Buying a Twin Stroller With Car Seats

You could choose a frame that is lightweight and can accommodate two car seats in the early days of your baby. The top choices include the UPPAbaby Vista V2 double stroller with bassinet and Joovy twinRoo+.

This model allows the car seat carriers to face either in the opposite direction or the same way and comes with a large storage bin that you can access without having to remove the infant carriers. It is also able to fit through the majority of doorways.

Folding is easy

The UPPAbaby Vista V2 is a huge beautiful twin stroller. It can carry two infant car seats if equipped with the appropriate adapters (car-seat adapters are available separately). It glides and pushes easily, turning and spinning like a single double stroller-seat stroller. It has built-in adjustable leg and foot rests, a generous UPF 50+ canopy that has peekaboo windows and padded five-point safety harnesses that are simple to unfasten and fasten. The included toddler seat can be used, or you could add the RumbleSeat which is a bassinet style seat for infants as well as young children. The oversized storage basket is roomy enough to hold all your belongings and has a convenient spot to keep your purse or phone, and four cup holders.

It isn't easy to fold, especially when you hold the handlebar in one hand while holding the seat for your child in the other. You'll also have remove the rear seat from its base in order to fold the stroller, which is more time-consuming than the other double strollers that we test. The company has updated its Vista stroller to work with the new car seat adapters. The updated version (which will be available in April 2023) will work with both the original and updated adapters in both positions and it can even fold with two adapters connected at once.

The clever design cuts down the overall length to ensure that it fits better in some trunks. The seats are padded and comfortable, and they recline to multiple positions with the push of a button. The buckles are among the easiest to secure and remove in our tests.

The only drawback to the TwinRoo+ is that its bench seat is made for a big kid who's at minimum 2 1/2 years old. So it's not ideal for twins or siblings who are close in age. It's still a great choice for families who want to exercise and the durable construction means that it won't wear out as quickly as other tandems.

Wheel Suspension

The suspension of the wheels on twin strollers that have car seats is a feature that makes it more comfortable for the kids. This is particularly true if you're walking on bumps and rough terrain. Strollers that have suspension have bigger wheels, and typically have more shocks than strollers with no suspension. The more shocks a stroller is equipped with the smoother it will ride.

One of our top picks is the BravoFor2, features the front seat with a buckle that is adjusted to the waist and shoulders. This makes it possible for a single caregiver to take two kids out. Its bench seat is made to hold a child who's at least 2 1/2 years old. old, so it's not the best double buggy option for twins or children who are younger. We liked that the stroller folds up into a compact size and has handles on both sides to help roll it up to the car.

Some parents prefer a double stroller that can be used side-by-side because it is less likely to create sibling conflicts. These types of strollers also allow you to view both children at the same time, making it easy for a parent to supervise and talk with them. On the flip side, side-byside models are often heavier and longer than single strollers.

It also has a platform for older children to stand on. It's more expensive than our budget stroller but it's made by a small, family-owned business with excellent customer service.

Seating

If you're planning on using car seats for infant twins, a stroller that accepts these seats is essential. Our top-rated strollers are compatible with the most popular car seat brands. The UPPAbaby Vista v2 double running buggy stroller can fit two car seats. The Joovy Twin Roo+ can accommodate a single car seat, as well as the bassinet. We recommend strollers that are compatible with multiple infant car seats due to the fact that you can pick from a wide range of prices and not be shackled into one brand.

It's also important to decide whether you'd like a side-by-side or tandem stroller. A twin stroller with a side-by-side arrangement is more traditional and easier to maneuver, especially in restricted spaces and over curbs. A tandem stroller, on the other hand is more unstable and requires more space between the seats. In addition, the different heights of seats can result in sibling squabbles, so we suggest that you select a tandem stroller only if your kids are close in age.

There are many stroller options for families with twins or children who are similar age. The Baby Trend Sit N' Stand double single pushchair stroller, for example is a highly-rated option and compatible with car seats. This lets parents transfer their children from their car to the double stroller with ease.

The front and rear baskets of the stroller are also spacious. These baskets are ideal for storing all of your diaper bags, extra clothes and backpacks. Plus, the front storage compartment has a separate compartment for phone and keys. The baskets come with mesh sides to stop items from falling out, meaning you don't have to search for them.
