Seeing double these days? If you’re transporting two—whether you’ve got twins or children close in age—you need a double stroller. Trust us, a two-seater makes life miles easier for parents with more than one stroller-age child.

If you’ve already started your search for the best double stroller, one thing is probably clear: They’re not all the same. They range from lightweight to heavy duty, side-by-side to tandem, no frills to fully decked out. Some are great for twins, others are made for one newborn and one toddler. Suffice it to say, the options (as with all baby gear!) are overwhelming. Luckily, we’re here to help. We’ve taken the guesswork—and the online sleuthing—out of the selection process. Using the editorial team’s collective years of experience, as well as feedback from real parents just like you, we’ve put leading double strollers to the test. Below, find the best double strollers on the market that accommodate all sorts of families, budgets and needs. All that’s left to do is pick the right one for you, and get rolling!

What to Consider When Choosing a Double Stroller

Before you snap up the snazziest looking double stroller on the market, it’s important to take inventory of what you specifically need. Finding the best double stroller for your family depends on several different factors; here’s what to consider to help make your decision.

  • Children’s ages. Will you be pushing around two newborns? A toddler and a baby? How about an older child who might need to rest their legs every once in a while? The ages of your little ones will play a large role in figuring out the best double stroller for your family. So pay attention to weight limits, car seat compatibility, reclining seats and standing boards.
  • Stroller size. Double strollers get a bad rap for being clunky and unwieldy, but happily, there are several options out there that make carting around multiple children as streamlined as possible. That said, you still want to consider the width and weight of the stroller you select—and make sure it fits into the trunk of your car.
  • Lifestyle. Do you travel a lot? Live in a city? Run a lot of errands or plan on jogging with your stroller? These are all things to take into account before selecting the best double stroller for you. Think about the primary situations you’ll use it in before you make a decision.
  • Functionality. Life is challenging enough with two little ones on board, so the best double stroller should be easy to push, easy to fold and easy to lift.
  • Budget. Double strollers are often an investment, and it’s important to determine how much you’re willing to spend before starting your search. Think about how long and how often you’ll be using it to help determine how much you’re willing to fork out for a double stroller.

The Best Double Strollers

Once you’ve separated your wants from your needs, you’re ready to shop. Here find our shortlist of the best double strollers—from joggers to umbrella strollers to side-by-side options and more. One thing they all have in common? Each is an expert at pulling double duty!

Overall best double stroller

What We Love
  • Compact fold
  • One-handed steering
  • Streamlined design
Things To Consider
  • High price point

Pegged as the top double stroller in this year’s Best of The Bump stroller roundup, the Baby Jogger City Mini GT2 is a tried and tested choice. The cleverly designed side-by-side double stroller has padded seats that recline to an almost flat position, so your kids can snooze on the go. Better yet, they’re guaranteed a smooth ride as it glides over any terrain thanks to air-filled rubber tires equipped with all-wheel suspension. And while some double strollers are bulky or difficult to maneuver, this model has one-handed steering and fits through standard-size doorways. In fact, our product tester remarked upon the “precise” steering and said that “the stroller is very easy to push around curbs and sharp turns.” It also offers a compact fold and one-handed opening mechanism, which is a must for folks with their hands full. Parents—including our product tester—love the adjustable handle that lets you push at the right height for you or your partner. And another feature that caught our eye was the hand-operated parking brake that helps you slow your roll or stop quickly. It comes with two seats that hold up to 50 pounds each but is car seat compatible, meaning it can accommodate an infant and a toddler at the same time.

Dimensions (open): 40.7" (L) x 29.3" (W) x 42.3" (H) | Dimensions (folded): 29.3" (L) x 14.8" (W) x 31.8" (H) | Weight: 36.5 lbs. | Capacity: 50 lbs. per seat

“It is a great option for twins in my case, or a toddler and younger baby. It is very easy to use, looks sleek and also lays flat (I love this feature) for babies to sleep should they need to take an extended nap in their stroller.”

Best double umbrella stroller

UPPAbaby G-Link 2

What We Love
  • Lightweight
  • Carry handle
  • Reclining side-by-side seats
Things To Consider
  • Not suitable for infants under 3 months

Umbrella strollers tend to be smaller and lighter than regular models, making them a great fuss-free travel option. Despite the (many) benefits umbrella strollers can be finicky, but the UPPAbaby G-Link 2 has worked out all the kinks. An easy, one-handed fold (no feet necessary); two large UPF50+ canopies and independently reclining seats are just some of the features that set this double umbrella stroller above the rest. Plus, the narrow frame won’t hog the sidewalk and fits through standard doorways. And, as with all UPPAbaby strollers, its storage is next-level—thanks to the large, easy-access basket and storage pockets found on the back of each seat.

Dimensions (open): 27.5" (L) x 28.5" (W) x 42" (H) | Dimensions (folded): 40" (L) x 20" (W) x 14.5" (H) | Weight: 22.3 lbs. | Capacity: 55 lbs. per seat

Best single to double stroller

What We Love
  • Multiple configurations
  • Reclining tandem seat
  • Adjustable handlebar height
Things To Consider
  • High price point
  • Bulky base

Searching for a stroller that grows with your family? Look no further than the Silver Cross Wave. It’s ready to roll as a single or double stroller right out of the box and offers up to 30 configurations when used with additional accessories. It’s suitable for newborn use with the included bassinet, while the tandem seat provides a comfy spot for toddlers too. There’s even an optional stroller board, so older siblings can catch a ride! Aside from the multiple seating options, this stroller offers many standout features. A magnetic five-point safety harness makes it easy to buckle in both babies or toddlers. The seat reclines to a fully flat position, for comfortable naps on the go. The outer fabric is woven from recycled plastic bottles and boasts leather detailing, while the interior has a soft bamboo lining. And our product tester adored the roomy storage basket, all-terrain wheels and the adjustable handlebar. Oh, and did we mention that this single-to-double model got an honorable mention in this year's Best of the Bump stroller awards?

Dimensions (open): 43" (L) x 23" (W) x 43" (H) | Dimensions (folded): 37" (L) x 23" (W) x 15" (H) | Weight: 22.2 lbs. (chassis); 8 lbs. (bassinet); 4.4 lbs. (main seat) | Capacity: 55 lbs. per seat

“One of the major wins for my husband and I was the adjustable handlebar, my husband is 6'4" and would always complain about his back with other strollers. He could comfortably push our two babes without any pain.”

Best double stroller for infant and toddler

What We Love
  • Affordable price point
  • Roomy storage basket
  • Bench seat and standing platform
Things To Consider
  • Top seat doesn’t recline
  • Some parents say it’s difficult to maneuver

This double stroller offers 12 different seat configurations (with room for two infant car seats, two stroller seats or one of each), making it ideal for growing families. Even though this versatile pick is designed for two children, it folds like a single stroller to make outings with your kiddos a touch simpler. The close-to-you rear seat lets you stay within touching distance of baby, while the lower seat is just the right height for toddlers to climb in and out. It pushes smoothly, and neither seat blocks access to the large storage basket. But arguably the best part about this tandem stroller is its affordable price point. The Graco Ready2Grow’s extensive feature list (which also includes two full-sized canopies, convertible seat harnesses and seated or standing options for bigger kids) doesn’t translate to a super-expensive price tag.

Dimensions (open): 48" (L) x 25.6" (W) x 47.4" (H) | Dimensions (folded): 36.5" (H) x 23.2" (W) x 13" (D) | Weight: 32 lbs. | Capacity: 50 lbs. (front seat); 40 lbs. (rear seat)
