Best Twin Stroller For Newborns
A double stroller will be vital if you are expecting twins or have two children of similar ages. The top double strollers offer numerous ways to ride your children, including side by side seating and a board attachment.
Lauren Ro, a writer and strategist, has a favorite is the Bugaboo Donkey 5 Mono, which is easily adapted as your family expands. It can fit two infant car seats as well a toddler seat which makes it a great option for twins as young as.
Bugaboo Donkey
This is the best double stroller for families who are looking for a stylish, side-by-side double stroller. It's a larger than the other Bugaboo models, but it feels sturdy and built to last. It comes with a handlebar that can be adjusted to extend and retract easily. It has a good reach so my husband, who is 6'1", can easily push it when it is full of weight.
Seats are spacious, and can be set up in a way that one child is in front of another or so that the children are facing each the other. They can also recline separately from each other. The canopies cover both seat fabrics should you wish to. They're not very ventilated which makes them feel like an oven on hot days. There's no peek-a-boo window to see your children.
This stroller has an exclusive feature that lets it grow with your family. It can convert from one seat (Mono Mode) to the double side by side stroller. This is the only double stroller convertible to do this. It can be used with the bassinet for infants or a car seat.
It is easy to maneuver on smooth surfaces and can handle slopes and steps with ease. The only downside is that it can be difficult to navigate the midst of crowded restaurants and shops. It is difficult to fold the seat back, especially if it is connected. It's still quite compact though, and it does fit through most doors easily.
There is an extra storage bin that can be tucked away on the frame, next to the front seat in mono mode. This is ideal for groceries and other supplies. The main storage basket under the seats is large and can hold up 100 pounds. This is more than any other stroller we have listed!
Uppababy Vista V2
This stroller is one of the top twin strollers for newborns. It can be used right out of box as a double stroller, and is compatible with numerous bassies and infant car seats. The Vista Upper and Vista Lower adapters let you use two infant car seats at once.
The V2 is an improved version of the original Vista. The toddler seat is about an inch taller, the footrest has more space and the canopy is equipped with an extender for the fabric that zips out, which adds extra coverage. The harness has also been modernized, as it does not require re-threading. This makes it easier to adjust.
The stroller is fairly large wheels (8 inches in the front and 11.5 inches in the back) with a sturdy suspension, which means it is able to handle all kinds of terrain. The front wheels are made of rubber, which makes them ideal for navigating through rocks, gravel and cobblestones, while the rear wheels are more grippy to handle paths and grassy hills.
Another great feature is the ability to attach a child's bike to the front of the stroller, which can be an ideal option for parents who aren't keen on using an infant car seat or Rumbleseat. If you have a child who is ready to stand, the Vista can also accommodate a third kid with its piggyback ride along board.
Vista Vista is easy to use and set up. It does take some time to take off all the protective packaging. The instructions are easy to follow and there is also a YouTube video available for assistance if you require more information.
Thule Urban Glide 3
The Thule Urban Glide 3 is the most recent version of the popular all-terrain stroller and it's designed to appeal to modern families who value style, sustainability and adventure. It's got exciting new features, including a built-in leg rest and a new reclined seat that provides unbeatable comfort for children who take long walks and jogs. Its sleek and agile design has also been enhanced for improved maneuverability.

It's able to climb kerbs and turn in tight spaces, like city streets. It's easy to navigate narrow sidewalks and overcrowded parks.
The new Urban Glide 3 is a superior jogger that offers parents a great deal of comfort and convenience. The huge canopy offers great sun protection, has a convenient peekaboo and a top-quality harness system, and an integrated handbrake that is perfectly tuned. It has plenty of storage space, including pockets inside the seat and a massive cargo bag that can hold up to 15 pounds.

It also has car seat adapters, meaning that you can use the infant carrier of your child. It also comes with a one-handed folding system to help you transport it or store. It's also a green option, as it uses dyed solution in its black color choices.
Cortina Together
Created for the growing family, Cortina Together offers parents versatile seating options that let them adjust to each child's individual needs and preferences. The double stroller's standard stroller seats feature reclining backrests and independent canopy. The seats are also designed to accept Chicco's KeyFit or KeyFit 30, the #1 rated infant car seat, in both the rear and front seat. (Car seat sold separately).
A large, zipper-accessible basket in the rear offers ample storage space for your equipment. The handle is padded to allow for dad or mom. lightweight double pushchair Push Chairs And Prams and wheels ensure a smooth ride on all terrains, while the 1-touch rear brakes that are linked and have a toe-tap activation make stopping easy.
In our Strollers & Multiples lab tests, Cortina Together scored well in terms of ease of use. This is based on how easy it is to fold and set up the stroller. It also includes how easy it is for you to open and close the snack tray and engage and disengage the brakes, lift the folded stroller and carry it as if it were an actual trunk.
There are some downsides to this model, though. First, it's heavy. It weighs 36.6 pounds when fully loaded which puts it close to the top of our measurement. It also is not able to see clearly in the back seat when the car seat is fitted. Additionally, the front tray release is sometimes difficult to operate, particularly after long-term use. However, despite these issues, we still think this is a great double stroller that will be able to keep up with your family for years to come.
Jeep Double Stroller
The Jeep Destination Ultralight Side x Side Double Stroller is a lightweight, affordable stroller that's perfect for families with two children. Its lock wheels on the front rotate for ease of maneuvering on flat surfaces and lock to give stability on bumpy surfaces. It also comes with an umbrella fold that can be closed in a matter of seconds, and it stands upright to make it easy to transport. Its aluminum frame that is lightweight, carrying strap and handle made of foam makes it one of the most easy double strollers to lift in our tests.
This side-by-side stroller offers independently reclining seats and foot rests to ensure maximum comfort for both kids. Its large canopy can provide UPF 50 sun protection. It has a peekaboo window that allows for easy monitoring. We would like to see the canopy ventilated to allow for more airflow, though. We were not happy the fact that the cup holder sits extremely high on the frame. You'll have to bend down to reach it.
In our tipping-test it was found that the Jeep was able to tip over at a 39-degree angle, which is more than the norm for the double pram. It's also heavier than our top picks however, it has an adequate amount of storage space for the price and comes with a decent amount of padding on the seats and handle.
This versatile stroller has three modes it can be used in: wagon (just to store things) as well as Jogger (with two 5-point safety harnesses designed for children) and car seat mode. It can accommodate a single car seat for an infant. However, pediatricians advise that you wait until your child is six months old before allowing them to run with them. It is available in black and comes with a limited warranty. Jenni Gritters has been a parenting and outdoor journalist for more than a decade.
