Bugaboo Donkey
This is the best double stroller for families who are looking for a stylish, side-byside double stroller. It's a bit bulkier than the other Bugaboo models however, it is sturdy and built to last. It has a movable handlebar that extends and retracts easily. It has a long reach so that my husband, who is 6'1" is able to easily push it, even when it is full of weight.
The seats are comfortable and can be placed so that one child is in front of the other, or to have children face each the other. The seats can recline independently of one other. The canopies cover both seat fabrics, if desired. However, they don't provide adequate ventilation, so they could be like a tiny oven on hot days. They also don't have a peek-a-boo window to see the children.
This stroller has a unique feature that lets it grow with you and your family. It can go from a single seat (Mono Mode) to a double side-by-side stroller. This is the only double stroller convertible to do this. It can be used in conjunction with baby bassinets or a car seat.
It is easy to maneuver on smooth surfaces and handles slopes and steps well. It isn't easy to maneuver in crowded eateries and shops. It is also difficult to fold up, especially when seats are attached. It is still fairly compact though, and it does fit through most doors easily.
There is an additional storage bin that can be tucked away on the frame, next to the front seat in mono mode. This is ideal for groceries and other things. The main storage basket underneath the seats is huge and can hold up to 100 lbs which is more than any other stroller on this list!

This is among the top twin strollers for new borns. It is compatible with a range of infant car seats and bassinets (adapters are sold separately) and can be used as a double stroller straight out of the box. The Vista Upper and Vista Lower adapters let you use two infant car seats at the same time.
The V2 is a more refined version of the original Vista. The toddler seat is now raised by half an inch, the footrest has been made bigger and the canopy comes with an extra fabric extension that zips out. Also, the harness has been modernized - it doesn't require changed out, making it simple to adjust.
The stroller is equipped with large wheels (8" in front and 11.5" in back) and a strong suspension system that allows it to navigate any terrain. The rubber wheels on the front are great for navigating gravel and rocks, while the tread on the rear wheels is better for grassy hills or sidewalks.
A child's bicycle can also be attached to the front of a stroller. This is a great solution for parents who don't wish to invest in a baby car seat. If you have a child who is old enough to stand up then the Vista stroller can accommodate a third child with its piggyback board accessory.

The double stroller's two standard seats have reclining backrests and independent canopy. The seats are also designed to take Chicco's KeyFit or KeyFit 30, the #1 baby car seat that is rated the highest in both the front and rear seat. (Car seat sold separately).

In our Strollers & Multiples laboratory tests, Cortina Together received high marks for ease of usage. This metric is based on how simple it is to set up and fold the stroller and adjust the safety harness, open and close the snack tray, disengage and engage the brakes, and lift and carry the folded stroller as if putting it in a trunk and for compatible double strollers, install and remove the infant car seat.
There are some downsides to this model, however. First, it's heavy. double push chair pushchairsandprams weighs 36.6 pounds fully loaded which puts it close to the top of our measurement. Additionally, it has limited visibility in the back seat when a car seat is installed. Lastly the front tray release is sometimes difficult to operate, especially after prolonged use. However, despite these issues, we consider this to be an excellent stroller for your family.

Its front swivel lock wheels can be rotated to allow easy maneuvering on flat surfaces and lock to give stability on bumpy surfaces. It also features a compact umbrella fold that closes in a matter of seconds and can be set up to make it easy to transport. Its aluminum frame that is lightweight, foam handle and carrying strap makes it one of the most easy double strollers to lift in our tests.
This side-by-side stroller offers independently reclining seats and foot rests for maximum comfort for both children. Its large canopy offers UPF 50 protection and also comes with a peekaboo view for easy monitoring. We wish the canopy was vented to let in more airflow however. We also weren't thrilled that the cup holder sits quite high on the frame, meaning you'll need to bend down to reach it.
In our test of tipping, the Jeep was able to tip over at 39 degrees of incline, which is above average for a double stroller. It's a little heavier and has more storage for the money. The seats and handle are also well-padded.
