Schwinn Free Runner 2 Double Jogging Stroller (Blue/Gray) Best Quality

0 comments

I wasn't totally thrilled with this stroller. The sunshade only covers kids when the sun is directly overhead, my two-year-old's head already sticks up over the seat back, and the frame doesn't feel too solid. But it was fine; I only used it for walking.
However, the first time I took it in the car, I had to take the front wheel off. As I was pulling the frame out of the car, I dropped it and snapped off one of the plastic pieces that holds the wheel on. I just called the manufacturer, figuring it is an easy part to replace. No, it isn't. The part is considered part of the frame and is irreplaceable. So I am now out $250 and have a stroller that can't be used.
I figured I got what I paid for, but I only had the stroller 6 weeks. So if you buy this stroller, be careful with it, and don't expect any help from the company!Get more detail about Schwinn Free Runner 2 Double Jogging Stroller (Blue/Gray).

Phil and Teds Sport Buggy "Version 2" With Doubles Kit: Black Buy Now

0 comments

After watching some videos on youtube, hearing friends praising it, being exhausted by travelling with a baby and a toddler, I decided to go ahead and buy a phil and ted. I have now tried it irl with both kids in it and I'm so very happy with it and feel it was worth the money spent. I can't say much bad about it really but the one issue that bothered me and the only thing keeping me from giving 5 stars was that they don't make a sunshade for the extra rear seat only. As my toddler would not want to be covered by the double sun cover and that would be the only way to cover baby in the back, there's a big need for a solution for covering just baby in the back. I have however ordered the protect-a-bub sun shade (not phil and ted brand) that had excellent reviews and made with phil and teds in mind so I'm hoping that will work well. I'm sure there will be a phil and ted cover like that avaliable in the future as I've read many reviews with this particular concern. Other than that it really is great and folds up quite compact with the extra seat that comes of in a secon not taking up more room than an extra sweater in the trunk. Really recommend this!

We've had this product for 2 years now and it's withstood tons of abuse, beach use, running, etc. I gave 4 stars because we've had to have the spokes adjusted a couple times, but overall great.

Baby Jogger 2008 Performance 20" Double Stroller - Navy/Yellow Decide Now

0 comments

The Baby Jogger is by far the best jogging stroller made. I looked at them all before deciding to purchase this one. My only hang up was that Baby Jogger is a bit larger than the rest of them, and will not fit through a lot of house doors. I decided that I would rather fold it, or leave it under the patio cover rather than buy a different stroller that would fit through the doors. We are very happy with our decision. It rides like a dream. We have a 3 month old and a 2 year old, both seem to love it. We roll a towel and bend it around the head of the 3 month old to keep her head steady. It does lean back further than I thought it would though.

Very well made, drives great, and I would recommend it to anyone.Get more detail about Baby Jogger 2008 Performance 20" Double Stroller - Navy/Yellow.

Lowest Price Graco Quattro Tour Duo Stroller - Gianni

0 comments

I received this as a gift when I was pregnant with my 2nd. I have a 2 year old and an infant now. I have to agree with the other review - it can be very difficult to set this stroller up. It is heavy and you have to have a system in place to get it in and out of the car. I have to line it up parallel with my minivan trunk and then lift it up and put it in the same parallel position. It can be very difficult to manuever once you have lifted it into the trunk. It just barely fits sideways in my trunk. Same story here with getting my infant into the rear seat. You have to always recline the back seat first which was tricky at first but now I am used to it. Then you have to tip the infant seat in a weird way to get it to lock into the seat. The front wheels lock in a straight position each time and the back brake goes on each time you fold it up. I'm used to all those weird features now.

BROKEN HANDLES - we just flew to FL last week and the stroller didn't make it through the gate check in process without breaking. BOTH handles broke off completely when they gave me my stroller back at the gate. I'm about to start my research on how I get replacement handles - I'll be sure to edit my review based on what I hear back from Graco.

I did a lot of research before suggesting this stroller and it does get great reviews. I'm not sure what went wrong here...Get more detail about Graco Quattro Tour Duo Stroller - Gianni.

Low Price Baby Trend Double Jogger - Gray Mist

0 comments

I purchased this new at Babies R Us after our second daughter was born less than a year ago. Although I've never jogged with it, I've walked with my daughters on some pretty rough trails without a problem. A few weeks ago one of the tires went flat and I couldn't fix it, so I contacted the company for a replacement. I couldn't get through on the phone so I e-mailed them through their website. Within a day I heard back stating that they would ship a new wheel. Within a week I had a new wheel, free of charge without having to provide a receipt to prove that it was under warranty! I would definitely recommend this stroller or any Baby Trend products.Get more detail about Baby Trend Double Jogger - Gray Mist.

Save BOB Sport Utility Stroller Duallie in Pacific Blue

0 comments

We love our double jogger! The kids are so comfortable and it pushes really nicely. My husband was joking that it is like a mini SUV. We live on a horse farm and I push up and down our bumpy dirt road and to the park with ease. The tires are really big and sturdy. I am glad we didn't go with the swivel because I think the bumpy road would have made the jogger turn to the side. I also love the parking brake because I can put it on in the barn if they fall asleep and I can ride my horse. I am looking forward to having it on the beach this summer. I know it will push through the sand easily. The canopy's cover all the way over my daughter's feet. This is the only stroller that keeps the sun out of her eyes. It has been a life saver with a 6 month old and 3 year old. A must have! Get more detail about BOB Sport Utility Stroller Duallie in Pacific Blue.

Cheap Baby Jogger Summit 360 Double Jogging Stroller, Red Black

1 comments

I bought this stroller a few months ago and I have to say that I am totally impressed with it. I considered the double BOB but this stroller was a better choice hands down. I had a BOB single but always felt like my little boy was hunched over a bit. This stroller has a higher back so he has plenty of growing room. It's great on all terrain. It has front and back shocks and it is just a comfortable ride. I have my kids in it for 1-2 hours at a time and they seem to be very comfortable. I really like the quick fold and I also like that the handle bar sits high up. It doesn't adjust but it is high enough that I never have issues with kicking the back of it. Neither does my husband and he is 6'2. I just love it and would recommend this double to anyone. It's awesome!Get more detail about Baby Jogger Summit 360 Double Jogging Stroller, Red Black.

Buying Baby Jogger City Mini Double Stroller

0 comments

Just returned our city elite double and got the mini double- i'm in love! the elite was SO heavy-46lbs- and the mini is 26lbs! i can ACTUALLY lift it into the car without killing myself. The mini has all the same great features and can handle outdoor strolls fine (not jogging, but i'm not athletic so no prob!) My 6 month old can lay flat and take her naps at disneyland and my tall 2 year old is super comfy and can climb in and out. We got the belly bar attachment as they love to have somewhere to hold onto and it makes it much safer, I can just pop in my 2 year old at disney when he wants in/out a million times w/o having to worry about strapping him in constantly. Get the sunshine kids caddy-fits perfect for drinks keys etc. I also have the mini single and LOOOVE it too :) The new baby joggers have a much bigger basket too, this is brand new for nov. 2009 and newer strollers :) GET IT!Get more detail about Baby Jogger City Mini Double Stroller.

Buy Phil and Ted's Sport Double Storm Cover

0 comments

Could not get a cover for our double Trek Go-Bug - they no longer make a rain cover - and this was the only one big enough to possibly work - the velcro fit OK even though the brand is different and it keeps the kids dry so suited our purpose without having to remake. Likely works even better on a Phil and Ted Sport Double.Get more detail about Phil and Ted's Sport Double Storm Cover.

Purchase Tike Tech Double T Stroller - Blue

0 comments

It took several weeks for us to receive the stroller (that was because UPS damaged the first one they sent), but when we got it we loved it. We have a 10 week old and a two year old and they both fit in the stroller fine. The handle bar does not adjust heights, but it is much higher than other handle bars. I like the shade that the canopy provides. We have not yet used the rain cover but we are glad it came with it. Very smooth ride for the children and easy to push while running or walking!

Order Tike Tech Double Trax360 Stroller - Orange

0 comments

Pros: beautiful, totally unique lime green. Great handling over the roughest terrain. Easy to push fully loaded with babies. Comfortable handle. Babies can put their feet up over the handlebar and totally lounge. Great brake, very secure.

Cons: sun shade won't keep the sun off til they are about 3 - their heads have to be waaay up there to be underneath it. One of my babies (1 year old) cries every single time the sun is in his eyes and the shade is no help. Reclines too far back and can't sit up straight (drives same baby crazy). Very hard to fold and unfold, very heavy and unwieldy, and doesn't get that much smaller folded. When folded, it is very precarious and can tip over. Since I have nowhere to put it and must keep it in my living room, I leave it unfolded with the brake on because at least it can't fall on them. Straps are HORRIBLE. They are at least a foot too long, take a long time to disassemble and adjust, and keep slipping to be too big. I have never had so much trouble with straps in any baby product.

Where To Buy BeBeLove USA EVO-DS Double Jogging Stroller

0 comments

I read soooooo many reviews on this stroller before I purchased it and was skeptical to say the least but for the price, it has been one of the BEST purchases for getting around with my two girls. It came fully assembled which was great, the tires were a little deflated but my husband has a compressor so it's been very easy for us to add air whenever necessary which is ever 3-4 trips.
I do have a bit of a stroller obsession. I have a GRACO tandem for every day running around and traveling. I have a double umbrella for lightweight carrying and subways, trains, etc. I use the jogging stoller for walking to the park, supermarket, anywhere around town and ESPECIALLY the beach. It rolls over the sand much easier than my other stollers. The huge sunshade is FANTASTIC, my husband thought I was nuts bringing it to Sesame Place but it was the best thing I did. I can't carry the kids when they get tired.
Overall, it depends on your individual needs. It is heavy and cumbersome, it's not for everyday but it washes easily, dries quickly, I don't have to take it apart like my other strollers and reassemble which is always a chore.
Yes, I have spent a combined $400 plus on 3 strollers but some strollers cost that much for one and I have different needs when it comes to transporting my children (currently 2 and 4) and besides VARIETY IS THE SPICE OF LIFE!!

Shop For Jane Red PowerTwin Double Twin Stroller Buggy

0 comments

We bought this stroller for our 2 year old and newborn. The compact design is great for steering in tight store aisles and it folds up compactly to fit in most cars. The 3-wheels makes the stroller easier to push too. The stroller could have been AMAZING if the designers had made a few adjustments. For one it should have been made for a taller toddler so my average-height son was already too tall for the sunshade when we got the stroller and his legs could dangle down to the ground and bump the front wheel. The swivel-wheel locking mechanism constantly became stuck in locked-mode making it impossible to steer. I eventually permanently super-glued it into swivel mode. The infant seat is too short and open. The only thing holding the baby in is the strap otherwise they can literally fall through to the bottom basket! It's not great for newborns to lie down comfortable unless you add an insert of some kind.

While there are things I like, if I had to make the purchase all over again I would not buy this stroller.Get more detail about Jane Red PowerTwin Double Twin Stroller Buggy.

Combi Counterpart Tandem Stroller Night Rider Review

0 comments

I got this stroller from a friend, brand new. I took it on a test drive to Disney land for 6 hours. After one day, a wheel is bent, and my arm is totally killing. I have larger kids--42lbs and 28lbs. There is no way this stroller could hold the maximum pounds. I was counting on this because my younger child has special needs and will be in it for a while. The manouverability is rediculous. The parent cup holder is not in a workable spot if you put your diaper bag on the handlebar. Folding it is very difficult unless you're a houdini. I think that's how my wheel got bent. What stroller damages itself when folding? This one! The storage is inaccessable, um need I go on? OK. I will. In the middle of the night I woke up with the most excrutiating pain in my arm.

Thinking of this one for big kids--ie, not new born? Just DON'T!!!Get more detail about Combi Counterpart Tandem Stroller Night Rider.

BabyShade® Double Stroller Cover Protects Infants in Canopied Twin Strollers from Sun, Rain, Wind and Flying Insects Top Quality

0 comments

First, the adhesive/velcro fasteners which attach this cover to the stroller were inadequate to say the least. Second, it is opaque, so the kids couldn't even take in their surroundings. Since it resembles a parachute, the only reason that the kids even got fresh air was because the *stupid* thing wouldn't stay attached to the stroller, the kids probably wouldn't have had fresh air. Go for hats and sunscreen/protective garments instead!Get more detail about BabyShade® Double Stroller Cover Protects Infants in Canopied Twin Strollers from Sun, Rain, Wind and Flying Insects.

Torre Sicily Double Stroller Organizer with Bag This instant

0 comments

We have a Baby Jogger double stroller, and this organizer/cup holder is a lifesaver. It's easy to take off and on, so if you're actually going for a run, and you want to leave it behind, you can, but if you're using the stroller for a day trip, this attachment gives it all the accessories other strollers have-- place to put the sippy cups and store all the toys and binkies-- and more. There are a ton of pockets on this thing, even one with a zipper, good for storing cash and keys and other things you don't want to lose. (I actually use a different stroller attachment for runs, one that just has cup holders/zippered pockets without the bag, so it doesn't flap against my legs: http://www.amazon.com/Carry-You-Sicily-Stroller-Organizer/dp/B000SN69S6/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=baby-products&qid=1261882858&sr=1-1) This is a really well designed product, and I highly recommend it for anyone looking to add functionality to a double jogging stroller. We've actually loaned this out to friends from time to time, and it seems pretty versatile as well, they've been able to make it work on various brands of double strollers.

Tike Tech Double T Jogging Stroller - Maroon Immediately

0 comments

We have been using this for 3 years since our twins turned 6 months. We have it in blue. I love the rain cover, how it reclined for when they were babies, being able to look through the top if you want or close the flaps if it is too sunny), and the handle bar for the kids to hold onto. My kids are in the 75th percentile for height and we have never had an issue with the cover. I have found this easy to push, even up steep hills. The brakes work well for down hills. My kids love this stroller and still love to go for a ride at age 3 1/2. I have always used the mesh bags on the back to hold my water bottle or snacks, the bottom basket for diapers, etc. I'm 5'5" and my husband is 6'1" and this is comfortable for both of us to push. We will be looking at the single version for our new baby.Get more detail about Tike Tech Double T Jogging Stroller - Maroon.

Zooper Tango Stroller, Red Waves Best Quality

0 comments

I have four children, 4 and 6 year old boys and I have twin girls that are now 1 year old. I purchased this stroller when they were about 9 months. I absolutely LOVE it. It is easy to fold and unfold. It also is freestanding when in the folded position, no worry about it tipping over or anything. You can put a carseat in on one side. It comes with a strap that you attach to the stroller and it snaps around the carseat, just as in any other stroller that the carseat "snaps" into. If you're in a pinch, you could fit two carseats in there, but be sure to have two straps - of course I'm sure this is NOT reccommended by the manufacturer. But just thought I would put that in there. The canopies by far are the coolest feature. They come all the way down to the bar and have a "viewing window" for the children so they can see where they are going. If it's hot, you can unzip the last zipper and it unfolds the netting in the back so air can flow through, but still keep the sun out of the kids' eyes. We used the boot (that came with it) all winter long and it kept my girls cozy for those trips in and out in the cold weather. I also have two sons in two different schools. Therefore, I used this thing a minimum of 8 times a day. If I can do it without complaining, this stroller makes my job that much easier! It steers great and fits through STANDARD doorways. I do nudge the cupholder here and there through doors, but it's worth it. I had the long double stroller frame for their carseats, but I believe the girls LOVE the way they can sit next to each other and see each other better. The only disadvantage is shopping with it in small stores. Not that it doesn't travel well, however, in department stores and clothing shops while trying to navigate in between displays, it can be a bit cumbersome. But again, I use thing stroller in and out a minimum of 8 times a day and LOVE it! I can't say enough! Get more detail about Zooper Tango Stroller, Red Waves.

BOB Stroller Strides Fitness Stroller Duallie in Red Buy Now

0 comments

I bought this for our twin boys, aged 14 months. We own two other strollers, one side-by side from Peg Perego, another graco metro, front-back style. For many functions this one is superior.

Advantages: Easy to turn, easy to push, feels very light, good to run with. Turns on a dime compared with other models I have used. Both boys get to see the scenery (I think the ones with the back seat as an afterthought for the younger kid are really unfair). Good storage underneath the stroller.

Disadvantages: Hard to get through some store doors. After running for 3 days in a row with this I developed carpal tunnel syndrome, the stroller materials do give good directions for avoiding this though they didn't work for me so I no longer run with it. Never used the stroller strides package...nor has my wife. Fairly difficult to fold up...not so much in terms of the actual folding, but the storage is awkward...doesn't fit easily in the back of my Honda CRV...it fits, but manipulating it to get the front tire in is difficult. Side wheels do pop off easily.

Overall I think this model is excellent and hard to beat in terms of the competition. For day to day errands etc. I think it's a bit too big to be functional, and I didn't have much luck running with it but I think walking with for exercise it is fantastic.

Great rain cover, very tailored for the stroller providing a great fit. Covers every possible surface except for handle. Very sturdy, doesn't fog up.
