Buying a Twin Stroller With Car Seats

You might opt for an ultra-light frame that can accommodate two car seats for infants during the baby days. The top choices include the UPPAbaby Vista V2 Double and Joovy twinRoo+.

This model allows the car seat carriers to face either in the opposite direction or the same way and has a huge storage bin that is accessible without having to remove the infant carriers. It can also fit through the majority of doors.

Easy folding

The Vista V2 from UPPAbaby is a massive, stunning twin stroller that holds two infant car seats that have the proper adapters (car seat adapters are sold separately). It glids around, pushes and turns as a single-seater stroller. It has adjustable footrests and legrests as well as a large UPF 50+ canopy, peekaboo windows, and padded five-point safety harnesses. The included toddler seat can be utilized, or you can add the RumbleSeat which is a bassinet like seat for infants as well as young children. The oversized storage basket is big enough to hold All Terrain Double Buggy your belongings and includes a handy place to keep your phone or purse as well as four cup holders.

It isn't easy to fold, particularly when you hold the handlebar in one hand while holding the child's seat in the second. And you'll need to disconnect the rear seat from the base when you want to fold it down, a process that takes longer than other double strollers we test. Thankfully, the company has upgraded the Vista to accommodate its new car seat adapters. The latest version (launched in April 2023) is compatible with the original adapters as well as the new ones. It can also be folded with two adapters connected simultaneously.

Another option for families with twins is the Joovy TwinRoo+, our most popular infant car seat twin stroller frame. It can be used with a variety of car seats, and twins can be carried in infant carriers simultaneously. It's a popular choice for parents who drive cars with smaller wheels and its innovative design cuts down the overall length to fit better into smaller trunks. The seats are padded and comfortable, and they recline to multiple positions with the press of the button. The buckles were among the most simple to secure and remove in our tests.

The only drawback to the TwinRoo+ is that its bench seat is designed for a big kid who is at minimum 2 1/2 years old. So it's not a good choice for twins or siblings who are close in age. However, it's a great option for families who wish to jog and its robust frame construction means that it will not wear out as quickly as some other tandems we've tried.

Wheel Suspension

The suspension of the wheel of a twin stroller with car seats is a crucial feature because it helps to make it more comfortable for your kids. This is particularly true if you're walking on bumps and rough terrain. Strollers with suspension have larger wheels, and usually have more shocks than strollers with no suspension. The more shocks a stroller has the smoother its travel.

In addition to being simple to steer, a good wheel suspension also makes a twin stroller with car seats more durable. It can help it last longer, which is great for those who plan to use it for multiple children or a long period of time.

The Baby Trend Snap N-Go Double is one of the best double strollers twin strollers designed for infants with car seats. It features a fantastic wheel suspension and it's an older model. It has a lot of features that many parents appreciate, such as two cup holders, a console for parents with a cup holder as well as an storage basket that can hold a lot. It also has a height-adjustable handle that is useful for taller parents.

Another popular choice for twins with infant car seats is the Chicco BravoFor2. This is a sit and stand stroller that can be used as a twin stroller or with one infant seat in the front. It offers plenty of storage space and is relatively compact when folded. It also has some nice touches that we like, including magnetic straps for the crotch that can be closed and opened with just one hand.

It also comes with a 5-point safety harness that keeps your children safe in the case of an accident. This feature is not always on strollers, but is a must for families with infants or toddlers.

The Contours Options Elite V2 is another top choice for twin strollers that accommodate carseats. It has all the features we love, including recline with one hand and reversible seating, padding that compresses on both seats, adjustable legs rests, zippered extension on both canopy and extra-large storage. It also features height-adjustable handle and an improved seat design to allow for easier reversing of seats on the move.

Canopy

A canopy can shield your children from the elements of rain and sun. Some models come with additional features, like an adjustable handle or peekaboo. One of our top picks that we recommend, the BravoFor2 features an adjustable front seat that buckles at the shoulder and waist--making it simple for a single person to take both children out. Its bench seat is designed to fit a child who's at least 2 1/2 years old. older, which means it's not the best double stroller choice for twins or children who are younger. We liked that this stroller folds into a compact size and comes with a handle on each side to help you carry it to the car.

Some parents prefer a double buggy with carrycot stroller that can be used side-by-side as it is less likely to result in sibling fights. These strollers let parents be able to talk and observe both children at the same time. On the flip side, side-byside strollers are typically heavier and longer than single strollers.

If you're looking for a lightweight and affordable alternative, the Baby Trend double infant stroller Snap-N-Go is a highly-rated and cost-effective option. It can accommodate two car seats for infants, and the newer version lets the seats be positioned in any direction. The most recent model is more compact than the predecessor, but still weighs more and is wider than the Joovy TwinRoo+.

Parents who want to run in tandem, our top-rated twin jogger is the Jeep-branded Urban Glide 3. This stroller can fit one car seat at any given time. It also works with 23 different brands of car seats via an adapter that clicks in, even though it doesn't have an infant carrier built-in. It's a sturdy, well-made stroller, which can handle heavy loads with ease and without strain. We also liked how the handles can be adjusted to fit your height.

If you have two children who are similar age, you may prefer a sit-and-stand model such as the Joovy Twin Roo+. It can be used with the infant car seats or one toddler seat, and offers a standing platform that allows older kids to stand on. It's a little more expensive than our budget-friendly stroller however the company that makes it is a small family company with outstanding customer service.

Seating

If you are planning to use car seats for twin infants then a stroller that accepts them is essential. Many of our top-scoring double strollers are compatible with car seat adapters, making them compatible with the most popular brands. The UPPAbaby Vista v2 double travel stroller stroller can fit two car seats. The Joovy Twin Roo+ can accommodate one car seat as well as the bassinet. We prefer strollers that can work with a variety of infant car seat brands because it allows you to browse a wider range of prices without being tied to the same brand.

You should also consider whether you'd prefer a side-by-side or tandem stroller. A twin stroller that is side-by-side offers the traditional seating configuration, and it's more maneuverable -- especially in tight spaces or over curbs. A tandem stroller may feel unstable and require more space between the seats. The different heights of the seats could also lead to an argument between siblings.

Fortunately, we've found there are plenty of stroller options to suit families with twins who are infants or children who are similar in age. For instance, the Baby Trend Sit and Stand 2.0 double stroller is a highly-rated option that's compatible with car seats (the Secure-Lift 35 as well as the EZ Lift 35 Plus). Parents can take their children in comfort from their car to the stroller.

The stroller's front and rear storage baskets are spacious and spacious, too. They're ideal for storage of everything you need including backpacks, diaper bags, and extra clothes. The front storage compartment has a separate compartment for phones and keys. The baskets are equipped with mesh sides to stop items from falling out, meaning you won't have to keep rummaging for them.

Another option that is budget-friendly is the Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double stroller, which offers a similar range of features as some of our more expensive award winners. Its seats work with two infant car seat carriers and can be converted into two toddler seats or modified bassinets that can be used in either direction. This makes it an ideal option for twins starting from birth through early childhood.
