Affordable Tandem Double Stroller


The Graco DuoGlider LX Stroller is an exceptional value for those of you with a need for double strollers but don't want to budget a lot of funds and money toward that. I can understand - you want to spend on other important things too. There are a lot of ways and directions to go for buying things for your babies! You may trade off a bit of a smooth ride and some plastic construction with this stroller. But for under $150, you are getting a baby double stroller with some wheel suspension, an elevated rear seat, a child food tray that is removable, a narrow profile at 20 inches in width, and an overall great deal. It's worth a look for those on a budget - and for those who still would rather put more money to other uses for their family.

Maclaren Twin Double Stroller - Economical and Lightweight

Maclaren is famous for having that certain canopy style that protects from the heat, wind, and random tidbits floating in the air. Their Twin Triumph Double Stroller line is an excellent choice for discerning parents. The handles are individual for each arm. This is different than many strollers which utilize an full handlebar all the way across the baby stroller. The parking brakes are foot operated. The wheels are quite small and do not have shock absorbers. The seats do have the standard five point harness. And they can hold a surprisingly large 55 lbs on each seat. With individual reclining seats for several seat positions, this Maclaren double stroller is affordable at around $265. Consider it for your online shopping list to narrow the field before you check them all out in person!

Schwinn Baby Double Strollers

Canopy action is not the greatest here. But it may serve you just fine. It's one-piece only. You aren't going to get separate shading. The seats also are in a permanent half-reclined position. But they do hold up to one hundred pounds in total between them. Total weight of around 33 pounds to move this stroller in and out of the car is pretty decent and movable. This double stroller has a 5 year warranty too.

Schwinn is normally a bike name - but they do offer some stroller options, including ones for two children. Basically, while a solid brand, you're getting a trade off between some additional features and a price savings of $100-200 between the Free Wheeler and other higher-priced options.

Will you use individual canopies often? Are seats that recline and move to different angles something that you'll use quite a bit? If so, then perhaps look elsewhere as options like the BOB Duallie and Baby Jogger City Elite in jogging double strollers. Really whatever your pick in the new models, all of them are decent quality and provide adequate support, safety and a good ride for the children.

A Double Jogging Stroller to be proud of: The Tike Tech

If you're an active and outside mom who wants to keep on jogging and running with your infant, the Tike Tech Trax360 is an excellent option among a number of affordable double stroller choices. It gives you many of the same stroller features as the Bob Revolution and other Bob baby stroller models, while keeping an even lighter profile and being lighter on your wallet. The Trax360 double stroller model retails for just over $300 but can be found for much less if you search a bit. Baby support and comfort is a big selling point for this model. The hand brake does its job and the side-by-side seating also includes a arm rest bar for your little passengers. Check it out and put it on your stroller list to compare.

Affordable Double Stroller - Kolcraft

Kolcraft has a couple of double tandem strollers that will fit parents on a budget. Their Contours Options Tandem Plus Stroller is available for under $230 and has a lot of nice features. Not as many extra options as fancy double strollers - but you are saving 2-3 x the price of those high-end baby strollers too. There are 2 stadium seats that fully recline. There are infant head rests. There's a very roomy basket for storing items. And two drink holders for the stroller drivers! Don't forget about the sun and wind canopy along with the decent wheel suspension. All together, you have a great value proposition in this competitive double stroller market. Worth checking out.
