Both seats feature a multi-position recline function. View larger. | A Stroller Built for Two
This versatile stroller has two seats that are ideal for use with a toddler and an infant, or even with twins. With the seats positioned in tandem, the rear seat rides higher so both children have a great view of the action. Both seats are compatible with the Graco SnugRide and Graco SafeSeat Infant Car Seats: simply snap your car seats from your vehicle into the stroller and go. Seat the kids directly into the forward-facing seats from the time they can sit up (around 6 months of age) until they reach up to 40 pounds in weight--so even when your children outgrow their infant car seats, you still can use the stroller for years to come. Each stroller seat is equipped with a three- and five-point harness, an adjustable canopy to shield the kids from sun and rain, and a handy snack tray with a beverage holder. Both seats feature a multi-position recline function, and the back seat can fold down flat to accommodate a napping child. Convenient, Easy Operation for Parents
Double strollers can be bulky, making them difficult to push and to load into your car. But the Graco DuoGlider LX is just 20 inches wide, making it easy to maneuver through doorways. Its lightweight construction makes the stroller easier to maneuver, as do the lockable swivel front wheels with suspension. And when you're done with your walk, the stroller's one-handed fold-and-latch mechanism easily collapses the stroller. The stroller includes a drop-down basket that offers easy access to your gear, even when the back seat is fully reclined; and the parent storage tray includes a convenient cup holder. About Graco
In 1942, Russell Gray and Robert Cone formed Graco Metal Products, in Philadelphia, PA. For 11 years, the firm fabricated machine and car parts for local manufacturers. In 1953, Gray left the firm, leaving Cone as sole owner. Cone decided to manufacture his own line of products, but had trouble coming up with ideas. Enter David Saint, an engineer, tinkerer, and stained glass artisan who worked for Graco. Saint, himself a father of nine, was intrigued when an associate told him how his wife would soothe their tired and cranky baby while swinging in a backyard glider swing. Acting on this inspiration, he went to the drawing board and 18 months of hard work later, the world's first wind-up infant swing, the Graco Swyngomatic, was born. Graco sold millions of Swyngomatics in the coming years, becoming one of the world's leading manufacturers of juvenile products in the process. Today, Graco is a Newell Rubbermaid company, with 1500 associates worldwide. While a half-century has brought many changes to Graco, their dedication and commitment to designing and manufacturing top-quality products remains, and continues on. What's in the Box

 loved it! kids loved it! October 31, 2008
Julia C. De Rosa V
I have a 4 and a 2 year old and they both loved it! the bottom tray fits a lot of stuff! and even though the front seat wont recline completely, as te rear one does, it does lean back enough for the child to sleep comfortably. this strolelr survived Disney and several airpor trips. had a little trouble closing it because of the front hood, but we got the hang of it! it's not as heavy as I thought it would be, and the girls loved it! both trays have a cup holder, plus a cup holder for mom plus a storage bin that fits the cellphone perfectly! minimum assembly requred (just the tires and trays)This one's a keeper!
Graco DuoGloder Stroller October 1, 2008

We have an 8 month old and a 2 week old infant and after doing extensive research, we determined that this was the best stroller for us. We needed our 8 month old to be able to sit in front and the back seat to hold an infant carrier. We are very happy with the design and style of the stroller and their is a large basket underneath for storage. It meets all of our needs and was the most reasonably priced of the double strollers. Now, after using it on several different occasions, we can't imagine how you would get around easily with a side by side double stroller. It is also very easy to fold up and unfold.

I am so happy with this stroller! We have loved using it this summer. I have a 3 month old son and a 3 year old daughter and what is cool about this stroller is that they can swith spots according to the temperamental wishes of my toddler. She can see great from both spots (if the front umbrella is off, which it always is for us). The only tiny probem for me is that when the baby is in the back, you can't see him and he is kind of covered by umbrellas (from the stroller and his car seat). The graco snugride seat fits perfectly in both slots and seems very safe. This stroller pushes great and maneuvers through tight spaces pretty well. It doesn't seem too heavy at all, even with the two kids in it. The front seat is larger than most stadium strollers so my 3 year old doesn't seem squished or uncomfortable (though she may be a little smaller than the average 3 year old). I really struggled between 4 or 5 stars because we do LOVE it, but the very few things are that thing I mentioned earlier about the baby in the back seat, and that it does fold up easily like it claims - but it does take up quite a bit of space in the back of our SUV for trips (however, I am sure that it is good compared to other models), and one of the front wheels somehow got warped already and we have no idea how- but it still works fine anyway. I would recommend this stroller over any of the readily available ones in Wal-Mart,
Target, etc. Spend the extra time and money and get a good one like this one- it'll be worth it. As for the color, this one is great because it could be for both a girl and boy, and is a nice gray color that looks nice with about any car seat color, and dad isn't embarrased to push it.

I am so disappointed in this stroller. My twins are now 6 months old. B/G and there is a big weight discrepancy between them. I have had the stroller tip back on me 3 times. At first I thought the added weight of the carriers were contributing. So I went out and bought 3-1 convertible seats for when they are older and installed them rear facing. But it has also happened 2 other times without the carriers. My heart dropped to my stomach each time. The very first time, I didn't have my son buckled in, but I still caught him from the adrenaline rush. Since then I always buckle them in. The seatbelt system is a pain and gets old real quick. It's a five point system, but not like car seats. This stroller may be fine if your twins are close in weight, but one of mine is 15 lbs and the other 22lbs. I have tried the heavier one in the front and back and it still tips. I have been saving up money to get a side-by-side stroller. It gets scratched up easy when you are folding it up. The canopy tends to get stuck under the seat, when you are opening it. The unlocking latch is a serious pain in the rear end. It seems fine in the store, but after using for a few months. I really would NOT recommend this stroller!

Graco DuoGlider LX Stroller
Nothing but good things to say. First is ease of use, opens and closes very easy, however some parts have to be easily removed in order to collapse fully. For a double, it collapses fairly flat, enough to fit nicely behind the 3rd row seats in my car. Opens very easily, and rides extremely smooth. I had to get used to pushing something so long, kind of like driving and old Cadillac, the hood goes on forever. Accommodates my one month old in his car seat and 20 month old on her own nicely. The rear wheel locks are independent of each other, and for lazy people like me, this creates a situation whereby I end up only locking one wheel, if they worked in tandem by some connecting mechanism that would probably be better, again for lazy people like me. For the price, a great acquisition
