It has large canopies and a large storage container. It is also very easy to move. Lightweight The best double umbrella strollers are small and lightweight, but still offer a lot.

A compact double umbrella stroller is a favorite choice for families that travel together. It is easy to fold and can be tucked away in most trunks or carry-on bags for planes.

Some of the top double umbrella strollers, including the UPPAbaby G-Link 2, have certain features you won't see on lighter models. The double umbrella stroller comes with hanging storage pockets and trays inside each seat for children's toys and snacks as well as two parent cupholders. Its minimalist design makes it one of the smallest double umbrella strollers on the market. It folds easily and has an extra-wide canopy that protects both seats. Some other options that are light, like the Joovy Kooper X2, have more bells and whistles you might expect from a double umbrella stroller. It also offers a more comfortable ride for both kids thanks to padded seating and a more comfortable recline in each seat. The more features you pick the more weighty the stroller. Also, because of the way strollers open and close, you'll want to be cautious not to let little fingers get caught on hinges or frames, especially when your child is seated in either seat. Compact The tiniest double umbrella strollers that fold are easy to maneuver and can be tucked away in tight spaces. They're an excellent choice for parents who plan to take their stroller regularly on sidewalks, at shopping centers, or to travel around tourist destinations like the zoo, aquarium or museums. These compact, lightweight strollers are great for commutes, or as a backup stroller to a heavier stroller with more features while traveling. There are cheap double buggy of umbrellas that are lightweight with very few features, and those that come with many comfort and convenience options in addition to their tiny size. Some of the best examples include large pop-out umbrellas, with SPF 50, peekaboo windows and cushioned seats. They also come with 5-point safety harnesses on both sides, as well as adjustable leg rests and reclined seats. Other important aspects to consider are whether or not you want a tray for parents and car seat attachment capabilities and the amount of storage space each seat has. The Delta Children LX Double Umbrella is a great example of the bare-bones, no-frills option that is extremely lightweight and very affordable. The stroller weighs only 18 pounds and comes with an easy-to-carry strap for schlepping and fits easily into the trunk of your car or in a front closet when not in use. The front wheels are precise and swivel for an easier ride and smoother steering. Another option that is highly recommended is the new Kinderwagon Hop, a super narrow tandem umbrella stroller that's also lightweight and easy to maneuver through doors. The model was out of the market for a while however, it's returning to production and is worth checking out. It also comes with a bigger three-panel canopy to provide better sun protection over the smaller, basic models in this review. Easy to Fold The simplest umbrella strollers fold like umbrellas and weigh much less than other types of strollers. They are easy to carry, lift, and stow for use when you don't need or need to bring your large stroller due to some reason (traveling on an airplane, exploring an unfamiliar city, or visiting grandma). They typically have fewer features than a full-featured stroller, but they should provide the basic features you require for the sun canopy and storage. The most recent version of the UPPAbaby G-Link 2 is lighter and narrower than its predecessor, and has an improved front wheel structure that improves mobility and pushability. It's a great option 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 the size of a full-size stroller. This type of stroller is replacing the standard double umbrella stroller. It's probably the ideal choice if you're seeking a light, multi-purpose stroller. The majority of double umbrella strollers we recommend are side by side models. The Kinderwagon Hop is an umbrella tandem stroller that is light and easy to fold. It is also relatively narrow. This is a great option for those looking for a simple inexpensive double umbrella stroller you can easily throw in your trunk for quick trips. It even comes with two hanging storage bags on the sides of each seat, as well as cup holders for parents. It's so bare bones that it's not going to get your kids through an airport without getting them cranky, but it will to make the trip more comfortable. Comfortable Seats The majority of umbrella strollers don't come with a variety of bells and whistles because they're designed with one purpose: to take two children from one place to the other. That means they usually offer seats that are spacious and comfortable, but don't have reclining options or all-terrain wheels. The UPPAbaby G-Link 2 is the one exception. It's a surprisingly light and compact double umbrella stroller that has two seats that weigh only 18 lbs each, making it an ideal choice for anyone who travels (it is in line with Disney size requirements). It has a huge canopy with three panels that protect children from the sun. Both seats have ample storage, but not like some of our top picks. It also comes with the essential 5-point safety harnesses in both seats as well as windows that peek out in their canopies. One drawback of the G-Link is that it does not have the belly bar and snack tray we've come to see in our top picks, however they aren't necessary features for an umbrella stroller in the first place. Like all umbrella strollers, it must be handled with care to avoid fingers getting trapped in the hinges and mechanisms. In the majority of double umbrella strollers they have seats that are side-by-side. However, there are models with inline seating (one seat is in front of the other). Inline models are easier to maneuver through doors than side-by-side models, but they usually have a difference between the seating options which could cause your kids to argue over who gets the best seat. This was pretty equally split among our previous test subjects and it is a personal choice. Safety Your child's safety should be a top priority when selecting a stroller and the design of double umbrella strollers can determine the quality of its operation. While it's hard to find a lightweight double stroller that provides the same level of security as full-sized strollers, some models do come close. They typically come with 5-point harnesses with foot rests, calf and calf straps for children, and an extendable, UPF 50+ sun visor. They are typically also narrower and lighter than other double umbrella strollers, making them easier to maneuver in tight spaces such as airports or streets in cities. Some models, such as the Kinderwagon Hop, are side-by-sides and are particularly simple to maneuver through narrow spaces. This stroller is perfect for parents who travel with their children and those who require a comfortable and fast way to get around. It is also compact enough to fit into the trunk. Another option worth considering is the UPPAbaby G-Link 2, which is among the most lightweight double umbrella strollers we've have tested. It is surprisingly sturdy design for an umbrella style product. It also has an enormous, easily accessible storage basket with reclining seats, as well as a peekaboo window. The seat can also hold 35 pounds and is in line with Disney stroller dimensions. Other models, such as the Jeep PowerGlide double stroller, are more basic in appearance and might not have as many features. These strollers are lightweight and can be used for backups or even for occasional travel. They are also much cheaper than renting a stroller for the duration of a trip or vacation. They're also easy to fold, lift, transport and store away.
