Comfortable Seats

Most umbrella strollers aren't fitted with a lot of bells and whistles because they only have one purpose: to get two children from A to B. That means they usually offer seats that are comfortable and spacious, but don't have reclining options or wheels that are all-terrain.

It has a large canopy with three panels that shields children from the sun. Both seats have a good amount of storage however, not as much as our top choices. It comes with 5-point safety belts on both seats, as well as peek-a-boo window in the canopy.

One drawback of the G-Link is that it lacks the belly bar and snack tray that we like to see in our top picks, but those aren't the most important features to have on an umbrella stroller, anyway.

In most double umbrella strollers, the seats are side-by-side. However there are models that have inline seating (one seat that is placed in front of the other). Inline models are more convenient to maneuver through doors than side-by-side models, however they usually have a difference between the seating options that can cause your children to argue over who has the better seat.

It also features a large storage basket that is easily accessible with reclining seats, as well as the window that peeks out. The seat also holds 35 lbs and meets Disney stroller size requirements.
