The tandem double stroller's suspension and wheels offer a smooth ride across all terrains, while the 1-touch rear brakes that are linked and have a toe-tap activated make stopping a breeze.

In our Strollers & Multiples lab tests, Cortina Together scored well for its ease of use. This metric is based on how easy it is to fold and set up the stroller, adjust the safety harness as well as the snack tray, disengage and engage the brakes, and lift and carry the folded stroller like you would put it in a trunk, and for double strollers that are compatible install and take off an infant car seat.

We did discover some flaws to this model, however. First, it's heavy. It weighs in at 36.6 pounds when fully loaded and is closer to the extreme end of our metric, and is heavier than the average for this class of strollers. In addition, it has a limited view from the back seat when the car seat is in place. Additionally the front tray release can be difficult to operate, particularly when used for a long time. Despite these issues, we still think this is a great double stroller that will keep up with your family for many years to come.
