Best Twin Stroller For Newborns
If you're expecting twins, or have two children who are similar in age the double stroller is a must. The best double strollers offer numerous ways to ride your children including side by side seating and an attachment for boards.
Lauren Ro, a writer and strategist, has a favorite is the Bugaboo Donkey 5 Mono, which adapts seamlessly as your family expands. It can accommodate two infant car seats and an infant seat which makes it a great option for twins as young as.
Bugaboo Donkey
This is the most suitable twin stroller for families that need a stylish, double side-byside stroller. It's a bit bigger than other Bugaboo strollers, but it feels solid and built to last. It comes with a handlebar that can be adjusted to retract and extend easily. It has a long reach, so my husband who is 6'1" is able to easily push it, even when it is full of weight.
Seats are large and can be set up so that one child sits on top of the other or so that children are facing each other. They can also recline independently from one another. The canopies cover both fabric seats If you want. But they don't have much ventilation so they can be like a tiny oven on hot days. There's no peek-a-boo window to look at your children.
This stroller has an unique feature that lets it expand with your family. It can be converted from one seat (Mono Mode) to the double side by side stroller. This is the only double stroller convertible that can do this. It can be used in conjunction with a bassinet for newborns or a car seat.
It is simple to use on smooth surfaces, and it handles stairs and slopes well. It isn't easy to maneuver around busy eateries and shops. It is also a little difficult to fold, especially when seats are connected. It's still pretty small, however, 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. It is great for grocery shopping and other supplies. The main storage basket underneath the seats is large and can hold up 100 pounds. This is more than any other stroller we have listed!
Uppababy Vista v2
This is one of the most popular twin strollers for newly babies. It can be used right out of the box as a double stroller, and is compatible with many infant car seats and bassets. The Vista Upper and Vista Lower adapters allow you to use two infant car seats simultaneously.
The V2 is a more refined version of the original Vista. The toddler seat is now raised by half an inch, the footrest has been made bigger and the canopy comes with an extra fabric extension that zips out. The harness is also modernized in that it does not require re-threading. This makes it easier to adjust.
The stroller comes with large wheels (8" in front and 11.5" in the back) and a robust suspension system that can take on any terrain. The front wheels are rubber which makes them suitable for navigating rocks, gravel and cobblestones, while the rear wheels have more tread to tackle paths and grassy hills.
Another excellent feature is the possibility to attach a child's bike to the front of the stroller, making it a handy option for those who don't want to use an infant car seat or Rumbleseat. If you have an older child who is able to stand in the Vista, the Vista can accommodate the third child using its piggyback ride along board accessory.
Vista is a simple device to use. Vista is easy to use and to set up. It does take some time to get rid of the protective packaging. The instructions are simple to follow, and there is a YouTube video to help if you require help understanding the instructions.

The Thule Urban Glide 3 stroller is the most recent version of this popular all terrain stroller. It's designed to appeal to families who are looking for style, sustainability and adventure. It features exciting improvements including a built-in feet rest and a reclining seat, which promises unbeatable comfort for children during long walks and jogs. Its sleek and agile design has been upgraded to improve its maneuverability.
It's extremely light, which makes it easy to push and easy to accelerate when you're hitting the open road.

Cortina Together
Cortina Together is designed for families that are growing and offers parents various seating options to meet the preferences and needs of each child. The double stroller's two standard seats have reclining backrests and independent canopies. They're also designed to take one of Chicco's top-rated KeyFit or KeyFit 30 infant car seats in the front seat and rear seat (car seat sold separately) with the exclusive click-in attachment without the need for adding straps or bars, which other models that require.
A comfortable 3-position handle can be used by dad or mom, and a rear zipper access large basket provides ample storage space for all of your gear. The wheels and suspension of the tandem double stroller ensure an easy ride across all terrains. The 1-touch linked rear breaks when activated by a toe-tap, making stopping easy.
In our Strollers & Multiples laboratory tests, Cortina Together received high scores for ease of use. This metric is based on how easy it is to set up and fold the stroller, adjust the safety harness and open and close the snack tray, disengage and engage the brakes, and lift and carry the folded stroller as if placing it in a trunk and for double strollers compatible install and take off the infant car seat.
We did discover some flaws to this model, however. First, it's heavy. It weighs 36.6 pounds when fully loaded and is closer to the extreme side of our metric than the average for this category of strollers. It also has limited visibility when a car-seat is installed in the back. Additionally, the front tray release is sometimes difficult to operate, especially after long-term use. Despite these issues we still think that this is an excellent stroller for your family.
Jeep Double Stroller
Jeep Destination Ultralight Side x Side Double Stroller - A lightweight, budget-friendly stroller that is ideal for families with two children. Its lock wheels on the front rotate for ease of maneuvering on flat surfaces, and lock to provide stability on bumpy surfaces. It has an umbrella that folds compactly and can be closed in a matter of seconds. It can also stand upright to make transporting it easier. Its lightweight aluminum frame, foam handle and carrying strap makes it one of the most easy double strollers to lift in our tests.
This stroller has independently reclining seats and foot rests for the best comfort for both children. Its canopy is large and offers UPF 50 protection and also comes with a peekaboo view for easy monitoring. We'd like to see the canopy vented to let in more airflow though. We didn't like the fact that the cup holder is very high up on the frame. You'll have to bend down in order to reach it.
In our test of tipping, the Jeep fell over with only a 39-degree angle, which is above average for a double stroller. It's also heavier than our top picks, but it offers plenty of storage space for its price and comes with ample padding in the seats and handle.
The stroller is a versatile model with three modes it can be used in: wagon (just for stuff) and Jogger (with two 5-point safety harnesses for children) and car seat mode. It can be used with an car seat for infants. 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 lifetime warranty. Jenni Gritters has been a journalist and parent for more than a decade.
