversible seating, one-hand recline, adjustable leg rests and zippered extensions for both canopies. It also has a parent cupholder. Additionally, it comes with new great features like the height-adjustable handle and quilted seats. It comes with seven different types of seating, including the hard-to-find double-rear-facing seat. This allows kids to look at each other while watching their parents.
One of the great things about this stroller is that it's compatible with many infant car seat brands, giving families a variety of options and prevents them from being confined to one brand when it is about strollers that work with baby car seats. The Options Elite is compatible with Graco infant car seats as well as Britax double car seats. It also supports the UPPAbaby Mesa or Baby Jogger City Select double seats. It also has an additional adapter for parents who have twins, or wish to use two infant car seats.
It's not a side-by-side stroller so it feels like a single stroller. It can be used in numerous aisles and doors. It's not as maneuverable as a jogging stroller, but it's still a great choice for shopping trips and road excursions. It weighs a bit heavier than other double strollers, but it's not too heavy for most petite women to carry and maneuver.
The seats are quite comfortable for children, and there's a decent-sized storage basket. The canopy is also large and can be opened for more sun protection. However, it doesn't provide ample storage space for necessities for parents and some families may consider to be a hassle.
This stroller has a foot brake and a safety harness. It also comes with five-point harnesses for every child. The front wheels are lockable for extra stability and the ergonomic handles offer the user with a comfortable grip. It folds down with ease and then it can stand when folded. Although it doesn't feature a one-hand fold like some of the other top strollers on this list it's not a problem to accomplish with a bit of practice and the process is quicker than some other tandem models.
The Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double
Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double stroller is a stylish, budget-friendly and contemporary stroller that can grow with your family. It comes with car seat compatibility, reversible seating, and a stylish frame. This stroller has easy-to-use everyday features and a convenient one-handed fold, with a self-stand which is impressive for a model that is priced lower. It has a firmer feel than most of the other models, and has smaller wheels which make it difficult to push off-road when turning in tight corners or through narrow doorways.
This stroller can be used with two infant car seats or toddler seats (sold separately) - no adapters needed. The frame of the stroller can be expanded in a matter of seconds, by adding an additional seat. This is made without the need of tools or extra parts. It can also be set up in 23 different ways across the USA, to fit toddlers and infants at different heights. The second seat can also be used to secure baby in a comfortable position in infant mode or, for older children, in stroller mode with three reclining positions as well as an adjustable footrest that can be adjusted to five positions.
The huge, large basket and the back-and-front-accessible pocket add to the utility of this stroller. Moreover, the padded, contoured seat ensures the most comfortable ride for the passengers. A retractable canopy protects children from the sun's rays and the window that lets parents peek in to keep an eye on their children.
The Stroller Rider Board accessory can be added to create a tandem, so that siblings can share a ride or as an alternative to the standard toddler seat. A flex-hold cup holder can hold different sizes of drinks and the stroller can fold with the toddler seat to allow easy access to storage space.
Many reviewers are impressed with the ease with which Pivot Xpand double stroller expands to accommodate the second seat. Some have mentioned that it's difficult to connect an infant car seat on the integrated mounts, whereas attaching the second toddler seat is much easier and faster. Evenflo offers the option of video chat for customers to ask questions or get assistance with mounting car seats. The only other major drawback is the relatively short warranty.
The Jeep Bravo For 2
The Bravo For 2 is a ideal stroller for children who are close in age. It is easy to assemble straight out of the box and, unlike many sit-and-stand options it is 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 available for older children who need it. The padded handlebar is positioned so that older children can grip it even when wearing gloves. Many parents have reported that this feature alone makes it more secure than the vast majority of its competitors.
This stroller also comes with a padded seat that can be used by children up to about two years old. This lets you keep your child rear-facing for longer and is a major advantage for parents who adhere to the #TurnAfter2 campaign that encourages toddlers and infants to be rear-facing until they reach the age of two years old. The seat is easy to buckle and comes with the same great five-point harness found on the front seat.
Another benefit of the Bravo For 2 is that it will accept an Chicco KeyFit and Fit2 car seat on the front. It is simple to attach your baby carrier by lowering the front seat before snapping it in. This feature makes it one the most versatile double strollers you can find. It also helps to avoid purchasing a stroller which is only used a few times and will end in your garage, or donated to a second-hand shop.
double pram pushchair to this stroller is that it does not come with a tray for parents or cup holders, and storage space is restricted. However, it is still an excellent choice for families with just one child who will be walking for the duration of their stroll with an older sibling in a car seat up in front. It's also a great option to travel with, since it folds easily into a compact size that can be gate-checked into the plane or put in your trunk.
