Lightweight

The top double umbrella strollers are small and lightweight, but still provide plenty of. They aren't as heavy as a traditional stroller or jogger and are typically smaller when folded too. They don't have the bells and whistles you'll find on large strollers, but they typically come with large canopy with plenty of storage space, and seating that reclines.

A lightweight double umbrella stroller is a popular choice for families that travel together. It folds easily, fits in most trunks and airplane carry-on bags, and is an excellent choice for getting around narrow sidewalks and tight doors. It's also less expensive than more feature-rich "travel stroller" that you could use for your daily walks.

Other lightweight options such as the Joovy Kooper X2, offer more bells and whistles than you would expect from a double stroller umbrella, including more comfortable rides for both kids thanks to the padded seats and more reclined seat. It's important to remember, though, that the more features you select, the more your stroller will weigh. It is also important to be careful that your child doesn't catch their fingers on the hinges or frames of these strollers because of how they open and close.

Compact

The smallest double umbrella strollers, when folded are easy to maneuver and fit in tight spaces. These strollers are an excellent option for parents who often use them on sidewalks, shopping malls, or to travel to tourist attractions like the zoo or aquarium. These compact, lightweight strollers may also be ideal to commute in or as a backup option to an extra heavy, feature-packed stroller when traveling.

There are two kinds of double umbrellas that are lightweight one of which is one with little features and those that offer many options for comfort and convenience in addition to their compact size. Some of the most effective examples include large pop-out umbrellas with SPF 50 and a peekaboo windows, padding seats, 5-point safety harnesses in both seating areas as well as reclining seats and adjustable leg rests. Other crucial aspects to take into consideration are whether or not you want a parent tray, car seat attachment capability and how much storage space each seat has.

The Delta Children LX Double Umbrella is a great example of the bare-bones minimalist stroller that is extremely light and affordable. The stroller weighs just 18 lbs, has a handy carrying strap, and can be easily put in the trunk of your car or in the front closet of your home. Its front wheels have precision technology and swivel, ensuring a smooth ride and easier steering. Another option that is highly recommended is the brand new Kinderwagon Hop, a super narrow tandem umbrella stroller that's lightweight and easy to maneuver through doorways. The model was out of production for a few years however it's now back and worth checking out. It also comes with a larger three-panel canopy for improved sun protection than the less-than-perfect models in this review.

Easy to Fold

The most basic umbrella strollers fold like umbrellas, and they weigh less than other models. They are easy to lift, carry and store away, making them ideal for those times when you don't want to bring your full-size stroller for any reason (traveling on a plane, exploring a foreign country, visiting grandma). These strollers are typically less well-equipped than fully-featured models, but should still provide the basic features like storage space and a sun canopy.

The latest version of the UPPAbaby G-Link 2 is lighter and narrower than the predecessor, and has a more efficient front wheel that increases the maneuverability and pushability. It's a great choice for a double stroller. And it's Disney-approved!

A double tri-folded stroller like the Joovy Kooper X2 offers all the convenience and ease of use of an umbrella stroller in the same form as a full-size stroller. This kind of stroller is replacing the standard double umbrella stroller. It could be your ideal choice if you're seeking a light, flexible stroller.

The majority of double umbrella strollers we recommend are side-by-side models. The exception is the Kinderwagon Hop, a tandem umbrella stroller that's lightweight and easy to fold (though it's also quite narrow). This is a great choice when you're looking for a basic, cheap double umbrella stroller that you can easily put in your trunk for short trips. It comes with two hanging storage bags at the back of each seat, and cup holders for the parents. It's so simple, it may not get your children through the airport without a fuss. But twin buggy will make the trip more comfortable.

Comfortable Seats

Most umbrella strollers don't feature any bells and whistles since they're made to perform one task: take two children from point A to point B. They typically come with comfortable, spacious seats, but they don't have recline options or all-terrain wheels.

The UPPAbaby G-Link 2 stands out. It's a surprisingly light and compact double umbrella stroller that has two seats that weigh just 18 pounds each, which makes it a great option for anyone who travels (it meets Disney size requirements). It's got a fantastic suspension, a huge three-panel canopy that easily shields kids from the sun, and a decent amount of storage space in both seats, although not quite as much as our top selections. It comes with 5-point safety belts on both seats, as well as peek-a-boo window in the canopy.

The G-Link does not have the bellybar or snack tray we'd love to see on our top picks. However, these features aren't necessary for umbrella strollers. As with any umbrella stroller, it needs to be used with care to ensure that fingers - whether your own or children's get stuck in the hinges that fold up the frame and mechanisms.

In most double umbrella strollers, the seats are side-by-side. However, there are models with inline seating (one seat is in front of the other). Inline models are easier to navigate through doorways than side by side models however their seating arrangements could cause your kids to fight over the best seat. Our previous testers were pretty equally divided on this issue It's an individual decision.

Safety

The safety of your children must be the top consideration when selecting a stroller and the design of a double umbrella stroller can make or break the quality of its operation. Some models are close to offering the same level safety as the full-sized double strollers. They typically come with 5-point harnesses as well as feet and calf rests for kids, as well as an extendable UPF 50+ sunvisor. They are usually narrower and lighter than other double umbrella strollers. This makes them easier to maneuver in tight spaces such as airports and city streets.

Certain models, like the Kinderwagon Hop, are side-by-sides and are especially easy to push through small spaces. This stroller is ideal for parents traveling with young kids and needing a simple and quick way to get around. It's also compact enough to fit in the trunk of a car.


The UPPAbaby G-Link 2 is another model that is worth a look. It is one of the lightest double strollers we have test-driven. It has a surprisingly robust design for an umbrella style product. It also comes with a large, easily accessible storage basket as well as reclining chairs and an open window. The seat can also hold 35 lbs and meets Disney stroller dimensions.

Other models, like the Jeep PowerGlide double stroller, are more bare-bones in design and might not have as many features. However they are very lightweight and can be used as a backup for travel purposes on occasion. They are also less expensive than renting one for a whole vacation or trip. They are also easy to carry, lift and fold.
