Double Stroller With Car Seat Compatability
Parents with twins and other multiples may require a double stroller that can hold two infant car seats simultaneously. The TwinRoo+ is a tough frame stroller that fits 23 different car seat models (car seats and adapters sold separately).
The car also comes with a large storage basket and cup holders for parents, and reversible seats with the best 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 great stroller that will fit the majority of infant car seat carriers. It has an ample storage basket as well as a parent tray with two cup holders. The stroller is light and folds easily to store or travel. It is one of the easiest strollers to use and is very maneuverable for a side-by-side design. It was not as efficient in our jog test and was unable to handle higher curbs. The swivel wheels on front don't seem to be able to catch obstacles.
This stroller can be used with all major brands of infant car seats and adapters are easy to install. The stroller only accepts one infant car seat at a time, so parents of twins must consider a different option if they want to use their infant car seats together. The UPPAbaby Vista v2 Double and the Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double are top scoring options that can be used with two infant car seats simultaneously.
While the Baby Trend is easy to use and comes with a nice basket, it falls short of our ride comfort measure. The stroller lacks shocks that absorb road vibrations and bumps which could be challenging for children to ride. The lack of a reclined seat means that children will feel every bump that comes along the road. It may not be a problem when passengers age however it is important to take into consideration when your children are infants or toddlers.
This is a fairly lightweight frame stroller, weighing less than 40 pounds. It is however heavy when loaded with passengers and cargo. It's difficult to jog with no jog lock, and it had difficulty in navigating gravel, grass and sidewalks during our tests. The BOB Revolution Flex is a better option for jogging, and it weighs less at 41 lbs. It's still difficult to lift, however there is a handle that can be used for this purpose. The jog strollers benefit from having larger wheels for more off-road performance. They are built better and are made from robust materials that can stand up to long-term usage.
The Contours(r), Options Elite V2 double stroller
The Contours(r), Options Elite V2 comes with features that parents love: reversible seating, one-hand recline as well as adjustable leg rests and zippered extensions for both canopy. It also includes a parent cupholder. In addition, it comes with amazing new features, like the height-adjustable handle and quilted seats. It also comes with seven different seating options that include the difficult-to-find double rear facing position, allowing kids to see each other while watching dad and mom.
One of the best things about this stroller is that it is compatible with a variety of infant car seat brands, giving families a wide range of options and prevents the stroller from being tied to one brand when it is about strollers that work with baby car seats. The Options Elite can be used with Graco and Britax infant car seats with an adapter universal to all brands, and it also accepts the UPPAbaby Mesa and Baby Jogger City Select double car seats. It also has an additional adapter to accommodate those who have twins or wish to use two infant car seats.
It's not a stroller that is side-by-side, so it has the look of one stroller and can be used in all aisles and doorways with ease. It's not as maneuverable as a jogging stroller however it's still a great choice for road trips and shopping excursions. It weighs a bit heavier than other double strollers, but it's not too heavy for petite women to lift and move.
The seats are comfy for kids and the storage bin is a good size. The canopy is also big and can be removed to provide more sun protection. It doesn't have enough storage space for the parent's needs, which could be a problem for some families.
The stroller comes with an electronic foot brake, a safety harness and a five point harness for each child. The front wheels are lockable for added stability, and the ergonomic handles provide a comfortable grip. It folds down with ease and then it can stand when folded. It's not able to fold with just one hand as other strollers in this list however, it's not difficult after a few hours of practice.
The Evenflo Pivot Double
Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double stroller is a budget-friendly, stylish and modern stroller that can grow with your family. It comes with car seat compatibility, reversible seating, and a stylish frame. This stroller is easy to use everyday features and a convenient one-handed fold, with a self-stand, which is impressive for a lower-priced model. It has a firmer feel than the other models, and has smaller wheels which make it difficult to push off-road in tight turns, or through narrow doorways.
This stroller can be used with two infant car seats or toddler seats (sold separately) and no adapters are required. The frame of the stroller can be extended in a matter of seconds by adding another seat. This is accomplished without the need for tools or extra parts. It can also be set up in 23 different ways across the USA to accommodate infants and toddlers at different heights. The second seat can also be used to hold baby in a comfortable position in infant mode or for older children, in stroller mode with three reclining positions as well as a footrest that is adjustable in five positions.
The large, oversized basket and the back-and-front-accessible seat pocket increase the value of this stroller. Moreover, a padded, contoured, seat provides maximum comfort for the passengers. A canopy that can be extended keeps children shielded from the sun's rays, while the peek-aboo window lets parents to monitor their little ones.
The addition of the Stroller Rider Board creates a tandem that allows siblings to ride together, or be used as an alternative to the standard toddler seat. A cup holder that flex-holds can hold different sizes of drinks and the stroller folds with an attached toddler seat for easy access to storage space.
Most reviewers appreciate how easily the Pivot Xpand double stroller expands to include an additional seat. Some reviewers have mentioned that attaching an infant car seat to the integrated mounts can be difficult, but attaching the second toddler's car seat is much more simple and quick. Evenflo has an option to video chat with customers to ask questions and get assistance in installing car seats that is a nice touch. The only downside is the relatively short warranty.
The Jeep Bravo For 2
The Bravo For 2 is an excellent stroller that is ideal for siblings of similar age. It is simple to put together right out from the box and unlike other sit-and-stand strollers it is surprisingly light at under 23 pounds. The seats can recline in various positions so that your baby or toddler can nap. There is also a footrest available for older children who need it. double buggy is an ideal position for children older than 5 years old to hold while standing, even if wearing gloves. Many parents have said that this feature alone makes it safer than the vast majority of its rivals.
This stroller comes with a cushioned back seat that can fit children up to two years. This lets you keep the infant rear-facing for longer. This is a huge benefit for parents adhering to the #TurnAfter2 campaign which encourages infants and children to remain rear facing until they reach two years of age. This seat is easy to buckle and is equipped with the same five-point harness as the front seat.
Another benefit of the Bravo For 2 is that it can be used with the Chicco KeyFit or Fit2 car seat in the front. Simply push down the front seat, slide into your infant carrier and listen for the sound that indicates it is safe. This makes it one of the most versatile double strollers you can find. It also allows you to avoid wasting money by buying a stroller that is only used once and ends up in your garage or donated to a second-hand shop.
The stroller has one major flaw it doesn't come with an holder for cups or tray for parents. The storage space is also restricted. However, it is still an excellent option for families with just one child who will be walking for the entirety of their stroll and younger siblings in a car seat front. It is also a great choice for traveling, as it folds easily into a smaller size to be gate-checked on an airplane or tucked away in your trunk.
