Choosing a Stroller That's Right For You
A stroller is a four-wheeled and often foldable, chair-like carriage in which children are carried. It is a great way to take a stroll or run outdoors.
Kidsland offers a wide selection of double and single strollers. Our top sellers in the store include the Peg Perego Primo Viaggio 3-in-1 Convertible Car Seat/Stroller.

Strollers are a child's best friend. They allow parents to easily transport their children around town, go on adventures in the great outdoors or navigate the crowded malls. But choosing the right stroller for your child and family's needs is essential for a smooth ride. Think about where and how often you'll be using the stroller to select one that is suitable for you. Will it need to traverse rough terrain, fit in a small car trunk or fit through doors that are narrow? Consider whether you will be walking in the city or hiking in the woods. Once you've settled on the kind of stroller and features you'd like to have you can test drive several models.
Begin by doing a few laps in the parking lot. This will help you become accustomed to the way it handles. If you intend to use it for jogging, test the wheels' durability and how they perform on bumps and uneven pavements. Then, consider whether you'll need a basket for storage to carry essentials or a reclining seat for infants. Make sure the handlebars can be positioned to allow you to walk comfortably and there's enough room for the child of your height in the seat.
Next, if you're planning to have more children in the future, consider 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're planning to use the stroller during stormy or bad weather, make sure that accessories such as rain covers and sun umbrellas can be attached quickly and easily. Don't forget safety. Check for a five-point harness system that is easy to buckle and unlock, a secure seating position and robust brakes. Also, look over the hinges to make sure there aren't sharp edges or spots where a finger might become stuck. Check that the stroller meets the safety standards of the state and local authorities. And lastly make sure to test it with your child to make sure you both are comfortable.
Strollers for One Child
If you have one child and only one stroller, a single umbrella stroller model could be all you require. These strollers are typically smaller than full-sized strollers and come with the same safety features. They also have a large canopy that shields your baby from wind and sun. They are also more mobile and have fewer components that could break.
If your child is in an infant car seat, a stroller with an infant carrier built-in is a good option. These strollers are made with sturdy frames that can be used to hold multiple seats and even a second baby car seat. They are generally simpler to use and cost less in the beginning than convertible or double strollers.
An all-in-one stroller could be a good choice for older infants. These strollers typically have an enormous, spacious basket that can accommodate your child's things and can accommodate the majority of diaper bags. They are also easily maneuverable and narrow enough to fit into the bathroom doorway or stall. They fold up easily and can be stored in a closet or the backseat of the car for quick transport.
Consider a convertible stroller if you are looking to expand your stroller with your family. These strollers have a base frame which can accommodate up to two toddler seats or even a baby bassinet. (Adapters and carriers are available separately). These strollers are typically more expensive than single convertible stroller-seaters but they're a great option when you're looking to take your kids on a short journey and can be adapted to seating. The UPPAbaby Vista V2 is a convertible stroller with top features that can hold up to three children (age-dependent).
Strollers for Two Children
If you have two small children, a double stroller is essential to help you transport both of them at once. There are a myriad of options available including tandems, side-by sides, and wagons. Many of the dual-strollers we tested can accommodate a second child's seat, or a third if you add a piggybackboard (sold separately). Tandem strollers offer more configurations for different ages and stages than side-by-side models, but they are also generally larger in dimensions and heavier in weight.
Parents of twins would like a double stroller with the same seating arrangement as their children. They'll also require one that is able to accommodate two infant car seats at the same time and this is something that only a few of our best-rated double strollers can offer. A tandem stroller is best for twins that are similar in terms of age or abilities. However the seating arrangement is dependent on how far the twins are in their ages and the features they like best.
In our tests, we found that all of the tandem strollers that we tested were easy to maneuver and had a large turning radius. However, they didn't turn as smoothly as one stroller in narrow spaces and could be difficult to navigate around curbs. Most of the strollers we reviewed fit in the majority of doors that are standard, but they might have a narrow aisle than one stroller.
Some side-by-side strollers we tested worked with the second toddler seat but they didn't allow you to swap the seats in and out which could be beneficial if your children are at different age groups. The UPPAbaby Vista Double is an exception to this rule, and it allows you to easily switch between single and double mode using its convertible frame.
Side-by-side strollers are the most popular design in our double stroller category and we've tested a few of the best options on the market. They offer the convenience of keeping both kids within sight at all times, and most have plenty of storage space for your gear. Some even have parent consoles, which can be helpful for keeping track of your kids' requirements and desires. Some are priced at the same rate as our top single buggy strollers, whereas others are more expensive.
Strollers for Three Children
You'll need to locate a stroller that can accommodate all your children when you have three (or two older twins and a singleton). It's a major purchase, so shop around to find the right model for your family's size, lifestyle and budget.
Try the Graco Ready2GrowLX three stroller if your looking for an infant stroller that grows with your children. It has an front bench seat that is designed to hold bassinets and infant car seats, and a rear seat that converts into a toddler's seat when the child is six months old. The seat can be used as a standing platform for children in preschool and you can also use the parent tray that comes with cup holders and storage compartments.
Another great triple stroller option is the Joovy Big Caboose. It features two forward-facing, reclining car-seat compatible seats that can fit children up to 32 inches tall. You can then add the rear seat accessory to turn it into a triple tandem stroller, with a third seat for your oldest child. This model is particularly suitable for twins or siblings of similar age, where the older child will be in the front seat while the younger child will be in the rear seat.
Many parents opt for quad strollers that is basically a double stroller with an additional seat in the back. These models are not as easy to maneuver, but they offer more seating options compared to a traditional double. The Foundations Trio Sport 4 Passenger Stroller is a good option. It's a bit pricey and has received excellent reviews from parents.
Strollers are essential for transporting your children around and offering them an enjoyable, safe space to relax on the go. But when it comes time to purchase a new stroller, it is important to know the differences between double and single strollers to choose the best model for your family. It doesn't matter which model you choose it's important to choose a stroller with ergonomic handlebars that are comfortable to steer and push for long periods of time.
