Double Stollers

in Two Under 2

I know there must be tons of these questions, so thanks in advance: I want to start double stroller research and have no idea where to begin; I don't even really know what kinds of features I want, etc.

So first, does anyone know of good websites to get some double stroller info on?

And second, those already with 2u2, if you have a tandem double where your toddler sits in the back and lower, how do they do back there? Those strollers seem so nice and small for a double, but I feel like my DD would get bored and start to lose it; she can be pretty sensitive.

Thanks!

    I've found the BabyGizmoCompany reviews on YouTube very helpful in narrowing my search down. 

    I've heard that a lot of people love the Britax B-Ready so I think that's the one I'm going for. I'm just praying that DS tolerates it :)

    I love my britax b ready. The infant carrier can go on the bottom in the back so my 16mo old can sit up front. We first cot a contours tandem but it was to big and we returned it. I also looked at the city select but thought the britax drove better and the review were better with how long the kids actually fit into the seats

    Love the Britax B-Ready too! Had it for a year now (next week) and it's been awesome!

    Also recommend the baby gizmo videos. Very informative. Everyone is different in what they need so you just ave to figure out what is important to you.  

    Personally we knew ds1would never go for being behind his brother. We went with the city select. Both kids facing out can see. I love that it's a single or double and has so many different configurations

     We also have a double bob which I love. I use it for running and also any outdoor activities like going to Disney or parks or zoo. It is the easiest stroller to move but it's big for indoor use.

    Thanks ladies! Daisy, we go to Disneyland A LOT, so I want a lot of accessories; a child food tray, a cupholder for me, easy access to storage, adjustable footrest...I guess I'm starting to figure out what I need :)

    I have a Phil & Teds - which is the tandem where the bottom seat comes off to make it a single. You actually put the smaller kid back there, it'll tip if you put the bigger one (well once they get closer in weight it doesn't matter). Anyway, I started putting DD2 down there around 5.5-6 months when she was starting to sit on her own and she did totally fine with it. Now that my girls are closer in weight, they take turns. DD1 actually prefers to sit back there because it's easier for her to climb in and out if we're somewhere like the zoo where I let her walk around a bit on her own. Neither of them have ever had a problem with being on the bottom though.

    Plus its just an awesome stroller. It's lightweight (about the same weight as my Chicco stroller I had with the travel system). Can be used as a single or double, handles well on different terrain (I push it through 5-6 inches of snow with no issues) and folds up compactly enough to fit in a small trunk. I have a cup holder for it, there's a snack tray you can get for the top seat (the bottom seat doesn't have one BUT I've never felt the need for a snack tray so it's never been an issue. My kids eat fine without one), I can still get quite a bit in the lower storage basket even with the 2nd seat attached, etc.

    Mountain Buggy +one. Similar to Phil an Teds but the child behind is higher than the child in front so both can see out. Also comes with a cocoon so tiny babies can lie in the back and toddler can sit at the front. It's awesome too.

    I have a Baby Jogger City Mini double and I really love it. I just don't think my children would be comfortable in a tandem stroller. The BJCM is very light and easy to get in and out of the car. It's also very easy to steer.
