How Easy Is It to Push and Fold a Double Stroller?

Whether you're taking your toddler for the streets or jogging with your twins, the right double stroller makes it easier for everyone to move around. Finding a double stroller which folds easily and is easy to push is essential.

Our Lab experts recommend side-by-side models that have equal recline and ample storage space, as well as car adapters for infants' seats.

Seating

When looking for a double stroller, the seating options are important. You may want to consider a tandem stroller that allows one child to stand while the other sits, or a side by side option that allows your children to sit together.

Seating configurations can also affect your comfort while you're walking on busy sidewalks and streets. Look for strollers pushchair with car seat reclining seats, reclined footrests and large canopy that provides shade for Pram for newborn both of the passengers. Beware of hanging bags on the handlebars because they can alter the stroller's center of gravity and increase tipping.

Double strollers that are of good quality are also equipped with storage compartments for your essentials. Look for storage compartments on the seat backs or beneath the seats to keep toys, snacks and other necessities handy. You can also use organizer bags and consoles for parents affixed to the handles of the car to keep things in your hand on walks or outings.

A side-by-side stroller is the best option for parents with children of similar age. They are generally more stable than stacking types and offer better views for both passengers. Some options also accept two car seats for infants, allowing you to move your sleepy children from the car to the stroller and not wake them up.

Parents with older children who aren't afraid to sit separately or who enjoy a bit of independence might like a model that lets an older child to climb onto the front of the stroller and ride along. This type of double stroller usually isn't newborn-compatible and might require more maintenance as the years go by, however it can be a great alternative for families who want the versatility of an individual stroller that converts to a double-kid version.

The most effective double strollers are robust and easy to maneuver even in a rough terrain or tight spaces. They are also light compact, foldable and foldable for easy storage in your trunk or garage. This makes them easy to transport on trips. They are made to last and meet the safety guidelines of the American Academy of Pediatricians (AAP).

Canopy

A canopy protects both the passengers from direct sun and some models even have a an apron that protects children's faces. Shades that are massive like the BOB Revolution Flex 3.0 Duallie and the UPPAbaby Vista V2 Double received our top scores for their canopy options. Both offer ample coverage and cover children from head to knee, whereas inline options tend to skimp on shade or provide only a single canopy that covers one seat, which can be problematic for siblings that want different levels of protection.

A good canopy should also be able to slide easily onto the stroller, and a lot of our top-rated models do just that. However, make sure you check the dimensions of the model prior to making a purchase, as some canopy might require additional space in the basket for full extension and to prevent hitting the handles when they're folded.

Some parents prefer double pram pushchair strollers that come with a bassinet or car seat adapters to give them more options in the future. For instance, the UPPAbaby Vist v2 Double features a toddler seat and an added RumbleSeat which makes it a perfect choice for families with twins or young children who may require the transport of more than two kids at the same time. This versatile stroller offers an unique sit-and-stand configuration for older children who prefer riding alone.

Parent consoles and organizer bags can also help your stroller be more efficient. They keep the essentials in your reach. They're particularly useful for strollers that don't get used often and when you'll need to keep snacks and toys away from prying hands. Some of these accessories are connected with a snap or strap that makes it simple to remove them when ready for the stroller to be used again.

If you are looking for a double stroller that can be transformed into a toddler stroller, with an incline board or bench seat, then this is the stroller for you. Both the Graco travel pushchair System RoomFor2 and UPPAbaby's Vista v2 Duallie feature a bassinet that is compatible with car seats, a toddler's seat as well as a RumbleSeat. Both can expand into a triple stroller through the addition of a running board which is perfect for families that have an active child who is on the move.

Wheels

The type of wheels on the stroller makes a big difference in how it is simple or difficult to push. In general, bigger wheels are easier to maneuver and will be able to tackle an array of terrain. The material used to make the wheels also affects how they are easy or difficult to push. Rubber wheels, for instance are generally more durable and can withstand rougher surfaces than plastic wheels.

Stroller wheels come in different styles, sizes, and materials to suit a variety of environments and needs. For instance, swivel wheels aid in maneuvering narrow spaces and make tight turns. Fixed-wheels are more stable and better for smooth surfaces. If you plan to use your stroller on uneven terrain or off-road air-filled tires are more suitable than standard rubber tires. These tires have a similar design to bicycle tires and can absorb shocks, which makes for an easier ride.

Double strollers that are side by side are wider than tandem strollers and can be more difficult to navigate through narrow doors or crowded aisles. They offer your children the same amount of space to sit down and stretch their legs. They're also generally more maneuverable and easy to steer than tandem strollers.

If you want to use your stroller for running or biking consider double joggers that have all-terrain or jogging tires. They are larger, more robust and feature sealed ball bearings that provide a smoother ride over uneven surfaces. Some models, like the Baby Jogger City Mini GT2 Double Stroller are compatible with car seat which allows you to jog while your children are secured in their car seats.

Other all-terrain/jogging doubles, like the Valco Baby Tri Mode Duo X can accommodate a second seat in front, but they're generally too bulky to be considered umbrella doubles. In our tests the restraint buckles on this model were among the most difficult to secure, which could be a problem when trying to get two kids into the stroller at once. This stroller is expensive with a price that is hundreds higher than our top single-to-tandem option, but it does come with top-quality materials and an excellent resale value.

Storage

A quality double stroller will have enough storage space to accommodate the children as well as the parents. A lack of storage can make it difficult for parents to go on for errands and to bring all the gear they need for a family outing. In our Lab tests the UPPAbaby V2 double was a good score on this metric. It comes with a big, easy-to-access basket which can hold up 30 lbs.

Strollers that have multiple compartments and pockets can help families organize small items like keys, wallets and phones. A parent console or organizer bag that can be attached to the handlebars of the stroller can be a handy option for parents to store their personal belongings while outing with the children.

In addition to a large basket the UPPAbaby Vista comes with two infant car seats (though not both bassinets), and it has a telescoping handlebar and brakes that are easy to use. It also has the biggest weight capacity in our line-up and an adjustable fold that will fit most standard door frames.

On the other hand our test subjects found that the wagon-style Joovy Caboose Ultralight Graphite has an adjustable handlebar that is ideal for parents of various heights. The wagon features two folding UV screens to provide complete sun protection and its cup holders and snack tray can hold different bottles for children and snacks.

The biggest challenge with any stroller is folding it and bringing it back in shape after use. This is especially the case if you have a child or toddler with you. It's therefore important to choose one that folds quickly and effortlessly. Both the UPPAbaby Vista v2 stroller and Evenflo Pivot Xpand have a single-handed, simple-to-use mechanism that allows parents to fold their strollers quickly and efficiently, regardless of the configuration they're using.

Double strollers might seem like an investment that is costly however, parents who intend to use it for many years will be paying more than they would for single strollers. It's also worth determining if the stroller is able to be broken down into parts for storage and transport this is a vital consideration if you have limited living or vehicle space.
