One of the most fabulous presents you can ever gift your wife and twins with is a twinumbrella stroller. It is that useful and ‘almost-priceless’ piece of convenience, especially when you need to travel.

With it, your twins will travel safely and comfortably whenever they need to. Also, you will never experience any dilemma bringing the kids around, whether when you’re shopping for some groceries, on your afternoon walks, or even for a flight.

What is a double umbrella stroller?

Double strollers have been reigning supreme since the Baby Boom of the 2nd World War, albeit most of today’s brands are a lot refined and efficient. Technologies employed in their creation have changed, resulting in more sophisticated brands.

These brands predominantly feature cozy seats, slightly curved handles and foldable canopies and other more advanced features. Further, the degree of their weight and how easy they can be pushed and guarantee comfy rides vary.

Of course, they aren’t similarly priced as well. The bestumbrella strollers aren’t unnecessarily expensive – some are ridiculously cheap – sometimes even costing under $100.

Need to buy a twin stroller?

Despite being useful and thus recommended for newborns, toddlers, and pre-schoolers, you shouldn’t rush into buying one without knowing which amongst them suits your lovely kid. Mostly, a double umbrella stroller should restfully accommodate two kids and ensure smooth, comfy rides even in rough terrains.

A Comprehensive Buyer’s Guide

If you thought buying double umbrella strollers is a mere walk, think again. Almost like single strollers, baby joggers or other popular jogging strollers, a double umbrella stroller can be hard to choose and buy.

Due to the different features, specifications, and areas of application as well as the buyer’s budget, the whole process can be confusing and overwhelming. And that’s why a bit of research and sobriety while buying one is critical.

Key Factors to Looking At When Buying a Twin Stroller:

1. Should be an absolute convenience – the stroller must be remarkably easy to fold and unfold and lightweight enough to be pushed about. The seats must also be easy to clean and adjust and with harness belts for the safety of the twins.
2. Seats should recline independently – for the comfort of your beautiful twins, ensure the seat can adjust smoothly and independently. This feature will prove very useful when the toddlers aren’t of the same age or when you just feel like adjusting each seat individually.
3. Storage – as well as helping carry your little ones around, the stroller must have a storage basket large enough to hold your keys, wallet, phone, water bottle and perhaps extra diapers.
4. Weight it can accommodate – a quality double stroller should reliably support up to 200lbs.
5. Type of stroller – double ones are of different variations based on their distinct constructions.

• Tandem Strollers ones have their seats fastened to one another and are narrow enough to navigate tight spaces.
• Side by Side strollers are widely popular since they’re roomy and easily convertible.
• Sit and Stand aren’t very popular given that only 3-5-year-olds prefer them.
• Stadium-style seating strollers have a front and back seat with the rear seat slightly raised, and the two seats can fully recline.

12. Guzzie+Guss Twice

It might sound like another new brand to you, but in Canada, Guzzie+Guss is a household brand. Most of its popularity is down to the quality and price of the twin strollers it makes.

It’s probably the only company whose strollers allow users to bend the seat to a near-reclining position before locking the front wheels.

It weighs 18lbs, but will carry as much as 45lbs per seat. Incredibly, this stroller’s reflective strips are made for perfect night visibility.

11. Maxi Cosi Dana For 2

While twin strollers are called so because they have two seats, most of them are designed to accommodate perfect twins and an infant-toddler combination.

What makes Maxi Cosi Dana For 2 unique, however, is the fact that it is ideal for an infant-toddler combination. Naturally, it has two seats – a roomy one and a small one.

Pros

• Two roomy seats; each can accommodate a kid of up to 40lbs each.

10. Dream on Me Double Twin Stroller

Being lightweight and having a generous amount of storage space is everything to you when buying a double stroller then Dream on Me Double Twin Stroller is here for you. Though it is another budget-stroller, its overall weight (25lbs) and the ample storage space enough to pack up everything you need means it is an excellent choice.

You might have never heard of this Dream on Me Double Twin Stroller before, but its reputation is excellent. Just like the other premium ones, it has reclining seats, five-point safety harnesses, and adjustable canopies and thus can be relied on. Also, it can carry up to 40lbs per seat and will last until your twins grow and start to walk on their own.

Pros

• Lightweight, compact and sound as if you need an extra storage compartment.

Verdict

9. Delta Children LX Side by Side

I’ll call it an economic pick, ideal for travelers and rightly so given its budget-friendly price. Though its features are the basic, “must-haves” with nothing extra, it isn’t of shoddy, inferior quality. In fact, it is incredibly lightweight, folds compactly and has a 5-point harness.

The best thing about Delta isn’t its two hanging storage bags on the rear. Given that it has shock-absorbing front wheels and comes with a limited warranty, there’s little doubt it is a great choice. Its only notable issue is the reclining system – it doesn’t recline smoothly like that of the other higher-end models herein.

Pros

• Weighs just 25lbs, but can carry up to 45lbs per seat.
• Individual reclining seats and canopies are of standard size.
• 5-point safety harness makes it one of the best, most-preferred for traveling with.
• Shock-absorbing wheels equal safe, comfortable rides.
• Comes in four different colors.
• The manufacturer offers free replacement parts when there’s a premature breakdown.

Cons

• Reclining system not very efficient and reliable.
• Canopy is a bit too little.
•  Handles are too small.

Verdict

Despite its affordable price, this double stroller is only great if you need it for short-term use. You can buy it to bring along when going on a vacation or when you need an alternative to your primary stroller.

8. UPPAbaby G-Link Stroller

If you are here, looking for a double stroller that you will use daily and will never fail or break down, then UPPAbaby G-Link Stroller is what you should pick. UPPAbaby is a distinguished name in the world of stroller manufacturers, regularly releasing luxury strollers of unquestionable quality.

About this UPPAbaby G-Link Stroller, it surely has everything common among premium quality brands. Its seats and footrests recline smoothly and independently, thus great for the toddlers’ different nap times.

Also, the very generous weight limit of 50lbs per seat, great canopies, the peekaboo window as well as its unique steering system and high-performance wheels means you’ll literally own a “Cadillac of double umbrella strollers.”

Pros

• Independent reclining seats and adjustable footrest.
• Weighs 25lbs, thanks to its compact and lightweight, aluminum frame.
• Its extendable canopies with SPF 50+ mean it’s great to protect your little ones from the sun’s rays.
• Removable, machine washable seat fabric, great for your messy little twins.
• Maneuvers with ease to give the twins smooth rides.
• Narrow and tiny; thus perfect for everyday use and airline travel.

7. Chicco Echo Twin

Looking to buy a basic, but well-engineered canopy stroller for two?

Here’s what you could be looking for – the single most popular umbrella stroller in the whole of Europe. Chicco Echo Twin is assembled in the US, but what many admire in it is because it’s sturdy, slim and ergonomically easy-to-carry and the European wheel design.

As much as maneuverability is what makes a double stroller excellent, Chicco Echo Twin is better since it has a unique turning radius, a factor that makes movements a breeze. As for the comfort of your twins, it has embroidered seat pads, embellished backrests, and independent 4-tiered full reclines. This, of course, is what majority of Double Strollers lack.

Pros

• Compact with a convenient carrying handle that makes storage and traveling a lot smoother.
• Each seat comes with a maximum weight capacity of 40 lbs.
• Each seat reclines smoothly and independently, giving you extra convenience.
• Pushes better than many double strollers out there, and has been proven to be a favorite for towering individuals.
• Known for smooth rides, thanks to the expertly suspended non-swivel dual front wheels.
• Affordable price!

Cons

• At 37 lbs, it is a bit bulky and cumbersome; also not ideal for newborns.
• Not reliably compact and wobbles when hastily pushed, also doesn’t recline flat while its canopy is a little smaller.
• Despite having a detailed braking system, the fact that you’ve got to push each independently is a let-down.

Verdict

When push comes to shove, buy this well-engineered canopy stroller for two.

6. Kolcraft Cloud Side by Side Stroller

For a travel-friendly twin stroller that will smoothly fit in the trunk of your car, do choose Kolcraft Cloud Side by Side Stroller. It isn’t just another twin side-by-side stroller, though it’s mainly cool for pre-school going kids. This stroller belongs to the few elite double strollers known to conform to quality safety and performance standard!

At about 21 lbs, this twin stroller is so stable and lightweight that it can maneuver with a single hand pushing it. Its construction that comprises terrific suspension system on its front all-terrain wheels, ultra-comfortable seats and multi-recline feature means it is among the best double strollers by right. It’s the undisputed king of budget twin umbrellas.

Pros

• Has a 3-point harness, perfect for the safety of your kids.
• Has an artistic three-tier extended canopy that protects your kids from the sun’s harmful rays.
• Remarkably stable, compact and lightweight and will last longer than ordinary brands.

Verdict

It’s so lightweight that you push it with a single hand, almost effortlessly. Also, it is very durable and, of course, recommended for budget shoppers!

5. Joovy Twin Groove Ultralight

Joovy has for years carved out a reputation of releasing modern and stylish products, and there’s no doubt this Joovy Twin Groove Ultralight isn’t any different. Everything from its weight (26lbs), construction, and recline, ease of use and price is just perfect.

Its flat recline feature is great for the kids as it allows them to sleep comfortably. Given that it comes with super-comfy seats and can support toddlers weighing up to 50lbs each, I’d expect you to opt for it if you’re looking for a twin stroller for newborns.

And rightly so; has humongous canopies, baskets under the seats and two pouches on the back to aid in carrying baby stuff.

Pros

• Newborn-ready twin stroller.
• Plenty of storage space.
• Safe, stable, convenient and comfortable – seats recline independently; canopy has UPF 50 UV ray protection, and the stroller doesn’t wobble.
• Its auto-fold lock and shoulder straps are just amazing!
• Easy pushing, thanks to the comfortable padding on its handlebars.
• Weighs just 26 lbs, thus reliably infant.

Cons

• Price – at $300, yet some are costing as little as $100, it prices out many of its admirers.

Verdict

Its 5-star features and the manufacturer’s proven reputation aside, if you’d like an easily folded, easily carried twin stroller, this Joovy Twin Groove Ultralight has your back.

4. Maclaren Twin Triumph

For anyone looking for a “compact, easy to transport” type of double stroller, here’s what they will most certainly prefer. Its modern, no-fuss design and the 22lbs it weighs, yet it can reliably accommodate 110 lbs of combined weight means it is a great favorite. It is incredibly narrow too, perhaps ideal for ordinary doorways.

You’ll never have to worry about always moving it in and out of your car since it folds almost easily. For the comfort of your children, the seats of this Maclaren Twin Triumph can recline independently, while its hood is water resistant for guaranteed protection.

There’s a lot to write and praise this double stroller, but one thing about it is for certain – it is an ultimate choice if you’d like to buy any that lasts.

3. Schwinn Turismo Swivel Double Jogger

As your twins transition from crawling to toddling, they deserve a matching stroller to accelerate the changeover.

Honestly, I’d recommend Schwinn Turismo, a high-end ergonomic stroller with huge tires, an underneath basket, the firm handles and terrific construction. It even includes MP3 speakers to keep the little angels amused throughout the ride.

Having 4-star rating means it isn’t overly a great favorite for many. But among the beautiful features of this double stroller is the ease of pushing and controlling, thanks to the humongous wheels. The cute-looking, warm and comfy shady seats lined side by side is a plus since kids won’t see each other.

Pros

• Lightweight and arrives fully assembled weighing about 30 pounds and thus 100% portable.
• It is arguably every frugal buyer’s best choice going by the amount of weight it can accommodate.
• The 3-point harness to fasten the kid while pushing means it’s the safest for small kids.
• Very comfortable and convenient and ridiculously cheap!

Cons

• With no brakes, it isn’t a favorite choice for starters.
• Minimalist storage space might limit its convenience.
• Seats don’t recline.

Verdict

No stadium-style seating stroller is as compact and stable as it is and can comfortably accommodate comfy seating of two babies. Also, for its price, this stroller is an excellent choice.

2. Dragonfly Graco DuoGlider Classic Connect Stroller

For a growing family with kids of up to 40lbs each, this stadium-style seating stroller is their perfect choice. With an exceptional level of versatility and the comfort that befits a newborn, Dragonfly Graco DuoGlider is ideal for you in every bit of it.

The rear seat reclines to guarantee extra comfort for your sleeping toddler, and this stroller is trendy amongst those looking for a model that blends with their car seats.

What you might not like about this Dragonfly Classic Stroller, however, is its weight and compactness – weighs 30.7 lbs. It doesn’t guarantee cheerful rides since it does not come with any brakes and the body tends to shake in rough terrains. But all in all, this one-hand fold stroller can be a perfect pick given its price!

Pros

• Lightweight and arrives fully assembled weighing about 30 pounds and thus 100% portable.
• It is arguably every frugal buyer’s best choice going by the amount of weight it can accommodate.

• Seats don’t recline.

Verdict

No stadium-style seating stroller is as compact and stable as it is and can comfortably accommodate comfy seating of two babies. Also, for its price, this stroller is an excellent choice.

It super-light at just 16lbs and makes a good companion for globetrotters. But if you seldom travel, don’t worry because this twin stroller serves you and your lovely angels correctly as well.

Its reclining feature means comfy, joyous rides while its three cup holders and snack tray save you the hassle of clutching onto your stuff. The “deal-maker,” however, is the “lifetime guarantee on all wheels,” a factor that saves you the need to replace its wheels in the future!
