Best Twin Stroller For Newborns

If you're expecting twins, or have two children that are close in age, a double stroller is essential. The top double strollers offer numerous ways to ride your children, including side by side seating and a board attachment.

The Bugaboo Donkey 5 Mono is Lauren Ro's top stroller. It can adapt to your family's needs seamlessly. It can be used with two infant car seats as well as an infant seat. This makes it an ideal option for twins.

Bugaboo Donkey

This is the top double stroller for families searching for a stylish and attractive side-by-side double stroller. It is a little larger than the other Bugaboo models but it's solid and built to last. It has a movable handlebar that retracts and extends easily. It has a decent reach so my husband, who is 6'1", can easily push it, even when he is fully loaded.

The seats are comfortable and can be set up to place one child on top of the other or to have the children face each other. The seats can recline independently of one other. The canopies cover both seat fabrics, if desired. They don't have much ventilation, so they can appear like an oven on hot days. There's no way to see your kids.

One of the most unique features of this stroller is its capacity to grow with your family from one seat (Mono mode) to grow to a double side-by-side stroller. It is the only convertible double stroller that can do this! It can be used in conjunction with a bassinet for newborns or a car seat.

It is easy to navigate on smooth surfaces and is able to handle steps and slopes well. The only downside is that it can be difficult to navigate the midst of crowded restaurants and shops. It can also be difficult to fold, especially when the seats are connected. It is still fairly compact though, and it does fit through most doors easily.

There is an additional storage bin that is attached to the frame to the front seat in mono mode. This is great for groceries and other things. The main storage basket under the seats is massive and can accommodate up to 100 pounds, which is more than any other stroller on this list!

Uppababy Vista V2

This stroller is among the best twin strollers for newborns. It can be used straight from the box as a double stroller and is compatible with numerous bassies and infant car seats. The Vista Upper and Vista Lower adapters allow you to use two infant car seats at once.

Compared to the original Vista, the V2 has made a few improvements to make it better. The toddler seat is about an inch taller, the footrest has more space and the canopy comes with a zip-out fabric extender that adds extra coverage. The harness has been updated since it doesn't need to be re-threaded. This makes it easier to adjust.

The stroller comes with fairly large wheels (8 inches in the front and 11.5'' in the back) with strong suspension, so it can easily handle any terrain. The front wheels are rubber which makes them suitable for navigating through rocks, gravel and cobblestones. While the rear wheels have more tread to tackle paths and grassy hills.

Another excellent feature is the possibility to attach a child's bike to the front of the stroller, which is an ideal option for parents who aren't interested in using an infant car seat or Rumbleseat. If you have a child who is able to stand in the Vista, the Vista can even fit a third kid with its piggyback ride along board accessory.

The Vista is easy to use and install. It does take some time to get rid of the protective packaging. The instructions are easy to follow, and there's also an YouTube video available if you need more help.

Thule Urban Glide 3

The Thule Urban Glide 3 is the latest version of the popular stroller that is designed to draw the attention of modern families who are a fan of style, sustainability, and adventure. It comes with exciting improvements, including a built-in leg rest and a new reclined seat that provides unbeatable comfort for children during long walks and jogs. Its sleek, agile design improves its mobility.

Although the new Urban Glide 3 offers superior performance, it also retains the classic Thule characteristics that make it an ideal jogger for parents.

Cortina Together

Cortina Together is designed for families that are growing and offers parents a variety of seating options to meet the preferences and needs of every child. The two stroller seats of the double stroller feature reclining backrests, and canopies that are separate. The seats are also designed to take Chicco's KeyFit or KeyFit 30, the #1 baby car seat in both the front and rear seat. (Car seat sold separately).

A large, zipper-access basket in the rear offers ample storage space for the equipment. The handle is padded to accommodate mom or dad. The suspension and wheels of the tandem double stroller offer smooth riding on all terrains. The 1-touch linked rear breaks when activated by a toe-tap, making stopping easy.

In our Strollers & Multiples laboratory tests, Cortina Together received high scores for its ease of use. This metric is based on how easy it is to set up and fold the stroller, adjust the safety harness, open and close the snack tray, disengage and engage the brakes, lift and carry the stroller as if placing it into a trunk, and for pushchairs double strollers double strollers compatible install and take off the infant car seat.

The model has a few flaws. First, it's heavy. It weighs 36.6 pounds when fully loaded and puts it closer to the beast end of our metrics. It also is not able to see clearly in the back seat when the car seat is in place. The front tray release isn't always easy to use, especially after prolonged usage. However, despite these issues, we believe that this is an excellent stroller for your family.

Jeep Double Stroller

The Jeep Destination Ultralight Side x Side Double Stroller is an affordable, lightweight stroller that is ideal for families with two kids. Its front swivel lock wheels rotate to maneuver on flat surfaces, and lock for stability on bumpy ones, making it easy to get where you'd like to go. It comes with a compact folding umbrella that can be closed in just a few seconds. It also stands upright to make transporting it easier. Its aluminum frame is lightweight, and its foam handle and carrying strap makes it one of the most easy double strollers to lift in our tests.

This tandem stroller features reclined seats that can be independently adjusted for maximum comfort. Its oversized canopy extends to provide UPF 50 sun protection, and it has a peekaboo window that allows to allow for easy monitoring. We wish the canopy was ventilated to allow for more airflow, however. We didn't like the fact that the cup holder is very high up on the frame. You'll have to bend down in order to reach it.

In our tipping test, the Jeep tipped over at a 39 degree angle, which is more than the norm for the double pram. It's a little heavier, but offers more storage space for the price. The handle and seats are also well-padded.

This stroller is multi-functional and has three modes. It can be used as a cart (for stuff), the jogger mode (with two safety belts with five points for kids) or car seat mode. It can accommodate a single car seat for infants. However, pediatricians suggest that you wait until your child is six months old to run with them. It's black and has a limited lifetime warranty.
