Buying a Small Double Stroller

A double stroller is a major investment, and one you'll be using for years. You should choose wisely.

Our test participants looked at strollers that have incredible flexibility and a smooth ride on any terrain. They also checked if the strollers were easy to fold and move.

Size

There are a variety of double strollers on market, from side-by-side to tandem (single-file seating) and wagons. The category has changed from the old 1980s designs that older millennials may remember. These days, they're modern and sleek, with a variety of options to make traveling with children more enjoyable for everyone.

For parents of toddlers or infants, a double stroller and car seats is a great option to transport them from point A to B. Some of the most advanced strollers feature one frame that can accommodate two infant car seats or convertible toddler seats. This lets them be utilized by children from birth until they reach kindergarten age. These are usually more expensive than double buggy newborn stroller frames but they come with an integrated car seat system as well as a large undercarriage basket.

Parents with fewer children could opt for a single-to double-stroller, which is more simple and less expensive. These frames are typically lighter in weight, and some mothers have told us they're still using their original stroller even after their children have outgrew it.

The compact fold is a great feature of some the tiniest double strollers we've tried. They can fit in places where larger strollers wouldn't and are generally easier to maneuver once folded.

Finally, most of the compact double strollers we've tested have a large sunshade, although the coverage can vary from almost nothing to a cocoon covering. If you're on a budget then you may want to look for second-hand strollers on auction websites like Facebook Marketplace. Just make sure you check the stroller for wear and tear prior to purchasing it.

Weight

Parents should take into consideration their budget and whether the stroller is suitable for their family's lifestyle when looking for a double-small stroller. A stroller that is lightweight is one example. It may not have enough storage space to hold large bags or additional gear. It might not have a large canopy or other features that make it more convenient to use during long journeys.

The most comfortable double strollers are easy to maneuver and sturdy, so that children can remain in a comfortable position and not get out of their seats. In our comfort tests, we give higher marks to strollers that have adjustable leg rests and padded seatbacks. The best double strollers offer reclining seating positions which allow children to unwind on long walks.

Innovative designs and clever features have made strollers that can be used in various ways more popular than ever. Some of the most effective options are able to accommodate multiple car seat installation and provide an extended range of seating configurations from infant to preschool. Some are so light that they can be used for jogging or traveling.

One of the most important factors to take into consideration when selecting a compact double stroller is whether or not it will be able to pass through doors and other narrow spaces. Older models of tandem strollers and side-by-side walkers are often too large to pass through the doors of many. The most effective small double strollers, however, tend to be smaller than the traditional models and can be pushed into doors of all terrain double buggy sizes easily.

Another thing to consider is whether you require a stroller that has additional features such as a cup holder or snack tray. These are helpful for longer trips, but they will add weight and expense to a double stroller.

Folding

A small double stroller folds compactly to fit into small spaces. It is also easy to keep in storage. In addition, a light design guarantees that it will be easy to maneuver and carry.

Think about the frequency and location you will be using a double stroller. The answer to these questions will help you identify the essential features. For example, if you plan to use the stroller for running you'll need to look for one with a smooth suspension that will glide across rough and paved terrain.

Consider the age and temperament of your children as well. If they are of similar age, then a side-byside stroller might be the best lightweight double stroller choice. However, if they're at different stages of development, it is possible that a tandem stroller would be better suited for your needs.

A double stroller is costly however, the investment will pay off in the long run. Investing in a quality model that meets your family's needs will make travel with children much easier and will give years of comfort to you and your kids.

If you have limited storage space, you might want to consider a compact double stroller that can fit both infant car seats as well as toddlers. The Evenflo Pivot Xplore Wagon is a great choice for families with two small children and can accommodate twins. It comes with two canopy options, an attachable storage bin as well as a tray for children with cup holders. This lightweight, budget-friendly stroller folds easily and can be carried using just one hand. Be aware that you need to remove the second hand double buggy seat on most double modular strollers when folding.

Maneuverability

The most suitable double strollers for small spaces are easy to maneuver, and they come with wheels that glide effortlessly over any surface. These strollers feature reclined seats that are comfortable and ample storage space for your child's equipment. Many of these strollers are also compatible with toddler and infant seats and car seat carriers. These features make them a perfect option for families looking for a single stroller that will expand with their family.

Alli Cavasino is a certified child safety technician as well as a travel gear expert who advises parents about strollers and travel gear. She suggests selecting a light, easy-to-push model. She warns that heavy strollers can cause frame fatigue and injuries. "If your stroller feels heavy and difficult to push, you might consider adding a ride-along deck or reduce the number of kids in the seat."

Some of the double strollers that we tested are able to accommodate multiple infant car seats. The UPPAbaby Vista v2 double, for instance, can accommodate two infant seats or toddler seats at once and can be transformed into a 3-seat configuration using the RumbleSeat add-on. It also has a chic inline design with foam-filled tires that will not flatten, and an adjustable telescoping handbar. The seat buckles are among the easiest to secure and remove and its large UPF 50+ sunshades feature window-like windows.

Other models are available with multiple seating configurations. They can be used with twins or triplets, as well as an older child and an infant or a toddler riding the scooter (sold separately). These models also feature easy-to use brakes and an incredibly compact fold that can fit in most trunks. Some are so light they can be carried up and down the stairs. Most require little assembly. The Joovy Caboose, however, requires a few tools and was the most difficult build in our tests.

Safety

The top double strollers are outfitted with a variety of safety features. They come with adjustable handlebars, which provide an ergonomic grip, as well as a large base to ensure it won't tip over when the children get out of their seats. The canopy is large enough to accommodate both kids in the event of rain. They're also simple to use, says Alli Cavasino who is a certified child-passenger safety technician. "Look for an easy one or two-step fold that is easy to carry and has a place where the straps can be positioned," she says.

The most compact double strollers fit through doorways with ease--a major benefit if you have an incredibly small car or a tiny living space. The smallest models also weigh less than normal double strollers. This makes them easier to transport from one location to the next.

Parents of children of similar ages can opt for a stroller with a side-by-side feature, such as our top choice: the Joovy Kooper X2, that has two child seats which can be adjusted individually for recline and size. We discovered that the seats were very comfortable, and recline was easy and easy. Each seat has only one lever. It also comes with a massive storage basket and a one-step connected parking brake (to reduce hand fatigue when stopping), and some of the most comfortable harnesses in our tests.

If your children are different ages, a sit-and- stand stroller, like our top choice, the UPPAbaby v2 double, may be an ideal choice. It accepts two infant car seats, and also has two seats that function as bassinets for older children. It can also be modified to accommodate a riding board for an even older sibling.
