What Twin Stroller Is Your Next Big Obsession
Best Twin Stroller For Newborns
If you're expecting twins or two children that are close in age A double buggy side by side stroller is a must. The best strollers 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 who writes for the blog, loves is the Bugaboo Donkey 5 Mono, that is a perfect fit as your family grows. It can fit two infant car seats as well a toddler seat which makes it a great option for twins as young as.
Bugaboo Donkey
This is the best twin stroller for families that want a stylish double side-by-side stroller. It is a bit larger than other Bugaboo strollers, but it feels solid and built to last. It has a movable handlebar that can be extended and retracted easily. It has a good reach, so my husband who is 6'1" can easily push it when he is fully loaded.
Seats are comfortable and can be positioned in a way that one child is behind another or so that the children are facing each the other. They can also recline separately from each other. The canopies cover both fabric seats, if desired. They're not very ventilated which makes them feel like an oven on hot days. They also don't have a peek-a-boo window to view the children.
This stroller has a unique feature that allows it to grow with your family. It can go from a single seat (Mono Mode) to a double side-by-side stroller. This is the only stroller that can be converted that can do this! It can even be used with an additional bassinet or car seat for infants.
It is easy to maneuver on smooth surfaces, and can handle slopes and steps with ease. The only drawback is that it can be difficult to navigate the midst of crowded restaurants and shops. It is also a little difficult to fold up, especially when seats are connected. It's still small and can be accessed through the majority of doors.
In mono mode, there is an storage bin located next to the front seats. It is great for grocery shopping and other things. The main storage basket underneath the seats is huge and can support up to 100 pounds that is more than any other stroller on this list!
Uppababy Vista V2
This stroller is among the best twin strollers for newborns. It is compatible with a range of bassinets and infant car seats (adapters sold separately) and can be used as a double stroller right out of the box. The Vista Upper and Vista Lower adapters let you use two infant car seats simultaneously.
In comparison to the original Vista, the V2 has made a few improvements to make it even better. The toddler seat is half an inch higher, the footrest has more space and the canopy is equipped with an extender fabric that zips out and adds extra coverage. Additionally, the harness has been modernized - it no longer needs to be replaced, making it easier to adjust.
The stroller is equipped with big wheels (8" in front and 11.5" in the back) and a robust suspension system, which can take on any terrain. The front wheels are rubber, which makes them ideal for navigating rocks, gravel and cobblestones, while the rear wheels have more tread to tackle paths and grassy hills.
Another feature that is great is the capability to attach a child's bike to the front of the stroller, which can be an ideal option for parents who don't want to use an infant car seat or Rumbleseat. If you have a child old enough to stand then the Vista stroller can accommodate another child in with its piggyback board accessory.
Vista Vista is easy to use and set up. However, it takes some time to take off all the protective packaging. The instructions are simple to follow and there's also an YouTube video to help for assistance if you require more information.
Thule Urban Glide 3
The Thule Urban Glide 3 is the most recent version of the popular stroller that is made to attract modern families that are a fan of style, sustainability, and adventure. It features exciting improvements like a built-in foot rest and a new reclining seat, which promises the best comfort for children on long walks and jogging. Its sleek, agile design also increases its maneuverability.
It's extremely light, making it a breeze to push and quick to accelerate on the open road. Its suspension can handle sudden changes in surfaces (like pavement to grass) effortlessly, and the large wheels provide plenty of traction on even the roughest of terrains. It's able to climb kerbs and turn in tight spaces, like city streets. Even narrow sidewalks and parks with lots of people are not a problem.
While the new Urban Glide 3 offers superior performance, it retains the classic Thule features that make it a top jogger for parents. The huge canopy offers great sun protection, has a convenient peekaboo, a high quality harness system and a handbrake that is precisely tuned. It offers plenty of storage space, including pockets on the seat and a large cargo bag that can accommodate up to 15 pounds.
This Thule Jogger includes a bassinet that is suitable for strolling babies, as well as a double version that can fit two children. It is compatible with car seat adapters, so you can use your infant carrier and it features a simple fold that's one-handed to make it easy to transport or store. It's also an eco-friendly choice since it is made of solution-dyed fabric in its black and white color options.
Cortina Together
For the growing family, Cortina Together offers parents versatile seating options that let them adjust to each child's unique needs and preferences. The double stroller's two standard seats feature reclining backrests and independent canopies. The seats are also designed to take Chicco's KeyFit or KeyFit 30, the top baby car seat that is rated the highest in both the rear and front seat. (Car seat sold separately).
A large, zipper-accessible basket at the rear provides ample storage space for the gear. The handle is padded to fit dad or mom. The wheels and suspension of the tandem double stroller provide a smooth ride on all terrains. The 1-touch linked rear breaks when activated by a toe-tap, making stopping easy.
In our Strollers & Multiples laboratory tests, Cortina Together received high marks for ease of usage. This is based on how simple it is to fold and set up the stroller and adjust the safety harness, open and close the snack tray, engage and deengage the brakes, lift and carry the folded stroller as if putting it in a trunk, and for compatible double strollers, install and remove an infant car seat.
We did find some drawbacks to this model, though. First, it's heavy. It weighs 36.6 pounds when fully loaded and puts it closer 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, particularly when used for a long time. Despite these issues, we consider this to be a great double stroller that can keep your family together for a long time.
Jeep Double Stroller
The Jeep Destination Ultralight Side x Side double pushchair Stroller is a lightweight, affordable stroller ideal for families with two kids. Its front swivel lock wheels can be rotated to allow easy maneuvering on flat surfaces and lock to provide stability on bumpy surfaces. It also features a compact umbrella fold that folds down in seconds and stands upright to make it easy to transport. Its aluminum frame is light with foam handles and carrying strap make it one of the easiest to lift double strollers we tested.
This tandem stroller features independent reclining seats to ensure maximum comfort. Its canopy is large and offers UPF 50 protection, and comes with a peekaboo view to make it easy for monitoring. We would prefer to see the canopy vented for more airflow. We also didn't love that the cup holder is very high on the frame, which means you'll have to bend down to access it.
In our tipping-test in our tipping-test, the Jeep fell over at a 39-degree angle, which is higher than the average for a double pram. It's also a bit heavier than our top picks however, it has a decent amount of storage space for the price and comes with a decent amount of padding in the seats as well as the handle.
The stroller is multi-functional and has three modes. It can be used as a cart (for things) as well as a the jogger mode (with two 5-point safety belts for kids), or car seat mode. It can accommodate a single to double stroller car seat for an infant. However, pediatricians suggest that you wait until your child is six months old to run with them. It is available in black and comes with a limited warranty.
