Buying a Twin Stroller With Car Seats

You might opt for an ultra-light frame that can accommodate two car seats during the first few months of life. The best options include the UPPAbaby Vista V2 Double and Joovy twinRoo+.

This model lets you change the car seat carriers in the opposite direction or the same. It also has a large storage bin, which can be opened without the need to take off the infant carriers. It is also able to fit through most doors.

Folding is easy

The Vista V2 from UPPAbaby is a stunning, huge twin stroller that holds two infant car seats with the correct adapters (car seat adapters are sold separately). It glides and pushes easily with a smooth, smooth spin similar to a single-seat stroller. It comes with an adjustable leg and foot rests, a large UPF 50+ canopy with windows that peek out at the sky, and padded five-point safety harnesses that are easy to unfasten and fasten. You can use the included toddler seat, or choose to add the RumbleSeat, which is a bassinet like seat for babies and small children. The large storage basket is spacious enough to hold all your belongings and includes a handy place to store your phone or purse and four cup holders.

It can be difficult to fold, particularly if you are holding the handlebar in one second hand double buggy and the seat for your child in the other. You'll also have to remove the rear seat from its base in order to fold the stroller, which takes longer than other double buggy side by side strollers we test. The company has updated its Vista stroller to be compatible with the new car seat adapters. The new version (launched in April 2023) is compatible with both the original adapters as well as the updated ones. It can also be folded using two adapters connected simultaneously.

Another option for families with twins is the Joovy TwinRoo+, our preferred twin stroller for infants. frame. It is compatible with 23 different car seat models and allows you to carry both babies in their infant carriers side-by side. It's a long-time favorite of parents driving smaller cars, and its clever design reduces the overall length to fit better into smaller trunks. The seats are comfortable and padded, and they can be reclined in a variety of positions by pressing a button. The buckles were among the most simple to tighten and unwind in our tests.

The only drawback of the TwinRoo+ is its bench seat, which is designed for an older child that is at or above 2 1/2. It's not suitable for twins or siblings with similar age. It's still a great choice for families who want to exercise and the robust structure means it won't wear as quickly as other tandems.

Wheel Suspension

The wheel suspension of a twin stroller with car seats is a crucial feature as it helps make it more comfortable for your children. This is particularly true if you're going over bumps or taking rough terrain during your walks. Strollers that have suspension usually come with larger wheels and shocks. The more shocks a stroller comes with the smoother its travel.

In addition to being easy to steer, a good wheel suspension can make a twin stroller that has car seats more robust. It will last longer and is a great option if you intend to use it with multiple children or for a prolonged time.

The Baby Trend Snap-N-Go Double is among the best twin strollers for infants with car seats. It has great wheel suspension, and it's an older model. It is packed with features that parents love, like two cup holders, an integrated parent console that has a cup holder, and a large storage basket. It also has a handle that can be adjusted to height that can be useful for taller parents.

Another option for twins with infant car seats is the Chicco BravoFor2. This is a sit and stand stroller that can either be used as a twin stroller or with a single infant seat in the front. It has a ton of storage space and is compact when folded. It has some nice extras, such as magnetic crotch belts that can be opened or closed with one hand.

It also comes with a 5-point safety harness that keeps your children secure in the case of an accident. This feature isn't always found on strollers, but is a must for families with toddlers or infants.

The Contours Options Elite V2 is another top choice for twin strollers that accommodate car seats. It comes with all the features we like, including the ability to reversibly seat and recline one hand as well as the ability to compress the padding on both seats, adjustable legs rests, zippered extension on both canopy and extra-large storage. It also has a height-adjustable handles and an improved seat design that makes it easier to flip the seats around when you're on the move.

Canopy

A good canopy keeps your children safe from rain or sun Some models include extra features, such as a peekaboo window or adjustable handles. One of our top choices that we recommend, the BravoFor2, has the front seat that is adjustable at the waist and shoulders, making it simple for a single person to take both kids out. Its bench seat can only accommodate children of at least 2 1/2, therefore it's not suitable for twins or younger siblings. However, we liked the fact that it folds down into a compact size and comes with a handle on both sides to help move it to your car.

Some parents prefer a Double Buggy stroller that can be used side-by-side as it is less likely to result in sibling fights. These types of strollers also allow you to view both children at once which makes it easier for parents to supervise and converse with them. The downside is that side-by-side strollers are usually heavier and longer than single models.

If you are seeking a light and affordable alternative the Baby Trend Double Snap N-Go is a highly-rated and cost-effective option. It is compatible with two infant car seats, and the newer version allows the seats to be positioned in any direction. We found the latest model to be more compact than its predecessor, however it still weighs a little more and is longer than the Joovy TwinRoo+.

Jeep's Urban Glide 3 is our top-rated twin-jogger that parents prefer to run. This stroller double can accommodate one car seat at any given time. It also works with 23 different brands of car seats via an adapter that clicks in, even though it doesn't come with an infant carrier built-in. It's a sturdy and well-constructed stroller that can carry big loads without straining. And we loved how the handles can be adjusted to suit your height.

If you have two kids who are the same age, you may want a sit-and-stand model like the Joovy Twin Roo+. This stroller is able to accommodate two infant car seats, or one toddler seat. It also has a platform for older kids to stand on. It's more expensive than our budget stroller, however, it's manufactured by a small family-owned company with a great customer service.

Seating

If you are planning to use car seats for twins, then a stroller which accepts them is essential. Our top-scoring strollers are compatible with the most popular car seat brands. For example 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 that work with multiple infant car seat brands, as it lets you shop at a greater variety of prices without having to commit to the same brand.

You'll also want to consider whether you'd prefer a side-by-side or tandem stroller. A twin stroller with a side-by-side design offers a more traditional seating configuration and is more maneuverable -- particularly in tight spaces or over curbs. A tandem stroller however, can feel more unstable and requires more space between the seats. The different heights of the seats could also lead to fighting between siblings.

We've discovered that there are plenty of stroller options for families with infant twins or children who are similar in age. The Baby Trend Sit N' Stand double pram buggy stroller, for example is a highly-rated option and compatible with car seats. This lets parents carry their children comfortably from the vehicle to the stroller.

The rear and front baskets of the stroller are also large. They're ideal for storing everything you need, including diaper bags, backpacks and other clothes. The front storage also includes a space for your phone and keys. The baskets come with mesh sides to stop items from falling out, meaning you won't have to search for them.

Another option that is budget-friendly is the Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double stroller, which offers a similar versatility to some of our more expensive award winners. Its seats can be used with two infant car seat carriers and can convert to two bassinets for toddlers or modified ones that can face either direction. This makes it an ideal option for twins from birth to early childhood.
