Need recommendations for lightweight double stroller

[aLLpInK]

Im looking into getting something smaller/lightweight for our first DW trip this spring. I have a graco quatro tour, which is nice but is SO heavy. Any suggestions on a lighter weight, but quality double stroller for DD 22lbs and DD 26 lbs??
TIA!

we got a jeep wrangler double umbrella stroller last year for then DS4 and DD2... we were looking for something cheap that folded up small and this fit the bill... it's like $80 or so on amazon or at walmart... it isn't the highest quality but it really isn't that bad at all... i think it holds 35 lbs per seat...

the year before we had 2 singles and the year before that we brought our mountain buggy double (we drove down that year - there was no way we were going to bring that heavy thing on the plane!)... we like the jeep double the best for maneuvering around disney...

have fun!

We are taking a regular lightweight stroller and renting a double from Magic Strollers so that we dont have to lug a heavy stroller with us, that might be an option.

I thought about going the double stroller route, but we ultimately decided on two singles and it worked out very well. Dh would lead pushing one, I would follow pushing the other and we were able to more easily negotiate crowds than if we had one stroller. I just tied a matching ribbon on both strollers and they managed to stay together even when CM's would re-arrange things. It was also easier getting on and off the busses with 2 small strollers than one big one. Just a thought....

We also bought the Jeep double umbrella for our 3 and 5 year old. My daughter is 40 lbs and son is 36 lbs and it worked fine. The only issue was my daughter was a tiny bit too tall for it (she's 42 inch) so when she'd lay back in it (each seat reclines on its own) her head wouldn't be on it too well but we would just rig something up for her sort of making a pillow. I thought the stroller worked great though - folding it up and getting it on the buses and monorails was easy and it wasn't overly bulky.
