I have a question. I am expecting twins.. In December.. I am looking at double strollers. I have seen a few that I like, but which ones are best.. The side by side of front to back..
Also, is it important to make sure that dbl strollers can accomodate both infant car seats. Their are very few like that

It really depends on what you want the stroller for. I have the Graco Duo Glider that supports the infant seats. I used that when we went shopping (which was actually hardly ever). I have the BOB Revolution for walks out. I would highly recommend this stroller...it is pricey but totally worth it!
Also, one thing I wish I would have done differently is not get the infant carrier type car seats. I wish I would have got a convertable car seat, because we had to buy two new carseats once the girls reached 20 lbs or 30 inches. I did not use my carriers much because we did not travel too many places when the twins were first born.

Hi Nurse Stacie and welcome! :)
Ahh the age old search for the perfect twin stroller. Is there one? It is up for debate. I can tell you that our first stroller was the Graco DuoGlider (See my review here). Graco offers Infant car seats that snap into this stroller. It is affordable and gets the job done. It has in-line seating rather than side by side which is what you will want when grocery shopping etc.
Once our girls were old enough to ride in a stroller without infant seats attached we upgraded to a BOB (see my review here). The BOB is much more pricey, but you get what you pay for. We take 3 mile walks every other night or so and this stroller is a god send. I would recommend it to anyone!
We still keep the DuoGlider in the back of our SUV for trips to the store, but the BOB has become our #1 go to stroller.
***sheesh TwinsMom beat me to the punch.. she snuck in and posted while I was typing this.
I think everyone will have a different opinion for sure!!! I just sold my double- I loved it for the first 1.5 years!!!!
It was an Eddie Bauer Stadium seating front/back. The car seats fit in it and it was fabulous for when they sat up on their own as the front seat can face the back seat so they can see each other!!! Then, it just started getting cumbersome for me! I now have a little red wagon that has 2 seats and seat belts. It is super light weight- fits in the back of my car and just makes life easier to pick up sis from school and stuff. I also have a double jog stroller for our daily walks in the neighborhood.

My twins group moms highly recommended the Baby Trend Snap-n-Go Double. You can snap almost any carseat in it and it is a breeze to use. I bought one at our recent twin sale. You can get it at Walmart new for $90. It does only work while they are in their pumpkin seats, but you could sell it afterwards. Good luck!
