Many families choose a light double umbrella stroller because it's a great stroller for traveling.

Additionally, due to the way strollers can be closed and opened you'll need to be careful not to let little fingers catch on frames or hinges, particularly when your child is in a seat or a chair.

Easy to Fold

The simplest umbrella strollers fold like umbrellas, and they weigh less than other models. They are easy to lift, carry and store when you don't need or can't bring your large stroller due to some reason (traveling on an airplane, touring an unfamiliar city, or visiting grandma). These strollers are typically not as feature-rich as full-featured models, but they should offer the basics like storage space and a sun canopy.

This kind of stroller is replacing the classic double umbrella stroller. It could be your best travel double stroller option if you are 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 extremely light and easy to fold (though it's also a bit narrow). This is a great option if you want a simple, cheap double infant strollers umbrella stroller you can easily throw in your trunk for short trips. It even has two storage bags hanging from the backs of each seat and cup holders for the parents. It's so basic, you could not get your kids through the airport without causing a fuss. But it will make your trip more comfortable.

Comfortable Seats

The majority of umbrella strollers don't come with much in the way of bells and whistles because they're made to only take two children twin buggy from birth point A to point B. That's why they generally have seats that are comfortable and spacious but do not have recline options or all-terrain wheels.

The UPPAbaby G-Link 2 is the one exception. It's a surprisingly light and compact double umbrella stroller with two seats that weigh less than 18 pounds each, which makes it an ideal choice for travelers (it does meet Disney size requirements). It comes with a large canopy with three panels that protect children from sun. Both seats offer a good amount of storage but not as much as our top picks. It comes with five-point safety belts in both seats, as well as the ability to peek into the canopy.

The G-Link isn't equipped with the bellybar or snack tray that we'd like to see on our top picks. But those features aren’t essential to an umbrella stroller. Like any umbrella stroller it should be handled with attention to avoid getting fingers stuck in hinges and mechanisms.

The seats in double umbrella strollers are usually side by side, but there are some models that are inline (one seat behind the other). Inline models can be easier to maneuver through doors than side-by-side models, but they often have a disparity in seating options which could cause your kids to fight over who gets the best seat. This issue was fairly evenly divided among our previous test participants It really comes down to the individual preference.

Safety

When you are choosing a stroller for your child safety should be the top priority. The design of a double stroller umbrella can make or break its performance. While it's hard to find a light double stroller that offers the same level of security as the full-sized strollers, a few models do come close. These strollers typically have 5-point harnesses as well as feet and calf rests for children, aswell as an extendable UPF 50+ sunvisor. They are usually narrower and lighter compared to other sit n stand double stroller umbrella strollers. This makes them easier to maneuver in tight spaces like airports or on city streets.

Certain models, such as the Kinderwagon Hop are side-byside and are easy to push in small spaces. This stroller is a great option for parents who are traveling with children and need a quick and easy way to get around. It's also compact enough to easily fit in a trunk or storage space.

The UPPAbaby G-Link 2 is another model that is worth a look. It is among the most lightweight double strollers we've examined. It is a robust design for an umbrella and comes with a large, accessible storage basket, reclining seats, and a peek-aboo window. The seat is also able to hold 35 pounds and is in line with Disney stroller size requirements.

Other models, like the Jeep PowerGlide Double Stroller, may be more basic in appearance and may not come with as many features. These strollers are lightweight and can be used for backups or occasional travel. They are also less expensive than renting one for a complete vacation or for a trip. They're easy to fold, lift, transport and store away.
