Choosing a Twin Stroller
This twin stroller was designed with active families in the mind. It grows with your family, from newborn to toddler. The way it is rolled is a big success with testers.
It can fit two infant car seats and bassinets. This means you don't need to buy an additional carrier. It also comes with a good amount of storage space.
Lightweight
You'll need a lightweight, easy-to-maneuver twin stroller. It can maneuver through busy streets swiftly and efficiently so you can focus on what's important: your children. A stroller that is light and easy to manage is also a great option for navigating narrow doorways and tight spaces as it lets you move through small gaps.
A lightweight stroller is smaller than a double stroller, saving the space in your trunk. It is also simpler to store. However, it's still important to ensure you have an under-seat basket that can accommodate at least 22 pounds of equipment. You might also want to think about a storage organizer that attaches directly to the handlebar.
Another aspect to consider is the distance your children are in age and which seating arrangement works best for your family. If your twins are close in age, you might prefer an inline option that allows them to sit side-by-side, and be close. If your children are in different stages of development and have a wide age gap, you might prefer a car seat that is able to accommodate both infant car seats and a convertible seat.
Some of our favorite twin strollers that are lightweight include the Kolcraft Cloud Plus, which weighs just 23 lbs (lighter than some single strollers!) and can accommodate kids up to 40 pounds per seat. The Jeep Destination Ultralight SBS Double stroller also offers a lightweight frame, telescoping handlebar and foam-filled tires that will never flatten and a fold-able design that is easy to fold.
Many parents are worried about their children's safety when it comes to riding in a double stroller, so look for a model that has multiple safety features. This could include a five-point safety harness for each seat, brakes on the rear and front as well as a foot brake, and an enormous canopy with peek-a-boo windows that offers head-to toe sun protection. It's also an excellent idea to look for stroller-friendly items, such as the child's tray or snack cup back pockets that double as drink holders, as well as an parent console that has an integrated cup holder.
Easy to Fold
When evaluating potential strollers be sure to look for models that are easy to fold and compact for storage. This can save you time when you need to get somewhere (or in a parking garage in the event of a storm) and ease the stress on your back from carrying the full stroller. A simple, one-handed fold is the best option, and a self-standing model that can stand up when folded is more appealing.
A telescoping handlebar is a further feature we love for its ease of use, and you can usually find it on more expensive models. If you are planning to travel with twins, you will need a lightweight, compact stroller that is able to be folded and put into a small trunk.
A good-sized basket is also a plus on double strollers. Some of the models that we tested had additional pockets or child trays that are located in the seatbacks. The Zoe Twin+ has a large, practical basket and is one of the lightest and most compact when folded. The UPPAbaby G-Link 2 and Delta Children LX Side by Side come with smaller but still functional baskets and also have pockets in the seatbacks.
In our tests the comfort of the ride was a major aspect. Several of the lightweight double strollers that we tested had smooth suspensions that absorbed bumps without making kids feel jostled. The best-performing model, the Summer Infant 2 Go Lite has a particularly pleasant ride and is an excellent option for infants as well as toddlers. It has two car seat carriers, and a rear seat that converts into a bassinet for babies. This makes it a fantastic choice from birth to toddlerhood.
If you're looking for a more expensive option, consider the Jeep Wrangler TrailRunner Twin. It is a spacious, comfortable pair of seats that can recline independently, and its extra-large UPF 50+ canopy provides plenty of shade and peek-through windows. The seats are cushioned and come with adjustable leg and footrests. Both are padded and have removable child tethers. The model is easy to fold with a one-handed folding system as well as an swiveling wheel at the front. It's also simpler to fold than the other two-seaters we've tested. When folded, it's among the lightest and smallest double strollers. It also has a telescoping bar that can be adjusted for the appropriate height.
Easy to carry
It is possible to find a twin stroller that has the essentials for planning a trip that is long or you need to move the kids from one side of town to the next without the need for a double stroller. These twin strollers typically have a seat or platform for the older child, and a bench or platform for the child who is younger. They can fit in the overhead bins on most aircrafts. Look for features like a cup holder and a place to store your child's snacks, as well as a canopy in case of rain.
Some of our top lightweight strollers are surprisingly tiny, like the Zoe Twin+ which is among the lightest and smallest when folded. It has a comfortable passenger seat with adjustable leg and footrests and a large UPF 50+ canopy with the ability to peek out. It also has the most secure buckles even for children of all ages.

This allows for a smoother transition from car to stroller and also helps to avoid interrupted naps on the go. This is particularly useful when you have a baby in one seat and a toddler in the other and is also ideal for families who frequently travel and need to take the car seats on and off frequently.

Suspension
