Best Twin stroller double For Newborns
If you're expecting twins or two children that are close in age A double pram stroller stroller is a must. The best ones offer multiple ways for your kids to ride such as side-by-side seating, and a rider board attachment.
Lauren Ro, a writer and strategist, has a favorite is the Bugaboo Donkey 5 Mono, which adapts seamlessly as your family grows. It can accommodate two infant car seats and an infant seat which makes it an ideal option for twins starting at birth.
Bugaboo Donkey
This is the ideal twin stroller for families who want a stylish double side-by-side stroller. It's a larger than the other Bugaboo models but it's sturdy and built to last. It has a handlebar which can be adjusted to extend and retract easily. It also has a long reach, so it's easy for my husband of 6'1 to push, even when fully loaded.
The seats are comfortable and can be set up to have one child sit on top of the other or to have children face each one. They can also recline separately from each other. The canopies are huge and cover both fabric if desired. But they don't have adequate ventilation, so they could be like a tiny oven on hot days. There is no peek-a-boo to see your kids.
This stroller features a unique feature that allows it to expand with your family. It can convert from a single seat (Mono Mode) to the double side by side stroller. This is the only stroller that can be converted that can do this! It can also be used in conjunction with another bassinet or car seat for babies.
It is easy to use on smooth surfaces, and it handles stairs and slopes well. It isn't easy to maneuver in crowded stores and restaurants. It can also be difficult to fold up, especially when seats are tucked away. It's still pretty compact though, and it is able to fit through most doors easily.
In mono mode, there's a storage bin in front of the front seats. It is great for grocery shopping and other supplies. The main storage basket under the seats is large and can hold up 100 lbs. This is more than any other stroller we have listed!
Uppababy Vista v2
This stroller is among the best twin strollers designed for newborns. It can be used straight from the box as a double stroller, and is compatible with numerous bassies and infant car seats. The Vista Upper and Vista Lower adapters let you use two infant car seats simultaneously.
The V2 is a more refined version of the original Vista. The toddler seat has been raised by about half an inch, the footrest is larger, and the canopy is an additional fabric extension that zips out. The harness is also modernized in that it does not require re-threading. This makes it easier to adjust.
The stroller has reasonably large wheels (8 inches in front and 11.5 in the back) with strong suspension, which means it is able to easily navigate any terrain. The front wheels are rubber and are ideal for navigating through rocks, gravel and cobblestones, while the rear wheels have more tread to tackle the grassy hills and sidewalks.
Another great feature is the capability to attach a child's bike to the front of the stroller, which is 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 and walk, the Vista can even fit a third kid with its piggyback ride along board.
Vista is a simple device to use. Vista is simple to use and set up, although it takes some time to unpack all of the protective packaging. The instructions are simple to follow, and there's a YouTube video to help if you require assistance in understanding the instructions.

Cortina Together
Cortina Together is designed for families that are growing and provides parents with various seating options to accommodate the preferences and needs of each child. The double stroller's standard stroller seats have reclining backrests and independent canopy. The seats are also designed to accommodate Chicco's KeyFit or KeyFit 30, the number one baby car seat that is rated the highest in both the front and rear seat. (Car seat sold separately).
A large, zipper-accessible basket on the rear offers ample storage for gear. The handle is cushioned to accommodate mom or dad. The tandem double stroller's wheels and suspension ensure a smooth ride on any terrain and the 1-touch rear brakes that are linked and have a toe-tap activation make stopping easy.
In our Strollers & Multiples laboratory tests, Cortina Together received high scores for its ease of use. This metric is based upon how easy it is for you to fold and set up the stroller. It also considers the ease with which it is to open and close the snack trays, engage and disengage brakes, raise the folded stroller and carry it like an actual trunk.
The model has a few flaws. First, it's heavy. It weighs 36.6 pounds when fully loaded which puts it close to the extreme end of our metrics. It also has a limited view from the back seat when a car seat is installed. The front tray release isn't always easy to use, especially after prolonged usage. Even with these limitations, we think this is a great double stroller that can keep your family together for many years to come.

Jeep Destination Ultralight Side x Side Double Stroller - an affordable, lightweight stroller that is ideal for families with two children. Its front swivel lock wheels rotate to maneuver on flat surfaces, and ensure stability on bumpy surfaces making it easy to go where you'd like to go. It also features an umbrella fold that closes in seconds and stands upright for easy transport. Its aluminum frame is lightweight, and its foam handle and carrying strap makes it one of the most easy double strollers double strollers to lift during our tests.
This stroller with a side-by-side design offers independently reclining seats and foot rests to ensure maximum comfort for both kids. The large canopy provides UPF 50 protection and includes a peekaboo view to make it easy for monitoring. We would like to have the canopy vented for more airflow. We also weren't thrilled the fact that the cup holder is quite high on the frame, meaning you'll have to bend down to access it.
In our test of tipping, the Jeep fell over at 39 degrees of angle which is a bit higher than the average for a double stroller. It's also a little heavier than our top picks, however, it has an adequate amount of storage space at a reasonable price and comes with plenty of padding in the seats and handle.
This stroller is multi-functional and offers three modes. It can be used as a walker (for stuff) or jogger mode (with two safety belts with five points for children) or car seat mode. It can be used with one car seat for infants however, pediatricians suggest waiting until your child is six months old before running with them and one year old before letting them go on rough terrain. It is available in black and comes with a limited warranty. Jenni Gritters has been a journalist in the field of parenting and outdoor for more than 10 years.
