Growing Together: Discover the Best Double Stroller Options for Your Family
Parents need to consider a variety of aspects when selecting the best stroller. These include cost, family size and lifestyle. Strollers are available in a variety of types to suit any situation!
Jogging strollers come with larger, robust wheels as well as a superior suspension that can take bumps and alternate terrain in a single step. They are ideal for families who are active.
Compact Strollers
On some days, getting out of your home with a newborn in the stroller is difficult. That’s why you’ll need strollers that are light and compact, easy to fold and easy to maneuver.
These models, also referred to as umbrellas or travel strollers, offer features of full size like big sun canopy, multiple-position recline and under-carriage storage. However, they fold more compactly and easily (or collapse into a flat bag). These strollers are compatible in conjunction with infant car seats.
The GB Qbit+ All-City stroller for example, comes with an easy fold that’s about similar to an airline carry-on bag. It can be tucked away in the overhead bins on a plane–no gate checking needed! It also connects to the UPPAbaby Miniu V2 or the Nuna Pipa infant car seat through adapters. For infants, a built-in bassinet can be purchased. Another great option is the Cybex Eezy Twist 2, that allows you to connect to a car seat and then change from forward-facing to a parent-facing position based on the development of your baby.
Full Size Strollers
Full-size strollers have large wheels, a good suspension, and brakes that are easy to operate. They keep your child safe. They also have plenty of cups, storage space, and other features that make transporting your child a easy task.
Some full-size strollers include an infant seat, a bassinet or both which can be connected to the frame. This is ideal for families with several children in daycare, or babies. Some frames can accommodate two toddler seats or infant car seats, while others allow the use of mix-and-match seating options, such as a second seat or rider board.
These strollers can be costly and require a large upfront investment. Some retailers will offer massive rollbacks on these strollers during the Christmas shopping season and make them less expensive. Having a quality stroller that will grow with your child is well worth the upfront cost. For parents who have differing heights, strollers with adjustable handlebars can be a great option. They can simply push the stroller with one hand.
Travel Systems
Travel systems (also known as prams or combination strollers) are basically car seat carriers which attach to the frame of a stroller. You can use it to carry your baby in your car, then shift your baby to the stroller to walk. It is also possible to add an attachment to some models to allow your child to lay flat in front of the seat or faces either forward or back.
They are a great option for families that plan on using a car seat for an extended duration of time, as it is possible to use the stroller when your child outgrows the car seat. It is easy to operate and connect need minimal steps and complicated fasteners. Choose models that have an undercarriage large enough to be used to store gear and other items as well as washable fabrics that can take care of snack crumbs, snot and more. They’re usually smaller and lighter, which makes them easier to move around on public transportation or at airports.
Double Strollers
A potent double strollers stroller is a must-have for any family with two children. Make sure you choose a stroller that offers plenty of space for sippy cups and snacks along with toys, diapers, etc. It is also important to consider how easy it is to maneuver the stroller with two kids.
Smooth ride and sturdy structure are the other key characteristics. Make sure you choose strollers with swivel wheels that can lock, giving you unwavering stability. You should also prioritize a stroller that is lightweight but durable enough to withstand the daily wear and tear usage.
There are various double strollers. Tandem strollers have front seats and a back seat, while side-by-side strollers have seats that are arranged next to one another. Depending on the stroller’s compatibility with the stroller and its weight limit, some kids may not be able to use it in tandem or side-by-side configurations. To make sure that the stroller is a good match, check out the recommended age range of the manufacturer and specifications for each type of configuration.
