Buying a Twin Stroller With Car Seats

When you are a baby you may want to use a light frame stroller that is compatible with two infant car seats. The best double buggy options include the UPPAbaby Vista V2 Double and Joovy twinRoo+.

This model lets you rotate the car seat in either the opposite direction or the same. It also comes with an ample storage bin which can be opened without removing the infant carriers. It is also able to fit through the majority of doors.

Ease of folding

The UPPAbaby Vista V2 is a big beautiful twin stroller. It can hold two infant car seats if equipped with the appropriate adapters (car-seat adapters are available separately). It glides and pushes easily with a smooth, smooth spin similar to a single-seat stroller. It comes with an adjustable leg and foot rests, a spacious UPF 50+ canopy with windows that peek out and padded five-point safety harnesses that are easy to secure and remove. The included toddler seat can be used, or you could add the RumbleSeat which is a bassinet like seat for infants and young children. The large storage basket provides plenty of space for all your belongings and features four cup holders, which is a place to store your phone or purse.

It can be a challenge to fold, particularly when you hold the handlebar with one hand while holding the child's seat in the second. It's also necessary to disconnect the rear seat from the base when you want to fold it up--a process that takes longer than other double strollers that we have tested. The company has updated its Vista stroller to work with the new car seat adapters. The new version (launched in April 2023) is compatible with the original adapters and the new ones. It can also be folded with two adapters that can be connected at once.

The Joovy TwinRoo+ is our preferred twin stroller frame that fits infant car seats. It can be used with a variety of car seats, and both babies can be sat in their infant carriers at the same time. It's a long-time favorite of parents driving smaller cars and its clever design cuts down the overall length so that it fits better in some compact trunks. The seats are comfortable and cushioned, and they can be reclined in multiple positions by pressing a button. The buckles are among the easiest to fasten and unfasten in our tests.

The only issue with the TwinRoo+ is its bench seat, which is designed for a child who is at least 2 1/2. It is not suited for twins or siblings with similar age. It's still a great choice for families who want to run, and its tough construction means that the frame will not wear out as quickly as other tandems we've tested.

Wheel Suspension

The suspension of the wheel on a twin stroller that has car seats makes it more comfortable for kids. This is particularly true if you are walking over bumps and rough terrain. Strollers with suspension have larger wheels, and they typically have more shocks than those without. The more shocks a stroller comes with, the smoother it will travel.

A twin stroller that has a car seat that is easy to steer will also be more durable. It will make it last longer and is ideal if you are planning to use it for multiple children or for a long period.

The Baby Trend Snap-N Go double pushchair from birth is among the best twin Stroller twin strollers for infants with car seats. It comes with a great wheel suspension, and it's an old model. It comes with many features parents will love, including two cup holders, a parent console that has a cup holder, and a large storage basket. It also has a handle that can be adjusted to height, which can be helpful for taller parents.

Chicco BravoFor2 is another popular option for twins with infant car seats. This is a sit and stand double stroller-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 and folds up to a small size. It also has some nice features that we love such as magnetic crotch straps that can be opened and closed by using just one hand.

It also comes with a five-point safety harness that will keep your children safe in the case of an accident. This is something that isn't always found on strollers but should be an essential feature for families with infants or toddlers.

The second top choice for twin strollers with car seats is the Contours Options Elite V2. It comes with all the great features we like such as reversible seats, one-hand reclining, compressing padding in both seats, adjustable leg rests, zip-up extensions on the canopy as well as extra-large storage. It also comes with a height-adjustable handrail and a redesigned seat to make it easier to reverse seats on the move.

Canopy

A good canopy keeps your children shielded from the sun or rain, and a few models include extra features, such as the peek-a-boo window or the adjustable handles. One of our top picks is the BravoFor2 includes a front seat with an adjustable buckle that can be adjusted at the waist and shoulder. This makes it possible for a single parent to take two kids out. Its bench seat can only accommodate children of at least 2 1/2 years old, so it is not suitable for twins or smaller siblings. However, we loved that this stroller folds into a compact size and has handles on both sides to help roll it up to the car.

Some parents might prefer a side-by-side double stroller because it's less prone to squabbles between siblings. These kinds of strollers allow you to see both children at once which makes it easier for parents to monitor and interact with them. The drawback is that side-by-side strollers are generally heavier and longer than single models.

If you're looking for a light option, our budget choice Baby Trend Double Snap-N'-Go is a reasonable and highly rated option. It accepts two infant car seats, and the newer version allows the seats to face either way. We found the most recent model to be smaller than its predecessor, but it still weighs more and is a bit longer than the Joovy TwinRoo+.

Parents who want to run the twin jogger that we recommend as our top pick is the Jeep-branded Urban Glide 3. This stroller can hold one car seat at a time, and even though it doesn't have a built-in infant carrier It can be used with 23 different brands of car seats with an adapter that clicks in. It's a sturdy and well-constructed stroller that can hold large loads without straining. And we were impressed by the way the handles adjust to fit your height.

If you have two children who are the same age, you might want to consider an option that allows you to sit and stand with ease, such as the Joovy lightweight twin stroller Roo+. This stroller can accommodate the infant car seats or a single toddler seat and has a standing platform for older kids to stand on. It's more expensive than our budget-friendly stroller, but the company that makes it is a small family company with excellent customer service.

Seating

If you are planning to use car seats for twin infants, then a stroller which can take them is necessary. Many of our top-scoring double strollers are compatible with car seat adapters, making them compatible with the most popular brands. The UPPAbaby Vista v2 Double stroller can fit two car seats. The Joovy Twin Roo+ can accommodate a single and double stroller car seat as well as the bassinet. We prefer strollers that work with a variety of infant car seat brands because it allows you to shop a wider range of prices without being tied to the same brand.

You'll need to decide whether you prefer a tandem or side-byside stroller. A twin stroller that is side-by-side offers a more traditional seating configuration and is easier to maneuver -- particularly in restricted spaces or when crossing curbs. A tandem stroller, on the other hand, can feel more unstable and requires more space between the seats. Additionally, the various seat heights can lead to sibling rivalries, so we suggest you use a tandem stroller only when your kids are close in age.

Fortunately, we've found there are numerous stroller options for families with twins in the infant stage or children who are similar in age. For instance, the Baby Trend Sit and Stand 2.0 double stroller is a highly-rated option that's compatible with car seats (the Secure-Lift 35 and EZ-Lift 35 Plus). Parents can carry their children comfortably from their car to the stroller.

The rear and front baskets of the stroller are large. They're perfect for storing everything you need including backpacks, diapers, and extra clothes. The front storage has a dedicated compartment for your phone and keys. The baskets are sided with mesh to stop items from falling over, so you don't have to rummage for them.

Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double is another option that is budget-friendly. It offers a similar level of versatility as some of our award-winning strollers. The seats are compatible with two infant car seat carriers and convert to two bassinets for toddlers or modified ones that can face either direction. This makes it a great option for twins starting from birth to early childhood.
