This can be helpful if your kids tend to fall asleep in the same position but it's important to remember that they will only have minimal coverage when the window is opened.

Comfortable

The canopy should be large enough to provide some shade and there should be a tray for parents with two cup holders.

It's important to think about how the stroller fits in your home. It is important to ensure that the stroller is able to fit into your trunk or closet before purchasing it. It is also important to determine the width of any doors that you'll need to pass through with the stroller in its open. Standard doorways are between 30 to 36 inches wide. However, some are a bit narrower.
