Buying a Twin Stroller With Car Seats

When you are a baby you may decide to purchase a light frame stroller that accepts two infant car seats. The top choices include the UPPAbaby Vista V2 Double and Joovy twinRoo+.

This model allows the car seat carriers to be facing opposite directions or in the same direction and comes with a large storage bin that you can access without removing the infant carrier. It also fits through the majority of doors.

Folding is easy

The UPPAbaby Vista V2 is a huge, gorgeous twin pushchair stroller that carries two infant car seats with the proper adapters (car seat adapters are sold separately). It is easy to push and glide while turning and spinning as a single-seat stroller. It comes with adjustable legs and foot rests, a spacious UPF 50+ canopy with windows that peek out at the sky and padded five-point safety harnesses that are simple to unfasten and fasten. The toddler seat included can be utilized, or you can add the RumbleSeat which is a bassinet-like seat for infants as well as young children. The large storage basket is spacious enough for all your stuff and has a convenient spot to keep your phone or purse and four cup holders.

But it can also be difficult to fold, especially when you've got one hand on the handlebar and the other on the car seat of your child. And you'll need to disconnect the rear seat from the base to fold it up--a procedure that takes longer than other double strollers that we have test. The company has upgraded its Vista stroller to be compatible with the new car seat adapters. The new version--launched April 2023) will work with both the original and the updated adapters in both configurations, and it will even fold with two of the adapters at the same time.

The Joovy TwinRoo+ is our favorite twin stroller frame for infant car seats. It can be used with 23 different car seats, and both babies can be carried in their infant carriers at the same time. It is a favorite among parents who have small vehicles. The clever design minimizes the overall length so that it is able to fit into certain trunks. The seats are comfortable and padded and can be reclined to various positions by pressing a button. The buckles were among the most simple to secure and remove in our tests.

The only drawback of the TwinRoo+ is its bench seat, which is intended for an older child that is at least 2 1/2. It is not suitable for twins or siblings with similar ages. It's still a great choice for families who want to go jogging, and the sturdy structure means it won't wear as quickly as other tandems.

Wheel Suspension

The suspension of the wheels on a twin stroller that has car seats is a feature that makes it more comfortable for kids. This is particularly true if you are walking over bumps and rough terrain. Strollers with suspension typically come with larger wheels and shocks. The more shocks a stroller has, the smoother it will travel.

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

The Baby Trend Snap-N-Go Double is one of the best twin Stroller twin strollers for infants with car seats. It comes with a great wheel suspension, and it's an older model. It has many features that parents will love, including two cup holders, a parent console that has a 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 option for twins using infant car seats. It is a sit-and-stand stroller that can be used with one infant car seat in the front or as a twin stroller. It's a large stroller that folds down to a small size. It also has some pleasant features we like for example, magnetic crotch straps that can be closed and opened with just one hand.

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

The second top choice for twin strollers that have car seats is the Contours Options Elite V2. It has all of the great features we like such as reversible seats, one-hand reclining, compression padding on both seats, adjustable leg rests, zippered extensions on the canopy as well as 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 can shield your children from the sun and rain. Some models have additional features, like a peekaboo or adjustable handles. One of our top choices, the BravoFor2 has the front seat with an adjustable buckle that can be adjusted at the waist and around the shoulder. This makes it simple for one caregiver to take two kids out. Its bench seat is made to accommodate children who are at least 2 1/2 years old. older, so it's not the best option for twins or younger siblings. This stroller is small and comes with handles on both sides to help you take it to the car.

Some parents prefer a double stroller that can be used side-by-side as it is less likely to result in sibling fights. These strollers allow you to view both children at the same time, making it easy for parents to monitor and interact with them. On the flip side, side-byside models tend to be heavier and longer than single strollers.

If you are looking for a lightweight and affordable option, the Baby Trend Double Snap N-Go is a highly rated and budget-friendly option. It can accommodate two car seats for infants, and the newer version allows the seats to be positioned in any direction. We found the most recent model to be smaller than its predecessor, however it still weighs more and is longer than the Joovy TwinRoo+.

For parents who want to jog, our top-rated twin jogger is the Jeep-branded Urban Glide 3. This stroller can fit one car seat at a given time. It can also be used with 23 different car seat brands via an adapter that clicks in, even though it doesn't have an infant carrier included. It's a solid, well-made stroller that can hold large loads without straining. Also, we loved how the handles adjust to fit your height.

If you have two children of the same age you might want to consider an option that allows you to sit and stand 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, but it's made by a small, family-owned business with great customer service.

Seating

If you intend to use car seats for twins and a stroller that can take them is necessary. A majority of our top-scoring double strollers are compatible with car seat adapters, which makes them compatible with most popular brands. For example the UPPAbaby Vista v2 double works with two car seats and the Joovy Hauck Roadster Duo SLX - Twin Chair for Twins - Ultimate Comfort and Convenience Roo+ accommodates one car seat and a bassinet (sold separately). We prefer strollers that work with multiple infant car seats because you can choose from a wide range of prices and not be tied to one brand.

You should also consider whether you'd like a side-by-side or tandem stroller. A twin stroller that has a side-by-side arrangement is more traditional and easier to maneuver, especially in tight spaces and over curbs. A tandem stroller can be unstable and require more space between the seats. The different seat heights could also lead to a fight between siblings.

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

The stroller's front and rear storage baskets are big and spacious, too. They're perfect for storing everything you need, including backpacks, diaper bags, and extra clothes. The front storage area also has a compartment for your phone and keys. The baskets are sided with mesh to keep items from falling over, so you don't have to search around to find them.

Another option that is budget-friendly is the Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double stroller, which offers a similar versatility to some of our higher-end award winners. Its seats can be converted into two toddler seats, or modified bassinets. They can also be used with two infant car seats. This makes it an excellent option for twins from birth until early childhood.
