How to Select a Stroller

Strollers are a parent's best friend. They allow parents to easily transport their children around town, discover the outdoors, or go through busy shopping malls. It is crucial to select the best stroller for your child and your family. To select a stroller that's right for you, first think about where you'll use it and how often. Do you need it to travel on tough terrains, fit in a compact car trunk, or navigate narrow doors? Consider whether you will be taking it on city walks or out in the woods. Once you've determined the stroller type and features you require then it's time to test drive a few models.

Begin by taking a few laps around the parking area to get familiar with the way it handles and moves. If you plan to use it to jog, check the wheels for wear and test out how well they handle bumps and uneven sidewalks. Consider if you need a storage basket to carry essentials or a reclining seat for newborns. Be sure that the handlebars fit your stride comfortably and there's enough space for an infant of your size to sit in the seat.

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

If you're planning to use your stroller during the rainy season or other weather conditions, make sure that accessories such as rain covers and sun umbrellas are attached quickly and easily. Don't forget safety. Make sure you have a five point harness system that is easy to buckle and unbuckle as well as a safe seating position and sturdy brakes. Examine the hinges for any sharp edges or places where fingers could get stuck. Then, make sure the stroller is compliant with local and state safety standards. Last but not least make sure to test it with your child to make sure you both feel at ease.

Strollers for One Child

You may only require one stroller if have a single stroller near me child. These strollers are typically smaller than the larger ones and have the same safety features. They also come with a large canopy that protects your baby from the sun and wind. These strollers are also more maneuverable, and they have fewer components to break.

If your child is in an infant seat strollers with an infant carrier included is a good option. These strollers have strong frames that can hold several seats or even an additional infant car seat that can be attached to the base.

Strollers for Two Children

A double stroller will help you transport two children at the same time when you have more than one. There are many different alternatives, such as tandems, side-byside strollers and wagons. A majority of the dual strollers we tested are able to accommodate a second child seat, or even a third one if you include a ride-along board that piggybacks (sold separately). Tandem strollers come in more designs to accommodate different ages and stages. However they tend to be larger and heavier than side-byside models.

Parents of twins will need a stroller with the same seating arrangement as their children. They likely will require a stroller that can accommodate two infant car seats simultaneously, something that very few of our top rated single strollers-rated double strollers can do. Twins who are similar in age or capability might be better off with the tandem stroller, but the type of seating will also depend on how far apart they are in terms of age and what features they prefer.

In our tests, all of the tandem strollers we tested were easy to maneuver with a a large turning radius. They didn't turn as smoothly in tight spaces as a single stroller and it could be difficult to maneuver around curbs. The majority of the side-byside strollers that we tested could fit through doors that are standard. However, they may have a narrower aisle than a single-stroller.

Some strollers that were side-by-side we tested worked with the second toddler seat but they didn't permit you to swap seats between the two this would be useful if your children are at different age groups. The UPPAbaby V2 Double is the exception to this rule. It allows you to effortlessly switch between double and single mode using its convertible frame.

We've tested the best double strollers available. They offer the convenience of keeping both children in sight at all times, and most have plenty of storage space for your items. Some include parent consoles, which can be helpful in keeping track of your child's needs and wants. Some are priced at the same cost as our best single strollers, but others are more expensive.
