When looking for a double-stroller there are a variety of factors to consider, such as whether you want an infant or toddler seat, or a canopy.

Design

One of the first things to think about when buying strollers is where and how you'll be using it. This will help narrow your choices. A more rugged design is important for those who plan to take it to the park or for long walks. This is especially true for those who want to make use of their stroller as an auto seat travel system. In this instance you'll have to determine whether the model you select supports the type of car seat or bassinet you plan to use it with.

They are also heavier and difficult to maneuver in tight spaces than other models.

Comfort

Stores

If you're shopping for a double stroller, search for models that have ample storage. If you're carrying groceries, toddler snacks, or two bags of toys, you'll require plenty of space to store your daily necessities. The stroller should fold up easily and compactly.
