Buying a Twin Stroller With Car Seats

During the baby days, you might choose to purchase a light frame stroller that can accommodate two infant car seats. Some of the top options include the UPPAbaby Vista V2 Double or Joovy TwinRoo+.

This model allows the car seat carriers to be facing opposite directions or in the same direction and also has a huge storage bin that you can access without having to remove the infant carriers. It is also able to fit through the majority of doors.

Folding Ease

The Vista V2 by UPPAbaby is a huge, gorgeous twin stroller that holds two infant car seats fitted with the correct adapters (car seat adapters are available separately). It is easy to push and glide, turning and spinning like a single-seat stroller. It comes with an adjustable leg and foot rests, a generous UPF 50+ canopy that has peekaboo windows and padded five-point security harnesses that are easy to fasten and unfasten. It comes with a toddler seat, or add the RumbleSeat which is a bassinet like seat for babies and small children. The large storage basket has plenty of space to store all your belongings. It also has four cup holders, as well as a space to store your purse or phone.

It isn't easy to fold, particularly when you're holding the handlebar in one hand and the seat for your child in the other. You'll also need to disconnect the rear seat from the base when you want to fold it up--a process that takes longer than other double infant strollers strollers we test. The company has upgraded its Vista stroller to work with the new car seat adapters. The new version--launched April 2023) will work with both the original and updated adapters in both positions, and it will even fold with two of the adapters connected at once.

Another option for families with twins is the Joovy TwinRoo+, our favorite infant car seat twin stroller frame. It works with 23 different car seat models and is able to carry twins in infant carriers side by side. It's a favorite for many parents who drive smaller cars and its clever design cuts down the overall length to fit better in trunks that are compact. The seats are cushioned and comfortable, and they can recline to multiple positions with the press of one button. The buckles are among the easiest to unfasten and fasten in our tests.

The only issue with the TwinRoo+ is its bench seat, which is intended for a child of at least 2 1/2 years old. It's not suitable for twins or siblings with similar age. It's still a great option for families that want to go jogging and the robust design means that it won't deteriorate as fast as other tandems.

Wheel Suspension

The suspension of the wheel on a twin stroller that has car seats makes it more comfortable for the kids. This is particularly true if you're going over bumps or rough terrain during your walks. Strollers that have suspension have bigger wheels, and typically have more shocks than those without. The more comfortable a stroller rides and the more shocks it comes with.

Canopy

It BravoFor2, has a front seat that can be buckled at the shoulder and waist--making it easy for a single parent to take the kids both out. The bench seat can only accommodate children who are at least 2 1/2, so it is not suitable for twins or smaller siblings. However, we liked that this stroller folds into a compact unit and comes with a handle on the sides to help move it to your car.

Some parents prefer a double running buggy stroller that can be used side-by-side as it is less likely to create sibling conflicts. These strollers let parents communicate and interact with both children at the same time. On the other hand, side-by-side strollers are typically heavier and longer than single strollers.

If you're looking for a light alternative, our budget-friendly pick is the Baby Trend Double Snap-N'-Go is an affordable and highly rated selection. It can accommodate two car seats for infants.

We found the new model to be smaller than its predecessor, however it weighs a bit more and is longer 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. This stroller can fit one car seat at a given time.

Seating

Many of our top-scoring double buggy with car seat - from Alonegocio, strollers come with car seat adapters, making them compatible with all the top brands. The UPPAbaby Vista v2 Double stroller can fit two car seats. The Joovy Twin Roo+ can accommodate one car seat, as well as the bassinet. We prefer strollers compatible with multiple infant car seats since you can choose from a variety of prices and not be shackled into one brand.

You'll also want to consider whether you'd like a side-by-side or tandem stroller. A twin stroller with a side-byside arrangement is more traditional and easy to maneuver, especially in restricted spaces and over curbs. A tandem stroller on the other hand, can feel more unstable and requires more room between the seats. Additionally, the various heights of seats can result in sibling rivalries, so we recommend that you choose a tandem stroller only when your children are nearing age.

There are numerous stroller options for families with twins or children with similar age. For instance, the Baby Trend Sit and Stand 2.0 double stroller is highly rated that is compatible with car seats (the Secure-Lift 35 and the EZ-Lift 35 Plus).
