It is able to be used to seat one child in the main seat, or two toddler seats that can be converted into bassinet-style seating.

Sturdy

When families are constantly on the move, a double stroller is an essential tool. It must be sturdy enough to stand up to different surfaces, including suburban sidewalks and park trails.

It's an excellent idea to think about how the stroller can fit into your home. You should make sure the stroller is able to fit into your closet or trunk before purchasing it.
