Double Stroller With Car Seat Compatability
Parents of twins or other multiples may want a double stroller which can accommodate two infant car seats simultaneously. The TwinRoo+ is a tough frame stroller that fits 23 different car seat models (car seats and adapters are sold separately).
The car also comes with an ample storage basket as well as cup holders for parents, and seats that can be reversible, giving the most legroom in its class. It has two seats.
The Baby Trend(r), Universal Double Snap-N-Go (r)
The Baby Trend(r) Universal Double Snap-N-Go (r) is a fantastic stroller that is compatible with most infant car seats. It comes with a large basket for storage, as well as a parent tray with two cup holders. The stroller is lightweight and folds easily for storage or transport. It is one of our strollers that is easy to maneuver and has a nice side-by-side design. It's not very effective in our jog test, and isn't as adept on steeper curbs. The front wheels that swivel have trouble with catching on obstacles.
This stroller is compatible with all major brands of infant car seats and the adapters are easy to install. The stroller can only fit one infant car seat at a given time, so parents with twins must look for a different way to use their infant carseats simultaneously. The UPPAbaby Vista v2 double as well as the Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double have high scores for their ability to hold two infant car seats simultaneously.
While the Baby Trend is easy to use and has a nice basket, it is not quite as good in our ride comfort measure. The stroller does not have shocks that are able to absorb road bumps and vibrations which can be a challenge for little passengers. The lack of a reclined seat means that children will feel every bump in the road. This might not be an issue when the passengers get older but it's an important thing to think about if your children are toddlers or infants.
This frame stroller weighs under 40 pounds. However, it is heavy when loaded with passengers and cargo. It's hard to jog without a jog lock and it was a bit difficult traversing gravel, grass and sidewalks during our tests. The BOB Revolution Flex is a better choice for jogging and is lighter at around 41 lbs. It is still a little difficult to lift, however there is a handle that can be used for this purpose. Jog strollers have the advantage of having larger wheels to provide better off-road performance. They also have a more sturdy chassis and are constructed of durable materials that can be used for a long time.
The Contours(r) Options Elite V2 Double Stroller
The Contours(r), Options Elite V2 includes the features parents are raving about: reversible seating, one-hand recline, adjustable leg rests and zippered extensions for both canopies. It also comes with a cup holder for parents. It also has some great new features, like the height-adjustable handles as well as a quilted seat. It comes with seven different types of seating, including the hard-to-find double-rear-facing position. This allows children to look at each other while keeping an eye on their parents.
This stroller's compatibility with multiple infant car seats is among its most appealing features. It provides families with more options and keeps them from being confined to one brand of stroller that is compatible with the baby car seat. The Options Elite is compatible with Graco infant car seats as well as Britax double car seats. It also supports the UPPAbaby Mesa or Baby Jogger City Select double seats. It also has an additional adapter in case you have twins, or need to use two infant car seat.
It's not a side-by-side stroller and has the look of a single stroller, and can be used in all doorways and aisles without difficulty. It's not as easy to maneuver as a jogging stroller, but it's still a great option for shopping trips and road excursions. It weighs slightly more than other double strollers, however it's not too heavy for petite women to lift and maneuver.
The seats are quite comfortable for children, and there's a decent-sized storage basket. The canopy is big as well, and can be zipped off for a bit more sun protection. It does not have much storage space for the parent's requirements, which can be a problem for some families.
This stroller has the foot brake, a safety harness and a five point harness for each child. The front wheels can be locked to provide stability, and the handles are ergonomically designed. It folds up with a simple process and then it can stand when folded. While it doesn't have an easy one-hand fold like some of the other top strollers on this list it's not a problem to do with a little practice, and the process is quicker than some other tandem models.
The Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double
The Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double is a budget-friendly model that will grow with your family. It offers car seat compatibility and reversible seating in a sleek, modern stroller frame. double pram and pushchair comes with easy-to-use daily features and a convenient one-handed fold, with a self-stand which is remarkable for a less expensive model. It has a more substantial feel than the competition, and smaller wheels that make it difficult to push off-road, in tight turns, or through doorways that are narrow.
This stroller can be used with an infant car seat or toddler seats that are sold separately. There is no need for adapters. The frame of the stroller can be expanded in a matter of seconds, by adding a second seat. This is done without the need for tools or additional parts. It can also be configured in 23 different ways across the USA to accommodate toddlers and infants at different heights. The second seat can also be used to hold baby in a comfortable position in infant mode, or for older kids in stroller mode. It comes with three reclining positions and a footrest that is adjustable in five positions.
A large, spacious storage basket as well as back- and front-facing seat pockets enhance the stroller's functionality The cushioned, curved seat offers the most comfortable ride for passengers. An extendable canopy keeps children shielded from the sun's rays, and an open window allows parents to watch their children.
The addition of the Stroller Rider Board creates a tandem for siblings to ride together, or be used in lieu of the standard toddler seat. A flex-hold cup holder holds a variety of beverage sizes and the stroller can fold with the toddler seat to allow easy access to storage space.
The majority of reviewers are impressed by the ease with which the Pivot Xpand stroller can be extended to include an additional seat. Some have mentioned that it is difficult to attach an infant car seat on the included mounts, while attaching the second toddler seat is easier and faster. Evenflo offers a video chat feature for customers to ask any questions or seek assistance in installing car seats. The only other significant drawback for this stroller is its short warranty.
The Jeep Bravo For 2
The Bravo For 2 is a great stroller for siblings who are close in age. It is easy to assemble straight out from the box and, unlike many sit-and-stand options it is surprisingly light at less than 23 pounds. The seats are able to recline in different positions to allow your infant or toddler to rest and even have a footrest for older kids who need it. The padded handle bar is in an ideal position for older children to grip when standing, even while wearing mittens. This feature has been mentioned by many parents as a reason for why it is more secure than many of its competitors.
This stroller has a padded back seat that can fit a child of up to two years. This allows you to keep your child rear-facing for longer, which is a big advantage for parents who adhere to the #TurnAfter2 campaign that encourages babies and toddlers to keep their rears facing until at least two years old. The seat is easy to buckle and comes with the same great five-point harness as the front seat.
Another plus for the Bravo For 2 is that it can accept a Chicco KeyFit or Fit2 car seat in the front. It is easy to attach your baby carrier by lowering the front seat and then snapping it into. This feature alone makes it one of the most flexible double strollers on the market and will help you avoid wasting money on a single-use stroller that is likely to end up in your garage, or even donated to a secondhand store in your area.
The stroller has one problem It doesn't include a cup holder or a tray for parents. The storage space is also restricted. But, it's an excellent choice for families with just one child who will be walking for the duration of their stroll with an older sibling in a car seat up the front. It is also a great option for traveling, as it folds easily into a smaller size to be gate-checked on a plane or stored in your trunk.
