How Easy Is It to Push and Fold a Double Stroller?

When you're taking your toddler for a walk or jogging with your twins, the perfect double stroller makes it easier for everyone to move around. Choosing a double stroller that can be folded and easy to push is essential.

Our Lab experts recommend side by side models with equal recline, plenty of storage space and car seat adapters to fit infants.

Seating

Seating options are important when choosing a double-stroller. Based on your kids' ages and stages You may want to consider a side-byside option that lets both children sit together, or a tandem style that allows one child to stand while the other is sitting.

The seating arrangement also affects your comfort while walking through busy streets and sidewalks. Consider looking for strollers with reclined seats, footrests that recline and ample canopy options that provide shade for both passengers. Also, avoid hanging bags on the handlebars because they can change the stroller's weight and increase tipping.

Double strollers of high-quality will also have convenient storage compartments to store your essentials. Look for compartments under the seats or behind the seats. These are excellent places to store your snacks, toys, and other essentials. You can also use organizer bags and consoles for parents attached to the handles of the car to keep things in your hand on walks or outings.

For those with little ones who are getting older, a side-by-side stroller might be the best option. They tend to be more stable and provide better visibility for both of the passengers than stacking strollers. Some options can accommodate two infant car seats, allowing you to transfer your sleeping children from the car to the pram without waking them.

Sit-and-stand strollers are a great option for parents with older children who don't mind their kids sitting on their own and prefer some independence. They can also permit an older child to ride along on the front. This kind of double-stroller is not newborn-compatible and may require more maintenance over time. However, it can be a great option for active families that are looking for the flexibility of a single stroller that transforms into a two-kid model.

The best double strollers are strong and easy to maneuver even on rough terrain or in tight spaces. They're also light and fold up for compact storage in your garage or trunk making them easy to transport and manage when traveling. They also have robust construction to ensure the longevity and safety of your children. Furthermore, they comply with the American Academy of Pediatricians' (AAP) guidelines for safety.

Canopy

A canopy protects both the passengers and the sun, and some models come with a visor to further shield kids' faces. Our top-scoring models for canopy options included the BOB Revolution Flex v3.0 Duallie, and the UPPAbaby Vista v2 Dual. Both come with huge shades. Both models provide plenty of coverage and protect children from head to toe, while inline models often do not have shade, or offer a single canopy which only covers one seat. This can be problematic for siblings who require different levels protection.

Many of our top-rated canopys can be fitted onto strollers with ease. Be sure to verify the dimensions of the model prior to making a purchase, as some canopy may require extra space in the basket to allow for full extension, and to prevent hitting the handles when folded.

Some parents prefer double strollers that come with an infant bassinet and car seat adapters to give them more options in the future. The UPPAbaby Vist v2 Double, for instance, has a toddler seat as well as an add-on RumbleSeat. This makes it a great option for families with twins or young kids and need to transport them simultaneously. This stroller has an unique sit-and-stand configuration for older children who prefer to travel alone.

Other accessories that can make your stroller more functional include parent consoles or bags that organize, which allow you to keep your essentials in reach. They are especially useful for strollers that aren't frequently used or when you want to stash toys and snacks away from prying eyes. Some of these accessories are attached via a strap or snap, making it easy to remove them when you're ready for the stroller to be used again.

If you're thinking of an investment that will last for a long time, look for a double stroller that is compatible with infant car seats. It can also be converted into a toddler stroller complete with a bench seat or glider board. The Graco RoomFor2 pushchair travel system System and the UPPAbaby Vista V2 Duallie both feature a bassinet that is compatible with car seats with a toddler seat as well as RumbleSeat. Both strollers can be converted into triple strollers with the addition a running board. This is perfect for families with one child who likes to be on the go.

Wheels

The type of wheels that a stroller has makes an impact on how it is easy to push. Generally, larger wheels are more maneuverable and are able to handle more terrain. The material used to make the wheels also affects how they are easy or difficult to push. Rubber wheels, for instance, are typically more durable and can withstand rougher surfaces than plastic wheels.

Stroller wheels come in different designs, sizes and materials to suit a variety of requirements and environments. Wheels that swivel, for instance, can make it easier to maneuver around tight corners and spaces. Fixed-wheels are more stable and ideal for smooth surfaces. If you are planning to use your stroller on uneven terrain or off-road air-filled tires are more suitable than the standard rubber tires. These tires are similar to bicycle tires, which absorb shocks for better comfort on the road.

Side-by-side double strollers can be larger than tandem strollers and can be difficult to fit through narrow doorways or crowded aisles in stores. They give your children equal seating space and allow them to stretch out their legs. They're usually also easier to steer and maneuver than tandem strollers.

If you intend to use your stroller for running or biking, look for double joggers with all-terrain or jogging tires. These tires are bigger and more robust, and also have sealed ball bearings for a smoother ride on uneven surfaces. Certain models, like the Baby Jogger City Mini GT2 Double Stroller are compatible with a car seats that allow you to run while your children are safely strapped into their car seats.

Other all-terrain/jogging strollers like the Valco Baby Tri Mode Duo X allow an additional child in the front, but are too heavy to be classified as umbrella doubles. In our tests the restraint buckles on this model were among the most difficult to secure, which could be a problem when you're trying to get two children into the stroller at once. This stroller costs hundreds more than the top single to tandem model, but it comes with high-quality materials as well as a good resale price.

Storage

A great double stroller must have ample storage space for both children and parents. Insufficient storage can make it difficult for parents to complete errands or take along all the gear needed for a trip with two kids. In our Lab tests the UPPAbaby Vista v2 Double scored excellently in this metric, with a large and easily accessible basket that can hold up to 30lbs.

Strollers that have multiple compartments or pockets can aid families in keeping track of small items, such as phones, keys, and wallets. A parent console or organizer bag that is attached to the handlebars may provide a convenient place for moms and dads to store their own personal belongings during outings with their kids.

In addition to a spacious basket the UPPAbaby Vista comes with two infant car seats (though not both bassinets) It also comes with an adjustable handlebar that telescopically extends and easy-to-use brakes. It also has the biggest maximum weight capacity in our lineup, and an adjustable fold that will fit most standard door frames.

On the flip side our test subjects discovered that the wagon-style Joovy Caboose Ultralight Graphite has a great adjustable handlebar, ideal for parents of various heights. The wagon comes with two UV screens that fold up to ensure complete sun protection, and its cup holders as well as snack tray can be used to hold different bottles for children and snacks.

The biggest challenge for any stroller is the ability to fold it and then get it back into shape after use, especially when you have a toddler and an infant in the stroller. That's why it's important to select a stroller that is easy to fold and easy fold. The UPPAbaby Vista v2 and Evenflo Pivot Xpand both feature a simple, single-handed mechanism that allows parents to swiftly and easily fold their strollers, no matter which configuration they are in.

While a double stroller might seem like a daunting purchase, parents who intend to utilize the product for several years should be aware that they'll typically pay more for this kind of equipment than single strollers. It's also worth determining if a stroller can be divided into pieces for easier transport and storage, which is an important consideration if you have limited space for your vehicle or living space.
