Double Stroller With Car Seat Compatability
Parents with twins and other multiples may require a double stroller that is able to hold two infant car seats at the same time. The TwinRoo+ is an easy-to-use frame stroller that can hold 23 different car seat models.
The car also comes with a large storage basket and cup holders for parents and convertible seats that offer the best legroom of its class. There are 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 can be used with most infant car seat carriers. It has large storage baskets and a parent tray with two cup holders. The stroller is light and folds easily for storage or transport. It's one of the most user-friendly strollers and is very maneuverable for a side-byside design. It did not perform well in our jog test and was unable to handle more steeper curbs. The swivel wheels on front aren't able to grip obstacles.
This stroller can be used with all major brands of infant car seats, and adapters are easy to install. The stroller can only fit one infant car seat at a time Parents with twins will have to find another option to use their infant car seats simultaneously. The UPPAbaby Vista v2 Double and Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double are top scoring options that work with two infant car seats simultaneously.
While the Baby Trend is easy to use and has a nice basket it falls short in our ride comfort metric. The stroller isn't equipped with shocks to absorb the vibrations and bumps of the road, which can be a challenge for small passengers. Additionally, the absence of a reclined seat, children will feel every bump in the road. This might not be an issue as the passengers age, but it's an important thing to consider if your kids are young toddlers or infants.
It's a relatively lightweight frame stroller, weighing less than 40 pounds. However, it is heavy when loaded with passengers and cargo. The absence of a lock for jogging makes it difficult to jog, and it had a hard time in navigating gravel, grass and sidewalks in our tests. The BOB Revolution is a lighter choice for jogging, weighing in at 41 lbs. It can still be a bit challenging to lift and carry, but it has a designated handle to help you do this. The jog strollers benefit from having larger wheels to provide more off-road performance. They also have a stronger chassis and are constructed of durable materials that can endure long-term use.
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 with adjustable leg rests, and zippered extensions on both canopies. It also includes an adult cupholder. It also has some great new features, such as the height-adjustable handle and quilted seat. It also has seven different seating options and the difficult-to-find double rear facing position that allows kids to see each their friends while keeping an eye on mom and dad.
This stroller's compatibility with multiple infant car seats is one of its most appealing features. It provides families with more options and keeps them from being tied to a single brand of stroller that is compatible with a baby car seats. The Options Elite is compatible with Graco infant car seats as well as Britax double car seats. It also accepts the UPPAbaby Mesa or Baby Jogger City Select double car seats. It even has a second adapter for those who have twins, or wish to use two infant car seats.
It is not a side by side stroller so it feels like it's a single stroller. It is able to be used in a variety of aisles and doorways. It's not as maneuverable as a jogging stroller however it's still a great option for shopping trips and road excursions. It weighs a bit heavier than other double stroller s, however it's not too heavy for petite women to carry and maneuver.
The seats are comfy for kids and the storage basket is of a decent size. The canopy is huge as well, and it can be removed to provide an extra shade. However, it doesn't provide ample storage space for the necessities of parents and some families may find to be inconvenient.
The stroller comes with an electronic foot brake, a safety harness and five point harness for each child. The front wheels can be locked for added security and the handles are ergonomically designed. It's easy to fold and can stand up when folded. It's not folded with just one hand, like other strollers however, it's easy to fold after a few hours of practice.
The Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double
The Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double is a great budget-friendly favorite that will grow with your family, offering car seat compatibility and reversible seating within a sleek modern stroller frame. This stroller has easy-to-use everyday features as well as a simple, one-handed fold, with a self-stand which is remarkable for a less expensive model. It does have an a bit more substantial feel than a lot of the competition and smaller wheels that struggle with pushing off-road, or in tight corners and narrow doors.
This stroller can be used with two infant car seats or toddler seats (sold separately) - no adapters needed. Adding a second seat expands the frame of the stroller in a matter of minutes without tools or other parts, and can be used in a variety of configurations in the USA to accommodate toddler and infant seating at different heights, either in parent-facing or forward-facing modes. The second seat can be used to secure baby in a comfortable position in infant mode or for older children in stroller mode. It comes with three reclining positions and a footrest that is adjustable in five positions.
The huge, large basket as well as the front-facing and back-accessible seat pocket enhance the functionality of this stroller. Moreover, the cushioned, contoured seat ensures maximum comfort for the passengers. A retractable canopy shields children from the sun's rays and a peek-a-boo window allows parents to keep an eye on their children.
Adding double buggy creates a tandem for siblings to ride in tandem, 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 can be folded with the toddler seat to allow easy access to storage space.
Most reviewers are impressed with how easily the Pivot Xpand stroller can be extended to include an additional seat. Some reviewers have mentioned that attaching an infant car seat to the integrated mounts can be a challenge, however attaching the second toddler's seat is much easier and quicker. Evenflo does have an option to video chat with customers to ask questions and get assistance in installing car seats, which is a nice addition. The only other significant drawback for this stroller is its relatively short warranty.
The Jeep Bravo For 2
The Bravo For 2 is an excellent stroller that is ideal for siblings with similar ages. It is easy-to-assemble straight out of the package and, unlike other sit-and stand options it is relatively light at under 23 pounds. The seats each have a recline that can be adjusted to allow your infant or toddler to snooze and even have a footrest for those who need it. The padding on the handle bar is in the ideal position for children older than 5 years old to hold when standing, even while wearing mittens. Many parents have shared that this feature alone makes it more secure than the majority of its rivals.
This stroller comes with a cushioned back seat that can hold children up to two years old. This allows you to keep your child rear-facing for longer, which is a big win for parents who follow the #TurnAfter2 movement that encourages toddlers and babies to be rear-facing until they reach the age of two years old. This seat is simple to buckle and has the same great five-point harness as the front seat.
Another benefit of the Bravo For 2 is that it will accept an Chicco KeyFit and Fit2 car seat in the front. It is easy to connect your infant's carrier by lowering the front seat and then snapping it in. This feature makes it one the most versatile double strollers available. It also helps to avoid purchasing a stroller which is only used once and ends up in your garage or donated to a second-hand shop.
The only issue with this stroller is that it does not include a tray for parents or cup holders, and the storage space is somewhat restricted. It is an excellent choice for families with just one child who will be walking for the entire duration of their stroll with younger siblings in a car seat up in front. It's also a great option for traveling as it can fold up into a compact size that can be gate-checked on a plane or stow away in your trunk.
