Selecting a Double Stroller With Infant Car Seat

A double stroller with infant car seat is a necessity for twins or two children of close age. If you're considering buying a stroller, take into consideration your budget and the length of time you'll use it for.

Kate says she liked the fact that this stroller is lightweight and easy to maneuver. She also appreciated the fact that it folds easily, although she found the magnetic buckles difficult to fasten.

Size

Size is an important aspect to take into consideration when selecting a double stroller that includes an infant car seat infant. The stroller should be small and slim so that parents can easily maneuver it on crowded sidewalks or through the narrow subway gates. The stroller should also be compact and easy to fold so that it can be tucked away in the trunk of a small vehicles.

Consider a double stroller that has two seats and can accommodate infant car seat in the event that you plan to have twins or children who are close in age. These double strollers cost more, but they have a longer life and can be used up to the age of toddler or even beyond. For instance our top pick is the UPPAbaby Vista Double comes with a variety of seating options and can accommodate two infant car seats or toddler seats that convert into bassinets.

We also love strollers that are compatible with different infant car seats and offers more models for families to choose from. For instance, the UPPAbaby Vista can work with the UPPAbaby Mesa, as well as a variety of other infant car seats that have adapters, and also is compatible with the Baby Jogger Glider Board for the third, standing person.

Some parents choose to buy a single-to-double stroller that can adapt to an additional child, but we suggest buying what you need at the right time. You may have another child arrive later than expected or your child may not be able to walk. Moreover, the type of seating in a double stroller and infant car seat can have a major impact on siblings' relationships, especially for kids that are very close in age.

Weight

Double strollers are heavier than single models. They have two seats as well as more cargo, meaning the weight of the final pushing load is higher. It's important to factor in this weight when deciding on your preferred model, especially if you'll be using it for long walks or jogs. The best models will handle the extra weight without shifting and swaying.

It is also important to consider the durability of a double-stroller. The more expensive models have a good build and seating flexibility, which means they'll last longer than the budget competitors. The joovy qool double-bundle, for example, accepts car seat adapters for two infant carseats and can accommodate a second rider through an attachable bassinet. This is a great option for twins, children of different ages or siblings with gaps between them.

The Baby Trend Double Snap N'Go is a great alternative for parents on a tight budget since it can be transformed into a tandem stroller (single file) and accepts two car seats for infants. It is lightweight and compact double stroller making it easy to move around even with the extra weight.

Another option that is budget-friendly is the Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double. It's similar to higher-priced award winners and can accommodate multiple seating configurations for kids of different ages and stages. Its side by side seat design can be used to accommodate twins or children with different ages. It can also be customized by adding additional features like twin bassinets with dual canopies. It can be folded easily and has a small footprint, making it easy to fit into a trunk. The stroller isn't designed to be used until children can sit up on their own without assistance, so infants younger than that will need to be carried or placed into a car seat.

Convenience

It's simpler and less stressful to take your family on a trip if you transfer your infant car seat easily from the car to the stroller. You can simply click the seat in place and move the stroller without having to fold it while holding a baby and a toddler. This convenience is especially useful for long trips where you don't need to unbuckle or re-buckle your child every few minutes.

Parents of twins usually opt for a travel system that will accommodate two infant car seats at the same time. The Graco Fast Action Flip, for instance, provides this functionality and has the added benefit of a bench seat for older siblings. It's not compatible with all Terrain double stroller infant car seats and may be somewhat heavy for certain families.

Some parents choose a double buggy newborn-stroller equipped with an adapter for carseats that is built-in that works with all the major infant car safety seats. The Evenflo Pivot Xpand Combo is a great option, and it comes in at a very friendly price for what you get. Although it's not the most ideal double stroller for twins in the infant stage (it can only be used with one), it can work well for a variety of families and is an excellent option for those looking for a single purchase.

Other double push chair strollers have a more complex process to attach and detach the car seat. The UPPAbaby Vist Double, for example, requires you to push down and then hear a loud click to ensure it's properly secured. It's a bit more difficult to use in a parking garage particularly if your children are hungry or tired. While it will grow with your family, we don’t consider it the best option for parents with twins. You'll have to buy an additional toddler chair when your children are old enough.

Durability

A double stroller that includes an infant car seat needs to be built to last and have durability. It should also be suited to your budget and lifestyle, whether you plan to use the stroller for a few or many years. Take into consideration the quality of the fabric and its components, including its tires, when you make your purchase.

Choose a stroller with a an ample and deep storage basket that will hold plenty of diapers, food items and other necessities. A large console for the parents with cup holders is also beneficial, as is a sun canopy that provides adequate coverage. Make sure the stroller can handle off-road terrain, as well as narrow city sidewalks.

Parents with twins may want a side-by-side stroller to allow the same access and view to both children. Others with children of different ages may choose a tandem stroller that allows the seat of the rear child to be adjusted by raising or lowering it. Tandem strollers are typically bulkier than single strollers, however, and can cause sibling squabbles if the seats are at different heights.

A stroller with an adjustable handlebar will allow you to adjust the height to suit your needs. Also having a one-hand folding mechanism is useful. A small footprint is another aspect to consider. It should be able to fit in your trunk, and require minimal storage space.

A modular stroller, like the CYBEX Gazelle, offers unmatched flexibility. It is possible to mix and match the cots and seating units to accommodate multiples, twins or one child of different age. The sturdy construction and flexibility in seating arrangements make it a great investment if you are planning to keep it for many years to come.

Safety

A quality stroller must be safe for the children riding in the seats as well as the parent who pushes them. Alli Cavasino is a certified child passenger safety technician, suggests that you choose a stroller with ergonomic handlebars with easy-to-use breaks and an adjustable harness. She also recommends avoiding accessories that increase the burden of a stroller such as ride-on boards or extra child seats.

A double stroller needs to be strong enough to traverse different surfaces easily, from suburban sidewalks to park trails. It should be strong enough to navigate curbs and bumps without difficulty and yet flexible enough to climb steep stairs or navigate steep incline. It should also be able to fold up and squeeze into the trunk of a vehicle without restricting its size or maneuverability.

Parents with twins or other siblings who are close in age might be looking at a stroller that can fit two car seats for infants. This will allow them the freedom to move sleeping children from the car to a stroller without disturbing them. A majority of our top-scoring strollers are compatible with two car seats for infants such as the Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double and the UPPAbaby Vista V2 Double.

Another alternative is the joovy Qool double bundle, which can be used with two infant car seats (car seat adapters are sold separately) and comes with an extra Rumble seat that can be converted into a second one when your children are old enough for their car seat. It has stadium seating with plenty of legroom and can be configured so that your children can face eachother or the world. It's not able for two bassinets or an infant car seat and riding board at the same time, but it's a great value for families with multiple young children.
