Buying a Small Double Stroller

A double stroller is an important investment, and one you'll use for years. You must make the right choice.

Our testers were looking for strollers that had excellent flexibility and a smooth ride across all terrains. They also examined whether the models were easy-to-fold and maneuver.

Size

There are a variety of double strollers available on the market, from side-by-side to tandem (single-file seating) and wagons. The category has come a long way from the behemoth vintage 1980s models that a few older generations might have recalled. Nowadays they're sleek and offer various customization options to make traveling with kids more enjoyable for everyone.

For parents with infants or toddlers, a double stroller that includes a car seats is a great option to transport them from point A to point B. Some of the most sophisticated strollers available feature frames that can accommodate two infant car seats or convertible toddler seats allowing them to be used from birth until children reach kindergarten age. These are usually more expensive than a double stroller frame but they come with an integrated car seat system as well as a large undercarriage basket.

Parents who don't have multiple children might want a simple, less-expensive single-to-double stroller. These strollers are generally lighter in weight, and a few moms have shared with us that they're still using their old stroller even after their children have outgrew it.

Another excellent feature of a few of the tiniest double strollers we've tried is their compact fold. They can fit in spaces that larger strollers can't and are often easier to maneuver once folded.

Finally, most of the compact double strollers we've tested have a large sunshade, but the coverage varies from nothing to a cocoon covering. For budget-conscious families you should look into second-hand strollers on websites like Facebook Marketplace to see if there's a stroller that will meet your family's needs--just be certain to check any used stroller for signs of wear and tear prior to committing to buying one.

Weight

Parents should think about their budget and if the stroller will fit into the family's lifestyle before shopping for a double small stroller. A stroller that is lightweight double stroller is one example. It may not have enough storage space to accommodate bulky bags or other gear. It might not have a big canopy, or other features to make it easier to use on long journeys.

The most reliable double strollers are durable and easy to maneuver that helps ensure that the children remain comfortable in their seats and do not move around when they ride. In our tests of comfort we award higher marks to strollers that have adjustable seatbacks and leg rests with padding. The top double strollers offer reclining seating positions that let kids unwind during long trips.

Strollers that can be used for a variety of purposes are more popular than ever because of their innovative designs and clever features. Some of the best strollers can accommodate multiple car seats and offer an array of seating options from birth to preschool. Some are lightweight enough for jogging or travel.

When choosing a small double-stroller it is essential to determine if the stroller can fit through narrow doorways and other spaces. The older models of tandem strollers and side-byside strollers are usually too wide to fit through many doors. The most effective small double strollers, however, are usually narrower than traditional models and can be easily pushed into most standard doorways easily.

Another thing to consider is whether you need an additional feature on your stroller such as a cup holder or snack tray. These are useful for longer excursions, but they add to the total weight and cost of the double stroller.

Folding

A compact double stroller can fold compactly, fitting easily into tight spaces and making it easy to store. A lightweight design makes it easy to carry and maneuver.

Before you decide on a compact double stroller take note of where you'll use it and how often. These questions will help you determine which features are most important. For instance, if you plan to use the stroller for running, then you will want to look for one with a smooth suspension that will glide over rough and uneven terrain.

Be aware of the age and temperament of your children as well. If they are of the same age and have similar temperaments, a tandem stroller might be the best option. However, if they are at different stages of development, then a tandem model may be more suitable for your needs.

A double stroller may be costly, but it's an investment that will pay off in the long run. Investing in a quality model that meets your family's needs will make travelling with kids easier, and it will also provide years of convenience for you and your children.

If you have limited storage space, consider a compact double stroller that can fit both infant car seats as well as toddlers. Evenflo Pivot Xplore Wagon can accommodate twins and is a great option for families with two children. It has two canopy options, a storage bin that is attached, and an infant tray with cup holders. This budget-friendly, lightweight stroller folds easily and can be carried with only one hand. It is important to know that you must remove the second seat from the majority of double modular strollers when folding.

Maneuverability

The best small double strollers are easy to maneuver and have smooth, supple wheels that glide across all types of surfaces. These strollers also feature comfortable, reclining seats as well as ample storage space for your children's gear. Additionally they can accommodate car seat carriers as well as infant toddler seats. These features make them a great choice for families who want one stroller that can expand with their family.

Alli Cavasino is a certified child safety technician and a travel gear expert who advises parents on strollers and other travel gear. She suggests selecting a light, easy-to-push model. She warns that heavy strollers can cause frame fatigue and injuries. If your stroller is heavy and difficult for you to push, add an extra ride-along option or decrease the number of children.

Some of the double strollers that we tested can accommodate multiple infant car seats. The UPPAbaby Vista v2 double, for instance, can hold two toddler or infant seats at the same time and can be converted to three seats with the RumbleSeat add-on. It also features a chic inline design, with foam-filled tires that won't go flat and a telescoping handlebar that can be adjusted. Its seat buckles are one of the easiest to secure and remove, and its generous UPF 50+ sunshades come with window-like windows.

Other models are available with different seating configurations. They can be used for twins or triplets, as well as an older child and an infant or an infant riding the scooter (sold separately). These models also come with brakes that are easy to use and the compact fold that fits into the majority of trunks. Some are light enough to transport up and down the stairs. Most require little assembly. The Joovy Caboose, however, requires some tools and was the most difficult to build during our tests.

Safety

The best double strollers are equipped with numerous safety features. They come with adjustable handlebars that give you an ergonomic grip, as well as a large base to ensure it won't fall over when children jump out of their seats. They also have generous canopies that protect both kids even the rain. Alli Cavasino is a certified child safety technician. She says they're simple to use. "Look for an easy one- or two-step fold that's easily carried, and that has a clear, easy where to place the straps," she advises.

The narrowest compact double strollers fit through doorways with ease--a major benefit if you have an incredibly small car or a tiny living space. The smallest models also weigh less than normal double strollers. This makes them easier to carry from one place to the next.

Parents who have kids older than their age could consider the side-by-side stroller, such as our top pick, the Joovy Kooper X2, which has two child seats which can be adjusted for recline and width separately. In our tests, we found the seats to be very comfortable and the recline to be simple and easy with just a single lever on each seat. It also has an enormous storage basket, a parking brake that's one-step (to reduce fatigue in the hands while stopping) and a few of our most popular harnesses.

If your children are of different ages, a sit-and- stand stroller, like our top choice, the UPPAbaby v2 double, could be an ideal choice. It can accommodate two infant car seats and comes with a pair of modified seats that act as bassinets for older children. They can also be modified to accommodate a riding board for a sibling who is even older.
