Buying Guide For Double to single Buggy Strollers
If you have two children who are close in age, a double stroller can be an invaluable investment. These narrow tandem buggies as well as versatile side-by-side buggies allow you to keep both children in sight while you shop, parks, and whatever else life throws at you.
Comfort
When shopping for a double stroller, comfort is an important aspect to take into consideration. This includes both the seating arrangements and the overall dimensions of the stroller which impacts accessibility and storage. Katie Billingsley, a child expert in child development from Fourth Trimester Postnatal Retreat, says parents should examine the stroller's weight as well as folded dimensions. "They should also look at the seat recline options and age ranges to ensure a perfect fit for their family."
A good double stroller will be durable enough to travel on all surfaces without difficulty, from suburban sidewalks to park trails and from infant car seats to toddler booster seats. It should have a variety of seating options for children of different stages of development, as well as comfort features such as a peek-a-boo window and adjustable canopy that protect children from the sun or rain.
For a majority of families, a double stroller is likely to be used from birth and into the teen years, so it's essential to think about the seating options. "There are two main categories--in-line with one seat behind the other, and side-byside with seats adjacent to each other," Billingsley explains. "Some parents prefer an in-line option for its sleek look and versatility, whereas others prefer a wagon-style double stroller to maximize space for bulky items or groceries."
Although some models may have different recline options - with one seat nearly flat while the other one remains upright--this type of disparity is more common in in-line models. Billingsley recommends selecting a product with both a near flat recline and leg rest adjustment for both seats. This will ensure that both children can lay down comfortably.
She also suggests that parents look for strollers that have storage compartments to allow them to easily access their snacks, personal items and toys in motion. She also recommends that it's helpful to find a stroller which has a parent console, or organizer bag that is attached to the handlebars. This will help parents keep essentials close in their reach.
A few of the top-rated double strollers can be extended, allowing parents the flexibility to customize the setup based on their family's needs. For instance, the Mockingbird Expandable is a highly-rated double stroller that can be used with just a single seat from birth and later converted to tandem (with the addition of a second seat and bassinet) as the child gets older.
Safety
Double strollers have to be able to support the weight of two passengers--plus any additional cargo. Strollers need to be able to move and push, especially when on rough terrain and in tight spaces. The best strollers feature ergonomic handlebars that can be adjusted in height to ensure that parents maintain a good posture when pushing them. A no-rethread harness which makes the adjustment of seat belts quicker and easier, is another nice feature to look for. A sturdy brake system and wheels that glide over any surface are essential safety features.
Some parents prefer an arrangement that allows both children to be able to see each other during family outings. This arrangement can prevent siblings fighting over who is allowed to sit in which spot but it's not a guarantee. If the seats are different heights, a child could punch or kick another during a walk if the seats are at different levels.
A tandem-style stroller is a great option for parents with twins or siblings that are close in age. It allows them to observe both children at the same time. These double strollers can be more spacious, and may not be able to fit through some interior doors. For maximum flexibility, think about a single-to-double stroller which can switch from a single stroller to a tandem in different ways, like the renowned CYBEX Gazelle S. These models are able to accommodate a broad range of configurations and permit you to insert infant car seats or cot attachments, depending on your requirements.
If you opt for a side-byside or tandem-style stroller, make sure the product is certified by JPMA to meet stringent safety standards. Pay attention to the maximum weight limit for each seat. Exceeding these limits could cause frame fatigue or other problems.
While it's easy to concentrate on the many bells and whistles of the latest stroller, it's crucial to remember that a stroller is an infant carrier that is used for extended periods of time. It must be easy to clean and maintain as well as comfortable for both of the passengers. It should also have a an easy-to-use, familiar design that allows the person pushing it to move it easily.
Easy of Use
A double stroller must be easy to maneuver on various types of terrains for families always on the move. Strollers that have features like windows that can be opened and closed, adjustable canopy and reliable brake systems are vital to ensure the safety of your children. But there are also other factors that make them more convenient to use. For instance, a stroller must be small enough to fit in the trunk of your car while still offering ample storage space for food items and other things. It is also essential to include thoughtful touches, such as a cup holder for one parent as well as consoles for parents and snacks on trays. These can make traveling with two kids much easier.
During our testing we evaluated each stroller based on its performance on various terrains, as well as its ability to maneuver through tight spaces. We also looked at how simple it was to fold the stroller and then unfold it in a timely manner, and if a specific feature improved the overall functionality. For instance a stroller that has a no-rethread harness makes adjusting the seat belts quick and simple. This is a major benefit for parents who are constantly moving around, since it does away with the need to rethread their harness.
The UPPAbaby Vista v2 double buggy for twins was a top performer in this measure, since it offered an impressive range of seating options and accessories to help accommodate growing families. The double-stroller that looks like a wagon expands to accommodate two seats, a bassinet or even a toddler's riding board. This is perfect for families that plan to spend long hours traveling with several children of different ages. It also glides smoothly over pavement, cobblestones and ballfields--and can be folded flat for simple storage in a closet or trunk. Our test subject Kerry was impressed by the simple, intuitive nature of this stroller's design. The clever packaging, clearly marked sections and user's manual made it easy to put this stroller together.
Stores
A double stroller has the potential to hold twice as much than a single stroller, so look for ample storage space. You want a stroller with enough storage space to hold the essentials of both children and parents including bottles, toys, snacks, and diapers. Find baskets and pockets under the seats. Also, consider a stroller that has an expandable cargo space to accommodate bulky items such as diaper bags and lunchbags.
A quality double stroller should have the ability to adapt as your family expands. For instance, some models include a bassinet attachment that can accommodate newborns, while others have child seats that can expand with your kids until they're ready to switch to riding on the back of the stroller, Billingsley says. Some double strollers allow older siblings to join in the fun with the rider board.
You'll find a wide variety of double strollers in the market, from sleek, high-performance models that can handle rough terrain to budget-friendly models more suited for daily use. As you shop, read reviews from other users and the opinions of families just like yours to get a better sense of what you can expect from the double stroller you choose.
Double strollers are available in three styles: tandem, side-by-side and wagon style. Side-by-side double strollers offer the most flexibility and are perfect for twins or children similar in age, Billingsley explains. Tandem double strollers, on contrary, have two seats that are arranged close to each other and facing in opposite directions. This is a good option for kids of the same age, or for siblings who like to interact with one another. Tandem strollers are more difficult to maneuver through tight spaces, and less likely to fit into doorways.
Check out this top pick by Safety 1st if you prefer a wagon-style double stroller. This budget-friendly model was highly praised by our testers for its multiple seating configurations. It can be used with two infant car seats, or one child in a convertible toddler chair. Our experts also appreciated the soft memory foam seats, 50+ SPF canopy, and foam-filled tires that never get flat. When it's time to fold, this model only requires a few tugs on the straps underneath each seat (under the seats where kids sit) to fold.
