It glides, pushes and turns like a single-seater stroller. It features adjustable leg and footrests, a large UPF 50+ canopy, a peekaboo windows, and padded 5-point safety harnesses.

The Joovy TwinRoo+ is our favorite twin stroller frame for infant car seats. It can be used with a variety of car seats, and both babies can be sat in their infant carriers simultaneously. It is a popular choice among parents who have small vehicles. The clever design cuts down the overall length to ensure that it fits better in some trunks. The seats are comfortable and cushioned and can be reclined in a variety of positions by pressing the button. The buckles were among the most simple to fasten and undo in our tests.
The only drawback to the TwinRoo+ is that its bench seat is specifically designed for a big kid who is at least 2 1/2 years old--so it's not a good choice for twins or siblings who are close in age. It's still a great choice for families that want to go jogging and the robust construction means that it won't wear as quickly as other tandems.
Wheel Suspension
The wheel suspension on twin strollers with car seats makes it more comfortable for the kids. This is particularly true if you are walking over bumps and rough terrain. Strollers with suspension typically have larger wheels and shocks. The more comfortable a stroller rides, the more shocks it has.

Its bench seat is made to accommodate children who are at least 2 1/2 years older, so it's not the best choice for twins or children who are younger.

Some parents might prefer a stroller with a side-byside design because it's less susceptible to sibling squabbles.

On the other hand, side-by-side strollers are typically heavier and longer than single strollers.
