Buying a Twin Stroller With Car Seats

You could choose an ultra-light frame that can accommodate two infant car seats in the early days of your baby. Some of the top options include the UPPAbaby Vista V2 Double or Joovy TwinRoo+.

This model allows the car seat carriers to be facing either same or opposite directions and also has a huge storage bin that is accessible without having to remove the infant carriers. It also fits through most doors.

Folding is easy

The UPPAbaby vista V2 is a large gorgeous twin stroller. It can carry two car seats for infants when fitted with the appropriate adapters (car-seat adapters are sold separately). It glides and pushes easily while turning and spinning as a single-seat stroller. It features adjustable footrests and legrests as well as a large UPF 50+ canopy, a peekaboo windows, and padded 5-point safety harnesses. You can also use the included toddler seat, or you can add the RumbleSeat that is a bassinet-like seat for infants and small children. The large storage basket offers plenty of space to store all your belongings. It also has four cup holders, which is a place to keep your phone or purse.

It can be difficult to fold, particularly when you hold the handlebar with one hand while holding the seat for your child in the other. And you'll need to disconnect the rear seat from the base when you want to fold it down, a process that takes longer than other double strollers that we have test. The company has updated its Vista stroller to work with the new car seat adapters. The latest version (launched in April 2023) is compatible with adapters that were originally used and the updated ones. It can even be folded with two adapters that can be connected at once.

The Joovy TwinRoo+ is our preferred twin stroller frame that fits infant car seats. It can be used with 23 different car seat models and can carry both babies in their infant carriers side-by side. It is a popular choice among parents who have small cars. The clever design minimizes the overall length so that it can fit better into some trunks. The seats are comfortable and padded and can be reclined to various positions by pressing a button. The buckles were among the most simple to secure and remove in our tests.

The only downside to the TwinRoo+ is that its bench seat is designed for a child who's at minimum 2 1/2 years old, so it's not ideal for twins or siblings close in age. It's still a great choice for families who wish to exercise and the robust construction means that it won't deteriorate as fast as other tandems.

Wheel Suspension

The wheel suspension on a twin stroller side by side stroller that has car seats makes it more comfortable for kids. This is especially true when you're navigating bumps or taking rough terrain during your walks. Strollers that have suspension usually come with larger wheels and shocks. The smoother a stroller rides the more shocks it comes with.

In addition to being easy to steer, good wheel suspension also makes a twin stroller that has car seats more robust. It will make it last longer and is ideal if you intend to use it with multiple children or over a long time.

One of the best twin strollers that come with car seats for infants has great wheel suspension and is a model that's been around since a while: the Baby Trend Snap-N-Go Double. It comes with many features parents love, such as two cup holders, an integrated parent console with cup holder and a large storage basket. It has a height adjustable handle that is ideal for taller parents.

Chicco BravoFor2 is another popular option for twins with infant car seats. It is a sit-and-stand stroller that can be used with one infant car seat in the front or as a twin stroller. It is a very spacious stroller that folds down to a small size. It also comes with a few nice touches that we like such as magnetic crotch straps that can be closed and opened with just one hand.

It also comes with a five-point safety harness to keep your children safe in the case of an accident. This is something that is not always on strollers, but is an essential feature for families with infants or toddlers.

Another top choice for twin strollers with car seats is the Contours Options Elite V2. It has all of the wonderful features we like such as reversible seats, one-hand recline, compression padding on both seats, adjustable leg rests, zippered extensions on both canopies and extra-large storage. It also features height-adjustable handle and a redesigned seat to allow for easier reversing of seats on the move.

Canopy

A canopy will protect your children from the sun and rain. Some models have extra features, such as the ability to peek behind or adjust the handles. One of our most popular choices that we recommend, the BravoFor2 is equipped with an adjustable front seat that buckles at the shoulder and waist--making it easy for a single caregiver to take the kids both out. Its bench seat is made to hold a child who's at least 2 1/2 years older, which means it's not the best choice for twins or children who are younger. We liked that the stroller folds up into a compact size and comes with a handle on both sides to help carry it to the car.

Some parents prefer a double to single buggy stroller that can be used side-by-side because it is less likely to result in sibling fights. These strollers let you see both children at once, making it easy for a parent to supervise and talk with them. On the downside, side-by-side strollers are typically heavier and longer than single strollers.

If you're looking for a lightweight and affordable option, the Baby Trend Double Snap-N'-Go is a highly-rated and budget-friendly option. It can accommodate two infant car seats, and the more recent version allows the seats to be positioned in any direction. We found the new model to be smaller than the previous model, however it weighs a bit more and is a bit longer than the Joovy TwinRoo+.

For parents who want to run in tandem, our top-rated twin jogger is the Jeep-branded Urban Glide 3. This stroller can accommodate one car seat at any given time. It can also be used with 23 different car seat brands via the click-in-adapter, despite the fact that it does not have an infant carrier integrated. It's a sturdy, well-made stroller, which can carry heavy loads without stress. We also liked the way the handles can be adjusted to your height.

If you have two children with the same age, you may want a sit-and-stand model like the Joovy Twin Roo+. It can be used with two infant car seats or a single toddler seat. It also offers a standing platform that allows older kids to stand on. It's a bit more expensive than our budget stroller, however, it's manufactured by a small family-owned company with excellent customer service.

Seating

If you're planning on using car seats for infant twins the stroller that supports them will be essential. Our top-scoring strollers work with the most popular car seat brands. The UPPAbaby Vista v2 Double stroller can accommodate two car seats. The Joovy Twin Roo+ can accommodate a single car seat, as well as the bassinet. We prefer strollers that can work with a variety of infant car seat brands, as it allows you to browse for a wide range of prices without being locked into one particular brand.

It's also important to decide whether you'd prefer a side by side or tandem stroller. A twin stroller that has a side-by-side configuration is more traditional and easy to maneuver, especially in tight spaces and over curbs. A tandem stroller on the other hand is more unstable and requires more room between the seats. The different heights of the seats could also lead to a fight between siblings.

Fortunately, we've found that there are many strollers double for families with twins who are infants or children who are the same age. The Baby Trend Sit N' Stand double pushchair from birth stroller, for instance, is a highly rated option that is compatible with car seats. Parents can move their children from the vehicle to the double stroller in comfort.

The front and rear baskets of the stroller are large. These baskets are great to store all of your essentials, including diaper bags, extra clothes and backpacks. Plus, the front storage area has a designated compartment for your phone and keys. The baskets come with mesh sides to prevent items from falling out, meaning you don't have to search for them.

Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double is another option that is budget-friendly. It offers a similar level of versatility as some of our award-winning strollers. Its seats can be converted into two toddler seats, or modified bassinets. They can be combined with two infant car seats. This makes it a great choice for twins, from the time of birth to early childhood.
