What to Look for in a Double Umbrella Stroller

  • Weight- The whole idea is to find the lightest possible stroller that your kids fit comfortably in and that you enjoy pushing.
  • Folded Size- Again, this is for traveling and convenience so you want to find a double umbrella stroller that folds neatly and is compact.
  • Unfolding & Folding- For a double umbrella stroller to be truly convenient, it has to do these things with ease. You want it to be easy and quick especially if your purpose in having one is for travel.
  • Seats- There is tons of variance in seating in double umbrella strollers. Those with reclining seats and feet rests should be at the top of your list because they make naptime possible!
  • Harness- What kind of harness you prefer is really a personal decision, just make sure it is something that will hold your little one in safely and comfortably. The safest option is always a five-point harness. You may also want to check how easy they are to adjust and buckle/unbuckle.
  • How it Pushes- Since umbrella strollers are so lightweight, they can be a little hard to maneuver. If you can run to a Buy Buy Baby or similar store to test some out with your kids sitting in them and see how it feels.
  • Accessories- These may be limited, but you can still have a list of accessories you would really like to have in your stroller like canopies or storage space.

Why Choose a Double Umbrella Stroller?

You are probably wondering why I am such a fan of the conveniences that umbrella strollers offer, so just hear me out. They are literally designed to be lightweight and break down in the most compact way possible. This means they are easy-peezy for one parent to whip out of the trunk of even the smallest sedans and accomplish whatever the day holds. And since I am a mighty 5′ 1″ having something lightweight is a pretty nice option.

Half of my life these days seems to be running errands and it’s way too big of a hassle to get anything bigger than an umbrella stroller out, just to be put back in after a run through Target.

Another thing they do well? Travel! Our family loves to travel, but all little ones need a break from the go-go-go mindset that can come along with that.

Bringing a stroller along that they can rest in makes everyone a happy camper. I do not want to be carrying my toddler around and as much as I would like to think frequenting the gym makes me capable of toting her all over on adventures, this mama’s arms get tired.

If you’ve got two kiddos from 1-5 years old, I say just go for it. Try out a double umbrella stroller. It’ll simplify your everyday life and your travels.

Keep in mind, I’m not trying to imply that you don’t need your nice big fancy double stroller. Depending on your family, you might be the kind of person who needs both the fancy stroller and the umbrella stroller.

Overall, there are some incredible options out there for double umbrella strollers. We will continue updating this article as more new models arrive!
