Hello! And welcome to our new site: The Double Stroller Source. This is definitely a site that’s currently a work-in-progress, so please bear with us as we put up as much content as we can within the next several months. What that means for you is that not only will you get the best information on the web about buying, using, and maintaining your double stroller. As we get more and more content from our major contributors as time go, you’ll learn all of that and more. Stick around: You’ll be surprised at just what you can learn from us; we’re also open to learning from you, the readers, so please use the comment fields below the posts.
Okay, let’s get this thing started on the right foot. First of all, what is a double stroller anyway? A double stroller is a specialized type of stroller that’s going to be typically used for families with more than one child. This type of stroller doesn’t always have to be used with twins, of course. While that’s the most popular choice should you have twins, double strollers are very popular in the crowd of people who simply have two stroller-aged children. People are having more children these days, meaning that these strollers are absolutely in high demand. It’s not uncommon to see a family with one infant and one two year old in trail. Now, you can simply put them both in the same stroller and be done with it. It’s very convenient.
The nice thing about this type of stroller is that it reduces a lot of your workload. Many people end up having two strollers (one for each child), which means that carting your kids through the city, at the park, or at the beach becomes a major chore. While these aren’t going to make your life 100% easy, you’re going to find that having your children with you and together in the same stroller is not only safer for them, but it allows you to keep your eye on both of your children at all times.
This is extremely important if you ever find yourself in a crowded city with your family.
The other nice thing about a double? It’s cheaper than getting two strollers. I know that’s probably not much of a selling point, but it’s something to consider if you’re on a budget (and most families with two kids are).

What’s the big deal about the combi double stroller, anyway? If you’ve ever seen or used one of these, you’ll know the answer to this question right away. For parents with twins (or parents who have two children close in age), the combi double stroller has become one of the saving graces of being a parent of two. The combi is a pretty common type (much like the double umbrella stroller) that allows the children you have to sit next to each other, instead of facing each other or in tandem (one in front of the other). This is usually quite a bit more entertaining for your children, as they can sit there and play with each other while you’re pushing them around. You also get the benefit of being able to look after them at all times. That’s a major plus, and a downright necessity when considering a stroller.
Many of the more “name brand” strollers are combis, as well. Companies such as Maclaren and Chicco are major manufacturers of this type, and have spent years developing some of the best ones on the market. They’ve taken years worth of suggestions, concerns, and tips from parents and turned those into some pretty high-end strollers. For example, if you look at a typical Maclaren offering, you’ll usually see that their strollers are made out of high-quality materials, have very few (if any) parts that can be of any danger to your child, are maneuverable in just about every situation, and best yet? They’re easily folded up and taken with you. Yes, that’s probably one of the most important considerations when getting a combi stroller; because combis tend to be rather large, you need to make sure that you get one that’ll fold up and fit in your trunk.
If you’re going on a long trip in an airplane, it’s also imperative that the stroller fit in the aircraft somewhere (generally the cargo bin). Most higher-end combis will do that quite readily, so don’t worry there.
Which stroller would I recommend for you and your family? That’s tough to say. While there are plenty of great combi double strollers on the market, you need to go out to the store and try some of them out first. See what fits your children, and especially see what fits in your trunk! If you have friends with children, you might want to consult with them as well. Reviews are some of the most important things you can get when making such a decision. Good luck!
