Buying a Twin Stroller With Car Seats

When you are a baby you may decide to go with a lightweight frame stroller that can accommodate two infant car seats. The best twin buggy choices include the UPPAbaby Vista V2 Double or Joovy TwinRoo+.

This model lets you turn the car seat carriers in either the opposite direction or in the same. It also comes with a large storage bin, which can be accessed without having to remove the infant carriers. It also fits easily through the majority of doors.

Folding is easy

The Vista V2 from UPPAbaby is a huge, gorgeous twin stroller that carries two infant car seats fitted with the correct adapters (car seat adapters are available separately). It glides around, pushes and turns as a single-seater stroller. It comes with adjustable legs and foot rests, a large UPF 50+ canopy with peekaboo windows and padded five-point safety harnesses that are simple to unfasten and fasten. The included toddler seat can be used, or you can add the RumbleSeat which is a bassinet-like seat for infants and young children. The large storage basket is spacious enough to hold all your belongings and comes with a convenient place to stash your phone or purse as well as four cup holders.

It can be a challenge to fold, especially when you hold the handlebar in one hand and the child's seat in the second. It is also necessary to remove the rear seat from its base to fold the stroller, which is more time-consuming than other double strollers we've tested. The company has upgraded its Vista stroller to be compatible with their new car seat adapters. The new version, which will be launched in April 2023) will work with both the original and updated adapters in both configurations, and it will even fold with two adapters connected at once.

Another option for families with twins is the Joovy TwinRoo+, our most popular infant car seat twin stroller frame. It is compatible with 23 different car seat models and allows you to carry both babies in their infant carriers side-by-side. It's a favorite for many parents who drive cars with smaller wheels, and its clever design cuts down the overall length so that it fits better in some compact trunks. The seats are padded and comfortable, and can recline to a variety of positions at the press of a button. The buckles are among the simplest to secure and remove in our tests.

The only downside to the TwinRoo+ is that its bench seat is specifically designed for a large child who's at least 2 1/2 years old--so it's not suitable for twins or siblings that are close in age. It's still a great option for families who wish to run and the durable structure means it won't deteriorate as fast as other tandems.

Wheel Suspension

The suspension of the wheels of a twin stroller with car seats is a crucial feature because it helps to make it more comfortable for your kids. This is especially true if you're walking on bumps and rough terrain. Strollers with suspension generally have larger wheels and shocks. The more comfortable a stroller rides and the more shocks it comes with.

In addition to being simple to steer, a good wheel suspension also makes a twin stroller that has car seats more robust. It can help it last longer, which is a plus when you intend to use it for multiple kids or for a long period of time.

One of the top twin strollers that come with car seats for infants has great wheel suspension and is one that's been around for since a while The Baby Trend Snap-N-Go Double. It comes with many features parents love, like two cup holders, an integrated parent console with cup holder, and a large storage bin. It also comes with a height-adjustable handle that can be useful for taller parents.

Chicco BravoFor2 is another popular alternative for twins who have infant car seats. This is a sit-and-stand stroller that can be used with an infant car seat in the front or as a twin stroller. It's a large stroller that folds down to a small size. It comes with some nice features, such as magnetic crotch belts that can be opened or closed with one hand.

It also has a 5-point harness, which is vital as it will keep your children safe in case of an accident. This is something that is not always on strollers, but is mandatory for families with toddlers or infants.

Another top choice for twin strollers with car seats is the Contours Options Elite V2. It comes with all the features we love, including reversible seats and one-hand recline, compression padding in both seats adjustable leg rests, zip-up extensions on both canopies and extra-large storage. It also comes with height-adjustable handles and an improved seat design that makes it simpler to flip the seats around when you're on the move.

Canopy

A canopy will protect your children from the sun and rain. Certain models include extra features, such as a peekaboo or adjustable handles. One of our most popular choices that we recommend, the BravoFor2 is equipped with a front seat that buckles at the shoulder and waist--making it easy for a single parent to take both children out. The bench seat can only accommodate children who are at least 2 1/2, so it is not suitable for twins or children with younger siblings. This stroller is compact and comes with handles on both sides to help carry it to your car.

Some parents may prefer a stroller with a side-byside design because it's less prone to sibling squabbles. These strollers let parents see and converse with both children simultaneously. On the other hand, side-by-side strollers are typically heavier and longer than single strollers.

If you're looking for a lightweight option, our budget choice is the Baby Trend Double Snap-N-Go, is a low-cost and highly rated option. It accepts two infant car seats, and the more recent version allows the seats to face either direction. The most recent model is more compact than the predecessor, but 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. This stroller can accommodate one car seat at any given time. It also works with 23 different car seat brands via a click-in-adapter, even though it doesn't come with an infant carrier included. It's a sturdy, well-constructed stroller that can hold large loads without straining. Also, we were impressed by the way the handles adjust to your height.

If you have two kids who are the same age, you might prefer a sit-and-stand model like the Joovy Twin Roo+. It can be used with a pair of infant car seats or a single toddler seat. It also comes with a standing platform for older kids to stand on. It's a tad more expensive than our budget stroller, however, it's manufactured by a small family-owned business with great customer service.

Seating

If you intend to use car seats for twins and a stroller that accepts them is essential. Many of our top-scoring double strollers come with car seat adapters, making them compatible with all the top brands. The UPPAbaby Vista v2 pushchair double stroller can fit two car seats. The Joovy Twin Roo+ can accommodate a single car seat, as well as an infant bassinet. We prefer strollers that work with multiple infant car seats due to the fact that you can choose from a variety of prices and not be locked into one brand.

You'll need to decide if you prefer a tandem or a side-by-side stroller. A side-by-side twin stroller provides an older-fashioned seating arrangement and is easier to maneuver -- especially in narrow spaces or over curbs. A tandem stroller may be unstable and requires more space between the seats. Additionally, the various heights of seats can result in sibling rivalries, so we suggest that you select a tandem stroller only if your children are close to age.

Fortunately, we've found that there are many strollers for families with infant twins or children of the same age. The Baby Trend Sit N' Stand double stroller, for instance is a highly rated option and compatible with car seats. This lets parents move their children from their vehicle to the double stroller with ease.

The stroller's front and rear storage baskets are big, too. They're perfect for storing all your belongings, including backpacks, diapers and even extra clothes. The front storage comes with a place to store your keys and phone. The baskets are sided with mesh to keep objects from falling, meaning you don't have to rummage to find them.

Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double is another option that is budget-friendly. It has the same degree of versatility to some of our award-winning strollers. The seats are compatible with two infant car seat carriers and can convert to two bassinets for toddlers or modified ones that can be used in either direction. This makes it a great option for twins from birth until early childhood.
