Your Family Will Thank You For Getting This Twin Stroller
Best Twin Stroller For Newborns
A double stroller will be essential if you're expecting twins or have two children of similar ages. The best double strollers offer multiple ways to ride for your children, including side by side seating and an attachment for boards.
The Bugaboo Donkey 5 Mono is Lauren Ro's favorite stroller. It can be adapted to your family's needs effortlessly. It can be used with two infant car seats as well as the toddler seat. This makes it an ideal option for twins.
Bugaboo Donkey
This is the best twin stroller for families that want a stylish double side-by-side stroller. It is a little bit bulkier than the other Bugaboo models however, it is solid and built to last. It comes with a handlebar that can be adjusted to retract and extend easily. It also has a fantastic reach, so it's easy for my husband of 6'1 to push, even when fully loaded.
Seats are comfortable and can be set up in a way that one child is behind another or so that the children face each other. They can also recline independently from each other. The canopies are huge, covering both seat fabrics if desired. However, they don't offer much ventilation so they can be like a tiny oven on hot days. They do not have a peek-a-boo window that allows children to peek in.
This stroller has an exclusive feature that lets it grow with you and your family. It can convert from a single seat (Mono Mode) to the pushchairs double side by side stroller. This is the only double stroller convertible that can do this. It can even be used in conjunction with an additional bassinet or car seat for infants.
It is easy to use on smooth surfaces, and it handles slopes and stairs well. The only downside is that it can be difficult to navigate through crowded shops and restaurants. It can be difficult to fold the seat, particularly if it is attached. It's still pretty compact, and does fit through most doors easily.
There is a storage bin that fits on the frame next to the front seat in mono mode. This is great for groceries and other supplies. The main storage basket under the seats is large and can hold up to 100 lbs which is more than any other stroller on this list!
Uppababy Vista v2
This stroller is one of the Best Double Stroller twin strollers designed for newborns. It can be used with a variety of bassinets and infant car seats (adapters are sold separately) and can be used as a double stroller straight out of the box. The Vista Upper and Vista Lower adapters allow you to use two infant car seats at once.
Comparatively to the first Vista, the V2 has made a few improvements to make it better. The toddler seat is half an inch taller, the footrest has more space and the canopy is equipped with a zip-out fabric extender that provides additional coverage. Also, the harness has been updated and no longer needs to be replaced, making it easier to adjust.
The stroller comes with big wheels (8" in front and 11.5" in the back) and a robust suspension system, which lets it navigate any terrain. The wheels made of rubber on the front are perfect for navigating rocks and gravel, while the tread on the rear wheels is more suitable for sidewalks or grassy hills.
Another feature that is great is the ability to connect a child's bicycle to the front of the stroller, making it a handy option for those who aren't interested in using an infant car seat or Rumbleseat. And if you have an older child who is able to stand in the Vista, the Vista can even fit a third kid with its piggyback ride along board.
The Vista is simple to use and set up, however it does take some time to remove all of the protective packaging. The instructions are easy to follow and there is also a YouTube video should you require further assistance.
Thule Urban Glide 3
The Thule Urban Glide 3 stroller is the most recent version of this popular all terrain stroller. It's designed to appeal to families who are looking for style, sustainability and adventure. It's got exciting new features like a built-in foot rest and an updated reclined seat that promises unbeatable comfort for children during long walks and jogs. Its sleek and agile design is also upgraded to improve its maneuverability.
It's extremely light, making it a breeze to push and easy to accelerate when you're hitting the off road double buggy. Its suspension is able to handle abrupt changes in surface (like grass to pavement) with ease and the large wheels provide plenty of traction on even the most difficult terrains. It can easily climb kerbs without trouble and it turns in tight spaces such as city streets with ease. Even narrow sidewalks and parks with lots of people are no problem.
The new Urban Glide 3 is a superior jogger that offers parents a great deal of comfort and ease. It comes with a huge canopy that provides great sun protection, a convenient peekaboo window a high-quality harness system, and a handbrake integrated with an incredibly tuned lever. It has plenty of storage space, including pockets inside the seat and a large cargo bag that can hold up to 15 lbs.
This Thule Jogger also comes with a bassinet, for babies who need to stroll and a double version to accommodate two kids. It comes with car seat adapters, meaning that you can use the infant carrier of your child. It also has a one-handed folding system to help you transport it or store. It also comes in a green option that uses solutions-dyed fabrics with black color options to minimize the use of water.
Cortina Together
Cortina Together is designed for families that are growing and provides parents with the option of seating to meet the needs and preferences of each child. The double stroller's two standard stroller seats have reclining backrests and independent canopy. The seats are also designed to accept Chicco's KeyFit or KeyFit 30, the top baby car seat in both the front and rear seat. (Car seat sold separately).
A large, zip-up basket on the rear offers ample storage space for the gear. The handle is padded to accommodate mom or dad. The wheels and suspension of the tandem double stroller offer smooth riding on any terrain. The one-touch linked rear breaks with toe-tap activated make stopping a breeze.
In our Strollers & Multiples lab tests, Cortina Together scored well for ease of use. This metric is based upon the ease with which it is to fold and set up the stroller. It also includes how easy it is to open and close the snack trays as well as engage and deengage brakes, and then lift the stroller that is folded and carry it like the trunk of a car.
The model has a few flaws. First, it's heavy. It weighs 36.6 pounds when fully loaded and puts it closer to the beast end of our measurement. It also has limited visibility when a car seat is mounted in the back. Lastly, the front tray release can be difficult to operate, particularly after long-term use. However, despite these issues, we believe that this is a great stroller to have for your family.
Jeep lightest double stroller Stroller
The Jeep Destination Ultralight Side x Side Double Stroller is a lightweight, affordable stroller ideal for families with two kids. Its lock wheels on the front rotate for easy maneuvering on flat surfaces and lock to provide stability on bumpy surfaces. It comes with a compact folding umbrella that can be closed in seconds. It can also stand upright to make moving it easier. Its lightweight double stroller aluminum frame, carrying strap and handle made of foam makes it one of the easiest double strollers we have seen in our tests.
This stroller has reclined seats that can be independently adjusted and foot rests to provide maximum comfort for both children. The large canopy provides UPF 50 protection, and comes with a peekaboo view to make it easy for monitoring. We would prefer to have the canopy vented to allow more airflow. We weren't a fan of the fact that the cup holder is quite high up on the frame. You'll have to bend down in order to reach it.
In our tipping test the Jeep was able to tip over at a 39-degree angle which is higher than average for a double stroller. It's a little heavier, but offers more storage for the price. The seats and handle are also well-padded.
This versatile stroller has three modes that include wagon (just for things) as well as the jogger (with two 5-point safety harnesses for kids) and car seat mode. It can accommodate a single infant car seat. However, pediatricians recommend that you wait until your child is 6 months old before you jog with them. It comes in black and comes with a lifetime warranty. Jenni Gritters has been a parenting and outdoor journalist for over 10 years.
