A compact double umbrella stroller is a popular option for families that travel together.

Other options that are lightweight such as the Joovy Kooper X2, have more bells and whistles you might expect from a double umbrella stroller, including a more comfortable ride for both children because of the padded seating and a deeper recline in each seat. It's important to remember that the more features you pick the more your stroller will weigh. Also, because of the way strollers open and close, you'll want to be careful not to let tiny fingers get caught on frames or hinges, especially when your child is seated in either seat.

There are two general styles of double umbrellas that are lightweight one of which is one with a limited number of features, and those that provide numerous comfort and convenience features, in addition to their small size and lightweight weight. Some of the best examples are large pop-out umbrellas with SPF 50, windows that peek out and seating cushions. They also come with five-point safety harnesses on both sides, adjustable leg rests as well as reclining seats. Other important aspects to consider are whether or not you want a tray for parents or car seat attachment and how much storage space each seat offers.

It also has the important 5-point safety harnesses that are in both seats, as well as peek-a-boo windows in their canopies.

One drawback of the G-Link is that it lacks the belly bar and snack tray we've come to see in our top picks, but they aren't the most important features to have on an umbrella stroller, anyway. Like all umbrella strollers, the G-Link must be handled with care to avoid fingers getting caught in the hinges and mechanisms.

This issue was pretty equally split among our previous test participants It really is the individual preference.

Although it's difficult to find a light double stroller that offers the same level of safety as larger strollers, some models are comparable. These strollers usually have 5-point harnesses as well as foot and calf rests for the kids, and an extendable UPF 50+ sun visor. They tend to be smaller and lighter than other double umbrella strollers. This makes them easier to maneuver through tight spaces such as airports and city streets.

Certain models, such as the Kinderwagon Hop are side-byside and are simple to push even in tiny spaces. This stroller is a great option for parents traveling with children and require a quick and easy way to get around. It's also small enough to fit in a trunk.
