Buying Guide For Double Strollers

If you have two children who are close in age A double stroller can be a valuable investment. These compact tandem buggies or versatile side by side buggies allow you to keep both children within sight while you shop, parks, and whatever else life throws at you.

Comfort

Comfort is a major factor to consider when shopping for a double buggy from birth-stroller. This could include the seating arrangement and overall size, which has an impact on ease of use and storage. Katie Billingsley, a child expert in development from the Fourth Trimester Postnatal Retreat, advises parents to check the stroller's weight and folded dimensions. "They should also look at the options for recline and seat age ranges to ensure a perfect fit for their family."

A quality double stroller should be sturdy enough to traverse all surfaces without difficulty, from urban sidewalks to parks trails and from infant car seats to toddler booster seats. It should have a variety of seating options for children of different ages, as well as comfort features such as a peek-a-boo window and adjustable canopy which protect children from rain or sun.

The seating options are important to many families that will use a double stroller from the time of birth until childhood. Billingsley states that there are two main categories that are in-line which has one seat in front of the other and side-byside, with seats next to each other. Some parents prefer the in-line model because of its sleek appearance and its versatility. Others prefer a wagon-style double stroller to maximize space for groceries or bulky items.

In-line models are more likely to have this type of discrepancy. Certain models may provide different recline options, with one being almost flat, while the other one remaining fairly upright. Billingsley suggests choosing a model that offers both an almost flat recline as well as leg rest adjustment for both seats, so that both children can lie back comfortably.

Finally, she advises choosing a stroller that includes storage compartments that allow parents to easily access snacks, toys, and personal belongings while on the go. She adds that it's also beneficial to choose a stroller that has an organizer console for parents or a parent bag that is attached to the handlebars, which can help keep essentials in reach.

Some of the best double buggy-rated double strollers can be enlarged giving parents the ability to modify the layout according to their family's requirements. The Mockingbird Expandable, for instance, is a highly rated pushchair double stroller that can be used from birth with just one seat, and then converted into a tandem (with two seats and a bassinet) when the child gets older.

Safety

Double strollers should be able to support the weight of two people, plus any additional cargo. Strollers must also be simple to push and maneuver, especially in tight spaces and over challenging terrain. The best strollers come with ergonomic handlebars that can be adjusted in height which make it easier for parents to maintain their form when pushing them. A no-rethread harness, which makes adjusting seat belts quicker and easier, is another nice feature to look out for. Safety features include a robust brake system and wheels that slide over any surface.

Some parents opt for an arrangement that is side by side to ensure that both children be together on family outings. This arrangement can stop sibling fights over which child is allowed to sit in which spot however it's not foolproof. If the seats are placed at different heights, one child could be in a position to punch or kick the other on a walk.

If you have twins or siblings who are close in age, a tandem-style stroller can be beneficial in being able to see both children at the same time. Double strollers are typically larger, and might not fit through some doors inside. For maximum flexibility, think about a single-to-double stroller which can switch from a single stroller to a tandem in different ways, such as the renowned CYBEX Gazelle S. These models can accommodate a wide variety of configurations and permit you to insert infant car seats or cot attachments, depending on your requirements.

If you're in the market for a tandem or side-by-side stroller, ensure that the product is JPMA certified to meet stringent safety standards. Be aware of the weight limit that applies to each seat. Overstepping these limits can cause frame fatigue and other issues.

It's easy to get caught up in the bells and whistles, but it's important to remember that strollers are in essence baby carriers that will be used for extended times. It must be comfortable for both passengers and easy to clean and maintain, and most importantly it should feature an intuitive, familiar design so that the person pushing it can effortlessly maneuver it without having to think about how to move forward or turn left or right, or even apply the brakes.

Easy of Use

For families who are constantly on the move, a double stroller needs to be able to navigate a variety of terrains. Strollers that have features like windows that can be opened and closed, adjustable canopy and sturdy brake systems are essential to ensure the safety of your children. But there are also other features that make them more convenient to use. A stroller should be small enough to fit in the trunk of your vehicle and still provide plenty of storage space for groceries or other things. It's also essential to add thoughtful details, such as a cup holder for one parent as well as consoles for parents and an eating tray. These will make traveling with two kids significantly easier.

During our testing we rated each stroller on how well it did on a variety of terrains and how easily it maneuvered in tight spaces. We also considered how easy it was to fold the stroller and unfold it in a timely manner, and if a specific feature made a difference to the overall performance. A stroller without rethread straps is easy to adjust the seat belts. This is a major benefit for parents who are always in motion, as it does away with the need to rethread their harness.

The UPPAbaby V2 Double scored well in this measure because it came with a variety of seating options, as well as other accessories that could accommodate families that are growing. The wagon-style double stroller can be expanded to provide an additional seat as well as a bassinet or a toddler riding board--perfect for families with active children who plan long trips with multiple kids of varying age groups. It also glides smoothly over pavement, cobblestones and ballfields--and folds flat for simple storage in a trunk or closet. The design of this stroller is simple and intuitive, which was appreciated by our tester Kerry. Its clever packaging, clearly labeled sections and helpful user guides made putting together this stroller an absolute breeze.

Stores

A double stroller is able to hold twice as much as a single stroller therefore, you should look for plenty of storage space. Ideally, you want a stroller that can accommodate the necessities for both kids, including nappies, bottles, snacks and toys, in addition to parents' items such as wallets, phones keys and wallets. Look for under-seat baskets as well as other pockets, and consider a stroller with an expanding cargo area that can hold heavy items such as lunch bags and diaper bags.

A quality double stroller will be able to grow with your family. For example, some models include the bassinet attachment, which can accommodate newborns, while others feature child seats that can grow with your kids until they're ready to move to the back of the stroller, Billingsley says. Some double strollers even permit a rider's board that allows older children to join in the fun.

Double strollers are available in three styles: tandem, side-by-side and wagon style. Billingsley says that side-by-side strollers are the most flexible and suitable for twins or children of similar age. Tandem double strollers feature two seats set up in tandem with the opposite direction facing. This is a good option for children who are the same age, or siblings who want to interact with each other. Tandem strollers are more difficult to maneuver through narrow spaces, and less likely to fit in doorways.
