Buying a Small Double Stroller

A double stroller is a significant purchase, and it's one you'll be using for years. You should choose wisely.

Our testers looked at strollers that offer great flexibility and smooth rides on any terrain. They also checked if the models were easy-to-fold and maneuver.

Size

There are many styles of double strollers, including side-by-side, tandem (single-file) and wagons. The category has changed from the classic 1980s designs that older millennials might remember. These days, they're sleek and come with a range of options to make traveling with kids more enjoyable for everyone.

For parents of toddlers or infants, a double stroller and car seat is a great option for getting them from point A to point B. Some of the most advanced strollers come with frames that can accommodate two infant car seat or convertible toddler seats. This allows them to be used by children as young as until they reach the age of kindergarten. They are generally more expensive than a standard double buggy stroller frame, but they also offer the convenience of a built-in car seat system and a large undercarriage basket which can accommodate both car seats.

Parents with less children can opt for a single-to-double stroller that is less complicated and more affordable. These strollers are generally lighter in weight, and a few moms have shared with us that they're still using their original stroller years after their children outgrew it.

The compact fold is a excellent feature of the smallest double strollers that we've tested. They can be tucked away where larger strollers wouldn't and are often more maneuverable once folded.

Additionally, the majority of small double strollers we've tested feature a nice-sized sunshade, though it's possible to have nothing to a cocoon cover. For families on a budget you should look into second-hand strollers available on sites like Facebook Marketplace to see if there's a model that meets your family's needs--just be sure to examine any used stroller carefully for signs of wear and tear prior to purchasing one.

Weight

When looking for a compact double stroller, parents should be aware of the amount they wish to spend and whether it is a good fit for their family's lifestyle. For example, a lightweight double pushchair stroller might not provide enough space to store bulky bags or other gear. It might not have a large canopy, or other features to make it more convenient to use during long trips.

The best double strollers are simple to maneuver and durable, so that the children can remain in a comfortable position and not get out of their seats. Strollers with padded seatbacks and adjustable leg rests score higher scores in our tests of comfort than those that do not have. The best double strollers offer reclining seating positions which allow children to relax during long rides.

Innovative designs and thoughtful features have made strollers that can be used in various ways more popular than ever. Some of the best options are able to accommodate multiple car seat installation and offer a wide range of seating configurations from birth to preschool years. Some are even lightweight double stroller enough for jogging or travel.

When choosing a small double stroller it is crucial to determine if the stroller can fit through narrow doors and other spaces. Most older models of side-by-side strollers as well as tandem strollers have an overall wideness that makes them unsuitable for many doors. The most effective double strollers are typically smaller than the standard models, and can be easily pushed through doors.

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

Folding

A small double stroller folds compactly to fit in small spaces. It is also easy to keep in storage. Additionally, its lightweight design makes it possible for it to be easy to move and carry.

Before you choose a small double stroller take note of the location you intend to use it and how often. These questions will help you decide the most important features. For example, if you intend to run with the stroller, then you will want to choose one with a an easy suspension that can glide over rough and uneven terrain.

Also, consider the age and temperaments of your children. If they are close in age, then a side-byside stroller may be best. However, if they're at different stages of development then a tandem style may be better suited for your requirements.

A double stroller is costly, but it's an investment that will pay dividends in the long term. A good model that is suitable for your family's needs can make traveling with kids easier. It can also provide you and your children with years of comfort.

If you're limited with storage space, you might want to consider a small double stroller that can fit both toddler car seats and infant car seats. Evenflo Pivot Xplore Wagon can accommodate twins and is a great option for families with two children. It has two canopy options and a storage bin that attaches, and an infant tray with cup holders. This lightweight, budget-friendly stroller is easy to fold and can be carried using only one hand. It is worth noting, however, that most double modular strollers require you to take off the second seat when folding them.

Maneuverability

The best small double strollers are easy to maneuver and come with smooth, responsive wheels that glide across all types of surfaces. These strollers feature reclined seats that are comfortable and ample storage space for your child's gear. In addition they can accommodate car seat carriers as well as infant toddler seats. These features make these strollers an ideal option for families who want one stroller that can be used for multiple purposes.

Alli Cavasino is a certified child safety technician and a travel gear expert who offers advice to parents on strollers and other equipment. She recommends choosing a lightweight, easy-to-push model. "Strollers that are too heavy could cause frame fatigue and injuries," she says. If your stroller is too heavy and difficult to push, add a ride-along feature or reduce the number of children.

Many of the compact double strollers we tested could accommodate multiple infant car seats. The UPPAbaby Vista v2 double, for instance, can hold two infant seats or toddler seats at the same time and can be transformed into three seats using the RumbleSeat add-on. It also comes with a fashionable design with an inline design, foam-filled tires that can't go flat and an adjustable telescoping handlebar. The seat belts are simple to fasten and undo, and its UPF 50+ sunshades feature windows that peek out.

Other models have seating flexibility, which makes them suitable for twins, multiples, an older child who is a single person, an infant, or a toddler with a riding scooter (sold separately). They also have easy-to-use brakes and a compact fold that fits into most trunks. Some are light enough to transport up and down the stairs. Most require little assembly. The Joovy Caboose, however, requires a few tools and was the most difficult to build during our tests.

Safety

The most reliable double strollers come with numerous safety features. They come with adjustable handlebars that provide a comfortable grip, and a wide base so it won't tip over when the children leap out of their seats. The canopies are big enough to protect both children in the event of rain. They're also simple to use, according to Alli Cavasino, a certified child passenger safety technician. "Look for simple one- or two-step fold that is easy to carry and has a clear place where the straps can be positioned," she says.

The most compact strollers be pushed through doors effortlessly. This is an excellent advantage if you live a small apartment or have a small car. The smallest models weigh less than standard double strollers. This makes them easier to carry from one location to the next.

Parents with children of the same age may opt for a side by side stroller like our top choice for the Joovy Kooper X2, that features two child seats that can be adjusted individually for recline and size. In our tests the seats we found them to be extremely comfortable, and the recline to be quick and intuitive by using a single lever on each seat. It also comes with a massive storage basket, a one-step linked parking brake (to reduce hand fatigue when stopping) and some of the best harnesses we've tested.

If your children are different ages, a sitting-and- stand stroller, such as our top pick the UPPAbaby V2 double, could be an ideal choice. It can be used with two car seats for infants, and it comes with a pair of modified seats that double as bassinets.
