Buying a Double Infant Stroller
A double stroller is a great way for parents to transport multiple children. The best models are simple to fold, carry and place in a car trunk. They also have various seating arrangements for children of various ages.
If your children are close in age, you might decide that a sit-and stand or side-by-side style is the best method to avoid sibling fights over the best seat to use. We also like options which accept two infant car seats such as the UPPAbaby v2 cheap double stroller.
Comfort
It is important that your baby and toddler are both comfortable in the stroller. Pick one with padding for the seats, a wide base, and swivelling front wheels to smooth out bumps on the road, and buckles that are simple to secure and remove.
Find a large UPF 50+ canopy to offer sun protection for both children. Another feature that is comfortable is the adjustable footrests, which let your child sit up in the back of the seat when they get tired. Some double strollers, such as the best-selling model from Safety 1st, offer this option for both children.
The number of seats in the stroller will be contingent on the weight and age of the children using it. For instance, a side-by-side stroller allows you to keep an eye on two children simultaneously, so it's perfect for twins or siblings close in age. It's wider than other configurations and isn't easy to maneuver through crowded or narrow areas.
A sit-and-stand pram allows older siblings to stand while you push a smaller child in the infant car seat. It's not the best choice for infants, but it can be beneficial for older children who can walk longer distances.
A convertible stroller is an additional option. It has multiple seating configurations and can be used as a single or double. Rebecca says that this type of stroller is a good choice for parents who plan to purchase one stroller and use it with both children. It's more expensive than the top tandem model but it will last for an extended period of time and comes with an excellent resale value, she adds.
