A How-To Guide For Twin Stroller From Beginning To End

Best Twin Stroller For Newborns

A double stroller is vital if you are expecting twins or if you have two children of the same age. The best ones offer different ways for your children to ride with you, including side-by-side seating as well as an attachment for a rider board.

The Bugaboo Donkey 5 Mono is Lauren Ro's top stroller. It adapts to the needs of your family seamlessly. It can hold two infant car seats and an infant seat which makes it an ideal choice for twins from birth.

Bugaboo Donkey

This is the best compact twin stroller stroller for families who want a stylish double side-by-side stroller. It is a little larger than the other Bugaboo models however, it is solid and built to last. It has a handlebar that can be adjusted to retract and extend easily. It also has a great reach, so it's easy for my 6'1 husband to push, even when fully loaded.

The seats are spacious and can be positioned to place one child in front of the other, or to have the children face each the other. They can also recline separately from one another. The canopies are large and cover both seat fabrics should you wish. They're not very ventilated which makes them feel like an oven on hot days. They do not have a peek-a-boo window that allows children to peek in.

One of the most unique aspects of this stroller is its capacity to adapt to your family's needs from the single seat (Mono mode) to grow to a nipper double buggy side-by-side stroller. This is the only double stroller convertible that can do this. It can be used in conjunction with the bassinet for infants or a car seat.

It is easy to maneuver on smooth surfaces and can handle slopes and steps with ease. It isn't easy to maneuver in crowded eateries and shops. It can be difficult to fold the seat, especially if it is attached. It is still fairly small, however, and can be tucked away easily.

In mono mode, there is a storage bin in front of the front seats. This is useful for groceries and other things. The main storage basket beneath 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 among the best twin strollers for newborns. It can be used right out of the box as a double stroller and is compatible with a variety of bassies and infant car seats. It can even accommodate two bassinets or infant car seats at the same time if you purchase the Vista Upper and Lower adapters.

The V2 is a redesigned version of the original Vista. The toddler seat is about an inch higher, the footrest has more space and the canopy comes with an extender for the fabric that zips out, which adds extra coverage. Also, the harness has been updated and does not require changed out, making it simple to adjust.

The stroller comes with fairly large wheels (8 in front and 11.5 in the back) with strong suspension, so it can easily handle a variety of terrain. The rubber wheels on the front are ideal to navigate through rocks and gravel and the tread on the rear wheels is more suitable for grassy hills or sidewalks.

Another excellent feature is the possibility to attach a child's bike to the front of the stroller, making it an excellent option for those who don't want to use an infant car seat or Rumbleseat. And if you have a child who is able to stand, the Vista can even fit an additional child with its piggyback ride along board.

Vista is a simple device to use. Vista is simple to use and set up, however it can take some time to unpack all of the protective packaging. The instructions are simple to follow and there's also a YouTube video for assistance if you require more information.

Thule Urban Glide 3

The Thule Urban Glide 3 stroller is the latest version of this popular all terrain stroller. It's designed to appeal to families that appreciate style, sustainability, and adventure. It features exciting improvements 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 has been enhanced for improved mobility.

It's extremely light, which makes it easy to push and quick to accelerate when you're hitting the off road double buggy. Its suspension can handle abrupt changes in surface (like pavement to grass) with ease and the oversized wheels provide ample traction even on the most compact double stroller difficult terrain. It is able to climb kerbs with no trouble and it turns in tight spaces such as city streets with precision. Even small sidewalks and crowded parks are no problem for it.

Although the new Urban Glide 3 offers superior performance, it retains the classic Thule characteristics that make it a top jogger for parents. The huge canopy offers great sun protection, an easy peekaboo and a top-quality harness system and an integrated handbrake that is perfectly adjusted. It has plenty of storage space, including pockets on the seat as well as a huge cargo bag that can hold up to 15 pounds.

This Thule Jogger also has a bassinet, for strolling babies and a double model to accommodate two children. It can be used with car seat adapters so that you can use the infant carrier of your child, and it has a quick fold that's one-handed to make it easy to carry or put away. It also comes in a green option with solution-dyed fabrics in its black hues to cut down on water consumption.

Cortina Together

Cortina Together is designed for growing families and offers parents the option of seating to accommodate the needs and preferences of every child. The two seats in the double stroller feature canopies that are reclining and backrests that are separate. They're also designed to accept one of Chicco's top-rated KeyFit or KeyFit 30 infant car seats in the front and rear seat (car seat sold separately) using the exclusive click-in attachment without the need for additional straps or bars, which many competing models require.

A large, zipper-access basket on the rear offers ample storage space for the equipment. The handle is cushioned to accommodate mom or dad. The wheels and suspension of the tandem double stroller provide an easy ride across all terrains. The rear is linked with a single touch. breaks when activated by a toe-tap, making stopping simple.

In our Strollers & Multiples lab tests, Cortina Together scored well for its ease of use. This metric is based on how easy it is to fold and set up the stroller. It also includes the ease with which it is to open and close the snack tray as well as engage and deengage brakes, raise the stroller that is folded and carry it as if it were an actual trunk.

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 when a car seat is placed in the back. The front tray release isn't always easy to use, especially after long-term use. Despite these issues we still believe that this is a great stroller to have for your family.

Jeep Double Stroller

Jeep Destination Ultralight Side x Side Double Stroller - an affordable, lightweight stroller for families with 2 children. Its front swivel lock wheels rotate to move on flat surfaces and secure for stability on bumpy ones, making it easy to get where you'd like to go. It also has an umbrella fold that folds down in seconds and stands upright for easy transportation. Its light aluminum frame, foam handles and strap for carrying make it one of the easiest to lift double strollers in our tests.

This stroller has reclined seats that can be independently adjusted and foot rests to provide maximum comfort for both kids. Its oversized canopy extends to offer UPF 50 sun protection. It has a peekaboo window that allows to allow for easy monitoring. We wish the canopy was vented to let in more airflow however. We didn't like the fact that the cup holder sits quite high up on the frame. You'll need to bend down in order to reach it.

In our tipping test the Jeep fell over with only 39 degrees of incline which is higher than average for a double stroller with bassinet stroller. It's also heavier than our top picks but it does provide an adequate amount of storage space for the price and comes with plenty of padding on the seats and handle.

This stroller is multi-functional, and offers three modes. It can be used as a wagon (for stuff) or the jogger mode (with two safety belts with five points for children) or car seat mode. It can accommodate a single car seat for an infant. However, pediatricians advise that you wait until your child is six months old before allowing them to jog with them. It comes in black and comes with a lifetime warranty. Jenni Gritters has been a journalist and parent for more than a decade.
