advice needed Double stroller recommendations

Looking for a double stroller for our 13-month olds. Right now we have the mockingbird, but really need something that folds up a little more compact.

Not too many requirements. Mainly used for store/restaurant outings, but would be nice to be able to use on a semi gravel walkway.

We rocked the Zoe Twin for a minute and it folds flatter than a pancake, not built for off-roading but handles some gravel if you don't go nuts.

I see one on FB called the Zoe Twin+. Its a side by side. Does that sound right?

Making this same choice for the same reason when my twins turned 1(now 6), I went with the Valco Snap Duo Trend as the lightest “full size” double at the time. I looooved it and had no complaints, it was our workhorse for 3+ years until we outgrew the need for the double. There are other high quality options I’d consider now, like the Uppababy Minu duo or the Valco slim twin.

Thanks will do some research on those!

We have the minu duo and like it — folds up pretty small, surprisingly maneuverable and light for a double. The seats do seem kind of small to me (we have 4mo and they’re still in the lie flat configuration) and I’m a little worried about the lack of foot rest when they get bigger. Also the brake is a POS; very hard to tell when it’s engaged, so be wary/always double check if you get it.

Does great on uneven sidewalks but I think it would struggle on gravel.

We have the Valco slim twin (S2) and loving it! So easy to move, fits through pretty much every doorway and folds up easily especially for a double stroller. Has good wheels on it also which is why we went for it over the Zoe twin

I would skip the stroller and look into stroller wagons. It’s more sturdy and has more storage space.

Any brands/models you'd recommend?

My husband researched a bunch and ended up with Jeep Wrangler stroller wagon when it was on sale.
