Confortable

The most important aspect of a stroller to think about is its ease of use. Look for an area that is big enough for both children and has reclining positions.

The majority of parents have a small amount of storage space, so ensure that the stroller fits in your trunk or closet before you buy it. Also, you should measure the width of all doors that you'll need to pass through with the stroller in its open. The standard doorways are between 30 to 36 inches wide. However there are some that are narrower.
