Best Twin Stroller For Newborns
A double stroller is essential if you're expecting twins or if you have two children who are similar in age. The top double strollers offer different ways to ride your children with side-by-side seating and an attachment for a board.
The Bugaboo Donkey 5 Mono is Lauren Ro's top stroller. It can adapt to your family's needs effortlessly. It can be used with two infant car seats, as well as the toddler seat. This makes it an excellent choice for twins.
Bugaboo Donkey
This is the best twin stroller for families who want a stylish double side-by-side stroller. It is a little more bulkier than other Bugaboo models, but it feels solid and built to last. It has a handlebar that can be adjusted to retract and extend easily. It also has a great reach, making it easy for my husband of 6'1 to push, even when fully loaded.
The seats are large and can be positioned to place one child behind the other, or to have children face each one. The seats can recline independently of one other. The canopies cover both fabric seats If you want. But they don't have adequate ventilation, so they could appear like a small oven on hot days. There's no way to see your children.
This stroller features an exclusive feature that allows it to grow with you and your family. It can be converted from one seat (Mono Mode) to a double stroller with bassinet side by side stroller. This is the only double stroller convertible to do this. It can even be used with another car seat or bassinet for infants.
It is a breeze to use on smooth surfaces, and it handles stairs and slopes well. It can be difficult to maneuver in crowded stores and restaurants. It is also a little difficult to fold, particularly when seats are attached. It's still pretty small, however, and can be tucked away easily.
In mono mode, there's a storage bin in front of the front seats. This is great for grocery shopping and other supplies. The main storage basket underneath the seats is large and can support up to 100 pounds, which is more than any other stroller on this list!
Uppababy Vista V2
This is among the top twin strollers for new babies. It can be used with a variety of infant car seats and bassinets (adapters are sold separately) and can be used as a double buggy that converts to single stroller right out of the box. The Vista Upper and Vista Lower adapters let you use two infant car seats at the same time.
The V2 is an improved version of the original Vista. The toddler seat has been raised by half an inch, the footrest has been made bigger and the canopy comes with an extra fabric extension that zips out. Additionally, the harness has been updated and does not require re-threaded, making it easy to adjust.
The stroller comes with big wheels (8" in front and 11.5" in the back) and a sturdy suspension system, which can navigate any terrain. The rubber wheels on the front are perfect to navigate through rocks and gravel, while the tread on the rear wheels is better for grassy hills or sidewalks.
Another feature that is great is the ability to attach a child's bike to the front of the stroller, which is an excellent option for those who don't want to use an infant car seat or Rumbleseat. If you have an older child who is able to stand in the Vista, the Vista can accommodate the third child using its piggyback ride along board.
Vista is a simple device single to double pushchair use. Vista is simple to use and install. However, it takes some time to take off all the protective packaging. The instructions are simple to follow and there's also a YouTube video to help should you require further assistance.
Thule Urban Glide 3
The Thule Urban Glide 3 is the latest version of the popular stroller that is made to draw the attention of modern families who value style, sustainability and adventure. It's got exciting new features such as a built-in foot rest and a new reclined seat that promises unbeatable comfort for children during long walks and jogs. Its sleek, agile design increases its maneuverability.
It's extremely light, which makes it easy to push and easy to accelerate when you're hitting the open road. Its suspension handles abrupt changes in the surface (like grass to pavement) with ease and the oversized wheels provide ample traction for even the roughest of terrain. It can easily climb over kerbs and turn tight spaces like city streets. It's also easy to navigate narrow sidewalks and crowded parks.
Although the new Urban Glide 3 offers superior performance, it also retains the classic Thule qualities that make it the ideal jogger for parents. The oversized canopy provides excellent sun protection, has a convenient peekaboo and a top-quality harness system and a handbrake that is perfectly adjusted. It also comes with ample storage, including in-seat storage pockets and a large cargo basket that can hold up to 15 pounds with an open-top cover.
This Thule Jogger also comes with an infant bassinet for strolling babies, and a double version that can accommodate two children. It accepts car seat adapters, so you can use your infant carrier and it comes with a fold that is one-handed, making it easy to transport and put away. 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 needs and preferences of each child. The two stroller seats of the double stroller have canopies that are reclining and backrests that are independent. They're also designed to accept one of Chicco's top-rated KeyFit or KeyFit 30 infant car seats in the front seat and rear seat (car seat sold separately) using the exclusive click-in attachment, without the need for add-on straps or bars, which other models that require.
A padded 3-position handle comfortably accommodates mom or dad, and a zippered rear access large basket provides ample storage space for gear. The tandem double stroller's suspension and wheels ensure a smooth ride on all terrains and the 1-touch linked rear brakes with toe-tap activation makes stopping a breeze.
In our Strollers & Multiples laboratory tests, Cortina Together received high scores for its ease of use. This metric is based on how easy it is to fold and set up the stroller, adjust the safety harness and open and close the snack tray, engage and disengage the brakes, then lift and carry the stroller as if putting it into a trunk, and for compatible double strollers, install and remove the infant car seat.
There are some downsides to this model, though. First, it's heavy. It weighs 36.6 pounds fully loaded which puts it close to the top of our measurement. It also has a limited view from the back seat when a car seat is installed. Additionally the front tray release can be difficult to operate, particularly when used for a long time. However, despite these issues, we consider this to be a great stroller to have for your family.
Jeep Double Stroller
The Jeep Destination Ultralight Side x Side Double Stroller is a lightweight, affordable stroller ideal for families with two children. Its front swivel lock wheels rotate to maneuver on flat surfaces, and lock for stability on bumpy ones, making it easy to get where you'd like to go. It has an umbrella that folds down compactly and can be closed in a matter of seconds. It also stands upright to make transporting it simpler. Its aluminum frame that is lightweight, foam handle and carrying strap makes it one of the easiest double strollers to lift in our tests.
This stroller with a side-by-side design offers seating that reclines independently and foot rests to ensure maximum comfort for both kids. The large canopy provides UPF 50 protection and includes a peekaboo view for easy monitoring. We would have liked to see the canopy vented for more airflow. We were not happy that the cup holder is quite high up on the frame. You'll need to bend down to reach it.
In our tipping test in our tipping-test, the Jeep fell over at a 39-degree angle, which is higher than the average for double running stroller prams. It's also heavier than our top picks, but it offers a decent amount of storage space for its cost and has a decent amount of padding in the seats as well as the handle.
The stroller is a versatile model with three modes: wagon (just for stuff) and the jogger (with two 5-point safety harnesses designed for children) and car seat mode. It can be used with an car seat for infants. However, pediatricians suggest that you wait until your child is six months old before allowing them to jog with them. It is available in black and comes with a limited warranty.
