Double Stroller With Car Seat Compatability
Parents of twins or other multiples may want a double stroller which can accommodate two infant car seats simultaneously. The TwinRoo+ is a tough, frame stroller that takes 23 different car seat models (car seats and adapters are sold separately).
It also comes with a massive storage basket, cup holders for parents and reversible seating that offers the best legroom between the two seats.
double pram pushchair (r), Universal Double Snap-N-Go (r)
The Baby Trend(r) Universal Double Snap-N-Go(r) is a great stroller that can be used with most infant car seats. It comes with large storage baskets and a parent tray with two cup holders. The stroller is light and folds up easily to store it or transport it. It's among our strollers that is easy to maneuver and is a great side-by-side design. It's not very effective in our jog test, and struggles on higher curbs. The swivel front wheels aren't able to grip obstacles.
The adapters for this stroller are simple to install and compatible with most major brands. The stroller can only fit one car seat at a given time and parents with twins will need to find another option to use their infant car seats simultaneously. The UPPAbaby Vista V2 Double and the Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double are top choices that can be used with two infant car seats at once.
The Baby Trend is easy-to-use and has a nice basket, however, it falls short of our ride comfort measure. The stroller does not have shocks that absorb road vibrations and bumps which could be challenging for little passengers. Also the lack of a seat recline means children will feel every bump in the road. It might not be an issue as passengers get older however it is important to consider when your children are toddlers or infants.
It is a lightweight frame stroller, weighing less than 40lbs. It feels heavy with cargo and passengers. The lack of the lock for jogging makes it difficult to jog, and it had a hard time in navigating gravel, grass, and sidewalks in our tests. The BOB Revolution is a lighter alternative for jogging and weighs 41 pounds. It can still be difficult to lift and carry but it has a handle specifically made for this purpose. The jog strollers benefit from having bigger wheels that provide greater off-road performance. They also have a more sturdy chassis and are made of durable materials that are able to be used for a long time.
The Contours(r), Options Elite V2 double stroller
The Contours(r) Options Elite V2 has all the features that parents love: reversible seats, one-hand reclining, adjustable legs rests, zippered extensions on both canopies, and a cupholder for the parent. It also has some great new features, including the height-adjustable handles and quilted seat. It also has seven seating configurations, including the hard-to-find double rear facing position that allows kids to see each their friends while watching dad and mom.
This stroller's compatibility with multiple infant car seats is one of its greatest features. It provides families with more options and keeps them from being tied to a single model of stroller that works with a baby car seat. The Options Elite is compatible with Graco infant car seats as well as Britax double car seats. It also supports the UPPAbaby Mesa or Baby Jogger City Select double car seats. It even has an additional adapter for parents who have twins, or wish to use two infant car seats.
It's not a side-by-side stroller and has the feel of one stroller and is able to be used in all doorways and aisles with ease. Although it's not as maneuverable as a jogging stroller, it's a great choice for road trips and shopping excursions. It weighs a bit heavier than other double strollers but it's not too heavy for petite women to carry and maneuver.
The seats are quite comfortable for children, and there's a decent-sized storage basket. The canopy is big as well, and can be zipped off for an extra shade. It does not have much storage space for parents' requirements, which can be a concern for some families.
The stroller comes with a foot brake and a safety harness. It also comes with five-point harnesses for each child. The front wheels can be locked for added stability and the handles are ergonomically designed. It's easy to fold and stands up when folded. It's not folded with just one hand as some of the other top strollers however, it's easy to fold after a few hours of practice.
The Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double
Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double stroller is a stylish, budget-friendly and modern stroller that will grow with your family. It offers car seat compatibility, reversible seating, and a sleek frame. This stroller is easy to operate and features a single-handed fold that allows for a self-stand. It's a great value for the price, especially considering its low cost. It does have an unmistakably heavier feel than a lot of the competition and smaller wheels that struggle when pushing off-road or through tight turns and narrow doorways.
This stroller is compatible with two infant car seats or toddler seats (sold separately) - no adapters required. The frame of the stroller can be expanded in a matter of seconds, by adding another seat. This is accomplished without the need for tools or additional parts. It can also be configured in 23 different ways across the USA to fit toddlers and infants at different heights. The second seat can be used to hold baby at a comfortable angle in infant mode or for older children, in stroller mode with three reclining positions and a footrest that is adjustable in five positions.
A large, spacious storage basket, as well as back and front-accessible seat pockets increase this stroller's utility and the padded, contoured seat offers the most comfortable ride for passengers. A canopy that can be extended keeps children safe from the sun's rays, while a peek-aboo window allows parents to watch their little ones.
The Stroller Rider Board accessory can be added to create a tandem so that siblings can share a ride or as an alternative for the standard toddler seat. The flex-hold cupholder can accommodate a variety of beverages, and the stroller is foldable with the toddler seat connected, making it simple to access storage space.
A majority of reviewers are impressed by how easily the Pivot Xpand stroller can be extended to include the second seat. Some have pointed out that it is a bit difficult to attach an infant car seat to the mounts that are integrated, but attaching the second toddler seat is simpler and faster. Evenflo provides a video chat feature that allows customers to ask any questions or seek assistance in attaching car seats. The only other significant drawback for this stroller is its short warranty.
The Jeep Bravo For 2
The Bravo For 2 is an excellent stroller that is ideal for siblings of similar ages. It is easy-to-assemble straight from the box and, unlike other sit-and stand alternatives, it weighs at under 23 pounds. The seats are able to recline in different positions to allow your baby or toddler to snooze and even have a footrest for those who require it. The padded handle bar is in the ideal position for children older than 5 years old to hold while standing, even when wearing mittens. Many parents have reported that this feature alone makes it safer than the majority of its rivals.
The stroller is padded with a back seat that can accommodate children up to 2 years. This lets you keep your child rear-facing for longer, which is a big advantage for parents who adhere to the #TurnAfter2 movement, which encourages toddlers and babies to remain rear-facing until they are at least two years old. The seat is easy to buckle and features the same five-point harness that is found on the front seat.
The Bravo For 2 has another benefit: it can be used with Chicco KeyFit car seats or Fit2 in the front. Simply push down on the front seat, snap in your infant carrier, and listen for the sound that lets you know it's secure. This alone makes it one of the most adaptable double strollers out there and lets you avoid spending money on a stroller that is only used once that could end up in your garage, or even donated to your local secondhand store.
This stroller is the only one with a major flaw: it does not come with an holder for cups or tray for parents. The storage space is also limited. It's a great option for families with a child who walks the entire stroll and a child in a car seat up in front. It's also a great choice to travel with, since it folds easily into a compact size that can be gate-checked into a plane or stored in your trunk.
