The Baby Trend(r), Universal Double Snap-N-Go (r)
The Baby Trend(r) Universal Double Snap-N-Go (r) is an excellent stroller that fits the majority of infant car seats. It comes with a large storage basket for storage and a tray for parents with two cup holders. The stroller is light and folds up easily for storage or transport. It's one of our strollers that is easy to maneuver and has a nice side-by-side design. double pushchair 's not very effective in our jog tests and struggles on higher curbs. The swivel wheels at the front don't seem to be able to catch obstacles.
The adapters for this stroller are simple to install and compatible with the majority of major brands. The stroller is only able to accommodate one infant car seat at a given time Parents with twins must look for a different way to use their infant car seats simultaneously. The UPPAbaby Vista v2 double as well as the Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double have excellent scores for their capacity to hold two infant car seats at the same time.
While the Baby Trend is easy to use and comes with a nice basket, it is not quite as good in our ride comfort measure. The stroller isn't equipped with shocks that are able to absorb road bumps and vibrations, which can be difficult for little passengers. Also, the lack of a seat recline means children will feel every bump on the road. It may not be a problem as passengers age but it is something to take into consideration when your children are toddlers or infants.
This frame stroller weighs just under 40 lbs. However it feels heavy when loaded with passengers and cargo. It is difficult to jog with no jog lock and it had trouble in navigating gravel, grass and sidewalks during our tests. The BOB Revolution Flex is a better option for jogging and lighter at just 41 pounds. It's not perfect, but it's difficult to lift, but there is a handle that can be used for this purpose. The jog-strollers feature larger wheels that offer better performance off-road. They also have a stronger chassis and are constructed of durable materials that can be used for a long time.
The Contours(r), Options Elite V2 double stroller
The Contours(r), Options Elite V2 includes the features parents appreciate: reversible seating one-hand recline with adjustable leg rests, and zippered extensions on both canopies. It also includes an adult cupholder. It also has some great new features, including the height-adjustable handles as well as a quilted seat. It offers seven different configurations of seating, including the difficult-to-find double-rear-facing position. This lets kids see eachother while keeping an eye on their parents.
The stroller's compatibility to multiple infant car seats is one of its best features. It provides families with more choices and prevents them from being confined to a single brand of stroller that is compatible with baby car seats. The Options Elite is compatible with Graco infant car seats as well as Britax double car seats. It also accepts the UPPAbaby Mesa or Baby Jogger City Select double seats.

It weighs a bit more than other double strollers, however it's not too heavy for most petite women to lift and maneuver.
The seats are comfortable for children and there's a decent-sized storage basket. The canopy is also large and can be removed to provide more sun protection. It's not a lot of storage space for parents' necessities, which may be a problem for certain families.

The front wheels can be locked for extra stability and the ergonomic handles provide a comfortable grip. It's easy to fold and rises up when folded. While it doesn't have a one-hand fold, like others of the top strollers on this list it's not too difficult to accomplish with a bit of practice and it's quicker than some other tandem models.
The Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double
The Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double is a budget-friendly model that can grow with your family, providing car seat compatibility and reversible seating in an elegant modern stroller frame. This stroller is easy to use and features a single-handed fold that can be used to create self-standing. It's a good value given its price. It has a firmer feel than the competitors, and smaller wheels which make it difficult to push off the road, in tight turns, or through narrow doors.

By adding a second seat, you can expand the stroller frame in minutes without tools or other components, and it can be used in a variety of configurations in the USA to accommodate toddler and infant seats at different heights in both parent-facing or forward-facing settings. The second seat can also be used to secure baby at a comfortable angle in infant mode, or for older kids, in stroller mode with three reclining positions and a footrest that is adjustable in five positions.
A large, spacious storage basket, as well as back and front-accessible seat pockets add to this stroller's utility and the cushioned, contoured seat provides maximum comfort for passengers. A canopy that can be extended keeps children shielded from the sun's rays, and an open window allows parents to keep an eye on their little ones.
Adding the accessory Stroller Rider Board creates a tandem for siblings to ride together, or can be utilized as an alternative to the standard toddler seat. The flex-hold cupholder is able to accommodate a variety of drinks, and the stroller is easily foldable with the toddler seat connected, making it simple to access storage space.
A majority of reviewers are impressed by the ease with which the Pivot Xpand stroller can be extended to include a second seat. Some reviewers have noted that the attachment of an infant car seat to the mounts integrated in the stroller can be a challenge, however attaching the second toddler's car seat is much more simple and quick. Evenflo offers a video chat feature that allows customers to ask questions or receive assistance with mounting car seats. The only downside is the relatively short warranty.
The Jeep Bravo For 2
The Bravo For 2 is an excellent stroller that is ideal for siblings with similar age. It's easy to assemble right out of the package and, unlike other sit-and stand alternatives, it is light at just 23 pounds. The seats can recline in multiple positions to allow your infant or toddler to sleep and there is even an extra footrest for older children who need it. The padded handlebar is placed in a way that older children can grasp it even when wearing mittens. This feature has been mentioned by many parents as a reason for why it is more secure than many of its rivals.
This stroller has a padded back seat that can hold children up to 2 years. This allows you to keep your child rear-facing longer. This is a major advantage for parents adhering to the #TurnAfter2 campaign which encourages infants and children to be rear-facing until they reach two years of age. This seat is simple to buckle and has the same five-point harness found on the front seat.
Another benefit of the Bravo For 2 is that it can accept an Chicco KeyFit and Fit2 car seat on the front. You simply push down the front seat, snap in your infant carrier, and listen for the click that lets you know it is secure. This feature alone makes it one of the most adaptable double strollers out there and lets you avoid spending money on a stroller that is only used once that could end up in your garage or given to your local secondhand store.
The stroller has one problem: it does not come with cup holders or a tray for parents. The storage space is also restricted. It's a great option for families with one child walking the entire stroll and another in a car seat in the front. It's an excellent choice to travel with, since it folds easily into a compact size that can be gate-checked into an airplane or tucked away in your trunk.
