11 Ways To Completely Redesign Your Lightest Double Stroller
Lightest Double Stroller
If you're looking for a light double-stroller that folds, the dimensions and weight are key factors to consider. When you are not using it, select one that is simple to use and small in size. This makes it easier to store it in your car trunk and to navigate through airport security and foreign roads.
The best lightweight strollers have an easy, intuitive fold that lets them stand on their own. This helps reduce stress on the parent's body. Many also come with a wide selection of seating options and can accommodate infant car seat carriers.
Kolcraft Cloud Plus
Designed for families who are constantly on moving. Compact and light weight, it has an easy fold with one hand. The front suspension and all-terrain wheel, as well as the multi-position reclining seats allow for children to weigh up 50 pounds. The trays for parents and children and a large storage basket and a 3-tiered canopy with peekaboo window provide maximum sun protection.
The Cloud received one of the lowest scores in our tests of quality because it has a thin, hard plastic seat and a style that is dated. It's also more expensive than other lightweight strollers, so it's not a good choice when you're looking for a budget alternative.
Although it's not the lightest double seat stroller stroller, it does have enough features to be worth a look. The swiveling wheels make it easy for you to move it around flat surfaces. It can also jump curbs with ease. The Cloud's low, knee-high handle is a drawback. It's not adjustable and it's not adjustable. It's not a comfortable thing to push with your legs suspended in the air and it's not helping that it's not cushioned.
During our testing, we discovered the Cloud to be simple to set up and open. It's a bit more complicated to close, however. You have to slide a slider before you pull a big white button to cause it to collapse. This can be quite a hassle especially if you're juggling kids while doing it.
The Cloud comes with a small but deep storage basket that will fit a medium diaper bag. The basket is a bit narrow and you may have to put something in it to reach the back. The Cloud includes a child and parent tray with two cup holders however, they're both too narrow to comfortably hold larger cups or bottles.

Jeep Destination Ultralight SBS
Jeep Destination Ultralight SBS is a fairly barebones lightweight double stroller that's great to travel with. It's light at 18 pounds (lighter than many single strollers!) It folds flat to make it easy to transport and store. It also comes with independently reclined seats as well as large SPF 50 sunvisors that have a peekaboo window. The visors are adjustable to accommodate children of different heights. It also comes with a parking brake that is linked in one step and is Disney-sized approved.
Jeep's swivel wheel system is also great for maneuvering over bumps and uneven terrain. However, this stroller doesn't accept car seats so your kids must be at least six months old and have a solid neck control in order to ride in the front seat. The stroller has a three-panel sun canopy and each seat comes with its own cupholder and snack tray.
Another stroller that is extremely light is the Valco Baby Snap Duo Trend. It's heavier than Kolcraft Cloud Plus, at 23 pounds. However, it's tinier and slimmer (26.5 inches wide!) and is packed with luxurious details that make it perfect for travel. It is easy to fold, is very maneuverable and can fit in trunks and overhead compartments of airplanes easily.
The Joovy Kooper X2 tri-folds and is ultralight, like the Summer Infant 3D Pac CS+ Double or Mountain Buggy Nano Duo. It's similar to the Jeep Destination Ultralight SBS but has a few key differences. It's a little more expensive but has a better sun canopy and more maneuverability. It comes with a handy carrying strap and can accommodate children who weigh up to 44 pounds for each seat.
Summer Infant 3D Pac CS+
Summer Infant 3D Pac CS+ is a lightweight stroller with lots of features. It's not just incredibly light at just 13 pounds, but it has plenty of storage in the form of child and parent cup holders, a sippy cup for children pocket, a parent storage pocket and much more. It can also be used with the car seat of a child and has an easy-to-engage brake that flips. This stroller is designed to grow with your child. It can be transformed twin pushchair from birth a baby to a toddler stroller simply by attaching the car seat adapters (sold separately) and it's suitable for children six months and over.
Another thing to take note of about this stroller is that it only operates on swivel wheels, and doesn't have any locking capabilities therefore it may not be the best choice for rocky or hilly terrain. It is able to maneuver well on sidewalks that are paved and other smooth surfaces it's an excellent option for most families.
This is among the most compact and lightweight double strollers, with all-size features. It folds easily with one hand and put away in the garage or trunk. It is also able to be used as an infant stroller and is compatible with all car seats without the need for additional adapters.
Contrary to the majority of lightweight strollers, the Summer Infant 3D Pac CS+ features two seats that can carry up to 50 pounds per seat (100 lbs total). The seats feature individual leg rests, as well as three-panel canopy that has the ability to flip out sunvisors and a peekaboo window.
The seats are padded for your baby's comfort and come with a padded 5-point safety harness that can be adjusted to three height positions. Each comes with an infant cushion, which is great for newborns. Parents will love the cup holders for parents and children, along with the child's cup holders, the cell phone holder, and large storage basket. The stroller can also be purchased with the Yoyo+ Board which transforms it into a tandem double stroller.
Joovy Kooper X2
The Kooper X2 stokke double Stroller stroller is a great choice for parents looking for an easy-to-use double that can hold two kids. Its sling style seats are comfortable, and offer the same amount of headroom as other double strollers. This lets kids sit together. In contrast to other strollers that are side-by-side that are available, the Kooper X2 offers a fully reclined seat that's ideal for napping. The recline mechanism is simple to operate but it isn't genuinely flat; taller kids may notice a dangling leg when sitting in a reclined posture. It also has a huge canopy that we found to be more effective at blocking out sun than other options in our review of the best double strollers.
The stroller is light enough to easily navigate through door frames, which was a major problem for us with some other models in our testing. It folds easily and the handlebars are close to the ground. Its only downside is its small storage space, which feels tight when stuffed with kids' toys.
Joovy is a family-owned business that creates original, functional and quality baby products. Their range includes unique bottles in our best baby bottle review, interesting strollers such as the Joovy Zoom X2 Double and a unique rain cover that can be fitted to various popular strollers. The prices are reasonable and often have fun designs that are appealing to children.
During our lab tests of pushchairs double strollers, we look at multiple factors to determine how easy an item is to use, including how easy it is to fold and set up and adjust the safety harness, close and open the brakes, lift and carry the folded stroller like you would put it in a trunk of a car, and then install and remove an infant car seat (if appropriate). We also looked at the durability and strength of the stroller, as well as whether each model has a tray for parents that can be used by both children.
The Joovy Kooper X2 earned the top score for its ease of use in our most recent edition of our top pushchairs double strollers guide, as well as one of the highest scores in our Strollers test program overall. Its easy-to-use design includes one-hand recline that is tilt-free with a huge canopy that rotates forward for shade, and features a mesh for ventilation that you can see through when it's tilted. It also has individual child trays with built-in cupholders, zipper parent pockets as well as a huge storage basket.
