 Wonderful, lightweight stroller! November 26, 2008
B. Proskiw (Lethbridge, Ab)
I did a lot of research before settling on this stroller to buy, and I'm totally thrilled that this is the one that we went for. It's super compact, sturdy, and actually feels lighter than my Graco single stroller. Because I'm used to the push-button convenience of the Graco that I have for my 2 year-old, this one was a bit awkward to get used to - there are straps to pull and a different folding system etc. But, there will never be a stroller that is perfect in every way.
Note that my son is quite small for his age, and I anticipate the same for his brother that is coming in a few weeks. I'm not sure it would be comfortable for very big babies....
I also ordered the car seat adapter and a cup holder for my water bottles, and I'm sure that I'll get a bit tired of having no place to store my keys and phone. BUT, the ease of use and lightweight feel of the stroller trump all of the little inconveniences, in my opinion. That's what a purse is for. (Alternately, you can buy a fanny pack and clip it around the handle bars for small storage as well...)
I'd absolutely recommend this stroller.
Best money I ever spent on baby gear! September 22, 2008
Neha Chokshi
I love this stroller...I can't say enough good things about it. It drives amazingly (even when I have a 3 year old on one side, no one on the other side and a baby in my arms) I can maneuver this stroller one handed in a 360 spin. Amazing. My kids fit well in it, they are so comfy and I have an easy time dealing with them.
OK so every baby item has some negatives...the ones for this stroller in my opinion are minor but I will mention them.
1. I can not figure out how to really keep the stroller folded. I have used some of the straps that I don't know what they are there for to do it but I am not sure if that's the right way. but it works for me and honestly, most of the time i don't even bother.
2. The stroller has flipped backwards 2 times. I have had little of no weight in the front and someone leaned on the handle...something to learn NOT to do. Not a big deal now that I know to be careful of that but scary when the little weight in the stroller is a 3 month old infant.
3. getting stuff in an out of the basket can be a pain...i can easily do it from the sides so it all works plus the pockets behind the seats are very roomy for things I need often. I think it's well worth the little trouble.
4. you have to take everything out of the stroller basket and pockets to fold it as small as it can. A little annoying but you can fold it without it being quite as flat if you don't want to take it all out.
All in all...this is the best stroller out there. It fits behind the 3rd row of my Mazda 5 (a feat in itself since I tried EVERY other stroller and only this and the aria 60/40 twin would do it) It's light weight, sturdy, comfy, looks so nice and moves sooooo smoothly and easily.
It's so nice when I'm struggling with my kids to know that the stroller at least will not frustrate me further.
 Not for Tall Kids September 12, 2008

This stroller handles beautifully and the size is great. However, I have a two year old who is quite tall and he has to crouch in order to sit in the stroller. I do not see it lasting him much longer. In addition, the seat backs are made of a soft material. My son likes to sit up straight in the stroller and cannot do so because the back of the seats are just too soft and do not support him. In addition, the buckles are not very long, so once he is buckled in he has no freedom to move or sit up straight. not a great option for sturdier kids.
A Perfect Stroller! July 1, 2008
Rick S. (WESTLAKE VILLAGE, CA USA)

I have bought about 8 previous strollers (some double and some single) and nothing even holds a candle to this stroller! It has all of the right combinations you look for:
Pros:
1. Great handling
2. Extremely light weight.
3. well balanced.
4. The best sun shade I have used to date.
5. nice shock absoption for using lighter, plastic type wheels.
6. The easiest set-up of a stoller to date.
7. The fastest and best folding mechanism I have seen.
8. Great spaces for holding things, especially if you buy the extra cup holder with insulated compartments. The cooler accessory works well too once you figure out how to get it on correctly (it took me 5 minutes).
9. While not a true jogger, it works great for rougher terrain and overall fast street walking.
Cons:
1. Not a visible enough brand...I wish I knew about this before I spent the money on the folllowing: B.O.B.,MaClaren, Jeep,Peg Pergo,Graco,Baby Trends, Snap and Go,Joovy Caboose! All of these have some, if not all weaknesses in the above catagories.
LOVE IT! June 16, 2008
K. Harmon (Salt Lake City, UT)
We just got our city mini double stroller this week and I have been thrilled with it. We only have a family sedan (Hyundai Elantra) and I was a little worried about it fitting in the trunk, but it is so compact that it fit in SO easily (lots of room to spare- and no having to remove wheels or turn it specific ways). It is wonderful to maneuver, light weight, compact, and VERY easy to open and collapse (you simply pull up on handles at the base of the seat and it collapses itself). I love that it has netted pockets on the back of the stroller for extra storage. There is no problem with the weight discrepancy between kids (I have a 5 month old and 3 year old) because the seats are independent and also recline independently of one another. The shades are wonderful- plenty coverage and both move independently of one another. The shades have two windows per side so you can see your children if you have the shade partially or fully out. The five point harness makes it no problem for me to take our 5 month old out on walks.
This stroller really is perfect. I do wish there was a place by the bar for me to put my cell phone and keys, but I understand that there is an attachment available, if I want it that much.
