A jogging stroller is a great alternative for outdoor enthusiasts. However it isn't easy to carry and lift without a designated handle.

The amount of storage a stroller offers is important, especially when you're hauling two children and their supplies.

It is essential that your stroller is able to take the weight and movement that your children will be carrying, but you also want them to be seated comfortably. Our testers examined padding, shoulder strap adjustments that were simple to adjust and buckles that didn't require more than one hand to operate. Some models, such as the UPPAbaby Vista V2 and Evenflo Pivot Xpand, have reclining seats that allow children to rest comfortably. Others such as the Joovy Caboose Ultralight Graphite and Graco Duet, have seats with limited recline options.

Another feature to consider is the number and location of sunshades. Certain models, such as the UPPAbaby Vista v2 and Evenflo Pivot have two canopy options that cover both seats, while others, such as the Joovy Caboose and Graco Duet, have a single canopy with a window that opens for the rear passenger. This can be helpful in the event that your children are more likely to fall asleep in the same place, but it's worth remembering that they'll only have minimal coverage when the window is opened.

Comfortable

The most important thing to consider when choosing a stroller is how comfortable it is to use. Look for an extremely comfortable, well-padded and sturdy seat that is big enough for both children and has reclining positions. The canopy should be big enough to provide some shade and there should be a tray for parents with two cup holders. Other features that are useful include the foot brake, lockable front wheels and an organizer for parents that can be used to store diaper bags and snacks.

The best double car seat strollers also include safety features to make your child feel safe. Choose a model with five-point harnesses that hold your child's hips and shoulders, the most rigid parts of their body. This shifts the force of an accident away from the abdomen and towards the seat, making this type of restraint much safer than a lap belt.

It's also a good idea to think about how the stroller can fit into your home. It is important to ensure that the stroller can fit in your trunk or closet before you purchase it. Also, you should measure the width of all doors which you'll be required to pass through with the stroller opened. The standard doorways are 30 to 36 inches wide, however some are a bit narrower.

If you're looking for a low-cost alternative this model is a good choice. Evenflo Pivot Xpand Double offers an adjustable seating option that can work with two infant car seats as well as two toddler seats that can face either forward or backward. This model is comparable with some of the more expensive double strollers. However, it's more affordable for growing families. The one-hand fold and front foot brake make it simple to move around, while the 3-position handle that is padded is suitable for mom or dad. The large cargo basket is a practical access compartment in the rear for larger items. The swivels in the rear and front are equipped with suspension to ensure a smooth ride in different terrains. Plus, the no-rethread harness allows you to quickly and easily to secure your children's seat belts. It's machine washable, and easy to spot clean too.
