How Easy Is It to Push and Fold a Double Stroller?

Whether you're taking your toddler on a walk or jogging with your twins, the perfect double stroller makes it easier for everyone to move around. It's important to find one that's easy to push and fold is a must.

Our Lab experts recommend side by side models with equal recline, ample storage space and car seat adapters to accommodate infants.

Seating

The seating options you choose are important when shopping for a double-stroller. Depending on your kids' ages and stages, you may want to consider a side-by-side option that lets both children sit together, or a tandem model that lets one child stand while the other one is seated.

Seating arrangements can also impact your comfort when you are navigating busy streets and sidewalks. Look for a stroller with reclined seats, reclined footrests and ample canopy options that provide shade for both of the passengers. Beware of hanging bags from handlebars because they can alter the stroller's center of gravity and cause it to tip.

Double strollers of good quality will also have convenient storage compartments for your necessities. Look for storage spaces under the seats or in the backs of the seats. These are great places to store snacks, toys and other necessities. Parents consoles and bags connected to the handles are also helpful to keep essentials in reach during walks or outings.

A side-by-side stroller is the ideal choice for parents with children of the same age. They are usually more stable and provide better visibility for both the stroller and the passenger than stacking strollers. Some models can accommodate two infants in a car seat, allowing you move your sleeping children from the car to the pram with car seat without waking them.

Sit-and-stand models are a good option for parents with older children who don't mind their kids sitting on their own and prefer a little independence. They can also permit an older child to ride with the front. This type of double stroller is not compatible with newborns and could require more maintenance over the course of time. However, it can be a great option for active families who are looking for the flexibility of a single stroller that converts into an adult-only model.

The most effective double strollers are durable and easy to maneuver, even on rugged terrain or in tight spaces. They are also lightweight compact, foldable and foldable pram to make it easy to store them in your garage or trunk. This makes them easy to transport when traveling. Additionally, they have a solid construction to ensure security and durability of your children. Furthermore, they comply with the American Academy of Pediatricians' (AAP) guidelines for safety.

Canopy

A canopy helps protect both the passenger and the sun, and some models even offer a visor to further shield children's faces. Shades that are massive like the BOB Revolution Flex 3.0 Duallie and the UPPAbaby Vista v2 Double have earned us highest scores for their canopy options. Both models have ample coverage and cover children from head to toe, however, inline options tend to lack shade or offer a single canopy which only covers one seat. This can be problematic for siblings who need different levels protection.

Many of our top-rated canopys can be fitted onto strollers with ease. Check the dimensions of the canopy prior to buying, as some may require extra space to expand fully and avoid hitting the handles.

Some parents prefer a double stroller with a bassinet, car seat adapters or other accessories that provide them with more options down the road. For instance, the UPPAbaby Vist v2 Double features an infant seat as well as an added RumbleSeat making it a great option for families with twins or young children who might need to transport more than two kids at once. This versatile stroller also offers an innovative sit-and-stand design for older children who prefer to ride on their own.

The organizer bags and consoles for parents can make your stroller more useful. They keep essentials close to hand. They are especially useful for strollers that don't get used often, when you might want to keep snacks and toys away from prying eyes. Some of these accessories are connected via a strap or snap which makes it easy to remove them when ready for the stroller to be used again.

If you're looking to make investing in a long-term plan consider a double stroller that is compatible with infant car seats and will grow into a toddler stroller (check out this one from Bookmarkgenius) that has the option of a bench seat or a glider board. Both the Graco Travel System RoomFor2 and UPPAbaby's Vista Duallie come with a bassinet that is compatible with car seats, a toddler seat and a RumbleSeat. Both strollers can be made into triple strollers with the addition of a running board. This is ideal for families with one child who loves to travel stroller.

Wheels

The type of wheels on the stroller can make a big difference in how easy or difficult it is to push. In general, larger wheels are easier to maneuver and can take on more terrain. The material the wheels are made of is a factor in how easy or hard they are to push. Rubber wheels, for example are usually more durable and are able to withstand rougher surfaces than plastic wheels.

Stroller wheels come in various styles, sizes and materials to meet a range of environments and needs. Swivel wheels, for instance can help to navigate tight corners and narrow spaces. Fixed wheels provide more stability and are better for smooth surfaces. If you are planning to take your stroller off-road or over rough terrain, you should consider purchasing air-filled tires instead of regular rubber tires. These tires are similar to bicycle tires and can absorb shocks, resulting in more comfortable riding.

Side-by-side double strollers can be larger than tandem strollers and are difficult to squeeze through narrow doorways or crowded aisles in stores. They provide your children with the same amount of space to sit down and stretch their legs. They're usually also more maneuverable and easy to steer than tandem strollers.

If you intend to use your stroller for a bike or run, choose a double jogger that comes with special all-terrain tires or jogging wheels. They are larger, more robust and feature sealed ball bearings for an easier ride on uneven surfaces. Some models, like the Baby Jogger City Mini GT2 Double Stroller are compatible with car seat that allow you to run while your children are safely strapped into their car seats.

Other all-terrain/jogging doubles like the Valco Baby Tri Mode Duo X, accept a second seat in front, but they're generally too heavy to be considered umbrella doubles. Also, in our testing the restraint buckles on this model were among the toughest to secure, which could be a problem when you're trying to get two children into the stroller at once. This stroller is pricey and costs a lot more than our top single-to-tandem option, but it does come with high-quality materials and good resale value.

Stores

A quality double stroller should have ample storage space for both parents and children. Insufficient storage space can make it difficult for parents to get around town or bring all the equipment needed on an outing with two kids. In our Lab tests we found that the UPPAbaby Vista v2 Double scored excellently in this metric, with a large and easily accessible basket that can hold up to 30 pounds.

Strollers that have multiple compartments or pockets can aid families in keeping the track of small things, like phones, keys and wallets. A parent console or organizer bag that attaches to the handlebars of the stroller can be a handy way for parents to store their personal belongings while outing with the children.

The UPPAbaby Vista has an enormous basket that can carry two infant car seats. (Not both bassinets however.) It also features a telescoping bar and easy-to use brakes. It also has one of the largest capacity weight ratings for seats in our lineup and an easy fold that fits through most standard door frames.

Our testers also found that the Joovy Caboose Ultralight Graphite wagon comes with a fantastic adjustable bar, which is perfect for parents with different heights. The wagon features two UV screens that fold down for full sun protection, and its cup holders as well as snack tray can be used to hold various bottles for kids and snacks.

A big challenge for any stroller is how to fold it down and get it back into shape after use, particularly when you're carrying an infant and a toddler in the back. This is why it's crucial to choose a model that is easy to fold and user-friendly fold. The UPPAbaby Vista v2 and Evenflo Pivot Xpand both have a simple, single-handed mechanism that lets parents quickly and easily fold their strollers, no matter which configuration they're in.

Double strollers might seem like an investment that's expensive, but parents who plan to use it for many years will be paying more than they would for single strollers. You should also check if the stroller can be disassembled for storage and transportation. This is important in the event that you only have a small amount of space in your home or vehicle.
