Lightweight Double Stroller Lightweight double strollers are a godsend for families with two kids who need to move from point A to point B. These strollers are narrow and have separate reclined seats as well as easy-to-use sunshades. This lightweight twin stroller weighs just 24 lbs with the child seats in place. It folds compactly that's self-standing and the strap for carrying it in the trunk of your car or taking on vacation. Side-by-Side The dimensions, quality, and weight of a double stroller significantly impact how easy it is to push. The type of tires, wheels and suspension, in addition to weight and size affect how easily a double stroller can be turned and moved in tight spaces. Of course the number of kids and the amount of things you have in them also determines how difficult or easy it is to push. Side-by-side models come with two seats that are next to each other. They are considered to be more maneuverable than tandems or front-to-back models. However, the larger frame of a stroller that is side-by-side often means it's harder to fit through standard doors. A side-byside stroller isn't able to fit the car seat of your child comfortably, based on its height. The seat backs on side-by-side strollers are typically lower than single strollers. This makes it more difficult for older children to see the surroundings or converse with their friends. And, if your kids are different in age the seating arrangement may cause sibling rivalries over who sits in which spot. On the other hand, a tandem stroller can be a great choice for siblings who are similar in age. This type of double stroller is more maneuverable and comes with an increased resale value than other types. The only drawback is that a tandem stroller may be more expensive than a side-by-side model. If you're a keen athlete and plan to take your stroller for long walks or runs it is worthwhile to invest in a compact double stroller that has a smooth suspension. These strollers are larger and more durable wheels than regular double strollers and are able to handle off-road and pavement terrain. These strollers are usually heavier than standard side-byside strollers, but they are also easier to maneuver and are more secure. The Baby Jogger City Mini GT2 Double Stroller offers a great example of a light tandem stroller that is affordable and of high-end. It's also compatible with wide range of infant car seats, making it an excellent option for twins. Tandem If your family is growing with the addition of a second baby or twins, or if you have a toddler and a younger infant there are many options for a double stroller. If you're in search of an asymmetrical twin or a tandem front-to-back model you'll need to consider the size and maneuverability of each, and also the amount of storage space available for bags and other equipment. Tandem strollers have a narrower profile than side-by-side models. They may be easier to maneuver around crowded areas or in tight aisles of stores. However, they're not as easy to fold as single-to-double models and can be a hassle to carry around when filled with cargo and children. The UPPAbaby Vista is our top option for a light tandem stroller that can be used in a variety of scenarios. It is a top choice among families with just one child. It comes with a toddler's seat that can be used in conjunction with the stroller, as well as a modular Rumble Seat which can be used for another child later (carriers are sold separately). The seats are large, comfortable, and feature deep seat adjustments. The canopy is also spaciously big and has peekaboo windows, and both seats recline independently of one other. Another good choice for a lightweight tandem is the Jogger City Select. It's a jogging stroller that's ideal for families with two kids or parents who love to take their children hiking and on park trails. The seats are comfortable and spacious, with adjustable leg and foot rests. The canopy is a little smaller than our other light double strollers. However, they have large pop-out shades that are SPF 50. Other important features to look for in a lightweight double stroller include a single-handed self-standing fold; a simple, one-parent brake; and straps that are padded around the waist and shoulders for extra comfort. We also like an ample, easy-to-access under-seat storage basket as well as back and side pockets. If you're planning on taking your kids for frequent jogging, consider the double jogger. It's quick and agile, with a wide cushioned handlebar that makes steering simple and a sturdy frame that can support the extra weight of two children. Front-to-Back A double stroller is the only method to transport two kids who are at the edge or walking. A double umbrella stroller is an inexpensive compact option that allows your oldest to sit in the back, and your youngest to stand or walk alongside you while you shop, dine out and explore. Our test subjects didn't like this type of stroller however, because it tends to have flimsy-feeling frames and wobbly wheels. Some have exposed rough fasteners or materials that aren't skin-friendly. Moreover, the front seat is also small and shallow. Parents have reported that their children can slide out of the front seat if not properly buckled. And the 5-point harnesses can be a bit flimsy, which can chafe bare skin. However, the Baby Trend Sit N' Stand Double is surprisingly light and folds easily for transport in small trunks and cars. And it accepts two infant car seats, which is a great option for families with young babies or toddlers on the move. Tandem strollers offer more space than side-byside options, making them an ideal option for urban dwellers. They can be difficult to maneuver on grass, unpaved pathways and curbs. They take up more space when folded than side-byside models, which can pose a problem for those with smaller homes or apartments.

If you intend to use your stroller in congested urban areas, you need to choose one that's easy to steer around, turn and push.

If you're in the market for a light double stroller, it's crucial to think about how you intend to use it. Some parents choose a single-to-double stroller that can be converted to double as they have their child, and then add another seat as their family grows. This may be an ideal idea at the time but we've found that families are better off investing in a lightweight, double stroller that is designed specifically for their child's stage and age. The best double strollers for compacts come in a variety configurations and features. They have plenty of storage space, cup holders for adults, several cups, adjustable handlebars and canopies with peekaboo windows. Some even come with a built-in bassinet, making them ideal for newborns and infants. They are small in footprint and fold down nearly flat, which makes them a great option for parents who have little storage space at home or while traveling. When choosing a lightweight double-stroller, it is important to consider how it performs in different types of terrain and surfaces. Some strollers are difficult to maneuver through tight spaces and up curbs while others can handle more challenging terrain. For instance certain strollers for jogging have special suspension that helps them glide over rough and concrete ground without jostling the rider. It's also a good idea to measure the weight of each stroller prior to you buy. The lighter the stroller and the more comfortable it will be to push and carry. The Joovy Caboose Ultralight Graphite was the lightest stroller we tested, with a weight of close to 23 lbs. Most of the models that we recommend in this guide weigh between 30 and 40 pounds.
