Best Twin Stroller For Newborns

If you're expecting twins, or have two kids close in age the double stroller is essential. The best ones offer multiple ways for your kids to ride, including side-by-side seating and a rider board attachment.

Lauren Ro, a writer and strategist who writes for the blog, loves is the Bugaboo Donkey 5 Mono, which is easily adapted as your family grows. It can accommodate two infant car seats as well as a toddler car seat, making it a great choice for twins from birth.

Bugaboo Donkey

This is the top double pushchairs stroller for families who are looking for a stylish, side-byside double stroller. It's a bit bulkier than the other Bugaboo models, but it feels solid and built to last. It has a handlebar that can be adjusted to extend and retract easily. It has a decent reach so that my husband, who is 6'1" is able to easily push it when it is full of weight.

The seats are large and can be set up so that one child is behind the other or to have children facing each other. The seats can recline independently of each other. The canopies are large and cover both fabric should you wish. However, they don't provide much ventilation so they can feel like a small oven on hot days. There's no peek-a-boo window to see your kids.

One of the most unique features of this stroller is its ability to adapt to your family's needs from a single to double stroller seat (Mono mode) to grow to a double stroller with bassinet buggy that converts to single (opensourcebridge.science) side-by-side stroller. It is the only double stroller convertible that can do this. It can also be used in conjunction with a second bassinet or car seat for newborns.

It is easy to maneuver on smooth surfaces, and handles slopes and steps well. It can be a challenge to maneuver around busy eateries and shops. It can also be difficult to fold up, especially when the seats are tucked away. It's still small and fits through most doors.

In mono mode, there's an storage bin located next to the front seats. This is ideal for shopping and other items. The main storage basket beneath the seats is large and can hold up 100 pounds. This is more than any stroller we have listed!

Uppababy Vista v2

This stroller is among the top twin strollers for newborns. It is compatible with a variety of bassinets and infant car seats (adapters are sold separately) and can be used as a double stroller right out of the box. It can even accommodate two infant car seats or bassets at the same time when you purchase the Vista Upper and Lower adapters.

In comparison to the original Vista, the V2 has added a few enhancements to make it even better. The toddler seat is half an inch higher, the footrest is more space and the canopy has an extender for the fabric that zips out, which adds extra coverage. The harness has also been modernized, as it does not need to be re-threaded. This makes it much easier to adjust.

The stroller comes with big wheels (8" in front and 11.5" in back) and a robust suspension system that lets it handle any terrain. The front wheels are rubber and are ideal for navigating rocks, gravel and cobblestones. While the rear wheels have more tread to tackle the grassy hills and sidewalks.

A child's bike can be attached to the front of the stroller. This is a great choice for parents who don't wish to use an infant car seat. If you have a child who is old enough to stand and walk, the Vista stroller can fit another child in with its piggyback board accessory.

Vista Vista is easy to use and set up. However, it takes some time to remove all the protective packaging. The instructions are simple to follow, and there's also an YouTube video to help for assistance if you require more information.

The Thule Urban Glide 3 stroller is the most recent version of this popular all terrain stroller. It's designed to appeal to families that value style, sustainability and adventure. It features exciting upgrades with a built-in knee rest and updated reclined seat that offers unbeatable comfort for children during long walks and jogs.

Cortina Together

Cortina Together is designed for families that are growing and offers parents various seating options to accommodate the needs and preferences of every child. The two seats in the double stroller have reclined backrests and canopies that are independent. They're also designed to accept one of Chicco's top-rated KeyFit or KeyFit 30 infant car seats in the front seat and rear seat (car seat sold separately) with the exclusive click-in attachment that eliminates the need for adding bars and straps, like other models that require.

A padded 3-position handle comfortably accommodates mom or dad, and a zippered rear access large basket provides ample storage space for gear. The tandem double stroller's suspension and wheels provide a smooth ride over all types of terrain, and the one-touch rear brakes that are linked and have a toe-tap activated make stopping easy.

In our Strollers & Multiples laboratory tests, Cortina Together received high scores for ease of use. This is based on the ease with which it is for you to fold and set up the stroller. It also considers how easy it is to open and close the snack tray and engage and disengage the brakes, and then lift the stroller that is folded and carry it as if it were the trunk of a car.

This model has some shortcomings. First, it's heavy. It weighs 36.6 pounds fully loaded, which puts it closer to the beast end of our metric. It also has a limited view when a car seat is mounted in the rear. The front tray release can be difficult to use, particularly after prolonged usage. However, despite these issues, we consider this to be a great stroller for your family.

Jeep Double Stroller

Jeep Destination Ultralight Side x Side Double Stroller - A lightweight, budget-friendly stroller ideal for families with 2 children. The front lock wheels swivel and allow for ease of maneuvering on flat surfaces and lock to give stability on bumpy surfaces. It also has an umbrella fold that closes in a matter of seconds, and it stands upright for easy transportation. Its aluminum frame is lightweight, and its carrying strap and handle made of foam makes it one of the most easy double strollers to lift in our tests.

This tandem stroller features independently reclining seats for maximum comfort. The large canopy provides UPF 50 protection and also comes with a peekaboo view for easy monitoring. We would prefer to have the canopy vented for more airflow. We also didn't like that the cup holder is extremely high on the frame, meaning you'll have to bend to reach it.

In our tipping test the Jeep fell over with only 39 degrees of angle, which is above average for a double stroller. It's a bit heavier however, it has more storage for the money. The handles and seats are also well-padded.

The stroller is a versatile model with three modes it can be used in: wagon (just for things) and jogger (with two 5-point safety harnesses designed for children) and car seat mode. It can fit one car seat for infants however, pediatricians suggest waiting until your child is 6 months old before jogging with them and 1 year old before taking them on rough terrain. It is available in black with a limited warranty.
