A double stroller is essential if you are expecting twins or if you have two children who are similar in age. The best double strollers offer numerous ways to ride your children including side by side seating and a board attachment.
Lauren Ro, a writer and strategist who writes for the blog, loves is the Bugaboo Donkey 5 Mono, that is a perfect fit as your family expands. It can fit two infant car seats as well a toddler car seat which makes it a great option for twins starting at birth.
Bugaboo Donkey
This is the ideal twin stroller for families who are looking for a stylish and stylish double side-by-side stroller. It's a little bigger than other Bugaboo strollers however, it is solid and built to last. It comes with a handlebar that can be adjusted to extend and retract easily. It also has a long reach, making it easy for my husband of 6'1 to push, even when loaded.
The seats are spacious and can be placed to place one child on top of the other or to have children facing each one. They can also recline independently from each other. The canopies are large, covering both seat fabrics when desired. They're not a lot of ventilation which makes them appear like an oven on hot days. They also don't have a peek-a-boo window to view the children.
One of the most unique features of this stroller is its ability to adapt to your family's needs from a single seat (Mono mode) all the way to a double side-by-side stroller. It is the only convertible double stroller that can do this! It can even be used with another car seat or bassinet for babies.
It is easy to maneuver on smooth surfaces and can handle slopes and steps with ease. It can be difficult to maneuver in crowded eateries and shops. double pram pushchair is difficult to fold the seat back, particularly if it is attached. It is still compact and can be accessed through the majority of doors.
There is an extra storage bin that is attached to the frame next to the front seat in mono mode. This is ideal for shopping and other supplies. The main storage basket beneath the seats is massive and can hold up to 100 lbs, which is more than any other stroller on this list!
Uppababy Vista v2
This is among the top twin strollers for new babies. It can be used straight from the box as a double stroller, and is compatible with numerous infant car seats and bassets. It can even accommodate two infant car seats or bassets simultaneously when you purchase the Vista Upper and Lower adapters.
The V2 is a more refined version of the original Vista. The toddler seat is half an inch taller, the footrest has more space and the canopy is equipped with an extender for the fabric that zips out, which gives extra coverage. Additionally, the harness has been modernized - it no longer needs to be replaced, making it easier to adjust.
The stroller comes with large wheels (8" in front and 11.5" in back) and a sturdy suspension system that allows it to handle any terrain. The wheels made of rubber on the front are perfect to navigate through rocks and gravel and the tread on the rear wheels is more suitable for sidewalks or grassy hills.
Another great feature is the ability to connect a child's bicycle to the front of the stroller, making it an ideal option for parents who aren't interested in using an infant car seat or Rumbleseat. If you have a child old enough to stand and walk, the Vista stroller can fit a third child with its piggyback board accessory.
Vista Vista is simple to use and set up. It does take some time to take off all the protective packaging. The instructions are simple to follow, and there's a YouTube video in case you need help understanding them.

It's got exciting new features such as a built-in foot rest and a reclining seat, which promises the best comfort for children on long walks and jogging.

It's extremely light, making it easy to push and easy to accelerate when you're hitting the open road.

Cortina Together
Designed for the growing family, Cortina Together offers parents various seating options that let them adjust to each child's individual needs and preferences. The two seats in the double stroller feature reclined backrests and canopies that are independent. The seats are also designed to take Chicco's KeyFit or KeyFit 30, the #1 baby car seat in both the front and rear seat. (Car seat sold separately).
A comfortable three-position handle accommodates mom or dad, and a zippered rear access large basket provides ample storage space for all of your gear. The tandem double stroller's wheels and suspension provide a smooth ride over all types of terrain, and the one-touch linked rear brakes with toe-tap activation makes stopping a breeze.
In our Strollers & Multiples laboratory tests, Cortina Together received high scores for its ease of use. This metric is based on how easy it is to fold and set up the stroller. It also considers the ease with which it is to open and close the snack tray, engage and disengage brakes, raise the folded stroller and carry it as if it were the trunk of a car.
This model has some shortcomings. First, it's heavy. It weighs in at 36.6 pounds when fully loaded and is closer to the beast side of our metric than the average for this category of strollers. It also has limited visibility when a car seat is placed in the back. Lastly the front tray release can be difficult to operate, particularly when used for a long time. Despite these issues, we believe that this is a great stroller to have for your family.
Jeep Double Stroller
The Jeep Destination Ultralight Side x Side Double Stroller is an affordable, lightweight stroller ideal for families with two kids. Its lock wheels on the front rotate for easy maneuvering on flat surfaces, and lock to provide stability on bumpy surfaces. It also comes with an umbrella fold that folds down in a matter of seconds and can be set up to make it easy to transport. Its lightweight aluminum frame along with the foam handles and straps for carrying make it one of the most easy-to-lift double strollers that we have tested.
This side-by-side stroller offers seating that reclines independently and foot rests for the best comfort for both children. Its large canopy can offer UPF 50 sun protection, and it has a peekaboo window that allows for easy monitoring. We would like to see the canopy ventilated to allow for more airflow, though. We also weren't thrilled the fact that the cup holder is very high on the frame, meaning you'll have to bend down to access it.
In our test of tipping, the Jeep fell over at 39 degrees of incline which is a bit higher than the average for a double stroller. It's a little heavier, but offers more storage for the price. The handle and seats are also well-padded.
This stroller is multi-functional, and has three modes. It can be used as a cart (for stuff) or Jogger mode (with two 5-point safety belts for children) as well as a car seat mode. It can be used with one infant car seat, but pediatricians recommend waiting until your child is six months old before running with them and 1 year old before letting them run on rough terrain. It is available in black with a limited warranty. Jenni Gritters has been a parenting and outdoor journalist for more than a decade.
