Selecting a Double Stroller With Infant Car Seat A double stroller with an infant car seat is essential for twins or two kids who are close in age. If you are planning to purchase one, you must take into consideration your budget and how long you hope to use the stroller. Kate liked that the stroller was lightweight and easy to move. She also liked the fact that it folds easily, though she did find the buckles magnetic difficult to fasten. Size Size is an important factor to consider when choosing a double stroller with an infant car seat infant. Parents must be able move the stroller comfortably on crowded sidewalks and through narrow subway gates, which implies that it should be small and compact. The stroller should also be compact and easy to fold so that it can be tucked away into the trunk of a small vehicle. Consider a double stroller that has two seats and is able to accommodate infant car seat when you plan to have twins or children that are close in age. Double strollers are more expensive but they have a longer life and can be used until toddlerhood or beyond. For example, our top pick the UPPAbaby Vista V2 Double comes with a variety of seating options and can accommodate two infant car seats or toddler seats that can be converted into bassinets. We also prefer strollers that work with a variety of infant car seats. This gives parents a greater variety to choose from. For instance the UPPAbaby Vista can accept the UPPAbaby Mesa as well as other infant car seats using adapters, and also can be used with the Baby Jogger Glider Board for a third, standing passenger. Some parents buy a double or single stroller that can be modified to accommodate an additional child. We recommend buying what you need right now. You might have another child arrive later than you expected, or your first child may not be able to walk. The seating arrangement in a double stroller with an infant car seat can also make or break the relationship between siblings especially if they are close in age. Weight Double strollers tend to be heavier than single models. They have two seats as well as more cargo, so the final pushing weight is greater. It is important to consider this weight when you're deciding on the best model, particularly in the event that you'll use it for long jogs or walks. The best models will handle the extra weight without movement and swaying. You should also think about the longevity of a double-stroller. The higher-end models offer a high-quality design and seating versatility that indicates they'll last longer than budget-friendly rivals. The double bundle from Joovy, for instance, accepts adapters for two infant car seats and can accommodate a secondary rider via a bassinet that attaches. This configuration can work for twins, kids of different ages or siblings with gaps in age. The Baby Trend Double Snap N'Go is a great alternative for parents on a budget, as it can be transformed into a tandem stroller (single file) and can accommodate two infant car seats. It's compact and lightweight and easy to maneuver, despite the added weight. Another budget-friendly option is the Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double. It's similar to higher-priced award winners and can accommodate multiple seating options for children of different ages and stages. The side-by-side design of the seat allows for twins or children with different ages, and it can be customised with accessories like dual canopy, twin bassinets or modified seats that function as toddler seats. It can be folded easily and has a tiny footprint, making it easy to fit into the trunk. The stroller isn't designed to be used until children are able to sit up on their own without assistance, so babies younger than that need to be carried or seated in a car seat. Convenience It's more convenient and less stressful take your family on a trip when you can transfer your infant's car seat effortlessly from the vehicle to the stroller. Instead of trying to fold the stroller while keeping one hand on the infant and the other on a toddler, you can simply click the seat into position and then begin moving. This is a fantastic option for long trips, when you don't want to have to unbuckle and then rebuckle your child every couple of minutes. Push Chairs And Prams with twins choose an option that can accommodate two infants in the car seats at the same time. The Graco Fast Action Flip, for instance, has this feature and comes with the added benefit of a bench seat for older siblings. It is not compatible with all infant car seats and can be somewhat heavy for certain families. Some parents prefer double strollers with an integrated car seat adapter that works with the majority of infant car seats. The Evenflo Pivot Xpand Combo is an excellent option and comes at a very friendly price for what you get. It's not the most ideal double-stroller for twins since it works with one. However it's an excellent choice for many families. Other double strollers require a more complicated procedure to attach and detach the car seat. The UPPAbaby Vist v2 Double for instance, requires you to push down, and then hear a loud click to know it's securely secured. It can be a bit more difficult to use in parking spaces particularly when you have hungry or tired children. As it grows with your family, we don't consider it the best option for parents of twins. You'll have to buy a separate toddler chair when your children reach an age. Durability A double stroller with an infant car seat should be built to last and have longevity. It should also fit your budget and lifestyle whether you plan to use the stroller for a few or a number of years. Be sure to consider the quality of the fabric and the components, including the tires, when you make your purchase. A stroller with a big and deep basket is able to hold plenty of diapers, food items, and other items. A large console for parents and cup holders are also helpful as is a sun canopy that gives ample coverage. Make sure that the stroller is able to handle off-road terrain, as well as narrow city sidewalks. Parents with twins may want a side-by-side stroller to provide equal access and visibility to both children. Others with children of different ages might choose a tandem stroller that allows the seat of the rear child to be raised or lower. Tandem strollers are typically bulkier than single strollers, however, and they can cause sibling rivalries when the seats are set at different heights. A stroller with a handlebar that is adjustable can help you adjust it to the ideal height for your needs and the one-hand fold mechanism is an excellent feature. Another thing to look for is a compact footprint that fits comfortably in your trunk and requires only a small amount of storage space. A modular stroller such as the CYBEX Gazelle S offers unparalleled flexibility, allowing you to mix and match seating units as well as cot attachments for multiples, twins, or single riders of various age groups. Its sturdy design and a variety of seating configurations make it clear that this top-of-the-line model is worth the price should you intend to keep it for a long period of time. Safety A great stroller should be safe for both children riding in the seats as well as the parent pushing them. Certified child passenger safety technician Alli Cavasino suggests looking for strollers that have ergonomic handlebars, easy-to-use brakes and an adjustable seat harness. She also suggests avoiding accessories that add weight of the stroller for children such as ride-on boards or extra child seats. A double stroller must be strong enough to traverse different surfaces easily from suburban sidewalks to parks trails. It should be strong enough to move over curbs and bumps easily and also able to be adapted to maneuver over a steep incline or up and down stairways. Additionally it should be easy to fold and fit into a trunk of a car without sacrificing its dimensions or maneuverability. Parents of twins or siblings who are close in age may think about a double stroller that is able to accommodate two infant car seats. This lets them transfer sleeping children from the car to the stroller without them having to wake up. A majority of our top-scoring strollers are compatible with two infant car seats, including the Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double and the UPPAbaby Vista V2 Double. Another option is the joovy qool double bundle, which can be used with two infant car seats (car seat adapters sold separately) and includes an additional rumble seat that transforms into a second seat when your kids outgrow their car seat. It offers stadium-style seating with plenty of space for legs and is able to be set so that your kids can face each other or the world. It's not able to accommodate two bassinets or an infant car seat or riding board at the same time, but it's a great value for families with multiple young children.
