Choosing a Stroller

Strollers are the best friend of parents. They allow parents to easily transport their children around town, explore the outdoors, or go through busy shopping malls. However, selecting the right stroller for your child and your family's needs is vital for a smooth ride. To select a stroller that's ideal for you, you must first think about where you'll use it and how often. Do you need it to navigate rough terrain, fit in the trunk of a car that is small or fit through narrow doors? Consider whether you will be walking around the city or hiking in the woods. After you've chosen the kind of stroller and features you'd like, you can test drive different models.

Begin by doing some laps around the parking lot. This will help you get accustomed to the way it handles. If you're planning to use it to run, test the wheels for wear and check how they roll over bumps and uneven sidewalks. Choose if you'd like an essentials storage basket or a recliner chair for newborns. Also, make sure the handlebars are an appropriate height for your stride and that there's enough room in the seat for the child of your size.

If you're thinking on having more kids in the near future, think about purchasing one stroller that converts into a double or allows you to add a stroller board (for toddlers). One of the most common stroller regrets for parents of Babylist is not buying an convertible model.

If you plan to use the stroller during stormy or bad weather ensure that the accessories like sun umbrellas and rain covers can be attached quickly and easily. And don't forget about safety--check for a five-point harness system that's easy to buckle and unbuckle as well as a safe seat and robust brakes. Examine the hinges for any sharp edges or places where a finger could get stuck. Make sure the stroller is in compliance with the safety requirements of your state and local laws. Finally, try it out with your child to make sure you're both comfortable.

Strollers for One Child

It is possible that you only need one stroller if have only one child. These strollers are generally smaller than the larger ones and have the same safety features. They also come with a large canopy that shields your baby from the sun and wind. They are also more flexible and have fewer parts that could break.

If your baby is still young and is still in an infant car seat, an all-in-one stroller with an integrated infant carrier could be the ideal option for you. These strollers have sturdy frames that can hold multiple seats, or even a second car seat. They are generally easier to use and cost less upfront than convertible or double strollers.

An all-in-one stroller can also be a great option for older infants. They come with a big and spacious basket that can hold your child's items and can fit most baby diaper bags. They're also easy to steer and are narrow enough to pass through a doorway or bathroom stall. Plus, they fold easily and can be put in a closet or behind the seat of the car for quick transportation.

If you're seeking a stroller that will grow with your family, consider a convertible model. They come with frames that can accommodate up to two toddler seats or even a baby bassinet. (Adapters and carriers are available separately). They're generally more expensive than single gb stroller-seat strollers however, they're an excellent investment for families who wish to move around with ease and are flexible in seating. The UPPAbaby Vista v2 is our top recommendation for a top-quality convertible stroller that comes with premium features and can carry up to three children comfortably (age-dependent).

Strollers for Two Kids

A double Stroller single can help you transport two children at a time If you have more than one. There are many different alternatives, such as tandems, side-by-side strollers and wagons. Many of the dual-strollers that we tested could accommodate an additional child's seat or a third if you add a piggyback board (sold separately). Tandem strollers come with more options for different levels and ages than side-byside models, but they are also generally larger in dimensions and heavier in weight.

Parents of twins will require a stroller that offers the same seating arrangement as their children. They will likely require a stroller that can accept two infant car seats simultaneously which is something that only a handful of our top-rated double strollers offer. Twins who are similar in age or capability might be better off with a tandem stroller, however the type of seating will also depend on how far apart they are in age and the features they prefer.

In our tests, all tandem strollers that we tested were easy to maneuver with large turning radius. They did not turn as smoothly in tight spaces as a single person buggy-stroller and can be a challenge to navigate curbs. The majority of side-byside strollers we tested fit through doors that are standard. However, they might have a narrower aisle than a single person buggy-stroller.

Some side-by-side strollers we tested could be used with an additional toddler seat, but they didn't permit you to swap seats between the two, which would be helpful when your children are of different ages. The UPPAbaby Vista V2 Double is an exception to this rule, and it lets you easily switch between single and double mode by using its convertible frame.

We've compared the top double strollers on the market. They offer the convenience of keeping both children in sight at all times, and have plenty of storage space for your gear. Some even include parent consoles, which can be useful in keeping track of your children's desires and needs. They are typically more expensive than a single stroller sale stroller, however some are priced at prices that are comparable to or less than those of our best single strollers.

Strollers for three children

You'll need to locate the perfect stroller for your children If you have three (or two older twins and a singleton). This is a significant purchase, so it's wise to research and search for a model that will suit your lifestyle, family size and budget.

Another excellent triple stroller option is the Joovy Big Caboose. It comes with two car-seat-compatible forward-facing reclined seats that will fit children up to 32 inches tall. The rear seat can be added to the stroller, making it a triple tandem, with an ordinary third seat for your eldest child. This model is best suited for twins or siblings close in age, in which the older child will sit in the front seat and the younger twin will sit in the rear seat.

Many parents opt for a quad stroller which is essentially double stroller that has an additional seat in the back. While they aren't difficult to maneuver in tight spaces, they do provide more seating options than the standard double. The Foundations Trio Sport 4 Passenger Stroller is a great option. It's relatively affordable and has received a lot of praise from parents.
