 Great double stroller December 16, 2008
A. P. bush
this double stroller is great. it fits through any doorway, it is easy to manuever and doesn't take 10 people to turn left or right. the seat options are so cool. we have had this stroller for 6 months and still haven't tried out all the options for both babies. the storage at the bottom is huge.
another plus is that you didn't need a ton of tools to put the whole stroller together. if i can remember correctly, i only needed one screwdriver to put the cup holder onto the stroller.
the price was so good for the stroller. such a great value.
the color is fun too - a good red and the styling is nice.
all around, great product and so happy to buy it.
My sister loves it!!! December 9, 2008
C. Titus (Central Florida)
My husband and I bought this for my baby sister after the birth of her second child. She has a 2 year old at home se we thought she could use a double stroller for more convenince. We searched many different strollers and then settled on this one. My sis loves it. She says that the baby car seat (which is a different brand) sits prefectly on the stroller. It is easy to use and the 2 year old loves the fact that she can sit in front. Her only complaint is that she had a c-section, so it was a little heavy to pick up for her. Other then that she says very easy to use, very sturdy. She was worried that it might tip over if the baby wasn't in it, but she says it stays level with no problem. She highly reccomends it and so do we!!!
Grandson loves It December 8, 2008

I bought this stroller as a present for my daughter's 2 year old and newborn to use. The 2 year old loves it...he does't fight with her when she uses it and the older brothers will push it without feeling "girlie".
It is large and does take time to load and unload into a van....this would not fit in a small car trunk....
Once in use the wheels do not lock up and being able to postion the seating for the comfort of both children is a plus. The full storage basket handles the diaper bag and extras just fine. The cupholders are nice due to the flying sippy cups at times.
Very happy with this stroller November 30, 2008
Lisa Chu (CA)
Overall this stroller has been great for us! Pros:
It's very versatile, which is nice - my twin daughters can ride forwards, backwards, or even facing each other. Turning the seats is very easy, in case the sun is in baby's eyes.
You can use your car seats (we have Graco Safeseats which are supposed to be compatible, but haven't actually attached them) or the infant seats provided.
It turns on a dime and is the most easily maneuvered double stroller I tested (and I tested a lot of them).
It holds two cups and has a spot for keys/change. The basket underneath is large and holds everything you need.
Some minor cons:
I wish this stroller was a little more lightweight. But, it does make for a smoother ride since it's sturdy. I don't keep it in my car since it's heavy - it stays in our entryway for neighborhood walks, and bought a snap n go for our car.
I wish the bonnets weren't attached in the back so that you could pull them forward more. The sun is always getting in my daughters' eyes. Yes, they are only attached with Velcro, but if you detach there is a flap that hangs down where baby is.
A very minor con is the buckles are very difficult to loosen/tighten.
 Made for everyone November 30, 2008
toy fanatic (Illinois)
The only reason I'm scoring it lower is because it doesn't fit MY personal needs... but I think it's a good buy for other people. This is a very quiet/smooth ride and you can tell that they really took their time and tried to make a stroller that fit everyones needs. It's definitely a stroller of convenience but is somewhat on the heavy side.
The only problem I had with this is that my son is 2 but he's the height of a 4-5 year old so he doesn't fit properly in it. The bottom part of the seat is pretty narrow, and the foot rest is in the middle of his calf and you can't adjust it lower, so he looks pretty awkward and uncomfortable in it. Basically he looks like he's falling out of it all the time. But I've seen other people with this stoller and their kids look perfectly comfortable. So I wont say that I don't recommend it to people, I still think it's worth it - but if you're kid is tall maybe think twice.
The only other problem I found was with the safety bar. For my 7 month old, the bar goes right in front of her face so if we hit a bump she was hitting her face on it. Easy fix though, for the time being I just leave it open/off for her, when she gets bigger I'll just reattach it.
So bottom line, I don't think the seats are the best quality in the world but you're getting so many other convenient options, it's worth it.
