Save Baby Jogger City Single Rain Canopy

0 comments

Ok I don't know what happened in the last review but I live at an FPO address (out of the country) and still got this sheild in like four days. As far as the sheild goes it fits perfectly on my city series single stoller. I even have others asking if I think that it would fit on their un-baby jogger strollers. Oh and by they way it looks a little different than the picture shows but is actually better. There is a black panel at the bottom near the front wheel that covers the foot plate and has the velcro to attatch around the bottom so it fits even better. Love this cover!

Discount BOB Weather Shield For Revolution Duallie Models in Yellow

0 comments

I purchased this product because I'm in love with my stroller and I wanted to be able to run in the rain. However, I didn't realize that it was not recommended to have the weather shield on in temperatures above 60 degrees. Also, I have the car seat adapter on the stroller and the weather shield is not compatible with it attached. Unfortunately it is not an easy task to put the adapter on or remove it. Once it gets cold I shouldn't need the car seat anymore. I'm sure this Bob product will be just as wonderful as I hope.

Cheap High Sierra Pro Wheeled Double Adjustable Snowboard/Ski Combo Bag (Black/Charcoal)

0 comments

I needed a bag to my kid's skis, boots and poles. I was attracted to this because it's adjustable - you can extend it twice by unzipping part of the bag which is folded up at one end - so you can carry kids' skis without 1/3 of the bag flopping around unused and also carry adult skis or snowboards if needed. Officially they say it'll carry 1 snowboard and 2 sets of skis, or 2 snowboards. I put in 3 kids' skis, 2 sets of poles, and 3 pairs of kids' boots, and they all fit fine without extending the bag.
Only quibble is that the zippers to extend the bag seems to stick and not open smoothly - that's the only reason I don't give it 5 stars - but once unzipped the bag is legitimately longer and there are no extra seams associated with the extensions which would weaken the bag. Overall it seems like it'll do the job nicely.
One improvement would be shoulder straps so you can wear it like a backpack, but the in-line wheels seem sturdy and I think it'll be fine to just pull it like any other bag.
In its smallest configuration, it's long enough to hold my daugher's 124cm skis with room to spare - would probably hold up to 140cm without extension; fully extended they say it'll hold up to 205cm skis. My 165 skis will require one of the 2 extensions being opened. So it really is very flexible.
The real test will come when we fly out to Denver later in the season - I'll report back on how it holds up.

Purchase Jane Powertwin in Azulon

0 comments

I've had this stroller for 3 years now. My kids are 18 mos apart. It has been fantastic. It steers well and my 4.5 year old still likes to ride in it and he's 75th percentile for height.

The con is the front sun shade isn't really high enough, but we don't use them anyway. I took the sunshade off my bugaboo frog too.

The only other issue we've had is now that my boys are both 35lbs it does seem to sometimes tip when I turn tight corners, but this wasn't a problem until more recently.

I find the storage basket plenty sufficient but I'm not a carry the kitchen sink with me. It has the most and easiest access of my 3 strollers.Get more detail about Jane Powertwin in Azulon.

Where To Buy Baby Jogger Double Adjustable Belly Bar - City Series 2007

0 comments

I ordered this bar to go on my Baby Jogger City Series Double Jogger. The clips snapped on easy enough, the only problem is that when I go shopping the clips make the stroller too wide to fit through a standard size door. I kept trying different angles, but the clips snapped off every time. O well, live and learn...Get more detail about Baby Jogger Double Adjustable Belly Bar - City Series 2007.

Shop For Kelty Speedster Deuce UV Bug Net Swivel

0 comments

We returned ours. The cover did not fit my new 2009 Kelty swivel deuce! Perhaps if I pulled REALLY tightly I could have jammed it in place, but I don't want to damage my sun shade. Setting it up involves a ton of bending over and straps, so it's nothing I'd ever do. The kids cannot see out well, nor can anyone see in. It does not provide full coverage because it misses totally the gap above their heads in back. You can pull the velcro stroller flaps over this gap, but smart mosquitos could still get in. Also, it would get in the way of feet unless the baby is well under 2 years old. The product seems totally useless and I'd give it zero stars. I can put any old bug cover on it if I really want to (though that won't fit perfectly); it's better than the Kelty one.
If you have a newborn or very young baby, I would give this product a shot because protecting such a young one from sun and bugs is VERY important (and the great sun canopy won't provide 100% coverage for low sun). I'm sure with a little practice you'd get it to fit (after all, the company makes it for this stroller). I just felt that for my toddlers, it was too much hassle. The kids were squirming and kicking at it so I gave up. A new baby can't kick at it, though!Get more detail about Kelty Speedster Deuce UV Bug Net Swivel.

Save Eddie Bauer All-Terrain Tandem Stroller

0 comments

My children are two years apart, so I thought a double stroller with so many options would be great. However, this double stroller completely lacked. Its the heaviest, bulkiest stroller I've ever seen. And to make matters worse, the steering was horrible. You must use both hands to steer this, so you can forget talking on the cell. I live in a neighborhood with a lot of gently winding roads. I never thought anything of it with my other stollers, but after taking this one for a stroll I felt like I just spent two hours at the gym working my back and arms. I used it for maybe a month and finally had enough and got a double jogging stroller. I gave this one to a friend who was having her second child. She, too, used this stroller once and had enough. What a total waste of my money.Get more detail about Eddie Bauer All-Terrain Tandem Stroller.

Buying Safety 1st Two Ways Tandem Stroller

0 comments

This stroller is terrible! You cannot turn this stroller without either skidding the back wheels along the floor in the opposite direction you want to turn or if you are lucky, have the person with you lift up the fron end and have them turn the stroller for you. I have a newborn and a 26 month old. You cannot turn this stroller at all. The tandem aspect of the stroller is nice but if you can't move the stroller, what's the point? I am sure you can find a better stroller than this one!Get more detail about Safety 1st Two Ways Tandem Stroller.

Combi Twin Savvy LX Side by Side Double Stroller in Black/Wasabi Review

0 comments

I read many reviews of this stroller online as well as those of other side by sides. I also had a friend go to a stroller store and personally "test drive" several strollers. In her opinion, this one was the best for what I needed. It is extremely lightweight (21 pounds) and folds extremely easy. I have one of the biggest SUV's available and it is no problem lifting it in and out of the vehicle. The swivel front wheels are amazing. It turns unbelievable! The reclining seats are wonderful for younger babies and sleeping babies. I started using this with my twins when they were about 3 1/2 months old. For me, it made the difference in being able to get out of the house with them. We already had a double snap n go stroller that their infant seats fit in, but they did not want to be in those seats anymore than they had to. So I literally could not get out of the house to take them anywhere by myself. Once we purchased this stroller, I was able to get out with them and go places. They really seem to enjoy this stroller.
I will agree with other reviewers on some of the negative aspects of the stroller. The main two for me being: cupholders are very shallow and the bar that goes thru the underneath baskets. That is why I gave it 4 out of 5 stars. However, those two inconveniences in no way hinder my recommending this stroller as a great purchase!!

I bought the double sun/insect mesh even though I only have one child in anticipation of the future. It works fine even with only one seat. It goes on pretty easily and my 2 month old can see out of it just fine.

My mesh came with a missing snap in the back, but there seems to be no issues, we generally only snap the top snaps to keep it in place. And I do wish it had a flap to get to the baby easier. Overall it is a great product and I don't have to worry about my baby getting sunburned or bit by bugs while I am running.Get more detail about Phil and Ted's Sport Double Sun/Insect Mesh.

424Z Blue Single Canopy Double Stroller Immediately

0 comments

I actually bought this stroller on another website and it was the biggest waste of money I have ever spent! It's made for two kids but can only fit one! You cannot put anything in the basket below. There isn't even an opening to put anything in. The front seat doesn't go far enough forward for the second child to fit in. And the back seat doesn't recline all the way down. Which makes for a very cranky baby when they can't lay down when they are tired! And might I mention that it also falls over rather easy? It tipped over yesterday. With both of my sons in it. If either of them had been hurt, I would have been more than happy to sue the company! It didn't even come with instructions to put it together! If you care about your children spend a little extra on a real stroller. Your better off with an umbrella stroller from the dollar store than this piece of junk!

I bought this bag about a year ago and am still very happy with it. I bought when I was expecting my fourth (all under four) and needed a bag that fit the needs of an infant and three small children. This bag is huge, lots of space, lots of pockets and constructed in strong sturdy fabric that's washable. The added benefit is the ability to clip the bag to my double stroller or a grocery cart leaving me much need space. I highly recommend the Skip Hop Canvas diaper bag line. Very practical for such an expensive product.Get more detail about Skip Hop Duo Double Canvas -Uptown Stripe.

Bumbleride Indie Twin Stroller - Spice Order Now

0 comments

When we had twins we never knew what a "gypsy carriage" our car (with twins a mini-van it's the only option) would be; and this stroller is the ultimate addition to our carriage.
This is our second double stroller and we went for it after the double snap and go was getting to small for the girls, at 4 monts to go around for more than 20 minutes without hearing complaints from them.
The first thing you'll think is that it's outrageously expensive; and depending on your budget, it might be; however if you can afford it GO FOR IT.
The girls fit good and have space to spare, the multi level adjustable back let them sleep flat one at the time or both if they decide to and the parents can roam over any surface without having to "lift" and pull the stroller trough it, the only suface we have not tried it is on sand for obvious reasons and we are very satisfied with it.
The cargo space underneath the sroller is great and the 'backpack' behind the seats are great additions for the 'mobile madness' we go with.
Now you'll think, why 4 and not 5 stars?
because there is not a 4 1/2 stars option. The cons are those associated with double strollers, even being light for it's size it's still a little heavy and bulky when folded to put in our 'carriage'.Get more detail about Bumbleride Indie Twin Stroller - Spice.

Vibe Double Storm Cover Decide Now

0 comments

When #2 was born, I moved from a Bug Cameleon to the P&T Vibe and it works great for running around the neighborhood with 2 kids. The longer wheel base (vs. the bug) makes it feel very stable and if I could do it all over again, I'd have skipped the Bug and gone straight to P&T (less the doubles kit) for baby #1. That said, it is wider and the length plus width make it difficult to take in stores, but frankly I rarely would go in a store with 2 kids in a stroller anyway. I considered the older version of the P&T which is much cheaper than the Vibe, but chose the Vibe for the improved braking mechanism. When I tested the brake on the old one in a store, it shoot the whole stroller putting it off and on which didn't seem like a good idea should the baby be sleeping down there. Having it in the middle of the handle is okay, but not ideal and I do accidentally lock it while pushing on occasion.Get more detail about Vibe Double Storm Cover.

This is a great product if you have twins. If you have Peg Perego infant car seats, you can just use those and snap them in, or as they get older use the included seats in any configuration (each child can face any direction.)

Low Price mountain buggy urban jungle double stroller black

0 comments

This is a fantastic double stroller, probably the best one out there in terms of maneuverability. It's really easy to push (I can do one handed), turns great, fits through all standard doorways and has lots of accessories so you can customize it to your unique kid combo (twins, toddler/newborn, etc). But, it is not a stroller that you want to be taking in and out of the car all the time. It does fold down but is still quite big, and it's really heavy if you have to lift it by yourself. It's not just the number of pounds, it's that it's a really awkward, big shape to be lifting. As a walking/jogging stroller though, you really can't beat this one.

Discount Protect-a-Bub Universal Rain Cover - Twin - Black

0 comments

I bought this for my 2009 Kelty double (deuce swivel) jogging stroller (for cold weather). This weather cover is wonderful in that there is minimal vinyl (baby can still see out through the window). The fabric part is nice material. It goes on the stroller so easily, that if we were out and got caught in the rain, I could put it on quickly. It comes with a handy storage bag, too. I can put it in the stroller pocket. Like any weather cover, once your kids' feet get to be long (my 20-month-old already has her feet to where they can reach the cover by the footrest), their feet might bump into the cover. My 3-year-old knows enough not to kick at it. No problem for little babies, though.

The fit is very good, which amazed me. I feel I can take my kids out in below 32 degree weather now. I'm not saying that 0 degrees (as it can get in Chicago) would be ideal!


The Protect-A-Bub company did not respond to my emails, so I had no idea if this would fit or not. There was no picture of a side by side double jogger on the website. Turns out I am very happy with this purchase. The Kelty company offered their own weather cover for my stroller, for $80 (and it's the same design as their bug cover, which was too hard to actually attach). I am glad I only paid under $30 for the Protect-a-Bub. Love it!Get more detail about Protect-a-Bub Universal Rain Cover - Twin - Black.

We have a 16 month old daughter and 4 month old son. I'm really glad that we made this purchase. Definitely a high quality stroller. Kids have the comfort and it's a smooth stroll wherever we go.

We take power walks along the lake. Kids enjoy and we get our exercise too.

Highly recommended.

Reason for shorting the review by one star: the weight and we had to move our son in and out of the car seat to the stroller during cold days. The double can't accomodate the car seat. Was'nt much fun. Great stroller anyway without a doubt.Get more detail about Baby Jogger City Elite Double Stroller - Tan/Black.

Cheap BOB Sun Shield For Duallie Sport Utility Strollers

0 comments

I LOVE the sun shield! We live in southern Louisiana and it is hot, sunny and buggy most of the year. I bought this for my BOB SUV stroller to protect my infant twins from the elements. It keeps the bugs off, the sun off, and if you look from the inside, the view is not impaired at all. HOWEVER, I was about to make a big mistake. If you notice, the stroller in the picture is not the BOB SUV (or not the model that I have). I could not get the shade to fit properly...but I liked it so much I was just going to "make do" or return it for the right one...I figured maybe they sent me the revolution shade. After playing with it for the 100th time, I realized (duh) that I had it on upside down. A novice mistake, for sure, but easy to make when you see this thing in person, as it has a strip of mesh on the top and bottom of the main window. I flipped it around (the wire goes at the bottom, not the top...and the BOB logo faces the back by the handlebar, not the front by the wheel) and it fits like a charm. Sure wish I figured it out today BEFORE my walk rather than after....

It's a great piece of equipment and well worth the price.Get more detail about BOB Sun Shield For Duallie Sport Utility Strollers.

I never write reviews, but I have to on this one. This bag is awesome. I have 10 month old twins and I needed a more functional bag for travelling - this has exceeded my expectations. It has great pockets on the inside and outside with still plenty of room in the main compartment. There are adjustable mesh pockets on either side - I'm able to fit two bottles, two narrow sippy cups, or two water bottles in each one. I'm able to fit a change of clothes, toys, diapers, burp cloths, formula, pacifiers, sippy cups, etc. for both babies with still room to spare. It fits on my double stroller and is so easy to get things in and out of. It has a great zipper pocket on the top front to hold wallet, keys, etc - this has been fantastic - I can grab my wallet so easily, without having to dig around in a bag. I searched for a great diaper bag for twins and I highly recommend this one. I don't know how I managed without it!Get more detail about Skip Hop Duo Double - Canvas-Navy.

Order 2008 Mountain Buggy Urban Double Stroller - Black Dot

0 comments

Amazing stroller. We purchased for use with our twins so we could take them to our families cabin in the North Cascade mountains but my husband loves it so much it has become our main stroller. The wheels pivot 100% so shopping is a breeze, even in crowded stores and I can easily push and turn it with just one hand. The all terrain wheels make handling curbs a breeze. The park is no problem, grass, gravel, dirt roads, no problem! You can go anywhere with this stroller. My friend has a double BOB stroller and it's so big and the front wheel protrudes so much (as do most "jogging" strollers) the MB is so compact and the four wheels are awesome (rather than the typical 3 wheels on a jogging stroller). I keep it in the car now so I can easily go anywhere with the babies. I can go to the garden nursery now or the park, beach or of course, the mountains. I won't lie, this stroller is much bigger and heavier than my little Peg Perego but my husband has made it our main stroller, he totally loves it.

I purchased this and was only able to use it for a short two weeks, until it fell off of my diaper bag and is lost already!! Other people's reviews stated that it fell off too easily, and I should have listened. The strap that attaches it to the diaper bag closes with a snap, which is not AT ALL strong enough. It falls off just from brushing against it. Otherwise, it would have been a great accessory. Get more detail about Skip Hop Pacifier Pocket - Black.

BOB Revolution Duallie - Orange Review

0 comments

It is the single best buy I have made since buying the single BOB revolution. It moves around easily and despite it's size I was pleased to find that it is comfortable to run with. It folds up easily like the single jogger. It is worth the investment. I have a 6 month old and a 3 year old and they are both comfortable in their chairs. The only thing I wish is that there was a window in between so they can see eachother. There are shocks that make the ride smooth for them no matter what terrain we are on. The wheel locks out or rotates freely which is nice. Get more detail about BOB Revolution Duallie - Orange.

Phil and Teds Hammerhead Doubles Kit In Black/Charcoal Top Quality

0 comments

I bought this exact stroller a year ago for my then infant and toddler girls. Everyone in my family thought I was stupid for spending so much on a stroller but it turned out to be the best investment I ever made. The ride is the smoothest and the tires make it sooo light to push. Plus with this pink design I was so exclusive since everyone has lime green, red, or black. I was fierce pushing my stroller around. Then once my toddler outgrew it, I was able to take the lower seat off and continue using it for the baby who is now a toddler and it still looks great. This stroller is wonderful, a great invesment indeed.Get more detail about Phil and Teds Hammerhead Doubles Kit In Black/Charcoal.

Safety 1st Two Way Tandem Stroller, Sahara This instant

0 comments

My wife and I have one and a half year old twin boys who like to make jokes and play with each other. Our first stroller was a Graco tandem, it was a good stroller, but the boy in front would constantly try to turn around to see his brother. Also, the one in back would grab the front one's hair a lot. This led my wife and me to search for a stroller with an interchangeable seat.
Pros:
* The front seat is very easy to switch from front to rear facing a lot easier than I though it would be. The twins can face each other now. They steal each others food and make jokes only they understand (all the laughing they do at each other).
* It is definitely well built. The boys wiggle and shake around a lot, and it doesn't veer of course are move the stroller much in response.
* It is a little harder to steer than the Graco was, but not bad enough to complain.
* The seats are really padded so they seem pretty comfortable for the boys.
* The way it is spaced when the front seat is facing forward the rear twin can not easily grab his brother's hair which saves us a lot of head aches.

Cons:
* There is only one cup holder for the parents and one for the front seat. My wife and I were upset about that. The description had said that there were three cup holders. That is flat out wrong. And, the cup holder for the parents is so shallow that most cups tip when ever you hit bumps or go up curbs.
* The lap belts are very difficult to adjust.
* The under storage space is smaller than the Graco was, but is still sufficient enough for several items.
* The rear wheels stick out further than the front. This causes us to bump into things a lot with the rear wheels. Especially narrow doorways.

I still give it four stars, because it is well made and does what we bought it for well. Also, if we didn't have the Graco first we wouldn't know any better pertaining to some of the cons.

UPPAbaby PiggyBack Ride Along Board Immediately

0 comments

This is the best! The piggyback has been a huge hit at our house with my almost 5 year old. We use it all the time. It was easy to install, although I was concerned about the brake lines as another reviewer stated that the piggy back interfered with her brake. The instruction don't really point out what to do. So I put the clips over the brake lines and we haven't had any brake issues.

One thing to remember is that, yes, the piggyback does make the stroller more cumbersome. In our case a 44" tall and 42 pound child is now riding on a board attached to the stroller, so yes a bit more pushing is involved. I also have to shorten my stride when the board is in use. That said I can still push the stroller, with both kids in it, one-handed.

The board is definitely worth it. Get more detail about UPPAbaby PiggyBack Ride Along Board.

We had a great experience with our Bugaboo for our first child but when number two came, the beloved Bugaboo was obsolete. But we still wanted the feel of the Bugaboo. I had heard of the Phil and Teds Vibe and was excited but once I got it, it was such a pain in the butt to use. I got rid of it and got my 8th and final stroller, the Bumbleride Indie Twin. There are so many wonderful videos and reviews of this stroller online and I looked at them all. This stroller is around $659 and it was worth every penny. It's cheaper than the Bugaboo and the Phil and Teds Vibe. I was soooo happy when it arrived and was able to put it together by myself in less than half an hour. I purchased Seagrass which was absolutely beautiful. The stroller glides wonderfully and it handles so lightly you would never know it was a double. It does fit through my front door way and I have no problems with it at the mall or stores. Funny thing though people forget to mention is when they go through the parking lot, you can't squeeze through cars anymore since this is a double. Not a problem though, a little extra walking never hurt anyone. It's easy to fold and at 34 lbs it's not too bad. I thought it would be heavy but when you're using it, you're not really feeling the weight. The storage basket is gigantic! I also bought the snack trays and they are handy. The infant adapter is easy to use but if you do have the larger Graco Safeseat like I do, it does tend to be a little wider. The brake is easy to use. The only con if there is one, is that the 2009 locks, are really not that great. They are hard to get on and pretty much just little plastic pieces that don't look like the quality matches the rest of the stroller. That didn't stop me from giving this stroller all 5 stars! It's not hard to lift into the car without locking. I thought it was going to be a little snug in my 2009 Highlander but it fit wonderfully with lots of room leftover. Fantastic stroller and would recommend over and over again. I will not be needing another stroller for a long, long time.Get more detail about Bumbleride Indie Twin Stroller - Seagrass.

Baby Jogger City Series Double 12" Black Buy Now

0 comments

This stroller is unbelievable! We have big twin boys who are 8 months now and even with all of our stuff packed into the big baskets on the bottom and our loaded diaper bag attached across the handlebar, we can push the stroller anywhere effortlessly with a single hand! The stroller folds up by pulling to straps in the seat section, brilliant design! I am fairly tall so the adjustable handle is great. The front platform makes a nice temporary riding spot for my 3.5 yr old daughter on long walks. The shades are great as well. The new design allows you to cover the munchkins faces and bodies for any angle of the sun.

This is clearly a very well thought out stroller in every way. For anyone who needs a good all terrain stroller and is looking at something in the price range of a Mountain Buggy, the baby jogger city double is just as good if not better for ~$100 less.Get more detail about Baby Jogger City Series Double 12" Black.

Bumbleride Indie Twin Stroller - Ruby Order Now

0 comments

After retiring from the double snap-n-go for my twins, I've decided to get the 2008 Bumbleride Indie Twin after tons of research. This is the closest you can get in comparison to the Bugaboo stroller, only difference is that this comes in double stroller and Bugaboo does not. It is easy to maneuver, can almost fully recline, it's got a huge storage compartment on the bottom of the stroller and pocket compartments on the back of each seat. Canopy works great, you can unzip the canopy and shift it forward, so that it can block the sun from the babies' eyes.

At first, I was having a hard time trying to unfold and fold the stroller, once you get a hang of it, will become easier. I have an suv, the most challenging part is to lift this 34 lbs. heavy stroller on and off my car. If you are seriously considering this stroller, you have to be able be "strong" enough to do the lifting. Just imagine, if you have to run errands to multiple places, be prepared to do some heavy lifting. One day I was folding my stroller to lift it up to my car, I guess I looked like I was having a hard time lifting it...and a guy in his early 40s parked next to me and was nice enough to ask if I needed help to lift it up to my car. Sure enough, after helping me out, he said he couldn't imagine that I have to do this all this time... But this is the type of stroller that gives you all the bells and whistles, you can't really compare the weight to umbrella strollers if you want all the features its got. Other than that I think this is a great stroller to have. I have gotten tons of compliments about it almost every time we're out.

Since this stroller doesn't come with cup holders, I would highly recommend getting the "Sunshine Kids Accessory Buddy" from Amazon for only $9.99. It works so much better than any of those single cup holders out there. I bought a single cup holder and it broke soon after, it was such a waste of money. But with this, it's affordable and multi-functional. It can hold 2 drinks and whatever you want to put in the middle. I plan on getting another one.

EZ Strider Double Stroller Decide Now

0 comments

Pros: 1)it rolls
Cons:
1)The most upright seat position is still too reclined. My kids wind up pulling themselves forward to see.
2)The knee-to-foot distance is too short for my short 2 yr olds. The foot rest is too narrow & too shallow - their shoes unintentionally drag the tire.
3)The foot brakes can appear to be locked even when they aren't.
4)Even when they're buckled-in, my kids can tough the back tires. If they wiggle loose from shoulder harness (easy to do), they can touch the front tire with their hands.
5)I kick the axle during long strides. Also,the handle is too short (I'm only 5'6")
6)It provides quite a bumpy ride
7)The plastic rims make it difficult (impossible for us) to find & install replacement tires
8)I gave it away!Get more detail about EZ Strider Double Stroller.

Lowest Price Baby Jogger Performance Double Rain Canopy

0 comments

I ordered the rain canopy for my new double summit 360 baby jogger stroller. After several minutes of trying to fit the plastic cover over the stroller, I re-checked the rain canopy instruction sheet to find that it only fits 2004/2005 stroller models. A huge waste of time, and now I have to wait for the CORRECT canopy to fit current models.Get more detail about Baby Jogger Performance Double Rain Canopy.

Low Price Zooper Tango Red Side by Side Double Stroller - Everyday Line

0 comments

I can't say enough good things about this stroller. I've used it for my twin daughters for nearly three years and it's still in perfect condition. So perfect, in fact, I'm handing it down to another set of newborn twins! Pluses are many: netting around seat works wonders for keeping cups, toys, binkies, etc safely inside (when babies get bigger, simply unzip and remove and let their little legs dangle down); very easy to maneuver with one hand b/c of the single bar; very easy to collapse and set up; I also found it very easy to lift and store; the frame is narrow enough for just about any standard doorway and the bench seat is still roomy enough for both of my girls to have toys, blankets, and snacks while riding; lastly, as your kids grow, parts can be removed to accommodate bigger sizes and improved agility - i.e. the front bar pops off and your 2 yr old can climb in and out on their own.
I've also used it with kids of different ages on family outings with great success. And it's seen more than its share of airports (doesn't fit thru x-ray machine, you have to hand it over for a manual scan), restaurants, zoos, parks, uneven terrain, you name it - I pushed it there. They should call this stroller the Zooper Trooper rather than the Tango!
Strollers are a huge investment and there are so many to choose from these days. I can honestly say that this was money well spent. For your hard earned money, this is as good as it gets. Hope this helps!Get more detail about Zooper Tango Red Side by Side Double Stroller - Everyday Line.

Save Easywalker Douwalker Sky Base Stroller - Army

0 comments

The stroller was fairly simple to assemble. We took it out for our first outing. Pros: it is so easy to manuever, turns on a dime and gets easily through doors. Our newborn infant looked very comfortable in the carrycot. The two year old loved the ride! We took an outside ride first on a mulch path and there were no problems getting stuck. The ride appeared very smooth for the children. Then we went to the mall. Easy access through the doors. Manuevers through stores easily. We got quite the looks from others! Lots of storage, too. Cons: Heavy! It collapses easily to get into the car, but pretty heavy to load. The carrycot is tricky to get on the frame, but maybe because it's new for us. The storage on the bottom of the frame is difficult to access. I wish the seat for the toddler sat more upright. The highest position is still reclined and I saw her sitting up most of the time. Definely a great stroller for major outings, zoo, parks, etc. Get more detail about Easywalker Douwalker Sky Base Stroller - Army.

Discount Valco Baby Twin Double Latitude Compact Baby Stroller

0 comments

This stroller WOULD have been perfect had it not been for the short seat backs and short height of the canopy. (one star deducted for each) My son who is 27 months old and in the 50th percentile for height had NO room to grow - his head was 1/2 an inch from the canopy. You might notice that this stroller has one of the shortest seat back heights around (17.5 inches). It never occurred to me to consider this since we've tried SO many strollers and never even come close to the canopy. My son's elbows were also basically pinned to his sides with NO room to move (10.5 inch wide seats). This stroller is light (not the lightest, but defeinetely do-able), easy to fold, fantastic quality (Valco is known for ), looks great, nice and narrow, short from front to back, great stride length from what I could tell in the short time I had it, great storage, great canopies just like the twin tri mode, nice smooth ride on the wheels. So many nice things about the stroller. It was obvious the second I put my son in it though that there's no way I could keep it. This might work for newborn twins, but even then the life of this stroller will be shortened by the seat/canopy height. From what I've seen kids use strollers until they're 3 or 4 even sometimes. I would seriously consider other strollers before this one. You might end up outgrowing it alot sooner than expected, which means having to buy another double stroller later. Good luck!

Cheapest Joovy Big Caboose Stand-On Tandem Triple Stroller Black

0 comments

I have 2 kiddos and a 3rd due any day. My older 2 are 31 mo old son and 14 mo old daughter. The stroller accommodates the kids good. The few complaints I have are the seats are short (OK for my 1 yr old but she is petite but my 2 yr olds head comes way above the seat so if we were gone all day he cant even sit in the back and go to sleep. Also it is hard to push as I think the handles are awkward. I also do not car for the fact the only accessory is the parent tray, no rain cover or bug netting cover avail separate. When u turn a corner the wheel sometimes com up so make sure u have a hold of it, I have tried my little on in the back and front and still have this issue. On the upside it does accommodate all 3 kids and seems to be sturdy (minus the back foot rest falls off a lot but just snaps back in). The shade covers are large and even cover the kiddo on the jump seat if they are sitting. It is easy to fold and unfold and cleans off easily. I dont quite no if its worth the money but I have yet to find another stroller that accommodates the needs of 3 kiddos 1 being a toddler :) (I have tried the tri mode that accommodates 3 but it is just to wide and heavy also).
