Buying a Twin Stroller With Car Seats

You could choose a frame that is lightweight and can accommodate two infant car seats during the baby days. Some of the best travel double stroller options include the UPPAbaby Vista V2 Double or Joovy TwinRoo+.

This model allows the car seat carriers to face opposite directions or in the same direction and has a huge storage bin that you can access without removing the infant carrier. It also fits through the majority of doors.

Easy folding

The Vista V2 by UPPAbaby is a stunning, huge twin stroller that can carry two infant car seats that have the correct adapters (car seat adapters are available separately). It glides, turns and pushes like a single-seater stroller. It has adjustable leg and footrests, a large UPF 50+ canopy, peekaboo windows, and padded five-point safety harnesses. The toddler seat included can be used, or you can add the RumbleSeat which is a bassinet style seat for infants as well as young children. The oversized storage basket is spacious enough for all your stuff and has a convenient spot to stash your purse or phone, as well as four cup holders.

However, it can be difficult to fold, particularly when you have one hand on the handlebar and the other on the car seat of your child. You'll also need to remove the rear seat from its base in order to fold the stroller, which can take longer than other double strollers that we've tried. Thankfully, the company has updated the Vista to work with its new car seat adapters. The latest version (launched in April 2023) is compatible with both the original adapters and the latest ones. It can even be folded with two adapters that can be connected at once.

The Joovy TwinRoo+ is our favorite twin stroller frame for infant car seats. It can be used with 23 different car seats, and twins can be carried in infant carriers simultaneously. It's a popular choice for parents who drive smaller cars and its clever design shortens the overall length so that it fits better in some compact trunks. The seats are padded and comfortable, and can recline to a variety of positions at the press of the button. The buckles were among the easiest to tighten and unwind in our tests.

The only issue with the TwinRoo+ is its bench seat, which is designed for a child who is at least 2 1/2. It is not suitable for twins or siblings with similar age. However, it's a great option for families who wish to run, and its tough structure means that the frame will not wear out as quickly as other tandems we've tested.

Wheel Suspension

The wheel suspension on twin strollers with car seats makes it more comfortable for children. This is particularly true when you're crossing bumps or taking rough terrain on your walks. Strollers with suspension generally have larger wheels and shocks. The more smooth a stroller's ride, the more shocks it has.

In addition to being easy to steer, good wheel suspension can make a twin stroller that has car seats more robust. It will last longer and is ideal if you are planning to use it for a number of children or for a prolonged time.

The Baby Trend Snap-N Go Double is among the top twin strollers for infants with car seats. It comes with a great suspension on the wheels and is an old model. It's loaded with features that parents love, including two cup holders, a parent console with a cup holder and a storage basket that can hold a lot. It also has a height-adjustable handle that can be useful for taller parents.

Another popular choice for twins who have infant car seats is the Chicco BravoFor2. It is a sit-and- stand stroller that can either be used as a twin stroller, or with a single infant seat in the front. It's a large stroller and folds up to a compact size. It also comes with a few pleasant features we like for example, magnetic straps for the crotch that can be opened and closed by using just one hand.

It is also equipped with a five-point safety harness that will keep your children secure in the case of an accident. This isn't always found on strollers but it's mandatory for any family with infants or toddlers.

The Contours Options Elite V2 is another top choice for twin strollers that accommodate car seats. It has all the features we love, such as the ability to reversibly seat and recline one hand, compression padding on both seats, adjustable legs rests, zippered extension on both canopy and extra-large storage. It also has a height-adjustable handle and a redesigned seat to allow for easier reversing of seats on the move.

Canopy

A canopy will protect your children from the rain and sun. Some models come with additional features, like the ability to peek behind or adjust the handles. One of our top picks is the BravoFor2, features an front seat with an adjustable buckle that can be adjusted to the waist and shoulders. This makes it possible for one caregiver to take two children out. The bench seat is able to accommodate children of at least 2 1/2 years old, therefore, it's not suitable for twins or younger siblings. We liked that the stroller folds up into a compact package and has handles on both sides to help roll it up to the car.

Some parents prefer a double stroller that can be used side-by-side because it is less likely to result in sibling fights. These strollers allow parents to see and converse with both children simultaneously. On the downside, side-by-side models tend to be heavier and longer than single strollers.

If you are looking for a lightweight and affordable option, the Baby Trend pushchair double Snap-N-Go is a highly rated and cost-effective option. It can fit two infant car seats. The newer version can be set up in any direction. We found the new model to be smaller than the previous model, however it still weighs a little more and is larger than the Joovy TwinRoo+.

For parents who want to run the twin jogger that we recommend as our top pick is the Jeep-branded Urban Glide 3. It can hold one car seat at any given time. It also works with 23 different car seat brands using the click-in-adapter, despite the fact that it does not have an infant carrier included. It's a solid, well-made stroller that can handle large loads without straining, and we were impressed by the way the handles adjust to your height.

If you have two children with the same age, you might prefer a sit-and-stand model such as the Joovy Twin Roo+. The stroller can accommodate two infant car seats or one toddler seat. It also has a platform for older children to stand on. It's a tad more expensive than our budget stroller, but it's made by a small, family-owned business with excellent customer service.

Seating

If you plan to use car seats for twin infants, then a stroller which will accept them is crucial. A lot 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 stroller can fit two car seats. The Joovy Twin Roo+ can accommodate a single car seat, as well as an infant bassinet. We recommend strollers that work with a variety of infant car seats brands because it lets you shop for a wide range of prices without being tied to the same brand.

You'll need to decide whether you prefer a tandem or a side-by-side stroller. A twin stroller with a side-by-side arrangement is more traditional and easier to maneuver, particularly in narrow spaces and over curbs. A tandem double stroller stroller however is more unstable and requires more space between the seats. Additionally, the various seat heights can lead to sibling squabbles, so we suggest that you select a tandem stroller only when your kids are close in age.

There are a variety of strollers available for families with twins or children who are similar age. The Baby Trend Sit N' Stand double stroller, for example, is a highly rated option that works with car seats. This lets parents take their children in comfort from their car to the stroller.

The front and rear baskets of the stroller are spacious. They're ideal for storage of all your gear including diaper bags, backpacks and other clothes. The front storage has a compartment for your phone and keys. The baskets are mesh-sided to stop objects from falling, meaning you don't need to search around to find them.

Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double Stroller For 3 Year Old is an alternative that is affordable. It offers a similar level of versatility as many of our award-winning strollers. Its seats can be converted into two toddler seats, or modified bassinets. They can be combined with two infant car seats. This makes it an ideal option for twins starting from birth to early childhood.
