10 Twin Stroller Tricks All Experts Recommend

Best Twin Stroller For Newborns

If you're expecting twins, or have two children who are similar in age the double stroller is essential. The best double strollers offer different ways to ride your children including side by side seating and an attachment for a board.

The Bugaboo Donkey 5 Mono is Lauren Ro's top stroller. It can adapt to your family's needs effortlessly. It can be used with two infant car seats as well as an infant seat. This makes it a great option for twins.

Bugaboo Donkey

This is the ideal double stroller for families searching for a stylish and attractive side-by-side double stroller. It is a little bit bulkier than the other Bugaboo models, but it feels solid and built to last. It has a movable handlebar that can be extended and retracted easily. It also has a fantastic reach, so it's easy for my husband of 6'1 to push, even when loaded.

Seats are spacious, and can be positioned so that one child sits on top of the other or so that children face each other. The seats can recline independently from each other. The canopies cover both seat fabrics, if desired. However, they don't offer adequate ventilation, so they could be like a tiny oven on hot days. They also don't have a peek-a-boo window to see the children.

One of the most distinctive features of this stroller is its ability to grow with your family from one seat (Mono mode) all the way up to a double side-by-side stroller. It is the only double stroller convertible that can do this. It can be used in conjunction with a bassinet for newborns or a car seat.

It is easy to navigate on smooth surfaces and handles slopes and steps well. The only downside is that it can be difficult to navigate the midst of crowded restaurants and shops. It can be a bit difficult to fold the seat back, particularly if it is attached. It is still fairly small, however, and is able to fit through most doors easily.

There is an extra storage bin that fits on the frame to the front seat in mono mode. It is great for grocery shopping and other things. The main storage basket beneath the seats is massive and can support up to 100 pounds which is more than any other stroller on this list!

Uppababy Vista V2

This stroller is one of the top twin strollers for newborns. It can be used right out of the box as a double stroller, and is compatible with numerous infant car seats and bassets. The Vista Upper and Vista Lower adapters allow you to use two infant car seats at once.

The V2 is an improved version of the original Vista. The toddler seat has been raised by about half an inch, the footrest is bigger and the canopy comes with an additional fabric extension that zips out. The harness is also modernized, as it does not need to be re-threaded. This makes it much easier to adjust.

The stroller is equipped with big wheels (8" in front and 11.5" in back) and a robust suspension system, which can handle any terrain. The rubber wheels on the front are great for navigating gravel and rocks and the tread on the rear wheels is more suitable for grassy hills or sidewalks.

A child's bike can be attached to the front of a stroller. This is a great choice for parents who do not want to use a car seat. If you have a child who's old enough to stand, the Vista stroller can accommodate a third child with its piggyback board accessory.

Vista Vista is simple to use and to set up. However, it takes some time to remove all the protective packaging. The instructions are easy to follow, and there's a YouTube video to help if you require help understanding the steps.

Thule Urban Glide 3

The Thule Urban Glide 3 stroller is the most recent version of this renowned all terrain stroller. It's designed for families who appreciate style, sustainability, and adventure. It comes with exciting upgrades such as a built-in foot rest and an updated reclined seat, which offers unbeatable comfort for children during long jogging and walks.

It can climb kerbs without difficulty and can turn in tight spaces like city streets with ease. Even small sidewalks and crowded parks are no problem for it.

The brand new Urban Glide 3 is a superior jogger that gives parents plenty of comfort and ease. The oversized canopy provides excellent sun protection, an easy peekaboo, a high quality harness system and a handbrake that is perfectly adjusted. It also comes with ample storage options, including inside-seat storage pockets and a large cargo basket that holds up to 15 pounds and comes with the zip-top cover.

This Thule jogger comes with a bassinet to accommodate strolling babies, as well as a double version that can fit two children. It has car seat adapters, meaning that you can use the infant carrier of your child. It also comes with an one-handed folding system to help you transport it or store. It's also available in green that uses solution-dyed fabrics in its black colors to reduce water consumption.

Cortina Together

For the growing family, Cortina Together offers parents various seating options that let them adjust to each child's individual needs and preferences. The two seats in the double stroller come with reclining backrests, and canopies that are independent. The seats are also designed to accommodate Chicco's KeyFit or KeyFit 30, the #1 baby car seat in both the rear and front seat. (Car seat sold separately).

A comfortable three-position handle accommodates mom or dad, and a rear zipper access large basket offers ample storage space for your gear. The wheels and suspension of the tandem double stroller provide an easy ride on any terrain. The rear is linked with a single touch. breaks with toe-tap activated make stopping easy.

In our Strollers & Multiples laboratory tests, Cortina Together received high scores for its ease of use. This metric is based on how simple it is to fold and set up the stroller and adjust the safety harness as well as the snack tray, disengage and engage the brakes, and lift and carry the folded stroller as if placing it in a trunk, and for compatible double single pushchair strollers install and take off an infant car seat.

The model has a few flaws. First, it's heavy. It weighs 36.6 pounds fully loaded which puts it close to the top of our measurement. It also has a limited view from the back seat when a car seat is installed. Lastly, the front tray release is sometimes difficult to operate, especially after long-term use. Even with these issues, we still believe this is a fantastic double pram and pushchair stroller that will keep up with your family for years to come.

Jeep Double Stroller

The Jeep Destination Ultralight Side x Side Double Stroller is a lightweight, affordable stroller ideal for families with two kids. The front lock wheels swivel and allow for easy maneuvering on flat surfaces and lock to provide stability on bumpy surfaces. It also features an umbrella fold that can be closed in seconds and stands upright to make it easy to transport. Its lightweight aluminum frame, foam handle and carrying strap makes it one of the most easy double strollers to lift in our tests.

This tandem stroller comes with independent reclining seats to ensure maximum comfort. The canopy is large enough to provide UPF 50 sun protection, and it has a peekaboo window that allows to allow for easy Fold double stroller monitoring. We would like to see the canopy vented to let in more airflow though. We also weren't thrilled the fact that the cup holder is quite high on the frame, which means you'll need to bend down to reach it.

In our tipping test, the Jeep was able to tip over at 39 degrees of angle which is a bit higher than the average for a double stroller. It's also a bit heavier than our top picks, however, it has an adequate amount of storage space at a reasonable price and comes with a decent amount of padding in the seats and handle.

The stroller is multi-functional and has three modes. It can be used as a walker (for stuff), the jogger mode (with two 5-point safety belts for children) as well as a car seat mode. It can accommodate one car seat for infants however, pediatricians recommend waiting until your child is 6 months old before jogging with them, and 1 year old before taking them on rough terrain. It is available in black with a limited warranty.
