Buying a Twin Stroller With Car Seats

During the baby days, you might choose to go with a lightweight frame stroller that can accommodate two infant car seats. The best options include the UPPAbaby Vista V2 Double and Joovy twinRoo+.

This model allows car seat carriers to face opposite directions or in the same direction and comes with a large storage bin that you can access without removing the infant carriers. It also fits through most doors.

Easy folding

The UPPAbaby Vista V2 is a huge, gorgeous twin stroller that holds two infant car seats that have the proper adapters (car seat adapters are sold separately). It glids around, pushes and turns as a single-seater stroller. It comes with an adjustable leg and foot rests, a large UPF 50+ canopy that has windows that peek out at the sky, and padded five-point safety harnesses that are simple to fasten and unfasten. The toddler seat included can be used, or you could add the RumbleSeat which is a bassinet like seat for infants and young children. The large storage basket is roomy enough for all your stuff and comes with a convenient place to stash your phone or purse, as well as four cup holders.

It isn't easy to fold, particularly if you are holding the handlebar with one hand while holding the child's seat in the second. You'll also have remove the rear seat from its base to fold the stroller, which is more time-consuming than the other double strollers we've tested. Fortunately, the company upgraded the Vista to accommodate its new car seat adapters. The new version (launched in April 2023) is compatible with adapters that were originally used and the new ones. It can also be folded using two adapters connected simultaneously.

Another option for families with twins is the Joovy TwinRoo+, our favorite infant car seat twin stroller frame. It is compatible with 23 different car seat models and is able to carry twins in infant carriers side-by-side. It's a popular choice for parents who drive cars with smaller wheels and its innovative design shortens the overall length so that it fits better in some compact trunks. The seats are padded and comfortable, and can recline to various positions with the touch of the button. The buckles were among the most simple to tighten and unwind in our tests.

The only issue with the TwinRoo+ is that its bench seat is designed for a large child who's at minimum 2 1/2 years old. So it's not suitable for twins or siblings who are close in age. However, it's a great choice for families who want to jog Pushchairs And Prams its robust structure means that the frame will not wear out as fast as other tandems we've tested.

Wheel Suspension

The suspension of the wheel on twin strollers that have car seats makes it more comfortable for the kids. This is especially true when you're crossing bumps or navigating rough terrain during your walks. Strollers that have suspension have bigger wheels, and typically have more shocks than strollers without. The more comfortable a stroller rides, the more shocks it will have.

A twin stroller with a car seat that is easy to steer will also be more durable. It will allow it to last longer, which is great if you plan on using it for multiple kids or for a long period of time.

One of the top twin strollers that come with car seats for infants comes with great wheel suspension and is an old model that's been around for long enough The Baby Trend Snap-N-Go Double. It has many features that parents will love, including two cup holders, a parent console with cup holder, and a large storage bin. It comes with a height-adjustable handle that is useful for taller parents.

It is a very spacious stroller and folds up to a small size. It also comes with a few pleasant features we like, including magnetic straps for crotch that can be closed and opened with just one hand.

It also has adjustable height handle and a modernized seat design that makes it simpler to flip the seats around when you're on the go.

Canopy

A quality canopy will keep your children shielded from the rain or sun, and a few models include extra features, such as a peekaboo window or adjustable handles. One of our top picks that we recommend, the BravoFor2 is equipped with the front seat that is adjustable at the shoulder and waist--making it simple for a single caregiver to take both kids out. The bench seat can only be used by children who are at least 2 1/2, therefore it's not suitable for twins or children with younger siblings. However, we liked the fact that it folds down into a compact package and has handles on each side to help you roll it up to the car.

Some parents might prefer a double stroller with car seat stroller that is side-by-side because it's less prone to squabbles between siblings. These kinds of strollers let you see both children at the same time and make it easier for parents to supervise and converse with them. On the flip side, side-byside models are often heavier and longer than single strollers.

It is compatible with two infant car seats, and the newer version allows the seats to face either way.

Seating

If you plan to use car seats for twin infants and a stroller that will accept them is crucial. Our top-scoring strollers are compatible with the most popular car seat brands. For example the UPPAbaby Vista v2 double works with two car seats and the Joovy Twin Roo+ accommodates one car seat as well as bassinet (sold separately). We prefer strollers that work with a variety of infant car seat brands because it allows you to browse at a greater variety of prices without being tied to a specific brand.

You'll need to decide whether you prefer a tandem or side-byside stroller. A twin stroller with a side-by-side arrangement is more traditional and simpler to maneuver, especially in narrow spaces and over curbs. A tandem stroller could feel unstable and require more space between the seats. The different seat heights may cause an argument between siblings.
