Best Twin Stroller For Newborns

A double stroller will be vital if you are expecting twins or have two children of similar ages. The best ones provide numerous ways for your children to ride such as side-by-side seating, and the ability to attach a rider's board.

Lauren Ro, a writer and strategist who writes for the blog, loves is the Bugaboo Donkey 5 Mono, that is a perfect fit as your family expands. It can hold two infant car seats as well a toddler seat, making it a great choice for twins from birth.

Bugaboo Donkey

This is the best double stroller for families looking for a stylish and attractive side-by-side double stroller. It is a bit larger than other Bugaboo strollers, but it feels solid and built to last. It has an adjustable handlebar that retracts and extends easily. It also has a fantastic reach, so it's easy for my 6'1 husband to push, even when fully loaded.

The seats are comfortable and can be placed to have one child sit on top of the other or have children facing each one. They can also recline separately from each other. The canopies cover both fabric seats should you wish to. They're not a lot of ventilation, so they can be like an oven on hot days. There is no peek-a-boo to look at your children.

This stroller features a unique feature that allows it to expand with you and your family. It can go from one seat (Mono Mode) to a double side by side stroller. It is the only convertible double stroller that can do this! It can be used with a second hand double buggy car seat or bassinet for newborns.

It is easy to navigate on smooth surfaces and is able to handle steps and slopes well. The only downside is that it can be difficult to navigate crowded shops and restaurants. It is also a little difficult to fold up, especially when seats are attached. It's still quite compact, and can be tucked away easily.

There is an additional storage bin that is attached to the frame, next to the front seat in mono mode. This is useful for groceries and other items. The main storage basket underneath the seats is massive and can accommodate up to 100 pounds, which is more than any other stroller double on this list!

Uppababy Vista V2

This stroller is one of the best twin strollers for newborns. It is compatible with a range of bassinets and infant car seats (adapters are sold separately) and can be used as a double stroller straight out of the box. The Vista Upper and Vista Lower adapters let you use two infant car seats simultaneously.

The V2 is a more refined version of the original Vista. The toddler seat is now elevated by a half inch, the footrest has been made larger, and the canopy is an extra fabric extension that zips out. The harness is also modernized since it doesn't need to be re-threaded. This makes it much easier to adjust.

The stroller comes with large wheels (8" in front and 11.5" in back) and a sturdy suspension system, which lets it navigate any terrain. The front wheels are rubber which makes them suitable for navigating gravel, rocks and cobblestones. The rear wheels have more tread to conquer grassy hills and sidewalks.

A child's bike can be connected to the front of a stroller. This is a great option for parents who don't want to use an infant car seat. If you have a child old enough to stand up, the Vista stroller can fit an additional child using its piggyback board accessory.

Vista is Vista is easy to use and set up, though it can take some time to remove all of the protective packaging. The instructions are easy to follow, and there's a YouTube video if you need assistance in understanding the instructions.

Cortina Together

Cortina Together is designed for growing families and offers parents various seating options to meet the preferences and needs of each child. The two seats in the double stroller come with reclined backrests single and double stroller canopies that are completely independent. The seats are also designed to accommodate Chicco's KeyFit or KeyFit 30, the top baby car seat in both the rear and front seat. (Car seat sold separately).

A large, zipper-access basket in the rear offers ample storage space for the gear. The handle is cushioned to accommodate mom or dad. The wheels and suspension of the tandem double stroller offer a smooth ride across any terrain. The 1-touch linked rear breaks when activated by a toe-tap, making stopping a breeze.

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, adjust the safety harness and open and close the snack tray, engage and disengage the brakes, lift and carry the folded stroller as if placing it in a trunk and for double strollers compatible install and take off an infant car seat.

There are some downsides to this model, however. First, it's heavy. It weighs 36.6 pounds when fully loaded which is on the extreme end of our metric, and is heavier than the average for this class of strollers. In addition, it is not able to see clearly in the back seat when the car seat is in place. Lastly, the front tray release can be difficult to operate, especially when used for a long time. However, despite these issues, we consider this to be a great stroller to have for your family.

Jeep Double Stroller

The Jeep Destination Ultralight Side x Side Double Stroller is an affordable, lightweight stroller that is ideal for families with two kids. The front swivel-lock wheels turn to move on flat surfaces, and secure for stability on bumpy ones, making it easy to go where you'd like to go. It comes with a compact folding umbrella that can be closed in just a few seconds. It also stands upright to make moving it easier. Its lightweight aluminum frame with foam handles and strap for carrying make it one of the most easy-to-lift double strollers that we have tested.

This stroller with a side-by-side design offers independently reclining seats and foot rests to ensure maximum comfort for both children. Its oversized canopy extends to offer UPF 50 sun protection. It comes with a peekaboo view window to allow for easy monitoring. We would like to see the canopy vented for extra airflow, however. We were not happy that the cup holder is extremely high on the frame. You'll need to bend down to reach it.

In our tipping test, the Jeep fell over at 39 degrees of angle which is higher than average for a double stroller. It's heavier than the average and has more storage for the price. The handles and seats are also well-padded.

The stroller is multi-functional and offers three modes. It can be used as a wagon (for stuff) as well as a the jogger mode (with two safety belts with five points for children), or car seat mode. It can fit a single to double buggy car seat for infants. However, pediatricians advise that you wait until your child is six months old to run with them. It is available in black and has a limited lifetime warranty. Jenni Gritters has been a parenting and outdoor journalist for over 10 years.
