Standard Double Strollers

View All Products

OVERVIEW
They're big, they're bulky and they're expensive. But if you're having twins or expecting your next baby before your first is able to walk long distances (like through the mall), you're going to need one. Standard double strollers weigh anywhere from 24 to a whopping 47 pounds, but they're chock full of features, offer comfortable seating for both babes, and they get the job done.

For stability, most standard-size double strollers offer tandem seating -- one child sits in front of the other - although many tandem arrangement include stadium seating as well, giving the back child a view over the top of their sibling's head. Both seats typically recline fully, and can accommodate infant car seat carriers, making them suitable from birth through the toddler years. Most manufacturers recommend putting the baby car seat in the rear seat, giving an older sibling an unobstructed view, but be aware, this makes steering more difficult. Standard double strollers can also have side-by-side seating, but this arrangement is much larger when folded.

Most double strollers are unwieldy to steer, but they do offer large baskets, double sun canopies and parent-friendly features like cup holders, adjustable handles and shock-absorbing wheels.

Double strollers come with three- and five-point harness straps; five-point is considered safer and is preferred, especially for smaller children.

FEATURES TO CONSIDER:

  • Stadium Seating
