Should you get a combi double stroller?

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!
