How to Fold Up a Graco Double Stroller
Graco, an American baby equipment company, manufactures three types of double strollers. The Twin Ipo stroller is an umbrella-style, side-by-side double stroller. Both the DuoGlider and the Quattro Tour Duo are tandem strollers, more suitable for navigating through tight or crowded spaces. The DuoGlider is the budget option, with few amenities, whereas the Quattro Tour Duo features a more compact fold, ergonomic handlebars and several other extra features. The folding process for the Twin Ipo differs significantly to that of the other two double strollers, but all three feature a one-handed folding mechanism to streamline the process.

Tips & Warnings
You can achieve a more compact fold with the DuoGlider if you remove the front canopy and front child tray before folding it. Do this if you need to fit the stroller into a tight space, such as the trunk of a car.
Always make sure your children are clear of the stroller before folding it as fingers can easily become trapped in the folding mechanism.
Always remove infant carriers before folding the stroller.
