Buying a Double Infant Stroller

A double stroller is a great option for parents to take multiple children. The best models are easy to fold, carry and place in a car trunk. They also provide flexible seating arrangements for kids of various ages.

Parents with children of a similar age may find that a side-by-side or sit-and stand style is best to avoid sibling squabbles about who is allowed to ride in which seat. We also like the options that allow two infant car seats such as the UPPAbaby v2 double.

Comfort

It is essential that your baby and toddler are at ease in the stroller. Pick a stroller that has cushioned seats and swiveling wheels at the front to smooth out road bumps. Also, pick one with buckles that are easily fastened and unfastened.

You can also look for an ample, UPF 50+ canopy that provides sun protection and ample coverage for both kids. Another feature that is comfortable is the adjustable footrests that let your child sit up in the back seat when they are tired. Some double strollers provide this feature to both children, like the Safety 1st model that is the most popular.

The number of seats you can put in your stroller is contingent on the ages and weights of the children who are who are riding in it. For instance, a side by side stroller allows you to keep an eye on both children simultaneously and is ideal for twins or siblings that are close in age. However, it's generally larger than other configurations and may be difficult to maneuver in tight spaces or crowded areas.

Sit-and-stand strollers allow older siblings to stand while you push a younger child in the infant car seat. It's not the best option for infants, but it can be a good fit when your kids are around three years old and able to walk longer distances.

A convertible stroller is another alternative. It has multiple seating configurations and can be used for years as a single or double. Rebecca says this type of stroller is a good option for parents who wish to purchase a single stroller but plan to use it with two kids. It's more expensive than the top tandem model but it will last for many years and has an excellent resale value, she adds.

This stroller by UPPAbaby is a double buggy newborn stroller that converts into a single or a toddler-and-RumbleSeat configuration.
