UPPAbaby G-Link 2 is an excellent, upscale double umbrella stroller that's manufactured well and folds compactly. It has large canopies as well as a huge storage bin, and is easy to maneuver.

Lightweight

The top double umbrella strollers are compact and lightweight, yet offer a lot. They're not as heavy as a conventional stroller or jogger and they're typically smaller when folded too. They lack the bells and whistles you'll find on full-size strollers, but they usually come with large canopy and ample storage space, and reclined seats.

Many families choose a lightweight double umbrella stroller because it's a great travel stroller. It's easy to fold, can be tucked away in the majority of trunks and carry-on bags, and is generally the best option for navigating the narrow streets and narrow doors. It's also less expensive than an extra-featured "travel stroller" which you could use for everyday walks.

Some of the top double umbrella strollers, like the UPPAbaby G-Link 2, have some features you won't find on the lighter options. This double umbrella stroller includes hanging storage pockets and trays inside each seat to store kids' toys and snacks and two parent cupholders. The sleek design makes this double umbrella stroller among the slimmest on the market. It also comes with an extra wide canopy that protects both seats.

Other options that are lightweight like the Joovy Kooper X2, have more bells and whistles you'd expect from a double umbrella stroller. It also offers a more comfortable ride for both children thanks to padded seating and a higher recline for each seat. The more features you choose, the heavier the stroller.

These strollers are a great choice for parents who will often use them on sidewalks, shopping malls, or to navigate tourist attractions like the zoo or aquarium. These lightweight strollers are compact and compact. are great for commuting, or as a backup stroller to a larger stroller with more features while traveling.

There are two general styles of umbrellas that are lightweight: those with very few features and those that include a number of comfort and convenience features in addition to their small double stroller size and lightweight weight. Some of the better examples include large pop-out umbrellas with SPF 50, peekaboo windows, padded seats, 5-point safety harnesses in both seat areas, reclining seats, and adjustable leg rests. Other important aspects to consider are whether or not you require a tray for your child, car seat attachment capability and how much storage space each seat has.

The Delta Children LX Double Umbrella is a great example of a simple, no-frills option that is incredibly light and very affordable. This stroller weighs just 18 lbs and includes a convenient carrying strap to carry it around. It fits easily into the trunk of your car or a front closet when not in use. The front wheels are made of precision technology and can swivel to give you more comfort and ease of steering. Another highly recommended option is the brand new Kinderwagon Hop, a super narrow tandem umbrella stroller that's lightweight and easy to maneuver through doors. The model was removed from the market for a few years however, it's back in production and is worth checking out. It also comes with a bigger three-panel canopy that offers better sun protection over the smaller, basic models in this review.

Easy to Fold

The simplest umbrella strollers fold up like umbrellas, and they weigh less than other kinds. They are simple to carry, lift and store away which makes them perfect for when you aren't able to carry your full-size stroller due to any reason (traveling via plane, traveling to in a new country, visiting grandma). These strollers are usually less feature-rich than full-featured models, but they will provide the basic features including storage and a sun canopy.

The latest version of the UPPAbaby G-Link 2 is lighter and narrower than the predecessor, with a more efficient front wheel structure that improves mobility and pushability. It's a great option for a double stroller, and it's Disney-approved!

A double buggy with car seat tri-folded stroller like the Joovy Kooper X2 offers all the convenience and convenience of an umbrella stroller within the same form as a large-sized stroller. This class of stroller is fast replacing the traditional double umbrella, and could be the best option for a flexible lightweight stroller to travel with.

The majority of double umbrella strollers that we recommend are side-by-side models. The exception is the Kinderwagon Hop, a tandem umbrella stroller that's super light and easy to fold (though it's also relatively small in width). This is a great choice if you want a simple inexpensive double umbrella stroller that you can easily put in your trunk for short trips. It even comes with two storage bags hanging from the backs of each seat as well as cup holders for parents. It's so basic, it might not be able to get your kids through the airport without causing noise. However, it will make your journey more comfortable.

Comfortable Seats

Most umbrella strollers don't have much in the way of bells and whistles, because they are intended to do one thing: take two children from point A to B. They typically have spacious, comfortable seats, but they don't have recline options or all terrain wheels.

The UPPAbaby G-Link 2 is the only exception. It is a lightweight and compact double umbrella stroller that comes with two seats that weigh only 18 lbs. This makes it a fantastic option for those who travel. It has excellent suspension, a large three-panel canopy that is able to shield children from the sun and plenty of storage space in both seats, but not as much as our top choices. It also has the important 5-point safety harnesses in both seats as well as windows that peek out in their canopies.

The only downside to the G-Link is that it doesn't 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 any umbrella stroller, it should be used with care so fingers, whether your own or children's get caught in the hinges of the frame that fold and mechanisms.

In most double umbrella strollers with seats, they are side-byside. However there are models that feature inline seating (one seat is in front of the other). Inline models are more convenient to maneuver through doors than side-by-side models, but they typically have a gap 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 testers and it boils down to an individual choice.

Safety

The safety of your children should be a top priority when you choose a stroller and the design of double umbrella strollers can affect the quality of its operation. Although it's difficult to find a light double pram stroller stroller that offers the same level of security as full-sized strollers, some models do come close. These strollers usually have 5-point harnesses and calf and feet rests for kids, as well being able to extend UPF 50and sunvisor. They are also usually narrower and lighter than other double umbrella strollers making them easier to maneuver through tight spaces like airports or city streets.

Certain models, like the Kinderwagon Hop, are side-by-sides and are particularly simple to maneuver through narrow spaces. This stroller is ideal for parents who are traveling with their children and who need a convenient and fast way to get around. It's also small enough to fit comfortably into a trunk or storage space.

The UPPAbaby G-Link 2 is another model that is worth a look. It is among the lightest double strollers we have tested. It is surprisingly sturdy design for an umbrella style product. It also has a large storage basket that is easily accessible with reclining seats, as well as an open window. The seat is also able to hold 35 lbs and meets Disney stroller size requirements.

Other models, like the Jeep PowerGlide double stroller, are more bare-bones in design and may not come with as many features. However, these strollers are still very lightweight and can be used as a backup or for travel purposes on occasion. These strollers are also cheaper than renting one for a complete vacation or for a trip. They are also easy to carry, lift and fold.
