When choosing a double travel stroller, parents often prioritize lightweight design, portability, and ease of use. Two of the most viewed models are the UPPAbaby Minu Duo and the Nuna TRVL Dubl. Both offer compact, travel-friendly solutions for families with two little ones, but they have key differences that may influence your decision. The UPPAbaby Minu Duo is coming soon on February 20, 2025, so keep an eye out if this one is for you!

Let’s break down their features, similarities, and differences to help you pick the best one for your needs:

1. Design & Weight

Both strollers focus on portability and ease of maneuverability, making them great for traveling, urban environments, and everyday use.

• UPPAbaby Minu Duo:

• Features a sleek and modern aluminum frame.
• Lightweight and narrow, making it easier to maneuver through tight spaces.
• Sturdy wheels for smooth rides on various terrains.
• Features identical seat sizes - both up to 50lbs
• Independent recline for each seat, allowing one child to nap while the other sits upright.
• Padded, adjustable 5-point harness for added safety.
• Bottom Basket holds up to 25lbs

 

• Nuna TRVL Dubl:

• Also designed to be lightweight and compact.
• Features a sleek, minimalist design with premium fabrics.
• Slightly different seat widths (one wider than the other for car seat compatibility) - both are up to 50lbs
• Independent reclining seats, offering flexibility.
• One-piece bumper bar for added security.
• 3 to 5-point no-rethread harness makes it easy to fasten them in
• Bottom Basket holds up to 22lbs

Winner? If you prefer equal seat sizes and a slightly narrower stroller, the UPPAbaby Minu Duo is a better fit. If a sleek, travel-friendly design with different seat widths works for you, the Nuna TRVL Dubl is an excellent choice.

2. Car Seat Compatibility

For parents looking for a stroller that works from infancy, car seat compatibility is crucial.

• UPPAbaby Minu Duo:

• Compatible with UPPAbaby infant car seats via adapters (sold separately).
• Works for both seats, but it is to be used for one infant car seat attachment at a time

• Nuna TRVL Dubl:

• Car seat compatible, but only on the wider seat.
• Compatible with Nuna PIPA series infant car seats without adapters. 

3. Foldability & Portability

A quick and compact fold is a must for travel-friendly strollers.

• UPPAbaby Minu Duo:

• One-handed, compact fold.
• Built-in carry handle for easy lifting.
• Stands when folded for convenience.

• Nuna TRVL Dubl:

  • Quick, compact fold with an automatic lock.
  • Includes a carry strap for easy transport.

 

 

4. Accessories & Canopy

Accessories can enhance the stroller’s functionality and convenience.

• UPPAbaby Minu Duo:

• UPF extendable canopy with ventilation.
• Snack tray, travel bag, bumper bar, and additional storage available as add-ons.

• Nuna TRVL Dubl:

• Water-repellent, UPF 50+ canopy with an extended sunshade.
• Less customizable compared to UPPAbaby in terms of accessories.
• Includes a Rain Cover & Bumper Bar

 

Both are excellent double travel strollers, designed with high-quality materials, smooth maneuverability, and parent-friendly features. Your choice ultimately depends on your lifestyle and what suits your family best. Consider your preferences, and we're sure you'll be content with your decision!
