Lightweight Double Stroller Lightweight double strollers can be lifesaver for families with two children who must get from point A point B. These strollers are narrow and have separate seating and sunshades that are easy to use. This lightweight twin stroller weighs just 24 lbs with the child seats in place. double pushchair with car seat folds down into a compact size that's self-standing and an adjustable carry strap that is perfect for schlepping in the trunk of your car or on vacation. Side-by-Side The size, quality, and weight of a double stroller greatly influence how easy it's to push. In addition to the size and weight, the kind of tires, wheels and suspension affect the ease with which a stroller turns and maneuvers in tight spaces. Of course the number of children and the amount of things you have in them also affects how difficult or easy it is to push. Side-byside models have two seats that are adjacent to each the 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 pass through standard doors. A side-byside stroller isn't able to fit your child's car seat comfortably, based on its height. The seat backs of side-byside strollers are typically lower than single strollers. This makes it more difficult for older children to see the scenery or talk to their peers. And, if your kids are different in age the seating arrangement could cause sibling rivalries about who sits in which seat. On the other side a tandem stroller can be a great choice for siblings that are close in age. This kind of stroller usually has a high resale price and is easier to navigate than other double strollers. A tandem stroller is more expensive than one with two side-by-side seats. If you're an avid runner and plan on using your stroller for long runs or walks it's a good idea to invest in a lightweight double jogging stroller with smooth suspension. These strollers have larger and more durable tires than standard double strollers and are able to handle off-road terrain and pavement. They're typically a bit heavier than the average side-by-side stroller, however they're also easier to maneuver and more stable. The Baby Jogger City Mini GT2 Double Stroller is a fantastic example of a light tandem stroller that is inexpensive and of top quality. It is also compatible with many infant car seats. This makes it an ideal option for twins. Tandem If your family is expanding with the addition of a second baby or twins, or if you have a toddler and a younger infant there are many options available for a double stroller. You'll need to take into consideration the size, maneuverability and storage space of each model. Tandem strollers have a narrower profile than side-by-side models. They are able to maneuver around crowded areas or in tight aisles of stores. They're not as simple to fold down as single-to-double models, and they can be heavy when packed with cargo and children. The UPPAbaby Vista is our top choice for a lightweight, all-around tandem stroller. It is a top choice among families with just one child. It includes a toddler seat that can be used with the stroller as well as a movable Rumble Seat that can be added for an additional child later (carriers are sold separately). The seats are large, comfortable, and feature deep seat adjustments. The canopy is also large sizeable and features peekaboo windows, and both seats recline independently of one other. Another good choice for a light tandem is the Jogger City Select. This jogging stroller is great for families who have two children or parents who love taking their kids on hikes and on trails through parks. The seats are comfortable and spacious, with adjustable foot and leg rests. The canopy is a little smaller than our other lightweight double strollers. However, they do have large pop-out shades that are SPF 50. Other features worth looking for in a lightweight double stroller include a one-handed self-standing fold, a one-parent brake that is easy to use and straps that are padded around the shoulders and waist to ensure comfort. We also appreciate an ample, easy-to-access under-seat storage basket and pockets on the sides and back. If you're planning to be taking your kiddos out for a run regularly, think about a double jogger that's designed to be fast and agile with a wide cushioned handlebar for comfortable steering and strong frame that can withstand the extra weight of two kids. Front-to-Back A double stroller is the best method to transport two kids who are at the edge or walking. A double umbrella stroller is a compact, inexpensive solution that lets you bring your child's oldest with you while you go shopping or eat out, or explore. This type of stroller was not one of our testers' favorites because it has flimsy frames and wobbly tires. Some even have exposed fasteners with rough edges and fabrics that aren't skin-friendly. Additionally the front seat is also small and sloping. Parents have complained that their children could slide out of the front seat if they're not properly buckled up. The 5-point harnesses can chafe the skin if too thin. The Baby Trend Sit N' Stand Double, however, is relatively lightweight and can be folded easily to fit in small trunks and cars. It accepts two infant car seats, which is perfect for families with toddlers, or for babies on the on the move. Tandem strollers are an excellent option for those who live in cities and have to navigate through tight spaces and on sidewalks, since they typically have more space than side-by-side alternatives. They can be difficult to navigate on unpaved paths, grass and curbs. And they typically take up more space than side-by-side models when folded. This can be a problem for families who live in small homes or apartments. Our double stroller reviews will help you select the most lightweight option for your family and you. If you plan to use your stroller in crowded urban areas, it's important to choose a model that is easy to steer around, turn and push. Families who plan to use their strollers less often will be able to afford to spend more for a model that has more features and seating options. Don't hesitate to look at other brands if you're searching for a light double stroller. The top models we recommend come in a variety of colors and feature a variety of additional features, including an adult tray, a foot brake, a large storage basket and much more. Compact If you have two children less than 5 years old a double stroller is a must-have piece of equipment. You can watch your toddler and look after your infant with the double stroller. It also frees up space in your car and allows you to traverse the aisles of crowded supermarkets and parks as well as city streets with just one set of hands. If you're in search of a stroller that is lightweight and double-seat, it's important to think about how you'll make use of it. Some parents opt for a single-to-double stroller that can be made a double once they have a child, and then add a seat as their family expands. While this may seem like a wise purchase at the time, we have discovered that it usually works out better for families to invest in a lightweight double stroller specifically made for their children's ages and stages. The best double stroller s for compacts come in a variety of styles and features. They have plenty of storage space, cup holders for adults with several cups, a movable handlebar and canopies with windows that peek out. Some of them even have an integrated bassinet, making them ideal for newborns as well as infants. They are compact and fold flat. This makes them a great choice for parents who have little storage space. Another thing to take into consideration when choosing a lightweight double stroller is its performance on various surfaces and terrain. Some strollers are difficult to maneuver through tight spaces and up curbs while others are able to handle more difficult terrain. For instance the jogging strollers come with special suspensions that allow them to glide across rough and paved ground without jostling the rider. It's also a good idea to measure the weight of each stroller before you buy. The lighter the stroller is, the easier it is to push and carry. The Joovy Caboose Ultralight Graphite was the lightest stroller that we tested, with a weight of close to 23lbs. Most of the models that we recommend in this guide weigh between 30 and 40 pounds.
