Buying a Twin Stroller With Car Seats

During the baby days, you might choose to go with a lightweight frame stroller that can accommodate two infant car seats. Some of the best options include the UPPAbaby Vista V2 Double or Joovy TwinRoo+.

This model allows you to rotate the car seat in the opposite direction or in the same. It also comes with an enormous storage bin which can be opened without the need to take off the infant carriers. It also fits easily through the majority of doorways.

Ease of Folding

The UPPAbaby Vista V2 is a huge, beautiful twin stroller. It can hold two infant car seats when fitted with the appropriate adapters (car-seat adapters are sold separately). It glids, pushes and turns like a single-seater stroller. It comes with an adjustable leg and foot rests, a generous UPF 50+ canopy with peekaboo windows and padded five-point security harnesses that are easy to secure and remove. It comes with a toddler seat, or you can add the RumbleSeat, which is a bassinet-like seat for infants and small children. The oversized storage basket is spacious enough to accommodate all your items and comes with a convenient place to store your phone or purse, and four cup holders.

But it's also awkward to fold, especially if you have one hand on the handlebar and the other on the car seat of your child. It is also necessary to remove the rear seat from its base in order to fold the stroller, which can take longer than other double pram and pushchair strollers that we test. The company has updated its Vista stroller to be compatible with the new car seat adapters. The latest version (launched in April 2023) is compatible with adapters that were originally used and the new ones. It can also be folded using two adapters connected simultaneously.

Another option for families with twins is the Joovy TwinRoo+, our preferred infant car seat twin stroller frame. It is compatible with 23 different car seat models and allows you to carry twins in infant carriers side-by-side. It's a popular choice for parents who drive cars with smaller wheels and its innovative design cuts down the overall length so that it fits better in some compact trunks. The seats are cushioned and comfortable, and they recline to various positions with the touch of one button. The buckles are among the easiest to secure and remove in our tests.

The only issue with the TwinRoo+ is that its bench seat is designed for a big kid who's at minimum 2 1/2 years old. So it's not a good choice for twins or siblings that are close in age. It's still a great option for families who want to run, and the sturdy structure means it won't wear as quickly as other tandems.

Wheel Suspension

The suspension of the wheel of a twin stroller that comes with car seats is an important feature since it can make it more comfortable for your kids. This is especially important when you're crossing bumps or taking rough terrain on your walks. Strollers with suspension generally have larger wheels and shocks. The smoother a stroller rides and the more shocks it comes with.

In addition to being simple to steer, a good wheel suspension can make a twin stroller that has car seats more robust. It will last longer and is ideal if are planning to use it with multiple children or for a long time.

The Baby Trend Snap-N-Go Double is among the top twin strollers for infants with car seats. It features a fantastic wheel suspension, and it's an old model. It's loaded with features that parents appreciate, such as two cup holders, a console for parents with a cup holder and the storage basket, which can accommodate a lot. It comes with 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 sit-and- stand stroller that can be used as a twin stroller or with a single infant seat in front. It's a large stroller and folds up to a compact size. It also has some pleasant features we like for example, magnetic crotch straps that can be closed and opened by using just one hand.

It is also equipped with a five-point safety harness that will keep your children safe in the case of an accident. That's something that's not always found on strollers, but it should be mandatory for any family with infants or toddlers.

The Contours Options Elite V2 is another top option for twin strollers that can accommodate carseats. It comes with all the features we love, including recline with one hand and reversible seating with a the ability to compress the padding on both seats, adjustable legs rests, a zippered extension on both canopy, and a large storage. It also has height-adjustable handles and an improved seat design that makes it simpler to turn the seats back while on the move.

Canopy

A canopy will shield your children from the elements of rain and sun. Some models come with additional features, like the ability to peek behind or adjust the handles. One of our top picks, the BravoFor2 includes a front seat with a buckle that can be adjusted to the waist and shoulders. This makes it easy for a single parent to take two kids out. The bench seat is designed to hold a child who's at least 2 1/2 years old. older, so it's not the best option for twins or younger siblings. However, we liked that this stroller folds into a compact size and comes with a handle on each side to help you roll it up to the car.

Some parents prefer a double stroller that can be used side-by-side as it is less likely to cause sibling disputes. These strollers let you see both children at the same time and make it easier for parents to supervise and converse with them. On the other hand, side-by-side models tend to be heavier and longer than single strollers.

If you're looking for a light option, our budget pick is the Baby Trend Double Snap-N-Go, is a reasonable and highly rated choice. It can accommodate two car seats for infants and the newer version lets the seats face either direction. The latest version is more compact than the previous model, however it still weighs more and is longer than the Joovy TwinRoo+.

Jeep's Urban Glide 3 is our top-rated twin-jogger for parents who enjoy jogging. It can accommodate one car seat at a time--and even though it doesn't have an infant carrier built-in, it works with 23 different car seats using the click-in adapter. It's a sturdy, well-built stroller that can handle heavy loads with ease and without stress. We also loved the fact that the handles can be adjusted to fit your height.

If you have two children of the same age you may prefer an option that lets you stand and sit like the Joovy Twin Roo+. The stroller can accommodate two infant car seats, or one toddler seat. It also has an elevated platform for older children to stand on. It's a tad more expensive than our budget stroller but it's made by a small, family-owned business with great customer service.

Seating

If you are planning to use car seats for twin infants, then a stroller which can take them is necessary. A majority of our top-scoring double strollers are compatible with car seat adapters, making them compatible with all the top 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 bassinet (sold separately). We prefer strollers that work with multiple infant car seats since you can pick from a wide range of prices and not be locked to one brand.

You'll need to decide whether you prefer a tandem or side-by-side stroller. A side-by-side twin stroller provides a more traditional seating configuration and is also more maneuverable -- especially in tight spaces or over curbs. A tandem stroller could be unstable and requires more space between the seats. The different seat heights could result in fighting between siblings.

There are a variety of strollers available for families with twins or children who are the same age. The Baby Trend Sit & Stand double stroller, for instance, is a highly rated option that is compatible with car seats. This allows parents to carry their children comfortably from their car to the stroller.

The stroller's rear and front storage baskets are spacious as well. These baskets are ideal for storing all your diaper bags, extra clothes, and backpacks. The front storage also comes with a place to store keys and phones. The baskets have mesh sides to stop items from falling out, meaning you don't have to look around for them.

Another option that is budget-friendly is the Evenflo Pivot Xpand cheap double stroller stroller, which offers a similar range of features as some of our top award winners. Its seats can be used with two infant car seat carriers, and they can convert to two toddler seats or modified bassinets that can face either direction. This makes it an excellent option for twins from birth to early childhood.
