Parents of twins or other multiples might require a double stroller that can accommodate two infant car seats simultaneously. The TwinRoo+ is a tough frame stroller that fits 23 different car seat models (car seats and adapters sold separately).

The Baby Trend(r), Universal Double Snap-N-Go (r)
The Baby Trend(r), Universal Double Snap-N-Go (r) is a fantastic stroller that is compatible with the majority of infant car seats. It comes with an ample storage basket as well as a parent tray with two cup holders. The stroller is lightweight and folds easily to store it or transport it. It is one of our easiest strollers to maneuver and has a nice side-by-side design. double pram pushchair was not as efficient in our jog tests and was unable to handle more steeper curbs. The swivel front wheels have trouble with catching on obstacles.
This stroller is compatible with all major brands of infant car seats and the adapters are easy to install. The stroller only accepts one infant car seat at a time so parents of twins must find a different alternative if they plan to use their infant carseats together. The UPPAbaby Vista v2 double as well as the Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double have impressive scores for their ability to fit two infant car seats at the same time.
While the Baby Trend is easy to use and has a nice basket it falls short in our ride comfort metric. The stroller does not have shocks to cushion the vibrations and bumps of the road, which can be difficult on small passengers. The absence of reclined seats means that children will feel every bump that comes along the road. This isn't an issue as the passengers get older, but it's something to consider if your children are young toddlers or infants.
This frame stroller weighs under 40 pounds. It feels heavy with passengers and cargo. The absence of the lock for jogging makes it difficult to jog and it struggled in navigating gravel, grass and sidewalks in our tests. The BOB Revolution is a lighter alternative for jogging, weighing in at 41 lbs. It can still be a bit challenging to lift and carry but it has a handle specifically made to help you do this. The jog strollers have the advantage of having bigger wheels that provide better off-road performance. They also have a better built chassis and are constructed of durable materials that can stand up to long-term use.
The Contours(r) Options Elite V2 Double Stroller
The Contours(r) Options Elite V2 has all the features that parents appreciate: reversible seats one-hand reclining, adjustable legs rests, zippered extensions to the canopy and an adult cupholder. In addition, it comes with new great features like the height-adjustable handle as well as quilted seats. It also comes with seven different seating options that include the difficult-to-find double rear facing position, allowing children to be able to see each their friends while keeping an eye on dad and mom.
One of the best things about this stroller is that it is compatible with a variety of infant car seat brands, which gives families a range of choices and keeps them from being locked into one brand when it comes to strollers that work with baby car seats. The Options Elite is compatible with Graco infant car seats as well as Britax double car seats. It also supports the UPPAbaby Mesa or Baby Jogger City Select double seats. It even comes with an additional adapter for parents who have twins or wish to use two infant car seats.
It's not a side-byside stroller It is a single stroller and can be used in all doorways and aisles with ease. It's not as easy to maneuver as a jogging stroller however it's still a great choice for shopping trips and road excursions. It's heavier than other double strollers, but it's not too heavy to be lifted.
The seats are comfortable for children and there's a decent-sized storage basket. The canopy is large, too, and can be removed to provide some sun protection. It does not have much storage space for the parent's requirements, which can be a concern for some families.
The stroller comes with an electronic foot brake as well as a safety harness. a five point harness for each child. The front wheels can be locked to provide stability and the handles are ergonomically designed. It folds down with ease and can be repositioned when folded. Although it doesn't feature a one-hand fold like some of the other top strollers on this list, it's not a problem to do with a little practice, and the process is faster than other tandem models.
The Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double
The Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double is an excellent budget-friendly option that can grow with your family, providing car seat compatibility and reversible seating within a stylish modern stroller frame. It is simple to use and has a single-handed fold that allows for a self-stand. It's a great value given its price. However, it has an a bit more substantial feel than a lot of the competitors and smaller wheels that struggle with pushing off-road, or in tight turns and narrow doors.
This stroller can be used with two infant car seat or toddler seats sold separately. No adapters are required. The frame of the stroller can be expanded in a matter of seconds, by adding another seat. This is accomplished without the need for tools or other parts. It can also be set up in 23 different ways in the USA, to fit toddlers and infants at different heights. The second seat can be used in stroller mode to fit larger children or to support the baby in an angle that is comfortable for infant mode.
The large, oversized basket as well as the front-facing and back-accessible seat pocket enhance the functionality of this stroller. Moreover, the padded, contoured seat ensures maximum comfort for passengers. A retractable canopy protects children from the sun and the window that lets parents peek in to monitor their children.
By adding the accessory Stroller Rider Board creates a tandem for siblings to ride in tandem, or be used as an alternative to the standard toddler seat. A flex-hold cup holder holds different sizes of drinks, and the stroller folds with the toddler seat to allow easy access to storage space.
A majority of reviewers are impressed by how easily the Pivot Xpand stroller can be expanded to include an additional seat. A few have noted that it is difficult to connect an infant car seat on the included mounts, while attaching the second toddler seat is easier and quicker. Evenflo provides a video chat feature that allows customers to ask any questions or get assistance with attaching car seats. The only downside is the short warranty.
The Jeep Bravo For 2
The Bravo For 2 is a great stroller for siblings who are similar in age. It is easy-to-assemble straight from the box and, unlike other sit-and stand alternatives, it is light at less than 23 pounds. The seats each recline in multiple positions to allow your infant or toddler to rest and even have an extra footrest for older children who need it. The padding on the handle bar is in an ideal position for older children to grasp while standing, even if wearing gloves. This feature has been cited by many parents as the reason it is safer than most of its competitors.
This stroller has a padded back seat that can accommodate children up to 2 years. This allows you to keep your child rear-facing longer. This is a huge advantage for parents adhering to the #TurnAfter2 campaign which encourages children and babies to remain rear facing until they reach the age of two years old. This seat is simple to buckle and features the same five-point harness as the front seat.
Another benefit of the Bravo For 2 is that it can be used with a Chicco KeyFit or Fit2 car seat on the front. It is simple to connect your infant's carrier by lowering the front seat and snapping it into. This makes it one of the most versatile double strollers on the market. It also helps you to avoid buying a stroller that is only used once and will end in your garage or donated to a second-hand shop.
The only real drawback to this stroller is that it does not come with a tray for parents or cup holders and the storage space is somewhat limited. It is a great option for families who have one child walking the entire stroll and a child in a car seat in the in front. It is also an excellent choice for travel as it will easily fold into smaller dimensions that can be gate-checked on the plane or stored in your trunk.
