Best Twin Stroller For Newborns

If you're expecting twins or have two children that are close in age, a double stroller is essential. The best double strollers offer different ways to ride your children including side by side seating and an attachment for a board.

Lauren Ro, a writer and strategist who writes for the blog, loves is the Bugaboo Donkey 5 Mono, that is a perfect fit as your family grows. It can hold two infant car seats as well a toddler car seat which makes it an ideal option for twins starting at birth.

Bugaboo Donkey

This is the top double stroller for families searching for a stylish, side-byside double stroller. It's a bit bigger than other Bugaboo strollers, but it feels solid and built to last. It has a movable handlebar that extends and retracts easily. It also has a long reach, so it's easy for my husband of 6'1 to push, even when fully loaded.

Seats are large and can be set up in a way that one child is in front of another or so that the children are facing each one. The seats can recline independently from each other. The canopies are large and cover both seat fabrics if desired. However, they don't provide enough ventilation, which makes them appear like a small oven on hot days. They also don't have a peek-aboo window that allows children to peek in.

One of the most distinctive features of this stroller is its capacity to grow with your family from the single seat (Mono mode) all the way to a double car seat stroller side-by-side stroller. This is the only double stroller convertible to do this. It can also be used with a second bassinet or car seat for newborns.

It is easy to maneuver on smooth surfaces and is able to handle steps and slopes well. It isn't easy to maneuver through crowded eateries and shops. It can be a bit difficult to fold the seat, especially if it is attached. It's still small and can fit through most doors.

In mono mode, there's an storage bin located next to the front seats. This is useful for groceries and other items. The main storage basket beneath the seats is large and can hold up to 100 lbs. This is more than any stroller on our list!

Uppababy Vista v2

This stroller is one of the best twin strollers for newborns. It is compatible with a variety of bassinets and infant car seats (adapters are sold separately) and can be used as a double stroller right out of the box. It can even accommodate two bassinets or infant car seats at the same time when you purchase the Vista Upper and Lower adapters.

Compared to the original Vista, the V2 has made a few changes to make it even better. The toddler seat has been raised by about half an inch, the footrest is bigger and the canopy comes with an extra fabric extension that zips out. The harness has also been modernized since it doesn't need to be re-threaded. This makes it easier to adjust.

The stroller is fairly large wheels (8 inches in front and 11.5 inches in the back) with a sturdy suspension, which means it is able to easily navigate all kinds of terrain. The rubber wheels on the front are great to navigate through rocks and gravel and the tread on the rear wheels is better for grassy hills or sidewalks.

Another excellent feature is the capability to connect a child's bike to the front of the stroller, which can be a handy option for those who aren't keen on using an infant car seat or Rumbleseat. If you have a child who is old enough to stand and walk, the Vista stroller can fit a third child with its piggyback board accessory.

Vista is a simple device to use. Vista is easy to use and install. It does take some time to get rid of the protective packaging. The instructions are easy to follow, and there's also a YouTube video should you require further assistance.

Thule Urban Glide 3

The Thule Urban Glide 3 stroller is the most recent version of this renowned all terrain stroller. It's designed to appeal to families who are looking for style, sustainability and adventure. It features exciting improvements like a built-in foot rest and an updated reclining seat, which promises unmatched comfort for children during long walks and jogs. Its sleek and agile design is also enhanced to allow for better maneuverability.

It's extremely light, making it easy to push and quick to accelerate once you're on the road. Its suspension handles abrupt changes in surface (like grass to pavement) effortlessly, and the large wheels offer ample traction even on the roughest of terrain. It can easily climb over kerbs and turn tight spaces like city streets. It's easy to navigate narrow sidewalks and overcrowded parks.

The brand new Urban Glide 3 is a superior jogger that offers parents an abundance of comfort and ease. It has a large canopy that offers excellent sun protection and a convenient peekaboo window, an extremely high-quality harness system and a handbrake that is integrated with a a perfectly in-tuned lever. It also has ideal storage, including in-seat storage pockets as well as a large cargo basket that can hold up to 15 pounds, with a zip-top cover.

This Thule Jogger includes a bassinet that is suitable for strolling infants, and a double buggy from birth version that can accommodate two children.

Cortina Together

For the growing family, Cortina Together offers parents flexible seating options that let them adjust to the individual needs of each child and preferences. The two seats in the tandem double stroller stroller feature canopies that are reclining and backrests that are completely independent. They're also designed to take one of Chicco's top-rated KeyFit or KeyFit 30 infant car seats in the front and rear seat (car seat sold separately) using the exclusive click-in attachment without the need for additional bars and straps, like many competing models require.

A large, zipper-access basket at the rear provides ample storage space for the gear. The handle is cushioned to allow for dad or mom. The tandem double stroller's wheels and suspension offer a smooth ride across all terrains and the 1-touch linked rear brakes with toe-tap activation make stopping easy.

In our Strollers & Multiples laboratory tests, Cortina Together received high marks for ease of usage. This metric is based upon the ease with which it is to fold and set up the stroller. It also reflects the ease with which it is for you to open and close the snack trays, engage and disengage brakes, and then lift the stroller when folded and then carry it like an actual trunk.

There are some downsides to this model, however. First, it's heavy. It weighs 36.6 pounds when fully loaded and puts it closer to the beast end of our metric. It also has a limited view when a car seat is placed in the back. In addition the front tray release can be difficult to operate, particularly when used for a long time. However, despite these issues, we consider this to be a great stroller for your family.

Jeep Double Stroller

Jeep Destination Ultralight Side x Side Double Stroller - A lightweight, budget-friendly stroller that is ideal for families with two children. Its front swivel lock wheels rotate to maneuver on flat surfaces and lock for stability on bumpy ones, making it easy to go where you want to go. It has an umbrella that folds compactly and can be closed in just a few seconds. It also stands upright to make transporting it simpler. Its lightweight aluminum frame, foam handle and carrying strap makes it one of the most easy double strollers to lift during our tests.

This stroller with a side-by-side design offers seating that reclines independently and foot rests for the best comfort for both children. Its large canopy can provide UPF 50 sun protection. It also comes with a peekaboo view window for easy monitoring. We would like to see the canopy vented for more airflow. We also didn't love that the cup holder is very high on the frame, meaning you'll need to bend down to reach it.

In our test of tipping, the Jeep fell over with only 39 degrees of angle, which is above average for a double stroller. It's a bit heavier, but offers more storage for the price. The handles and seats are also well-padded.

The stroller is a versatile model with three modes: wagon (just for stuff), the jogger (with two 5-point safety harnesses for kids) and car seat mode. It can fit one car seat for infants however, pediatricians recommend waiting until your child is 6 months old before jogging with them. They should also be 1 year old before taking them on rough terrain. It is available in black and comes with a limited warranty. Jenni Gritters has been a journalist and parent for more than a decade.
