 Most Versatile Tandem Available October 3, 2008

I read most of the reviews for Kolcraft Contours Options Tandem Stroller - Ruby and the others similar to it. I am so glad that my husband and I decided to go for Kolcraft. It is true that it is on the heavy side and I'm only 5'3, yet I am able to transfer it in and out of our Hyundai Sonata. So far, I have only used it walking in my neighborhood and the mall. It seems very comfortable for my 2 kids, ages 3 and 1. They both fall asleep on our walks. I was a bit worried that the stroller would have trouble fitting in the small elevators at the mall, but no problems there either. Now this stroller is not meant for short outings. For those, I recommend a single stroller and a baby bjorn or just let the older one walk alongside. This stroller is a must for longer outings since the little ones can fall asleep comfortably. You will not regret purchasing this stroller if you can get over the weight.
Cannot live without it! September 30, 2008
Jennifer J. Johnson (Everly Iowa, USA)
My husband thought i was wasting money when i purchased this stroller. We have a 11 month old and a 1 month old. I needed something that i can use with the infant base. I read lots of reviews for over 4 months on different websites and i heard alot about the size and the weight. I decided to take a chance and buy in anyways, I wouldnt buy a different stroller! The weight is fine as long as your not petite. The size is alittle larger for a car, but fits great in a SUV. My husband loves this stroller more than i do. He even told me he is happy i purchased it. Its so easy to push. Going over large bumps and even walking through the stores with small walk ways it so easy! I love the fact that i change the position of the seats too! My 3 year old has found a way to hang out on the side and ride along(but she makes it heavier) I dont care what all the other reviews say, this is the best stroller! AWESOME PRICE TOO!
Kolcraft duo stroller September 29, 2008
Anne (Illinois)
I like this stroller very much. The design is very beautiful and practical. My two-year-old daughter likes it that she will be able to look at her baby brother while they are in the stroller. You don't see the option of turning the seats any way you want them in many strollers. I guess that is what makes this one longer than other duo strollers (it is longer than it looks on the picture). I gave it four instead of five stars because of this. The size makes it a bit hard to manage. Also, the buckles are a little hard to open and close, but other than that I can find no faults.
It would have been useful to have in the online information that it fits most car seats / baby carriers. While baby is in the car seat he will be facing me; only after he is able to sit in the stroller seat can he face his sister (the included car seat adapter is not reversible and should be attached in the back).
My husband likes it too, he said it looks very sturdy and is like a car (which is as good a compliment you can get from him).
Great deal for this price!
This stroller is AMAZING! September 26, 2008

We have 2 kids, a 3 year old and a 3 month old and this stroller suits all our needs! We can use it for both kids or just one, and we LOVE that it's lightweight and easy to steer. My son (3 year old) likes riding in the front and even though he's big for his age, he can still fit. I am short and petite, but I have no problem loading and unloading this thing. It was lighter than any other double stroller we tried, and we tried them ALL! The storage basket is awesome, as I can fit my over-sized diaper bag in it as well as tons of shopping bags. The wheels are large and go over curbs and bumps with ease and it turns on a dime. We get stopped frequently and complimented on our stroller and people were amazed that it didn't cost a fortune. It is, by far, the best baby purchase we've made. The downsides we've found in 4 months of use is that you have to take the seat out to fold it down. The push button system makes removing the seats so easy, even that one step is no biggie. Also, another negative, is the stroller seems larger than other double strollers- still minor hiccups when compared to the other features. WORTH IT!!
 GIGANTIC September 18, 2008

This stroller is HUGE- much bigger than it looks in the pictures. Heavy, and big. I put it together and never even put the kids in it. Might be great for wide open spaces but there is no way I am comfortable lugging this around for day to day errands and outings or getting it in/out of the car. It takes us the entire back trunk of the Toyota Rav 4. I am average size and you should be an olympian to maneuver and get this thing through doorways. I'm returning it.
