Best Twin Stroller For Newborns
A double stroller will be vital if you are expecting twins or have two children of the same age. The top double strollers provide numerous ways to ride your children, including side by side seating and an attachment for boards.
The Bugaboo Donkey 5 Mono is Lauren Ro's favorite stroller. It can be adapted to the needs of your family seamlessly. It can hold two infant car seats as well a toddler car seat which makes it an ideal choice for twins from birth.
Bugaboo Donkey
This is the most suitable twin stroller for families who want a stylish double side-by-side stroller. It's a little bigger than other Bugaboo strollers however, it is solid and built to last. It has an adjustable handlebar that retracts and extends easily. It also has a fantastic reach, making it easy for my 6'1 husband to push, even when loaded.
Seats are comfortable and can be positioned in a way that one child is behind another or so that children face each the other. They can also recline in a different way from each other. The canopies are huge and cover both seat fabrics when desired. They're not a lot of ventilation, so they can feel like an oven on hot days. There's no way to see your kids.
This stroller has a unique feature that lets it expand with you and your family. It can convert from a single seat (Mono Mode) to a double side by side stroller. This is the only double stroller convertible that can do this! It can also be used with an additional car seat or bassinet for babies.
It is easy to use on smooth surfaces, and it handles stairs and slopes with ease. The only issue is that it could be difficult to navigate in the midst of crowded restaurants and shops. It can be a bit difficult to fold the seat back, especially if it is attached. It is still fairly small, however, and is able to fit through most doors easily.
There is an extra storage bin that fits on the frame, next to the front seat in mono mode. It is great for grocery shopping and other items. The main storage basket underneath the seats is huge and can accommodate up to 100 pounds which is more than any other stroller on this list!
Uppababy Vista V2
This stroller is among the top twin strollers for newborns. It can be used straight out of the box as a double stroller and is compatible with many bassies and infant car seats. It can even accommodate two infant car seats or bassets at the same time if you purchase the Vista Upper and Lower adapters.
Compared to the original Vista, the V2 has added a few enhancements to make it even better. The toddler seat is about an inch higher, the footrest is more space and the canopy comes with an extender fabric that zips out and provides additional coverage. The harness has also been modernized since it doesn't require re-threading. This makes it easier to adjust.
The stroller comes with fairly large wheels (8'' in the front and 11.5'' in the back) with a sturdy suspension, which means it is able to easily navigate any terrain. The front wheels are rubber and are ideal for navigating gravel, rocks and cobblestones. While the rear wheels have more tread to conquer the grassy hills and sidewalks.
double buggy newborn that is great is the ability to connect a child's bike to the front of the stroller, making it an excellent option for those who aren't keen on using an infant car seat or Rumbleseat. If you have a child who's old enough to stand up then the Vista stroller can fit an additional child using its piggyback board accessory.
Vista Vista is easy to use and to set up. However, it takes some time to take off all the protective packaging. The instructions are simple to follow, and there is an YouTube video if you need help understanding the steps.

Cortina Together
Cortina Together is designed for families that are growing and offers parents a variety of seating options to accommodate the preferences and needs of each child. The two seats in the double stroller come with canopies that are reclining and backrests that are completely independent. They're also designed to take one of Chicco's top-rated KeyFit or KeyFit 30 infant car seats in the front and rear seat (car seat sold separately) using the exclusive click-in attachment without the need for add-on straps and bars, as other models that require.
A comfortable three-position handle can be used by dad or mom and a zippered rear access large basket provides ample storage space for gear. The suspension and wheels of the tandem double stroller offer a smooth ride on any terrain. The one-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 its ease of use. This is based on how easy it is to fold and set up the stroller and to adjust the safety harness as well as the snack tray, engage and disengage the brakes, lift and carry the stroller as if placing it in a trunk and for double strollers that are compatible install and remove the infant car seat.
This model has some shortcomings. First, it's heavy. It weighs 36.6 pounds when fully loaded which puts it close to the extreme end of our measurement. In addition, it has a limited view from the back seat when the car seat is in place. Lastly, the front tray release can be difficult to operate, especially after prolonged use. However, despite these issues, we believe that this is a great stroller for your family.
Jeep Double Stroller
The Jeep Destination Ultralight Side x Side Double Stroller is an affordable, lightweight stroller that is ideal for families with two children. Its front swivel lock wheels rotate to allow it to be maneuvered on flat surfaces and secure for stability on bumpy ones, making it easy to travel wherever you want to go. It comes with a compact folding umbrella that can be closed in seconds. It can also stand upright to make transporting it easier. Its aluminum frame is lightweight, and its carrying strap and handle made of foam makes it one of the most easy double strollers we have seen in our tests.
This side-by-side stroller offers independently reclining seats and foot rests to provide maximum comfort for both kids. Its large canopy can offer UPF 50 sun protection. It also comes with a peekaboo view window for easy monitoring. We wish the canopy was vented to let in more airflow however. We also weren't thrilled that the cup holder is very high on the frame, meaning you'll have to bend to reach it.
In our tipping-test, the Jeep tipped over at a 39-degree angle, which is higher than the norm for a double pram. It's also a little heavier than our top picks but it offers plenty of storage space at a reasonable cost and has ample padding in the seats as well as the handle.
This stroller is multi-functional and has three modes. It can be used as a wagon (for things) or Jogger mode (with two safety belts with five points for children), or car seat mode. It can fit one car seat for infants, however, pediatricians recommend waiting until your child is 6 months old before jogging with them, and 1 year old before letting them run on rough terrain. It comes in black and has a limited lifetime warranty. Jenni Gritters has been a journalist in the field of parenting and outdoor for more than 10 years.
