Kate says she liked the fact that this stroller is light and maneuvers well. She also liked how easily it folded, but found the magnetic buckles difficult to fasten.
Size
Size is a crucial aspect to take into consideration when selecting a double stroller that includes an infant car seat baby. Parents must be able to maneuver the stroller easily in busy sidewalks and through narrow subway gates, which implies that it should be slim and compact. Additionally the stroller should be simple to fold and compact enough to fit in the trunk of a car or a smaller vehicle for storage.
Think about a double stroller that has two seats and can accommodate infant car seat if you are planning to have twins or children that are similar in age. These options will be more expensive than other double strollers, however, they come with a longer life span and can be used until toddlerhood or even past. For example, our top pick the UPPAbaby Vista V2 Double comes with a wide variety of seating options and will accept two infant car seats or toddler seats that convert into bassinets.
We also love strollers that work with many different infant car seat brands which means that there is more models for families to choose from. The UPPAbaby vista, for example can be used with the UPPAbaby mesha and other infant car seats with adapters. It also works with the Baby Jogger Glider Board to accommodate a third standing passenger.
Some parents opt to purchase a stroller that is single-to-double and can adapt to an additional child, but we suggest buying what you need at the right time. A second kid may arrive later than you anticipated or your first child may not take to walking. Moreover, the type of seating that you can find on a double stroller sale stroller with baby car seats can have a major impact on siblings' relationships, especially for kids that are very close in age.
Weight
Double strollers weigh more than single strollers. Double strollers have two seats and carry more cargo. The weight of the stroller will be heavier. This is a factor to consider when choosing your preferred model, particularly if you plan on using it for long walks and jogs. The best models will be able to handle the extra weight with minimal shifting and swaying.
It is also important to consider the durability of double-strollers. The top strollers are constructed better and have more seating configuration options which means they last longer than their lower-cost counterparts. The joovy qool double bundle, for example, accepts car seat adapters to fit two infant carseats. It also can accommodate a second child by attaching a bassinet. This arrangement is suitable for twins, children of different ages or siblings that have gaps in age.
For those on a tight budget, they might find the Baby Trend Double Snap-N-Go an appealing option, since it is compatible with two infant car seats and can convert into a tandem (single-file) stroller. It's lightweight and compact which makes it easy to move around despite the added weight.
Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double is another budget-friendly alternative. It's similar to award-winning models which are more expensive and offers different seating configurations. The side-by-side seat design can be used to accommodate twins or children of various age groups. It can also be customized with accessories like dual canopies or twin bassinets. The stroller is also easy to fold and has a compact footprint, making it easier to fit into a trunk. The stroller is not designed to be used until children can sit up without assistance, so infants older than that will need to either be carried or placed into a car seat.
Convenience
Transferring your infant's car seat from the car into the stroller can make family outings easier and less stressful. You can easily click the seat into place and move the stroller without having to fold it with a baby and a toddler. This is a fantastic option for long journeys, especially when you don't want to unbuckle and return your child to the seat every few minutes.

The Graco Fast Action Flip, for example, offers this feature and comes with the added benefit of a bench seat for older siblings. It is not compatible with all infant car seats and may be somewhat heavy for certain families.
Some parents prefer a double-stroller that has an integrated car seat adapter which is compatible with the majority of infant car safety seats. The Evenflo Pivot Xpand Combo is a great option and comes at a price that is very reasonable for what you get. It's not the most ideal double-stroller for twins since it works with one. However, it's a good choice for a lot of families.
Other double strollers come with a more complex process for attaching and disconnecting the car seat. The UPPAbaby Vist Double, for example, requires that you push down, and then hear an audible click to confirm it's securely secured. It's a bit more difficult to use in a parking garage particularly if your children are tired or hungry. While it can grow with your family, we don't believe it's the best choice for parents with twins since you'll need to buy an additional toddler seat when your kids are old enough to use it.

She also suggests avoiding accessories that increase the weight of a stroller, such as ride-on boards or extra child seats.
