Buying a Twin Stroller With Car Seats

You might opt for a lightweight frame that can accommodate two car seats during the baby days. The top choices include the UPPAbaby Vista V2 Double and Joovy twinRoo+.

This model allows car seat carriers to be facing either in the opposite direction or the same way and comes with a large storage bin that you can access without removing the infant carrier. It can also 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 when equipped with the appropriate adapters (car-seat adapters are sold separately). It glides and pushes easily, turning and spinning like a single-seat stroller. It has adjustable leg and footrests 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 chair for infants and small children. The large storage basket offers plenty of space for all your belongings and features four cup holders, which is a place to keep your phone or purse.

But it's also awkward to fold, especially when you've got one hand on the handlebar, and another on the child's car seat. You'll also need to disconnect the rear seat from the base in order to fold it up, a process that is more time-consuming than other double strollers we tested. The company has updated its Vista stroller to work with their new car seat adapters. The latest version (launched in April 2023) is compatible with both the original adapters and the updated ones. It can be folded using two adapters that can be connected at once.

Another option for families with twins is the Joovy TwinRoo+, our favorite infant car seat twin stroller frame. It can be used with 23 different car seats, and twins can be carried in their infant carriers simultaneously. It is a favourite among parents who have small cars. The clever design cuts down the overall length to ensure that it can fit better into some trunks. The seats are comfortable and padded and can be reclined in multiple positions by pressing a button. The buckles were among the easiest to secure and remove in our tests.

The only drawback of the TwinRoo+ is its bench seat, which is made for a child of at or above 2 1/2. It is not suitable for twins and siblings with similar ages. It's still a great option for families that want to go jogging and the durable design means that it won't wear as quickly as other tandems.

Wheel Suspension

The suspension of the wheel of a twin stroller equipped with car seats is an important feature since it can make it more comfortable for your children. This is especially true if you're walking on bumps and rough terrain. Strollers with suspension generally have larger wheels and more shocks. The more smooth a stroller's ride the more shocks it comes with.

In addition to being easy to steer, a good wheel suspension also makes a twin stroller with car seats more durable. It will last longer and is ideal if you are planning to use it for a number of children or for a long period.

One of the top twin strollers that come with car seats for infants has excellent suspension for the wheels, and it's a model that's been around a while the Baby Trend Snap-N'Go double infant stroller. It comes with many features parents will love, including two cup holders, an integrated parent console with cup holder and a large storage bin. It also has a height-adjustable handle that is useful for taller parents.

Chicco BravoFor2 is another popular alternative for twins who have infant car seats. It is a sit and stand stroller that could be used as a twin stroller or with a single infant seat in front. It's a spacious stroller that folds to a compact size. It has some nice touches like magnetic crotch belts that can be opened or closed with one hand.

It also comes with a five-point safety harness that will keep your children secure in the case of an accident. This isn't always present on strollers, but it should be an essential feature for any family with infants or toddlers.

The Contours Options Elite V2 is another top choice for twin strollers that can accommodate carseats. It comes with all of the features we love such as reversible seats, one-hand recline, compression padding in both seats, adjustable leg rests, zippered extensions to both canopies and extra-large storage. It also comes with a height-adjustable handrail and a redesigned seat to allow for easier reversing of seats when you move.

Canopy

A good canopy keeps your children safe from sun or rain Some models have extra features like the peek-a-boo window or the adjustable handles. One of our top picks is the BravoFor2. It BravoFor2 features a front seat that can be buckled at the shoulder and waist--making it simple for a single parent to take the kids both out. The bench seat can only accommodate children who are at least 2 1/2, so it is not suitable for twins or smaller siblings. We liked that this stroller folds into a compact unit and comes with a handle on each side to help you carry it to the car.

Some parents might prefer a side-by-side double stroller because it's less susceptible to sibling squabbles. These strollers let parents be able to talk and observe both children simultaneously. The downside is that side-by-side strollers tend to be heavier and longer than single models.

If you are seeking a light and affordable alternative the Baby Trend Double Snap N-Go is a highly-rated and budget-friendly option. It accepts two car seats for infants, and the more recent version lets the seats be positioned in any direction. We found the most recent model to be smaller than its predecessor, but it still weighs a little more and is a bit larger than the Joovy TwinRoo+.

Jeep's Urban Glide 3 is our top-rated twin-jogger for parents who like to jog. This stroller accommodates a single car seat at a time--and even though it doesn't come with a built-in infant carrier it can be used with 23 different brands of car seats with an adapter that clicks in. This is a sturdy, well-built stroller that can carry heavy loads without strain. We also liked how the handles could be adjusted to suit your height.

If you have two children who are the same age, you might want to consider an option that lets you sit and stand, such as the Joovy Twin Roo+. This stroller can fit two infant car seats or a single toddler seat and offers a standing platform that allows older kids to stand on. It's a tad more expensive than our budget stroller but it's made by a small family-owned company with excellent customer service.

Seating

If you intend to use car seats for twins, then a stroller which will accept them is crucial. Many of our top-scoring double strollers are compatible with car seat adapters, making them compatible with most popular brands. The UPPAbaby Vista v2 Double stroller can fit two car seats. The Joovy Twin Roo+ can accommodate one car seat, as well as a bassinet. We recommend strollers that are compatible with multiple infant car seats due to the fact that you can choose from a wide range of prices and not be shackled into a single brand.

You should also consider whether you'd prefer a side-by-side or tandem stroller. A twin stroller with a side-by-side arrangement is more traditional and easy to maneuver, particularly in restricted spaces and over curbs. A tandem stroller, on the other hand, can feel more unstable and requires more room between the seats. The different seat heights could result in a fight between siblings.

Fortunately, we've found that there are numerous stroller options to suit families with twins in the infant stage or children of the same age. For instance the Baby Trend Sit and Stand 2.0 double stroller for twins stroller is highly rated that works with car seats (the Secure-Lift 35 as well as the EZ Lift 35 Plus). Parents can transfer their children from the vehicle to the double stroller in comfort.

The stroller's rear and front storage baskets are spacious as well. These baskets are great to store all of your diaper bags, extra clothing, and backpacks. Plus, the front storage area has a designated compartment for keys and phone. The baskets are equipped with mesh sides to stop items from falling out, so you don't need to look around for them.

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