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 expands. It can hold 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 ideal twin stroller for families who want a stylish double side-by-side stroller. It is a little larger than the other Bugaboo models but it's sturdy and built to last. It has an adjustable handlebar that can be extended and retracted easily. It has a good reach so that my husband, who is 6'1" is able to easily push it when he is fully loaded.
Seats are comfortable and can be set up so that one child sits behind another or so that children face each other. The seats can recline independently of one other. The canopies are big and cover both fabric when desired. However, they don't provide enough ventilation, which makes them feel like a small oven on hot days. There is no peek-a-boo to look at your children.
This stroller features an exclusive feature that lets it expand with your family. It can convert from a single seat (Mono Mode) to the double side by side stroller. It is the only double buggy With Carrycot stroller convertible that can do this. It can be used in conjunction with a second car seat or bassinet for infants.
It is a breeze to use on smooth surfaces, and it can handle stairs and slopes with ease. It can be a challenge to maneuver through crowded stores and restaurants. It is difficult to fold the seat down, particularly if it is attached. It's still compact and can be accessed through the majority of doors.
In mono mode, there is a storage bin next to the front seats. This is ideal for groceries and other things. The main storage basket underneath the seats is big and can hold up 100 pounds. This is more than any stroller we have listed!
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 buggy stroller straight out of the box. 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 elevated by a half inch, the footrest is bigger and the canopy comes with an additional fabric extension that zips out. Also, the harness has been modernized - it does not require re-threaded, making it easy to adjust.
The stroller comes with big wheels (8" in front and 11.5" in back) and a sturdy suspension system that allows it to handle any terrain. The front wheels are made of rubber which makes them suitable for navigating through rocks, gravel and cobblestones. The rear wheels have more tread to conquer the grassy hills and sidewalks.
Another excellent feature is the capability to connect a child's bike to the front of the stroller, which is a handy option for those who don't want to use an infant car seat or Rumbleseat. If you have a child old enough to sit n stand double stroller up and walk, the Vista stroller can accommodate another child in with its piggyback board accessory.
Vista is a simple device to use. Vista is simple to use and install. However, it takes some time to take off all the protective packaging. The instructions are easy to follow, and there is a YouTube video in case you need help understanding the instructions.

The Thule Urban Glide 3 is the most recent version of the popular all-terrain stroller and it's made to draw the attention of modern families who are a fan of style, sustainability, and adventure. It's got exciting new features like a built-in foot rest and a new reclining seat, which promises unbeatable comfort for children during long walks and jogs.

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 two standard seats have reclining backrests and independent canopies. The seats are also designed to take Chicco's KeyFit or KeyFit 30, the number one baby car seat that is rated the highest in both the rear and front seat. (Car seat sold separately).

The suspension and wheels of the tandem double stroller provide smooth riding on all terrains. The rear is linked with a single touch. breaks when you tap it, making stopping easy.
In our Strollers & Multiples laboratory tests, Cortina Together received high scores for ease of use. This is based on how simple it is to set up and fold the stroller and to adjust the safety harness, open and close the snack tray, disengage and engage the brakes, lift and carry the stroller like you would put it in a trunk, and for double strollers compatible install and remove an infant car seat.
We did find some drawbacks to this model, however. First, it's heavy. It weighs 36.6 pounds fully loaded which puts it close to the extreme end of our metrics. It also has a limited view when a car seat is placed in the rear. Additionally the front tray release can be difficult to operate, especially after prolonged use. Despite these issues we still think that this is a great stroller for your family.
Jeep Double Stroller
The Jeep Destination Ultralight Side x Side Double Stroller is an affordable, lightweight stroller double ideal for families with two children. Its front swivel lock wheels rotate to maneuver on flat surfaces and lock for stability on bumpy surfaces, making it easy to travel wherever you want to go. It also features an umbrella fold that closes in a matter of seconds, and it stands upright for easy transportation. Its aluminum frame is lightweight, and its foam handle and carrying strap makes it one of the most easy double strollers to lift during our tests.
This stroller with a side-by-side design offers reclined seats that can be independently adjusted and foot rests to ensure maximum comfort for both children. Its canopy is large and offers UPF 50 protection and includes an open view for easy monitoring. We would prefer to see the canopy vented for more airflow. We also didn't love the fact that the cup holder is very high on the frame, meaning you'll have to bend to reach it.
In our tipping-test, the Jeep was able to tip over at a 39-degree angle, which is higher than average for the double pram. It's also heavier than our top picks, however, it has a decent amount of storage space for the price and has ample padding in the seats as well as the handle.
This stroller can be used in three modes it can be used in: wagon (just for things) as well as the jogger (with two 5-point safety harnesses designed for children) and car seat mode. It can accommodate a single car seat for infants. However, pediatricians suggest that you wait until your child is six months old to run with them. It's black and has a limited lifetime warranty.
