Features

When looking for a double-stroller there are a variety of factors to consider, such as whether you need a bassinet, a toddler seat, or a canopy. Other than these, the most important features of a lightweight double stroller is its mobility and ability to roll on different surfaces. The majority of the models that we tested are able to maneuver in tight spaces. However when you're thinking of taking your stroller off-road or over uneven terrain, you should choose one that's designed specifically for these conditions.

Some of the double strollers that are compact we've reviewed feature narrow frames which make them easier to maneuver and squeeze into tight spaces, like doors. They also have smaller, foam-filled wheels than jogging strollers, which makes them lighter and easier to push over bumpy or sandy terrain. This means they can be driven on snow or cobblestones.

If parents frequently travel, a compact and lightweight double stroller is a must. They generally fold flat and lock, making them easy to pack and carry. These models can be folded using just one hand, and will stand upright when folded.

We've tested several double strollers that fold into a small package. However, we've also tested a few models that are even smaller and can be stored in your car or at home. Some of these models have an integrated carry strap that makes them even more convenient to transport.

Some of the most affordable models in this category are convertible double strollers which allow you to transform them into single strollers as your children grow. The storage basket is able to accommodate both seats, and the adapter can be used to convert it into a baby car seat carrier. If you purchase an additional conversion kit they can be converted to toddler seats.

Design

One of the first things you should think about when buying strollers is where and what you'll use it for. This will help narrow down the options. A more robust design is important for those who plan to take it to the park or for long walks. It could also be the case for those who want to use their stroller with a car seat travel kit. In this instance you'll have to determine if the model you choose supports the type of car seat or bassinet you plan to use it with.

A quality double stroller should be capable of rolling and maneuvering across different surfaces. Most of the models we tested can do this, but the top ones have bigger wheels that glide over carpeting, grass and unpaved paths, sidewalks and curbs effortlessly.

We also looked for strollers that can take a beating and still fold compactly, preferably with a simple one-handed mechanism. It's important to have a stroller that is able to be folded in one hand, as most parents do not have two hands to carry their child and stroller at the same time. And since we all know that accidents happen and strollers are easy to clean will save you from a lot of frustration in the long run.

The top-rated strollers have features that make them stand out from the rest, such as self-standing, one-handed folding, and carrying straps for easy transport. These strollers also come with large pop-out canopies, windows that peek out and SPF 50 as well as adjustable support for the calf, reclining seats, and comfortable padding. We also like models that allow you to add a second passenger.

Many of the top double strollers are available in bundles which include car seats or bassinets. This is an excellent solution for parents who don't wish to buy separate products and worry about reassembling. But, it's important to keep in mind that these types of strollers generally have a lower product quality than standalone strollers. They may also be heavier and more difficult to navigate in tight spaces than other models.

Comfort

The stroller should be light enough that you can comfortably carry it without straining your back or arms. Most compact double strollers weigh not heavier than 24 pounds, and are between 25 and 30 inches wide. This is a lot lighter than the standard double stroller. The best double strollers feature comfortable seats with padded leg rests and easy-to fasten buckles.

Some compact double strollers feature an adjustable suspension, which helps you navigate uneven or rough pavement without feeling shaken. Others offer a swivel front wheel that lets you navigate in tight areas like shopping aisles or parking lots. The front wheels can be locked to stop them from turning, which is great for driving over rough surfaces like cobblestones or sand.

In addition to being lightweight, the best double strollers that are compact are designed to be as comfortable as is possible for parents and kids alike. They feature padded seats with leg rests, straps that are easy to fasten and UPF 50+ canopy which offer plenty of sun protection and peekaboo windows. These are also some of our largest strollers to use for storage. They have room for both mom and dad's stuff and the kids'..

A lot of the top double strollers designed for small spaces are also versatile. They let you change between different configurations using different seat attachments, or a ride on board. For instance, you could use the infant car seat adapter to put a baby in the front seat, then take it off it and put in a toddler seat for older siblings to ride along. It is possible to convert many models into tandem strollers which allow one child to sit in the rear, and the other one to sit in front.

The most important aspect of a compact double stroller is its ease of use. It is ideal to be able to fold it and carry it with just one hand. Also, you should be able to fit it into your car seat or trunk when not in use. A compact double stroller should fold in seconds and not be longer than a few inches when fully opened. It should be able to stand up on its own, and shouldn't require special tools to assemble or disassemble.

Stores

If you're in the market for a double stroller, search for models with ample storage. There should be plenty of space to store your necessities, whether it's groceries, toddler snacks, or two bags of toys for kids. The stroller should fold easily and compactly. When you are juggling an infant or purse, a diaper bag, or other bags, a one-handed folding stroller is a wonderful feature.

Some models feature a handlebar-adjacent shopping basket for easy access to small items. Some models have a spacious traditional undercarriage basket. And if you're looking for a specific type of stroller, look into features like the ability to attach a kickboard, or an infant car seat. Jogging strollers for instance, are designed with a smooth suspension that lets them glide across cobblestones and pavements while keeping their speed. Some models even come with a built-in child carrier to run with dogs and children. These strollers are more expensive than the basic all-terrain or recline models. They also require specialized tires for outdoor use.

Specialized car seat strollers such as the UPPAbaby Vista V2 are a good option for parents who want to use their stroller starting from birth. The Vista can hold two bassinets for infants (and sometimes an additional one in the optional RumbleSeat V2) and features simple frame clips for the removal or addition of seats and also incorporating accessories. It comes with a variety of seating configurations and, unlike other side-by-side walkers, this one doesn't have a massive footprint, which makes it difficult to navigate through doorways.

The less costly Graco DuoGlider Lux is another great option for families that plan to use their stroller from birth until toddlerhood. The DuoGlider has a decent-size basket and two storage bags hanging from the back of each seat. It can fit either an infant car seat, or a car seat for toddlers. It also includes a rainguard. It's heavier than the Vista but it provides plenty of versatility for the price.

Children traveling on their own require the right equipment, which includes a stroller that's easy to fold and carry. Most of our top choices fold flat and are lightweight and can be transported in most trunks or checked for gate-checking by planes.
