Buying a Twin Stroller With Car Seats
You might opt for a lightweight frame that can accommodate two car seats during the first few months of life. The best choices include the UPPAbaby Vista V2 Double or Joovy TwinRoo+.
This model allows the car seat carriers to be facing either in the opposite direction or the same way and comes with a large storage bin that is accessible without removing the infant carrier. It is also able to fit through most doors.
Folding Ease
The UPPAbaby Vista V2 is a big, beautiful twin stroller. It can hold two infant car seats when fitted with the appropriate adapters (car-seat adapters are available separately). It glides and pushes easily while turning and spinning as a single-seat stroller. It has built-in adjustable leg and foot rests, a spacious UPF 50+ canopy that has peekaboo windows and padded five-point safety harnesses that are simple to fasten and unfasten. You can also use the included toddler seat, or add the RumbleSeat that is a bassinet like seat for infants and small children. The large storage basket has plenty of room for all your belongings and features four cup holders, which is a place to keep your purse or phone.
It can be difficult to fold, particularly if you are holding the handlebar with one hand and the child’s seat in the other. It’s also necessary to disconnect the rear seat from the base to fold it up–a process that is more time-consuming than other double strollers we’ve tested. Fortunately, the company has upgraded the Vista to be compatible with the latest car seat adapters. The new version (launched in April 2023) is compatible with the original adapters and the new ones. It can be folded with two adapters connected simultaneously.
Another option for families with twins is the Joovy TwinRoo+, our preferred infant car seat twin stroller frame. It works with 23 different car seat models and allows you to carry twins in infant carriers side-by-side. It is a favourite for parents who drive small vehicles. The clever design reduces the overall length so that it is able to fit into certain trunks. The seats are comfortable and cushioned and can be reclined to various positions by pressing the button. The buckles are among the easiest to unfasten and fasten in our tests.
The only drawback to the TwinRoo+ is that its bench seat is designed for a big kid who’s at least 2 1/2 years old–so it’s not a good choice for twins or siblings close in age. However, it’s a great option for families that want to jog and its robust frame construction means that it will not wear out as quickly as some other tandems we’ve tested.
Wheel Suspension
The wheel suspension on twin strollers that have car seats makes it more comfortable for the kids. This is especially true when you’re navigating bumps or taking rough terrain on your walks. Strollers that have suspension have bigger wheels, and they typically have more shocks than strollers without. The more comfortable a stroller rides, the more shocks it has.
In addition to being simple to steer, a good wheel suspension can make a twin stroller that has car seats more durable. It will make it last longer and is ideal if are planning to use it for a number of children or over a long period.
One of the best twin strollers that come with car seats for infants has an excellent suspension on the wheels, and it’s one that’s been around for long enough the Baby Trend Snap-N’Go Double. It comes with a variety of features that many parents appreciate, such as two cup holders, a console for parents with a cup holder as well as the storage basket, which can hold a lot. It has a height adjustable handle that is ideal for taller parents.
Chicco BravoFor2 is another popular alternative for twins who have infant car seats. It is a stand-and-sit stroller that can be used with one infant car seat in the front or as twin strollers. It is a very spacious stroller and folds up to a small size. It also comes with a few nice touches that we like such as magnetic straps for crotch that can be closed and opened with just one hand.
It also comes with a 5-point safety harness that keeps your children safe in the case of an accident. This is something that is not always included on strollers, but it is a must for families with toddlers or infants.
The other top pick for twin strollers that have car seats is the Contours Options Elite V2. It comes with all of the features we love such as reversible seats, one-hand reclining, compressing padding in both seats adjustable leg rests, zippered extensions on both canopies and extra-large storage. It also has a height-adjustable handle and a redesigned seat to make it easier to reverse seats on the move.
Canopy
A canopy will shield your children from the elements of rain and sun. Some models have additional features, like a peekaboo or adjustable handles. One of our top picks is the BravoFor2. It BravoFor2 is equipped with the front seat that can be buckled at the waist and shoulders, making it easy for a single caregiver to take both kids out. Its bench seat can only be used by children who are at least 2 1/2, therefore, it’s not suitable for twins or smaller siblings. This stroller is small and has handles on both sides to help you take it to the car.
Some parents prefer a double stroller that can be used together because it is less likely to result in sibling fights. These kinds of strollers allow you to see both children at the same time and make it easier for a parent to monitor and interact with them. The downside is that side-by-side strollers tend to be heavier and more long than single models.
If you are seeking a light and affordable alternative Baby Trend Double Snap-N-Go is a highly rated and affordable choice. It is compatible with two car seats for infants, and the more recent version lets the seats face either way. The newer version is smaller than its predecessor, but still weighs more and is wider than the Joovy TwinRoo+.
Jeep’s Urban Glide 3 is our top-rated twin-jogger for parents that enjoy jogging. It can accommodate a single car seat at a single time. And even though it doesn’t come with a built-in infant carrier it can be used with 23 different car seats via the click-in adapter. It’s a sturdy and well-made stroller, which can carry heavy loads without strain. We also loved the fact that the handles could be adjusted to your height.
If you have two kids with similar age, you may want a sit-and-stand model like the Joovy Twin Roo+. This stroller can fit the infant car seats or a single toddler seat. It also has a standing platform for older children to stand on. It’s a bit more expensive than our budget-friendly stroller, but the company behind it is a small family company with outstanding customer service.
Seating
If you’re planning on using car seats for infant twins A stroller that can accept these seats is essential. A lot of our top-scoring double strollers work with car seat adapters, making them compatible with all the top brands. For instance, the UPPAbaby Vista v2 double works with two car seats and the Joovy Twin Roo+ accommodates one car seat as well as a bassinet (sold separately). We prefer strollers compatible with multiple infant car seats since you can shop from a variety of prices and not be shackled into one brand.
You’ll want to decide whether you prefer a tandem or a side-by-side stroller. double pushchair with a side-byside configuration is more traditional and easier to maneuver, particularly in narrow spaces and over curbs. A tandem stroller could feel unstable and require more space between the seats. The different heights of the seats could also lead to an argument between siblings.
Fortunately, we’ve found that there are plenty of stroller options for families with infant twins or children of the same age. The Baby Trend Sit & Stand double stroller, for instance is a highly-rated option that works with car seats. This allows parents to transfer their babies from their car to the double stroller in comfort.
The stroller’s rear and front storage baskets are spacious, too. These baskets are ideal for storing all your diaper bags, extra clothes, and backpacks. The front storage comes with a place to store keys and phones. The baskets are mesh-sided to stop items from falling, so you don’t have to search around to find them.
Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double is an alternative that is affordable. It provides the same degree of versatility to some of our award-winning strollers. Its seats can be used with two infant car seat carriers, and they can be converted into two toddler seats or modified bassinets that can face either direction. This makes it an excellent option for twins from the time of birth to early childhood.
