Buying Guide For Double Strollers

A double stroller is a good investment for families with two children with similar age. These narrow tandem strollers or versatile side-by-side buggies help you keep your eyes on both kids at the same time while navigating the aisles of the supermarket, parks and anything else life throws at you.

Comfort

Comfort is an important factor to consider when shopping for a double-stroller. This can include the seating arrangement and overall size, which will have an impact on ease of use and storage. "Parents must determine what the stroller weighs and its dimensions when folded," says child development expert and mom Katie Billingsley of Fourth Trimester Postnatal Retreat. "They should also take a 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 suburban sidewalks to park trails and from infant car seats to toddler booster seats. It should also provide flexible seating options for children of different ages and comfort features like windows that can be opened and closed to shield children from sun or rain.

Seating options are important for many families who will use double strollers from the time of birth until childhood. "There are two main categories--in-line with one seat in front of the other, and side-byside with seats next to each other," Billingsley explains. "Some parents prefer an in-line option for its sleek appearance and versatility, while others prefer a wagon-style double stroller that can be used to store bulky items or groceries."

Some products may offer different recline options - with one seat almost flat while the other one remains upright, this kind of difference is more prevalent in in-line models. Billingsley recommends choosing a product that offers both a near-flat recline and leg rest adjustments for both seats, so that each child can sleep comfortably.

Finally, she advises looking for strollers with storage compartments that will allow parents to easily access snacks, toys and other personal items while on the move. She suggests that it's useful to find the stroller that has an organizer or parent console bag attached to the handlebars. This can help keep essentials close at hand.

A few of the top-rated Double running stroller strollers can be expanded giving parents the ability to modify the layout based on their family's needs. For instance, the Mockingbird Expandable is a highly rated smallest double buggy stroller that can be used with just a single seat from birth and then transformed into tandem (with an additional seat and bassinet) as the child gets older.

Safety

Double strollers must be able to carry the weight of both passengers and any additional cargo. Strollers must also be easy to move and push, particularly in tight spots and on terrain that is difficult to navigate. The best twin buggy strollers have ergonomic handlebars and adjustable heights which allow parents to maintain a good posture when pushing them. Another feature that is great is a no-rethread seat belt harness that allows for a more comfortable adjustment of the belts on the seat. Also, a strong brake system and wheels that glide across any surface are essential safety features.

Some parents opt for the side-by-side design so that both children can meet up when they go on family outings. This arrangement can prevent siblings fighting over who is allowed to sit where, but it's not foolproof. If the seats are set at different heights, one child may be capable of punching or kicking the other on a walk.

For parents with twins or siblings close in age, a tandem-style stroller is a great option for being able to view both kids at once. However, these can be larger than other double strollers, so they might not fit through all doorways in the interior. Think about a stroller that is single-to-thule double stroller that can be transformed from a single stroller to double in various ways. Popular models include the CYBEX gazelle S.

If you are looking for a tandem or side-byside stroller, make sure that the stroller has been JPMA certified to meet the strictest safety standards. Pay attention to 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, however it's important to remember that strollers are in essence baby carriers that are carried for long periods of durations. It should be comfortable for both parents and children as well as easy to clean and maintain, and most importantly, it should offer an intuitive, familiar design that the person pushing it can effortlessly maneuver it without having to think twice about how to move forward, turn left or right, or apply the brakes.

Easy of Use

A double stroller must be easy to maneuver on various of terrains for families that are always on the move. Strollers with features such as peek-a-boo windows, adjustable canopies and reliable brake systems are essential to ensure the safety of your children. However, there are other features that make them more convenient to use. For example the stroller should be small enough to fit in the trunk of your car, while still offering ample storage space for your groceries and other items. It is also essential to include thoughtful touches, such as a cup holder for one parent, consoles for parents and a snack tray. These can make traveling with two children significantly easier.

In our tests, we assessed each stroller based on its performance on different terrains and its ability to maneuver through tight spaces. We also looked at how simple it was to fold the stroller in half and then unfold it as well as if a particular feature improved the overall functionality. For instance, a stroller with no-rethread harnesses makes adjusting the seat belts quick and simple. This is a huge selling point for parents who are always on the move, as it removes the need to rethread their harness.

The UPPAbaby Vista v2 Double scored high in this metric, as it came with a variety of seating configurations as well as additional accessories to accommodate families that are growing. The wagon-style double stroller is able to allow for a second seat as well as a bassinet or a toddler riding board--perfect for active families planning long days on the go with multiple children of different age groups. It also glides effortlessly over pavement, cobblestones and ballfields--and it folds flat to make simple storage in a trunk or closet. The design of this stroller is simple and intuitive, which was appreciated by our test participant Kerry. Its stylish packaging, clearly labeled sections and an informative user guide made putting together this stroller an absolute breeze.

Storage

Double strollers can hold twice more than one stroller so be sure to look for plenty of storage space. Ideally, you'll want a stroller that is able to hold the basic necessities for both kids: nappies, bottles, snacks and toys, along with parents' items such as wallets, phones keys and wallets. Find baskets and pockets under the seats. Also, consider a stroller with an expandable cargo space that can accommodate bulky items such as diaper bags and lunchbags.

A good double stroller should be able to adjust as your family grows. For instance, some models include the bassinet attachment, which can be used for newborns, and others feature child seats that can expand with your children until they're able to switch to riding on the back of the stroller, Billingsley says. Some double strollers even include a rider board to let older siblings be part of the fun.

You'll find a wide variety of double strollers in the market, from sleek, high-performance models that are able to handle rough terrain to budget-friendly models that are more suitable for use in the everyday. While shopping, read reviews and opinions of families like yours to get a better idea of what you can expect from the double stroller you select.

Double strollers come in three different designs: side-by-side, tandem, and wagon-style. Billingsley states that side-by-side strollers are the most adaptable and ideal for twins as well as children of a similar age. Tandem double strollers come with two seats that are set in a tandem configuration facing in opposite directions. This is a good option for children who are the same age, or siblings who like to play with one another. Tandem strollers are more difficult to maneuver through tight spaces, and are less likely to be able to fit through doorways.
