Buying a twin stroller with car seats (my latest blog post)

During the baby days you may want to go with a lightweight frame stroller that can accommodate two infant car seats. Some of the best choices include the UPPAbaby Vista V2 Double and Joovy twinRoo+.

This model lets you turn the car seat carriers in the opposite direction or the same. It also has a large storage bin, which can be opened without removing the infant carriers. It also fits through the majority of doors.

Folding Ease

The UPPAbaby Vista V2 is a massive, stunning twin stroller that can carry two infant car seats with the correct adapters (car seat adapters are available separately). It glides and pushes easily, turning and spinning like a single-seat stroller. It comes with footrests that can be adjusted, leg and leg rests that are adjustable and a huge UPF 50+ canopy, peekaboo windows, and padded 5-point safety harnesses. It comes with a toddler seat, or add the RumbleSeat that is a bassinet like seat for babies and small double buggy children. The large storage basket is spacious enough for all your stuff and includes a handy place to store your phone or purse, as well as four cup holders.

But it's also difficult to fold, especially if you have one second hand double buggy on the handlebar, and another on the car seat of your child. And you'll need to disconnect the rear seat from the base in order to fold it down, a procedure that takes longer than other double strollers we've test. Thankfully, the company has changed the Vista to work with its new car seat adapters. The updated version (which will be available in April 2023) will work with both the original and updated adapters in both positions, and will fold with two of the adapters connected at once.

Another option for families with twins is the Joovy TwinRoo+, our most popular infant car seat twin stroller frame. It can be used with a variety of car seats, and both babies can be carried in infant carriers simultaneously. It is a favorite for parents who drive small vehicles. The clever design cuts down the overall length so that it can fit better into some trunks. The seats are comfortable and cushioned, and they can be reclined in a variety of positions by pressing the button. The buckles are among the simplest to secure and remove in our tests.

The only issue with 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 choice for families who wish to run and the durable design means that it won't wear as quickly as other tandems.

Wheel Suspension

The suspension of the wheels of a twin stroller that comes with car seats is a crucial feature since it can make it more comfortable for your kids. This is especially true when you are walking over bumps and rough terrain. Strollers with suspension generally have larger wheels and more shocks. The more comfortable a stroller rides and the more shocks it has.

In addition to being easy to steer, a good wheel suspension also makes a twin stroller that has car seats more durable. It will allow it to last longer, which is ideal if you plan on using it for multiple children or a long period of time.

One of the best twin strollers with car seats for infants comes with an excellent suspension on the wheels and is a model that's been around long enough: the Baby Trend Snap-N-Go Double. It has many features that parents love, like two cup holders, a parent console with cup holder, and a huge storage basket. It also comes with a height-adjustable handle, which can be helpful for taller parents.

Another popular choice for twins who have infant car seats is the Chicco BravoFor2. It is a sit-and- stand stroller that can be used as a twin buggy stroller or with a single infant seat in the front. It is a very spacious stroller and folds up to a compact size. It also has some nice touches that we like for example, magnetic straps for the crotch that can be opened and closed by using just one hand.

It also comes with a 5-point harness, which is crucial as it will keep your children safe in the event of an accident. This feature isn't always found on strollers, but is a must for families with toddlers or infants.

Another top choice for twin strollers with car seats is the Contours Options Elite V2. It has all the features we love, including the ability to reversibly seat and recline one hand as well as padding that compresses on both seats, adjustable legs rests, zippered extension on both canopies, and extra-large storage. It also has a height-adjustable handle and a new seat design to allow for easier reversing of seats while moving.

Canopy

A canopy will protect your children from the sun and rain. Some models come with additional features, like the ability to peek behind or adjust the handles. One of our top choices that we recommend, the BravoFor2 is equipped with an adjustable front seat that is adjustable at the waist and shoulders, making it simple for a single parent to take the kids both out. Its bench seat is designed to accommodate children who are at least 2 1/2 years old. old, so it's not the best choice for twins or younger siblings. This stroller is compact and comes with handles on both sides to help you transport it to your car.

Some parents prefer a double stroller that can be used side-by-side because it is less likely to result in sibling fights. These types of strollers also allow you to view both children at the same time which makes it easier for a parent to monitor and interact with them. The downside is that side-byside strollers are usually heavier and more long than single models.

If you are seeking a light and affordable option Baby Trend Double Snap-N'-Go is a highly-rated and affordable choice. It can be used to accommodate two infant car seats. The latest version allows them to be placed in any direction. The most recent version is more compact than the predecessor, but still weighs more and is larger than the Joovy TwinRoo+.

Jeep's Urban Glide 3 is our top-rated twin-jogger that parents enjoy jogging. This stroller can accommodate one car seat at a given time. It is also compatible with 23 different car seat brands using a click-in-adapter, even though it does not have an infant carrier integrated. It's a solid, well-made stroller that can hold large loads without straining, and we were impressed by the way the handles can be adjusted to suit your height.

If you have two children who are similar age, you might prefer a sit-and-stand model like the Joovy Twin Roo+. This stroller can fit a pair of infant car seats or a single toddler seat and comes with a standing platform for older children to stand on. It's more expensive than our budget-friendly stroller but the company behind it is a small, family-owned business with outstanding customer service.

Seating

If you intend to use car seats for twins then a stroller that can take them is necessary. Our top-scoring strollers work with the most popular car seat brands. The UPPAbaby Vista v2 double pushchair from birth stroller can accommodate two car seats. The Joovy Twin Roo+ can accommodate a single car seat and the bassinet. We prefer strollers compatible with multiple infant car seats since you can choose from a wide range of prices and not be locked to one brand.

You'll also want to consider whether you'd prefer a side by side or tandem stroller. A twin stroller with a side-byside arrangement is more traditional and easier to maneuver, especially in restricted spaces and over curbs. A tandem stroller may be unstable and require more space between the seats. The different seat heights could result in a fight between siblings.

We've discovered that there are plenty of stroller options for families with infant twins or children of similar in age. The Baby Trend Sit & Stand double stroller, for example is a highly-rated option that works with car seats. Parents can transport their babies in comfort from their car to the stroller.

The stroller's rear and front storage baskets are big as well. They're perfect for storing all your gear, including backpacks, diapers and other clothes. The front storage area has a designated compartment for phone and keys. The baskets are mesh-sided to prevent items from falling, so you don't have to rummage around for them.

Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double is an alternative that is affordable. It has the same degree of versatility to some of our award-winning strollers. Its seats can be transformed into two toddler seats or modified bassinets. They can also be used with two infant car seats. This makes it an excellent choice for twins, from birth until early childhood.
