Lightest Double Stroller
When you're searching for a light double-stroller, the folded dimensions and weight are key aspects to take into consideration. Choosing one that's simple to use and compact when not when not in use makes it much easier to fit in the trunk of your car, and to maneuver through airport gates and foreign streets.
The best lightweight strollers have a simple, easy fold that allows them to stand on their own. This eases the burden on the parent's body. Many strollers have various seating options and some are able to accommodate infant car seats.
Kolcraft Cloud Plus
The design is geared towards families who are constantly on the move. Lightweight and compact, with the ability to fold in one hand. All-terrain wheels, front suspension and multi-position reclining seats can allow children to weigh up to 50 pounds. The tray for parents and kids, large storage basket, and a three-tiered canopy that has a windows that peek out at the sun provide maximum protection.
double running stroller has one of the lowest scores on our tests of quality due to its thin feel as well as hard plastic seats and a design that seems dated. It is also more expensive than other strollers with a lighter weight. This is a bad choice for those looking for the cheapest option.
It's not the most light stroller but it's got enough features that it is worth considering. Its swiveling wheels make it easy for you to move it around flat surfaces. It also allows you to jump curbs without much effort. The Cloud's low handle is a problem, however; it's nearly at knee level and isn't adjustable. It's not easy to push it while your legs hang in that way. The lack of padding doesn't make it any easier.
During our testing, we discovered that the Cloud was simple to set up and open. It's a little more challenging to close, however; you must slide a slider, and then push a large white button to get it to collapse. This can be quite a hassle when you're trying to keep your children entertained while doing it.
The Cloud comes with a small but deep storage basket that will accommodate a medium-sized diaper bag. It's not the greatest width, though it's likely that you'll need to put something in to reach back to get it back. The Cloud comes with two tray for parents and children with two cup holders each however, both are too narrow to accommodate larger bottles or cups.

It also allows children to sit together. The Kooper X2 is unique in that it comes with a completely reclined seat, making it a great option for nap time. Its recline feature is easy to use, however it doesn't really go flat. For taller children, there may be a leg hanging in the reclined position. It also comes with a large canopy that we found to be more effective in blocking sun than some other options in our best double strollers review.
The stroller is light enough to maneuver through door frames, which was a big issue for us with some other strollers we tested. It folds up quickly and the handlebars are close to the ground for easy transport. The only issue is its limited storage space. When it's full of kids' stuff it can feel tight.

We also evaluated the strength and durability of each model, as well as whether it comes with a tray for parents that can accommodate both child trays.
