The only downsides to the Joovy Twin Roo are minor and specific to this model. Kerry says that the packaging was fun and clever, but that it came in five boxes which could be a hassle to lug around.

Billingsley states that the best double stroller for a toddler is one with multiple customization options. This includes a seat or a bassinet that can be removed. This is due to toddlers having little endurance, so having a stroller that has an attachment for a bassinet will provide them with a safe spot to rest for a nap. She says that a double pram stroller stroller must also have a comfortable harness and recline position as well as plenty of storage space for snacks and toys.
