Best Twin Stroller For Newborns
A double stroller is essential if you're expecting twins or have two children of the same age. The top double strollers offer numerous ways to ride your children with side-by-side seating and a board attachment.
The Bugaboo Donkey 5 Mono is Lauren Ro's favourite stroller. It adapts to your family's needs effortlessly. It can fit two infant car seats, as well as a toddler seat. This makes it an excellent option for twins.
Bugaboo Donkey
This is the best twin stroller for families who need a stylish, double side-byside stroller. It's a bit bigger than other Bugaboo strollers, but it feels solid and built to last. It has a handlebar that can be adjusted to retract and extend easily. It also has a fantastic reach, so it is easy for my 6'1 husband to push, even when fully loaded.
Seats are spacious, and can be placed so that one child sits in front of another or so that the children face each other. They can also recline independently from each other. The canopies cover both seat fabrics If you want. They're not a lot of ventilation which makes them feel like an oven on hot days. There's no way to see your children.
One of the most unique aspects of this stroller is its capacity to adapt to your family's needs from one seat (Mono mode) to grow to a double side-by-side stroller. This is the only convertible double stroller that can do this! It can be used in conjunction with a bassinet for newborns or a car seat.
It is simple to use on smooth surfaces, and it can handle stairs and slopes with ease. The only downside is that it can be difficult to navigate in crowded shops and restaurants. It can be difficult to fold the seat back, especially if it's connected. It is still fairly small, however, and does fit through most doors easily.
There is an additional storage bin that is attached to the frame, next to the front seat in mono mode. This is useful for groceries and other supplies. The main storage basket underneath the seats is large and can accommodate up to 100 pounds, which is more than any other stroller on this list!
Uppababy Vista V2
This is among the most popular twin strollers for newly newborns. It can be used straight out of box as a double stroller, and is compatible with many infant car seats and bassets. The Vista Upper and Vista Lower adapters let you use two infant car seats simultaneously.
Compared to the original Vista, the V2 has made a few changes to make it better. The toddler seat has been raised by half an inch, the footrest is larger, and the canopy is an extra fabric extension that zips out. Additionally, the harness has been updated and doesn't require replaced, making it easier to adjust.
The stroller is fairly large wheels (8 inches in the front and 11.5'' in the back) with strong suspension, so it can easily handle any terrain. The front wheels are rubber which makes them suitable for navigating rocks, gravel and cobblestones. The rear wheels have more tread to tackle the grassy hills and sidewalks.
A child's bike can be attached to the front of the stroller. This is a great choice for parents who do not want to use a car seat. If you have a child who is ready to stand, the Vista can even fit a third kid with its piggyback ride along board.
Vista is Vista is simple to use and set up, however it does take some time to unpack all of the protective packaging. The instructions are simple to follow, and there's also a YouTube video if you need more help.

Cortina Together
Created for the growing family, Cortina Together offers parents versatile seating options that allow them to adjust to each child's unique needs and preferences. The two seats in the double stroller have reclined backrests and canopies that are independent. They're also designed to accept one of Chicco's #1-rated KeyFit or KeyFit 30 infant car seats in the front seat and rear seat (car seat sold separately) using the exclusive click-in attachment without the need for adding straps and bars, as many other models need.
A large, zipper-accessible basket in the rear offers ample storage space for the equipment. The handle is cushioned to fit dad or mom. The wheels and suspension of the tandem double stroller provide an easy ride across all terrains. The 1-touch linked rear breaks with toe-tap activated make stopping a breeze.
In our Strollers & Multiples lab tests, Cortina Together scored well in terms of ease of use. This is based on how easy it is to set up and fold the stroller and adjust the safety harness, open and close the snack tray, engage and disengage the brakes, lift and carry the folded stroller as if placing it into a trunk, and for double strollers 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 closer to the beast end of our metrics. Additionally, it has a limited view from the back seat when the car seat is fitted. In addition the front tray release can be difficult to operate, especially after long-term use. Despite these issues, we believe that this is a great stroller for your family.

The Jeep Destination Ultralight Side x Side Double Stroller is an affordable, lightweight stroller ideal for families with two children. The front swivel-lock wheels turn to maneuver on flat surfaces and ensure stability on bumpy ones making it easy to get where you'd like to go. double buggy travel system comes with an umbrella that folds down compactly and can be closed in a matter of seconds.

This side-by-side stroller offers independently reclining seats and foot rests for maximum comfort for both children. Its oversized canopy extends to offer UPF 50 sun protection. It also comes with a peekaboo view window to allow for easy monitoring. We wish the canopy was vented for extra airflow, though. We also weren't thrilled that the cup holder is extremely high on the frame, which means you'll have to bend to reach it.
In our test of tipping, the Jeep fell over with only a 39-degree angle, which is above average for a double stroller. It's heavier than the average and has more storage for the money. The seats and handle are also well-padded.
The stroller is a versatile model with three modes that include wagon (just for stuff) as well as jogger (with two 5-point safety harnesses for children) and car seat mode. It can accommodate a single car seat for infants. However, pediatricians recommend that you wait until your child is six months old to run with them.
