Why choose a double umbrella stroller?
You’re probably wondering why I’m such a fan of the convenience of umbrella strollers, so hear me out. They are literally designed to be light and break in the most compact way. That means it’s easy for one parent to get them out of the trunk of even the smallest sedans and get on with whatever the day has in store. And since I’m a mighty 5′ 1″ having something lightweight is a really nice option.
Half my life these days seems to be running errands, and it’s too much of a hassle to take out anything bigger than an umbrella stroller just to put it back on after a run to Target.
Do they do anything else well? Journey! Our family loves it journeybut all little ones need a break from the go-go-go mentality that can come along with it.
sirattling a cart as far as they can rest makes you all happy campers. I don’t want to carry my baby around and as much as I think going to the gym makes me able to carry my baby everywhere on adventures, this mom’s arms get tired.
If you have two kids ages 1-5, I say go for it. Try a double umbrella stroller. It will simplify your daily life and your travels.
Mind you, I’m not trying to imply that you don’t need your nice big fancy double stroller. Depending on your family, you may be the type of person who needs both the fancy stroller and the umbrella stroller.
Overall, there are some incredible options for double umbrella strollers. We will continue to update this article as more new models arrive!
Frequent questions

I recommend a strong side-by-side stroller when you have a toddler and a baby. The City Mini is the best double stroller when it comes to having a toddler and a baby.
