One alternative is the Joovy TwinRoo+, allows infant car seats to face either way and features a sit-and-stand configuration for older children. Another alternative is a baby jogger, which is perfect for parents who want to take their children for a run. Which stroller is the best for you? Easy to Fold The best double strollers are easy to fold, regardless of whether you're trying to put them in your car or fitting them into a doorway. Most models have a lever that lets you to fold the base and flip the seat back. Some models also have a handle on the top of the stroller, which allows you to lift and carry the entire thing, and some even come with a built-in kickstand that keeps the stroller folded up until you're ready to use it again. If you have twins or plan to have more children in the near future, a double stroller with two infant car seats as well as an add-on board is ideal option. The Baby Trend Double Snap-N-Go is an extremely popular choice. It is compatible with all types of infant seats and features stadium seating for both children to enjoy the sights. This model, however, does not “snap” the car seats in place rather, you tie them in with a strap net and the car seat's rim rests on the frame's edge. If you're planning to shop or walk on the sidewalks of a city look into a stroller that has front and rear wheels that lock to allow for better steering over uneven terrain. A padded three-position handle offers convenience and control and the parent tray includes two cup holders as well as an enclosed storage compartment.

However, it can be difficult to carry and lift without a designated handle. Some jogging strollers have a hook to attach an infant car seat which gives parents up to eight months more walking time.

Certain models, like the UPPAbaby Vista V2 and Evenflo Pivot Xpand are equipped with reclining seats that let children rest comfortably. Others, like the Joovy Caboose Ultralight Graphite and Graco Duet, have seats with only a couple of recline options. The number and location of the sunshades is also important. Some models, such as the UPPAbaby Vista v2 or Evenflo Pivot have two canopies that cover both seats. Others, such as the Joovy Caboose or Graco Duet have only one canopy, which has a window for the rear passenger. This is a great option for parents who have children who tend to fall asleep in the same spot but it's important to remember that they'll only have only a small amount of coverage when the window is open. Comfortable The most important feature of a stroller is the ease of use. Look for a seat that is spacious enough to accommodate both children and also has recline positions. The canopy should be big enough to provide some shade, and there should be a tray for parents with two cup holders.

The top double strollers for cars come with safety features that will make your child feel safe. Choose a model that has a 5-point safety harness that secures your child's shoulders as well as hips – the most rigid parts on their body. This shifts the most intense forces of an accident away from the abdomen and into the seat, making this type of restraint much safer than a lap belt. It's an excellent idea to consider whether the stroller can fit into your home. Most parents have a limited amount of storage space, so make sure that the stroller can fit in your closet or trunk before you purchase it. It is also important to measure the width of any doors which you'll be required to pass through with the stroller in its open. Standard doorways are between 30 to 36 inches wide. However some are wider. If you're looking for a low-cost alternative this model is a good choice.
