Cheap Safety 1st Two Way Tandem Stroller Laguna

0 comments

Good: This is very sturdy, easy to push and easy to fold. Fits 2 car seats.
Bad: Heavy and very, very hard to steer.

We bought this for our newborn and 3 year old. I believe this stroller was designed for twins or siblings under the age of 3. Putting a 40-50 lb child in the front and baby in the front renders the stroller unsteerable. Having the ability to have the seats facing is nice because our 3 year-old could lay down and nap and be fully extended. Get more detail about Safety 1st Two Way Tandem Stroller Laguna.

Buying Kolcraft Contours Options Tandem Stroller, Ruby

0 comments

This is the best, most versatile stroller for twins! We live in a high-rise and this is the only one that fits in the various elevators in our building. It is like a "Transformer" that you can make the seats face forward, backward (facing me), mix and match. It looks like a stroller designed for fathers like me, and my wife loves the color combination and looks expensive. We do have to buy an extra car seat adapter since it only came with one.Get more detail about Kolcraft Contours Options Tandem Stroller, Ruby.

Purchase Baby Trend Galaxy Sit N' Stand Stroller

0 comments

I loved the idea that my new baby and my 2 1/2 year old would both be happy in this. My 2 1/2 yr old loves standing/sitting in the back and will not get in a regular stroller seat so I thought this would be great. Unfortunately its been terrible. Its too long and this causes it to be really hard to turn. And the frame is a little delicate. With ours the right side got pushed forward a little and the whole thing pulled to the right so hard that it was a HUGE chore to push it. We called them and they told us to switch the front wheels which did not work. I finally laid it on its side and pushed the right side forward while bracing the other front wheel and that helped a little but its still really hard to push. The wheels are also small and make it difficult to get over cracks etc. in the sidewalk. And since we bought it while I was pregnant and its past 6 months the company was no help at all and suggested I just buy a new one! Riiiiight!Get more detail about Baby Trend Galaxy Sit N' Stand Stroller.

Where To Buy InStep Ultra Runner 2 Double Jogging Stroller (Red/Gold/Gray)

0 comments

I spent a great deal of time looking a various joggers and finally settled on this one. The reviews I read prior to purchase indicated the fabric covering the seat maybe a problem, but I have not found this to be a big issue. It's hot here in Texas and I think the fabric helps to keep the babies cool so I was happy with that. I really like the fat tires; they provide added cushioning along with the shocks making for a very smooth ride. It's easy to steer, moves with little effort. I am really happy with the jogger and pleased with the price. I had a BOB prior to this purchase and the Instep jogger actually works better for me.

This stroller is great - all terrain, folds nicely and the wheels come off easy. However, the material it is made from is very cheap. The seat straps are falling apart after only 2 months. It also does not have any padding as is shown in the pictures.Get more detail about Schwinn Free Wheeler 2 Double Swivel Wheel Jogging Stroller (Blue/Gray).

Joovy Caboose Ultralight Stand On Tandem Stroller, Black Best Quality

0 comments

i really love this stroller. it is at a very reasonable cost and so good. easy to use and set up/break down. amazingly light and compact for a double and to push/maneuver but feels very solid and secure and wellmade. fits in my honda civic trunk fine including canopy altho not much room for other large items (like going to wholesale club) although i can still go to grocery store and fit everything. great for age difference between my 2 kids (infant and toddler, used from 6mo/3.5 yrs to 18mo/4.5 yr so far). straps easy to use and very secure. canopy is the best coverage and very flexible to adjust coverage where needed. looks so good, it should cost 2x what it does; i get many queries about it when i go out with it. my kids are small/thin and i could see where larger kids might feel squashed but my older one loves it (32lb, 40in), she loves to take a ride on her little seat and to hop on and off when she feels like it. no naps really possible in the stroller for either child i think. but still worth every penny and moreGet more detail about Joovy Caboose Ultralight Stand On Tandem Stroller, Black.

Red Sports Doubles Kit Get it now!

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 Red Sports Doubles Kit.

Joovy Caboose Stand On Tandem Stroller, Black Decide Now

0 comments

We love the Joovy Caboose. Our 2 year old can stand while the 2 month old infant is in her car seat up front with the included car seat adaptor. Toddler cannot sit on the bench when the car seat (Graco Snugrider) is attached because it requires the front seat to be reclined. Looking forward to when the baby can sit in the front seat without a car seat (6 months of age and able to sit without support, according to the instruction book), so that the toddler can sit on the bench. He loves to sit and ride around the house on the bench seat, very exciting because it minimally restricts his mobility and makes him feel like a "big boy" - it's easy for a toddler to get on and off the stroller.

Also, the design is nice and simple, I like the color options and minimalist style, and it is not too much larger than a regular size single stroller when folded. The price is great for what you get.

InStep Suburban Safari Double Jogging Stroller (red/grey) Right now

0 comments

If you are a jogger and/or really want a swivel front wheel, do not buy this stroller. It is terrible. The customer service people have all been very nice and replaced the stroller once because of a defective front wheel (it stopped working after 1 outing) but my replacement has the same problem, the front wheel does not swivel. Additionally, this stroller is prone to tipping if you go over uneven ground. I don't know if other strollers in this price category are any better but I would recommend spending a bit more and getting a quality product that will work beyond the end of your driveway. I found a used double mountain buggy that is fantastic.Get more detail about InStep Suburban Safari Double Jogging Stroller (red/grey).

Lowest Price BOB Revolution Duallie Stroller in Navy

0 comments

If you live in Kansas, where there are no hills, buy the Bob Revolution. It's excellent for flatlanders.

If you live in an area with any terrain, the Bob is nothing but an exercise in frustration, as it has no brakes! Don't let the product feature "dual real brakes" fool you - that's just the parking/safety latch, not an actual brake.Get more detail about BOB Revolution Duallie Stroller in Navy.

Low Price Kolcraft 2009 Contours Options Tandem Stroller - Ruby

0 comments

This is a great stroller out of the selections that I have seen for me and my family. I am a single mother to 3 kids, an 8 year old, a very active 2 year old and a newborn and this stroller is great for us. It is big but I like how it is a Tandem stroller that way my two year old can sit in the front and not touch the baby. This stroller has alot of great feautres however it is hard to close and is very big when closed and heavy. I had a c-section and there is no way I would be able to lift this stroller and even attempt to put it in my trunk. I have a 07 Nissan Altima and it takes up all the space in my trunk and leaves me with no room and is very heavy to lift into the trunk. However I have heard of the same complaints with all of the double strollers so I guess that is what you get with them.Get more detail about Kolcraft 2009 Contours Options Tandem Stroller - Ruby.

Save Graco Twin IPO Stroller in Navarro

0 comments

We actually bought 2 of these to use at Disney World for our kids, ages 4, 3, 18 months, and 3 months. We wanted something that would accomodate all sizes of kids and steer well with any combination of kids, give everyone an actual seat to sit in (not like a sit and stand), and fold up small to fit on busses. We found the perfect stroller! It folded easily and small, it held all of the kids from the 3 month old to the 44" and 45lb older kids comfortably and steered relatively well. Some things that we especially liked: there was a carry handle on the side so when it was folded up you could pick it up like a suitcase which was especially handy for the busses, it was very easy to fold and unfold, the seats reclined to near flat (the 3 month old spent lots of time in it and never had a problem) and could be reclined or sat up easily with just one hand, and the baskets were adaquately sized, but not huge. It overall was a great little double stroller. It was much sturdier than I was expecting from an umbrella type stroller.
That being said, there were a few negatives. The sunshades are essentailly useless, and the clips to hold them open didn't work very well. They were pretty flimsy and the older kids kept knocking them off of the stroller and then we would have to reattached them. They also kind of got in the way when folding the stroller up, but not a big deal. The other bad thing that we came across was that the wheels in the front have a lever thing that makes the wheels swivel (easy to steer) or lock (tough to steer, but good for offroad). Sometimes the kids with their long legs, or Mommy and Daddy steering too close to an obstacle, would knock those levers into the lock positon and then the stroller would get difficult to steer, so we would have to stop and put the lever thing back. The stroller really isn't too bad to steer when all 3 front wheels are swiveling, but if one of them gets locked it becomes much more difficult. And if you have much weight in the stroller you HAVE to use 2 hands to steer. Since it is an umbrella stroller and has 2 handles instead of a continuos bar there will be no cell phone chats while you steer the stroller, at least not very long ones.
Overall, the strollers worked awesome for us at Disney World and I am excited about having one to use for the 2 younger kids as they get older. If you are looking for a small, easy to use double stroller for cruising the mall, going to the zoo, etc I would definitely recommend this one.Get more detail about Graco Twin IPO Stroller in Navarro.

Discount Baby Trend Double Snap N Go Stroller Frame, Black

0 comments

We bought this to use with the peg perego car seats. While it does the job, it is very cumbersome to steer. Also, if you're on the smaller side, it's neearly impossible to get moving. I actually grunt while pushing off. Still, it's so inexpensive compared to the peg perego tandem. I'd have to say that I'd probably buy it again. Here are a few other twin things that I could not live without:

The Joovy Room2 playpen
2 Nap Nannys in camel color(fit perfectly inside of bassinets I used for a week)
2 Boppy fullsize swings. I have the travel version, but the babies just don't like it. ???
2 Angelcare monitors. These detect every breath the babies take.
Medela Pump in Style Advanced Breastpump. Three babies later, it's still going strong.
Medela microwave steam clean bags
Williams Sonoma automatic soap dispenser-- I must wash my hands a zillion times a day.
Any baby bouncer.
zippered sleepers---please!
mary jane and johnny socks are better than shoes
loved baby brand knit caps in every color
bulb syringe
a digital thermometer
baby nail clippers
tons of very lightweight bath towels to use with one hand

Things I really hated, or just didn't work well:

Baby wipes warmers. They never quite warm them and the wipes dry out quickly.
All baby bathtubs. We tried two, but find the sink to be so much cleaner and quicker. There is really no good place to store these besides the empty bathtub.
Snap-shut sleepers (I hate SNAPS!)
Newborn shoes. Both of our babies would kick these off before we were even out the door. The socks that look like little shoes are adorable. Plus, you'll get five pairs for the price of one.

Cheapest Baby Trend Expedition Double Jogging Stroller, Skylar

0 comments

I am not happy with this stroller! We purchased it for our Disney trip and half way through the week the front wheel started to wobble constantly making the stroller impossible to push. If you lock the front wheel it does stop wobbling, but then it is difficult to turn. If you purchase this stroller, make sure you have a wrench and screwdriver with you at all times because when the front wheel comes loose and starts to wobble (and it will), and you need to remove the foot rest to tighten it. When the kids are in the seats, it is very hard to add or remove anything from the lower bins; the bins look a lot larger than they actually are, and the rear of the bins do not pull down for easy access. When the stroller is folded, it is cumbersome to open. If I had to do it all over again, I would not purchase this particular stroller!Get more detail about Baby Trend Expedition Double Jogging Stroller, Skylar.

Purchase InStep Safari Swivel Double Jogging Stroller (Blue/Chocolate)

0 comments

I am an australian living here in the US for 3 months and needed a double stroller but did not want to pay huge dollars for it. I was excited when I saw this on Amazon. I am glad that I only need it for 3 months, it is pretty poor quality. I am only hopeful that it stays in one piece up until I leave.
Firstly, I paid an extra $30 delivery to get it quickly and then it arrived missing the part that keeps the the left had seat up. I rang InStep and they said they would send one over quickly. 7 days later I rang again. I questioned wether I should recieve reimbursement for the delivery (basically I did not receive all of the pram) the service woman was not impressed with this query and said that they would not charge me delivery for the part that they did not send me in the first place - how nice of them. I had to tie the cords at the back of the seat so it was upright while waiting for the part. 10 days later it arrived. No-one bothered to mention to me on the phone that there are little toggles on the end of the cords that don't come off so I CANT PUT IT ON!!
Secondly, the front wheel jams when you sometimes turn corners. The only way to fix this is to push the pram back and forth until it rights itself. This is very annoying when you are on a busy street. Doing this however bent the axle and the front wheel fell off. My poor father had taken my son for a long walk and had to push the pram back on its back wheels because there was no front wheel. I am now super cautious to use this pram in case the wheel falls off.
The quality of the material is pretty poor, if you spill something on it, it just get sucked up into the material - it also looks alot better on the internet than in person.
People have commented on the sunshade, this has not bothered me. I kind of think that the front wheel staying on is a great priority.
When we first got to the US we hired a baby trend and the front wheel rattled like crazy if you went faster than a slow walk and I thought, there is no way I will buy this one. I am now wishing I did - at least the wheel stayed on.
Please buy with caution and hopefully you get all the parts delivered!

We bought this stroller in anticipation of our second child. Our first is 20 months old and our second is now four weeks old. We wanted a stroller that was able to accommodate the many growing phases of both our children, without buying several strollers. I love that we can put our Chicco infant seat in the front and our toddler can sit in the back. As our infant grows, they can both sit and then eventually, our toddler can stand or sit backwards. It is extremely sturdy and I think it is a great product for the cost. This is the only stroller we will need as these boys grow. Plus the colors are great. I highly recommend it.Get more detail about Baby Trend Silverado Sit N' Stand Plus Double Stroller.
