The Hidden Secrets Of Double Stroller With Car Seat

Double Stroller With Car Seat Compatability

Parents of twins or other multiples may require a double stroller that can accommodate two infant car seats simultaneously. The TwinRoo+ is a tough frame stroller that can accommodate 23 different car seat models (car seats and adapters are sold separately).

It also features a huge storage basket, cup holders for parents and reversible seating with best-in-class legroom between the 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 fits the majority of infant car seats. It comes with an ample storage basket as well as a parent tray with two cup holders. The stroller is light and folds up easily for storage or travel. It's one of our strollers that is easy to maneuver and has a good side-by-side design. It doesn't do well in our jog tests and has trouble with higher curbs. The swivel wheels at the front don't seem to be able to catch obstacles.

This stroller works with most major brands of infant car seats, and adapters are simple to install. However, the stroller only accepts one infant car seat at a time so parents of twins will need to look for another option if they want to use their infant car seats together. The UPPAbaby Vista v2 Double and the Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double are top choices that can be used with two infant car seats at the same time.

While the Baby Trend is easy to use and comes with a nice basket, it falls short of our ride comfort measure. The stroller does not have shocks that are able to absorb road vibrations and bumps, which can be difficult for little passengers. The absence of reclined seats means that children will feel every bump on the road. It might not be a problem when passengers age however it is important to consider when your children are still infants or toddlers.

This frame stroller weighs just under 40 pounds. However it feels heavy when loaded with passengers and cargo. The lack of a jog lock makes it hard to jog, and it had a hard time with navigating through gravel, grass, and sidewalks in our tests. The BOB Revolution is a lighter choice for jogging, coming in at 41 lbs. It is still a little difficult to carry, but there is a handle that can be used to accomplish this. The jog-strollers have larger wheels that provide superior performance off-road. They have a better-built chassis and are constructed from durable materials that can withstand long-term usage.

The Contours(r) Options Elite V2 Double Stroller

The Contours(r) Options Elite V2 comes with all the features parents are raving about: reversible seating, one-hand recline, adjustable leg rests, zippered extensions on the canopy and a parent cupholder. Plus, it has some amazing new features, like the height-adjustable handle, as well as quilted seats. It comes with seven different types of seating, including the difficult to find double car seat stroller-rear-facing configuration. This allows kids to be able to see each other while keeping an eye on their parents.

One of the best things about this stroller is that it's compatible with multiple infant car seat brands, giving families a range of options and prevents them from being locked into one brand when it comes to strollers that work with baby car seats. The Options Elite works with Graco and Britax infant car seats with an adapter that is universal that also works with 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 side-byside stroller, so it has the look of a Single And double stroller stroller and is able to be used in all doorways and aisles without difficulty. Although it's not as maneuverable as a jogging stroller, it's still an excellent option for road trips or shopping excursions. It weighs a bit more than other double strollers but it's not too heavy for petite women to lift and move.

The seats are comfortable for children, and there's a decent-sized storage basket. The canopy is big, too, and can be zipped off for some sun protection. It's not a lot of storage space for parents' requirements, which can be a problem for some families.

The stroller comes with the foot brake as well as a safety harness. It also comes with a five-point harness for each child. The front wheels are lockable for extra stability, and the ergonomic handles offer an ergonomic grip. It folds up with ease, and it stands when folded. Although it doesn't feature a one-hand fold like others of the top strollers on this list, it's not too difficult to accomplish with a bit of practice and it's quicker than some other tandem models.

Most reviewers are impressed by the ease with which the Pivot Xpand stroller can be expanded to include the second seat.

Evenflo offers a video chat feature for customers to ask any questions or receive assistance with attaching car seats. The only downside for this stroller is its relatively short warranty.

The Jeep Bravo For 2

The Bravo For 2 is an ideal stroller for siblings of similar ages. It's easy to assemble right out of the package and, unlike other sit-and stand options it is relatively light at under 23 pounds. The seats recline in multiple positions to allow your baby or toddler to snooze and there is even a footrest for older kids who require it. The cushioned handle bar is a good position for older children to grasp while standing, even when wearing mittens. Many parents have said that this feature alone makes it more secure than the majority of its competitors.

This stroller has a padded back seat that can accommodate children up to 2 years. This lets you keep your infant rear-facing longer and is a major benefit for parents who are a part of the #TurnAfter2 campaign that encourages toddlers and infants to keep their rears facing until they reach the age of two years old. This seat is easy to buckle, and it comes with the same five-point harness that is used in the front seat.

The Bravo For 2 has another advantage: it can accept a Chicco KeyFit car seat or Fit2 in the front. Simply push down the front seat, slide into your infant carrier and listen for the click that lets you know it is secure. This alone makes it one of the most flexible double strollers out there and will help you avoid wasting money on a stroller that is only used once that is likely to end up in your garage, or even donated to a local second-hand store.

The stroller has one real flaw: it does not come with cup holders or a tray for parents. The storage space is also small double buggy. However, it is still an excellent choice for families with one kiddo who will be walking for the duration of their stroll and younger siblings in a car seat the front. It is also an excellent choice for travel as it will easily fold into smaller dimensions that can be gate-checked on a plane or stow away in your trunk.
