Other options that are lightweight like the Joovy Kooper X2, offer more bells and whistles than you'd expect from a double stroller umbrella, such as a more comfy ride for both children due to the padded seats and deeper recline on each seat. The more features you choose the more weighty the stroller. Also, you should be careful that your child doesn't get their fingers on the hinges or frames of these strollers due to the way they open and close.

Compact

Easy to Fold

The simplest umbrella strollers fold down like umbrellas and weigh less than other models. This makes them easy to lift, carry, and stow for use when you don't want or need to bring your large stroller due to some reason (traveling on an airplane, exploring a foreign city, visiting grandma). They often come with fewer features than an all-inclusive stroller, but they should provide the basic features you require for a sun canopy and storage.

It's so basic, you might not be able to get your kids through the airport without causing a fuss. But it will make your trip more enjoyable.

Comfortable Seats

Most umbrella strollers aren't fitted with many bells and whistles because they only have one purpose: to get two children from one place to the other. That means they usually offer seats that are comfortable and spacious, but don't have reclining options or all-terrain wheels.

The UPPAbaby G-Link 2 is the only exception. It is a small and light double umbrella stroller with two seats that weigh just 18 lbs. This makes it a fantastic option for families who travel. It has excellent suspension, a large three-panel canopy that shields children from the sun and plenty of storage space in both seats, but not as much as our top selections. It has five-point safety belts in both seats, as well as a an open-air window in the canopy.

The only downside to the G-Link is that it does not have the belly bar and snack tray that we like to see in our top picks, however they aren't the most important features to have on an umbrella stroller, anyway. Like any umbrella stroller, it needs to be handled with care so that fingers - whether your own or children's get trapped in the folding frame hinges and mechanisms.

The seats in double umbrella strollers are typically side by side however, there are a few models that are inline (one seat behind the other). Inline models are more convenient to maneuver in doorways than side-byside models, but they often have a disparity between seating features which could cause your kids to fight over who gets the better seat. Our previous testers were pretty evenly divided on this matter, so it's really an individual choice.

Safety

Your child's safety should be a top priority when selecting a stroller and the design of a double umbrella stroller can make or break the quality of its operation. Some models come close to providing the same level safety as full-sized double strollers. These strollers usually have 5-point harnesses with foot rests, calf and calf straps for children, as well as an extendable UPF 50+ sun visor. They are usually narrower and lighter compared to other double umbrella strollers. This makes them easier to maneuver in tight spaces like airports or city streets.

Some models, like the Kinderwagon Hop, are side-by-sides and are particularly easy to push through small spaces. This stroller is ideal for parents traveling with children and those who require a comfortable and fast way to get around. It's also small enough to fit easily in the trunk or in a storage space.

Another model worth looking into is the UPPAbaby G-Link 2, which is among the most lightweight double umbrella strollers we've have tested.

The seat also holds 35 lbs and is able to meet Disney stroller dimensions.

Other models, like the Jeep PowerGlide double stroller, are more basic in appearance and might not have the same features. However, these strollers are still very lightweight and can be used as a backup or for occasional travel purposes. They're also less expensive than renting a stroller for the duration of a trip or vacation. They're easy to fold, lift, transport, Twin strollers for newborns and stow away.
