Best Twin Stroller For Newborns
If you're expecting twins, or have two children that are close in age A double stroller is a must. The best strollers offer numerous ways for your children to ride such as side-by-side seating, and the ability to attach a rider's board.
The Bugaboo Donkey 5 Mono is Lauren Ro's favorite stroller. It can be adapted to your family's needs seamlessly. It can fit two infant car seats as well a toddler car seat, making it a great option for twins starting at birth.
Bugaboo Donkey
This is the ideal double buggy from birth stroller for families looking for a stylish, side-by-side double stroller double (http://enbbs.instrustar.com/home.php?mod=space&uid=848042). It's a little bigger than other Bugaboo strollers, but it feels solid and built to last. It has a handlebar which can be adjusted to extend and retract easily. It also has a great reach, so it's easy for my 6'1 husband to push, even when fully loaded.
Seats are spacious, and can be positioned so that one child sits behind another or so that the children are facing each other. The seats can recline independently from each other. The canopies are huge and cover both seat fabrics if desired. They're not a lot of ventilation which makes them feel like an oven on hot days. There's no way to look at your children.
One of the most distinctive features of this stroller is its ability to adapt to your family's needs from one seat (Mono mode) all the way up to a double side-by-side stroller. This is the only convertible double stroller that can do this! It can be used in conjunction with another car seat or bassinet for infants.
It is a breeze to use on smooth surfaces, and it is able to handle slopes and stairs well. The only issue is that it can be difficult to navigate busy restaurants and shops. It is also difficult to fold, particularly when seats are attached. It's still quite compact, and is able to fit through most doors easily.
There is an additional storage bin that can be tucked away on the frame next to the front seat in mono mode. This is great for groceries and other things. The main storage basket underneath the seats is huge and can accommodate up to 100 lbs. This is more than any stroller we have listed!
Uppababy Vista V2
This is one of the best twin buggy from birth strollers designed for new newborns. It can be used straight out of box as a double stroller and is compatible with numerous infant car seats and bassets. The Vista Upper and Vista Lower adapters let you use two infant car seats simultaneously.
Compared to the original Vista, The V2 has added a few enhancements to make it better. The toddler seat has been raised by half an inch, the footrest has been made larger, and the canopy is an extra fabric extension that zips out. Additionally, the harness has been modernized - it doesn't require re-threaded, making it easy to adjust.
The stroller comes with fairly large wheels (8 inches in front and 11.5 inches in the back) with a sturdy suspension, which means it is able to easily navigate any terrain. The front wheels are made of rubber which makes them suitable for navigating gravel, rocks and cobblestones. The rear wheels are more grippy to handle grassy hills and sidewalks.
Another great feature is the ability to connect a child's bicycle to the front of the stroller, which is a handy option for those who aren't interested in using an infant car seat or Rumbleseat. And if you have a child who is able to stand in the Vista, the Vista can even fit the third child using its piggyback ride along board accessory.
Vista is a simple device to use. Vista is easy to use and set up, although it takes some time to unpack all of the protective packaging. The instructions are simple to follow, and there's also a YouTube video available should you require further assistance.
Thule Urban Glide 3
The Thule Urban Glide 3 stroller is the most recent version of the popular all-terrain stroller. It's designed to appeal to families that are looking for style, sustainability and adventure. It comes with exciting improvements, including a built-in leg rest and a reclined seat that offers unbeatable comfort for children during long jogs and walks. Its sleek, agile design increases its maneuverability.
It is extremely light, making it simple to drive and quick to accelerate on the open road. Its suspension handles abrupt changes in surface (like pavement to grass) with ease and the oversized wheels provide plenty of traction on even the most difficult terrain. It can easily climb kerbs without difficulty and can turn in tight spaces like city streets with precision. It's also easy to navigate narrow sidewalks and overcrowded parks.
While the new Urban Glide 3 offers superior performance, it still retains the classic Thule characteristics that make it an ideal jogger for parents. It comes with a huge canopy that offers an excellent sun protection as well as an easy-to-see window that can be opened for peekaboo, a top-quality harness system and a handbrake integrated with an extremely tuned lever. It is packed with storage space, including pockets on the seat and a large cargo bag that can hold up to 15 pounds.
This Thule Jogger also has an infant bassinet for strolling newborns and a double version to accommodate two children. It comes with car seat adapters, meaning that you can use the infant carrier of your child. It also comes with an easy-folding system that can be folded with one hand to help you transport it or store. It's also a green option, as it uses dyed solution in its black color choices.
Cortina Together
Cortina Together is designed for growing families and offers parents the option of seating to meet the preferences and needs of every child. The two stroller seats of the double stroller feature reclining backrests, and canopies that are independent. They're also designed to take one of Chicco's top-rated KeyFit or KeyFit 30 infant car seats in the front seat and rear seat (car seat sold separately) with the exclusive click-in attachment without the need for additional straps and bars, as many other models need.
A large, zip-up basket in the rear offers ample storage space for the equipment. The handle is padded to fit dad or mom. The tandem double stroller's wheels and suspension ensure a smooth ride on all terrains, and the one-touch rear brakes that are linked and have a toe-tap activation makes stopping a breeze.
In our Strollers & Multiples lab tests, Cortina Together scored well in terms of ease of use. This metric is based on how simple it is to set up and fold the stroller and to adjust the safety harness, open and close the snack tray, disengage and engage the brakes, then lift and carry the stroller like you would put it in a trunk, and for double strollers compatible install and remove an infant car seat.
There are some downsides to this model, however. First, it's heavy. It weighs 36.6 pounds when fully loaded which is on the beast side of our metric, and is heavier than the average for this class of strollers. It also has limited visibility in the back seat when a car seat is installed. The front tray release isn't always easy to use, especially when used for a long time. However, despite these limitations, we believe this is a fantastic double stroller that can keep your family together for a long time.
Jeep Double Stroller
Jeep Destination Ultralight Side x Side Double Stroller - A lightweight, budget-friendly stroller for families with 2 children. The front swivel-lock wheels turn to maneuver on flat surfaces and ensure stability on bumpy ones making it easy to go where you want to go. It comes with a compact double buggy folding umbrella that can be closed in just a few seconds. It also stands upright to make moving it easier. Its lightweight aluminum frame, foam handles and carrying strap make it one of the easiest-to-lift double strollers that we have tested.
This tandem stroller features independently reclining seats for maximum comfort. Its large canopy offers UPF 50 protection and includes an open view for easy monitoring. We'd like to see the canopy ventilated to allow for more airflow, though. We were not happy the fact that the cup holder sits extremely high on the frame. You'll have to bend down in order to reach it.
In our tipping test it was found that the Jeep tipped over at a 39 degree angle, which is more than the norm for the double pram. It's also a bit heavier than our top picks, however, it has a decent amount of storage space at a reasonable price and comes with plenty of padding in the seats and handle.
This versatile stroller has three modes: wagon (just for stuff), Jogger (with two 5-point safety harnesses designed for children) and car seat mode. It can fit one infant car seat, but pediatricians recommend waiting until your child is 6 months old before jogging with them and 1 year old before taking them on rough terrain. It is available in black and comes with a limited warranty.
