How Twin Stroller Has Become The Top Trend On Social Media
Best Twin Stroller For Newborns
A double stroller is essential if you are expecting twins or if you have two children of similar ages. The best twin buggy strollers offer numerous ways for your children to ride, including side-by-side seating and a rider board attachment.
The Bugaboo Donkey 5 Mono is Lauren Ro's favourite stroller. It can be adapted to your family's needs seamlessly. It can fit two infant car seats, as well as an infant seat. This makes it an excellent choice for twins.
Bugaboo Donkey
This is the top double stroller for families who are looking for a stylish and attractive side-by-side double pram pushchair stroller. It's a more bulkier than other Bugaboo models but it's solid and built to last. It has a handlebar which can be adjusted to retract and extend easily. It has a good reach so that my husband, who is 6'1" can easily push it, even when he is fully loaded.
The seats are spacious and can be positioned to have one child sit and stand double stroller in front of the other or to have the children face each other. The seats can recline independently of one other. The canopies are big and cover both seat fabrics when desired. They're not a lot of ventilation which makes them feel like an oven on hot days. There's no peek-a-boo window to see your children.
This stroller comes with a unique feature that allows it to expand with you and your family. It can be converted from a single seat (Mono Mode) to a Nipper double Buggy side by side stroller. This is the only double stroller convertible that can do this! It can also be used with a second bassinet or car seat for infants.
It is easy to navigate on smooth surfaces and handles slopes and steps well. It can be difficult to maneuver around busy restaurants and shops. It is also a little difficult to fold, especially when seats are attached. It's still compact and can fit through most doors.
There is an additional storage bin that fits on the frame next to the front seat in mono mode. It is great for grocery shopping and other items. The main storage basket beneath the seats is big and can hold up 100 lbs. This is more than any other stroller on our list!
Uppababy Vista v2
This stroller is among the best twin strollers designed for newborns. It can be used straight out of 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 at once.
In comparison to the original Vista, the V2 has made a few changes to make it even better. The toddler seat has been raised by about half an inch, the footrest is bigger and the canopy comes with an extra fabric extension that zips out. The harness has also been modernized since it doesn't require re-threading. This makes it much easier to adjust.
The stroller is equipped with big wheels (8" in front and 11.5" in back) and a sturdy suspension system that lets it handle any terrain. The wheels made of rubber on the front are great for navigating rocks and gravel and the tread on the rear wheels is better for sidewalks and grassy hills.
Another feature that is great is the possibility to attach a child's bike to the front of the stroller, making it a handy option for those who don't want to use an infant car seat or Rumbleseat. If you have a child who is old enough to stand up and walk, the Vista stroller can fit an additional child using its piggyback board accessory.
Vista Vista is simple to use and to set up. It does take some time to get rid of the protective packaging. The instructions are simple to follow, and there's also an YouTube video should you require further assistance.

Cortina Together
Cortina Together is designed for growing families and offers parents a variety of seating options to accommodate the preferences and needs of each child. The double stroller's standard stroller seats come with reclining backrests as well as independent canopy. The seats are also designed to accommodate Chicco's KeyFit or KeyFit 30, the top rated infant car seat, in both the rear and front seat. (Car seat sold separately).
A large, zipper-accessible basket in the rear offers ample storage space for the gear. The handle is padded to allow for dad or mom. The wheels and suspension of the tandem double stroller provide smooth riding across all terrains. The one-touch linked rear breaks when you tap it, making stopping a breeze.
In our Strollers & Multiples laboratory tests, Cortina Together received high scores for its ease of use. This is based on how easy it is to fold and set up the stroller and to adjust the safety harness as well as the snack tray, engage and disengage the brakes, lift and carry the stroller as if placing it into a trunk, and for double strollers compatible install and remove the infant car seat.
We did discover some flaws to this model, though. First, it's heavy. It weighs 36.6 pounds fully loaded which puts it close to the top of our measurement. It also has limited visibility when a car seat is mounted in the back. Lastly the front tray release can be difficult to operate, particularly after prolonged use. However, despite these issues, we consider this to be a great double stroller that can keep up with your family for years to come.
Jeep Double Stroller
Jeep Destination Ultralight Side x Side Double Stroller - a lightweight, affordable stroller ideal for families with 2 children. Its front swivel-lock wheels rotate to allow it to be maneuvered on flat surfaces and ensure stability on bumpy ones making it easy to go where you want to go. It also has a compact umbrella fold that can be closed in a matter of seconds, and it stands upright to make it easy to transport. Its lightweight aluminum frame along with the foam handles and straps for carrying make it one of the most easy-to-lift double strollers in our tests.
This stroller has seating that reclines independently and foot rests to ensure maximum comfort for both children. Its large canopy offers UPF 50 protection and also comes with an open view for easy monitoring. We'd like to see the canopy vented for extra airflow, though. We didn't like the fact that the cup holder is extremely high on the frame. You'll have to bend down in order to reach it.
In our tipping test in our tipping-test, the Jeep tipped over at a 39 degree angle, which is higher than the average for double prams. It's also a bit heavier than our top picks but it offers an adequate amount of storage space for the price and has plenty of padding in the seats and handle.
This stroller is multi-functional, and offers three modes. It can be used as a wagon (for things) or the jogger mode (with two 5-point safety belts for kids) as well as a car seat mode. It can fit one car seat for infants however, pediatricians recommend waiting until your child is 6 months old before jogging with them and one year old before taking them on rough terrain. It's black and comes with a lifetime warranty. Jenni Gritters has been a journalist and parent for over a decade. She has written about travel and shopping, food, tech and parenting.
