This model allows car seat carriers to face opposite directions or in the same direction and also has a huge storage bin that you can access without removing the infant carrier. It also fits easily through the majority of doors.

Folding Ease

The UPPAbaby vista V2 is a large gorgeous twin stroller. It can carry two car seats for infants when equipped with the appropriate adapters (car-seat adapters are sold separately). It is easy to push and glide, turning and spinning like a single-seat stroller. It comes with an adjustable leg and foot rests, a large UPF 50+ canopy with peekaboo windows and padded five-point safety harnesses that are simple to unfasten and fasten. You can also use the included toddler seat, or you can add the RumbleSeat which is a bassinet-like chair for infants and small children. The oversized storage basket is roomy enough for all your stuff and has a convenient spot to stash your phone or purse, as well as four cup holders.

It isn't easy to fold, especially when you're holding the handlebar with one hand and the child's seat in the second. You'll also need to remove the rear seat from its base to fold the stroller, which takes longer than other double strollers that we've test. Fortunately, the company changed the Vista to be compatible with the latest car seat adapters. The new version--launched April 2023) will work with both the original and updated adapters in both positions, and will fold with two adapters attached at once.

The seats are comfortable and padded, and they can be reclined in multiple positions by pressing a button. The buckles are among the easiest to unfasten and fasten in our tests.

The only drawback to the TwinRoo+ is that its bench seat is made for a big kid who is at minimum 2 1/2 years old. So it's not ideal for twins or siblings that are close in age. But it's still an excellent option for families who wish to run, and its tough structure means that the frame will not wear out as fast as other tandems we've tried.

Seating

If you're planning on using car seats for twins in the infant stage the stroller that supports these seats is essential. A lot of our top-scoring double strollers are compatible with car seat adapters, which makes them compatible with the most popular brands. For example, the UPPAbaby Vista v2 double works with two car seats and the Joovy Twin Roo+ accommodates one car seat and bassinet (sold separately). We prefer strollers that work with multiple infant car seats because you can choose from a wide range of prices and not be shackled into a single brand.

You'll want to decide whether you prefer a tandem or side-by-side stroller. A side-by-side twin stroller provides an older-fashioned seating arrangement and is more maneuverable -- particularly in narrow spaces or over curbs.
