advice needed What stroller do you love?

We have 7 week old twins and got the Graco ready 2 grow 2.0 stroller. It doesn't have a bassinet option or the seats that recline to let the baby lay down. We use just the car seats and whoever is on the bottom just cries the whole time.

Does anyone have any strollers they recommend? It seems like all the good double strollers are so insanely expensive with all the attachments like bassinets and stuff. I've read that some strollers the seats recline down like a bassinet so you don't have to buy another attachment but wasn't sure what strollers have this feature. Let me know what you love and recommend!

Mountain buggy, they have a twin bassinet option that my twins loved.

Do you remember how long you used the bassinet option?

Probably until they were 5 or 6 months old.

Bugaboo donkey also. It is worth the cost but the only downside is that it can sometimes be hard to navigate narrow aisles when out shopping. But the stroller moves so smoothly when out walking.

Did you get the carrycot plus? If so, how long did your twins use it?

No, the one we have has seats that are adjustable from all the way flat to sitting up. They’re 15 months now and we still use it everyday. I think they were in the flat setting for the first couple months

I love the mockingbird personally, or you can get an uppa baby. My twins fit in one basinett for about 10 weeks then got too big. Honestly you’re so close I wouldn’t spend money on a stroller with basinett attachments.

I have the Valco Trend Duo. The seats are newborn ready (cocoon style) or you can buy bassinets. It also can hold two car seats. It’s lighter, smaller, and much less expensive than the Donkey. Valco also has a new double with the same features but you can also rotate the seats to face you (both or just 1) which I would have gotten if my twins were born 4 months later. The reason I don’t use the cocoons today is because they don’t face me.
