Ease of Storage Double strollers must be able to hold diaper bags jackets, water bottles, and other items, as well as keys, wallets and phones of parents. They must also be able to move over different surfaces and maneuver in tight spaces. When not in use, they are often required to fit into the trunk of a car.

If your stroller is equipped with a handlebar, make sure that it is adjustable to accommodate the different heights. A canopy is an additional feature that protects your children from harsh sunlight or the harsh weather. The most effective canopies have an reversible window or transparent plastic peek-aboo that lets you observe your child without causing any disturbance. Some canopies also come with visors to block direct sun. The ease of folding and unfolding the stroller is an important aspect to think about. Strollers that are compact when folded are easier to store and take up less space in the trunk of your car. Also, strollers with one hand-release button that folds the chassis are more user-friendly. When choosing a double stroller, bear in mind how far your children are in age and what type of outings you plan on taking them on. If your children are close in age, you could opt for a tandem stroller that is high/low to allow them to be together on outings. On the other hand, if your children have a significant age difference then you may want to consider an option that is side-by-side, which gives them more privacy. If you're planning to use your stroller to carry baby car seats, choose a model with a high attachment score and compatible with top-rated brands. This won't have as big impact on your overall rating as other factors, but it's an important factor to consider if you're planning on using adapters for car seats.
