 Very Pleased August 12, 2008
Erica Pebworth (South Carolina)
I love this stroller. I knew before I bought it that it would be kind of heavy so that was no surprise. It was very easy to assemble and is very easy to use. It opens and closes with little effort and the seats are very easy to take off. It manuevers very easily. It is easier to push than the travel system that I had for one child. I have a 4 year old and a 1 year old and they love to sit in it facing each other. The canopies cover the kids well and protect them from the sun. My 4 year old seems to be comfortable in it although she could use a little more foot room. It has plenty of storage space underneath and the storage space is easily accessible. There is even more storage room when you use only one seat. We took a trip recently and had enough room for the stroller, luggage for three adults and two kids, a cooler, and a few other things in the back of my trailblazer. All in all, I am very happy with my stroller.
 So big it cant fit my 3 year old. August 10, 2008
Natasha Mclaughlin (Longview Wa.)
This thing is so huge, it takes up my 3rd row in my mini van when i take it with us. it's seats are also to small to fit my daughters legs (and she is really short for her age) it also takes a litle time to unfold.
Good for big trips like the zoo,when the kid gets warn out and wants to nap (kinda)
but not something for every day. Be sure you have somewhere to store it.
Surprising August 9, 2008
Lil' Brudder (Strongbadia, USA)
We bought this after doing some research online for a double stroller.
Our biggest concern was handling, ability to use our car seat, and being able to store it easily.
We were not disappointed. I will put this in Pros and Cons.
Cons: It is not the lightest model out there. So once it is packed up you need to be able to carry 30 lbs or so. There are no cup holders for the kids. We really liked that feature on our single stroller, it is nice for holding milk and snacks.
Pros: There are more of these. Even though it is heavier then other models. My wife who is recovering from a C-Section was able to fold it up and put it in the car. The seats easily come off and on for versatile seating arrangements. You can face you kids in either direction, and recline then back with a nice sun canopy. The buckles are easy to use, don't pinch the kids.
There is a TON of space underneath, even with the kids reclined back, that was lacking in our single stroller.
The stroller handles almost too well. I can steer with one my wife uses 2 just because it moves so easily. We have both been impressed with the ease of driving and turning this stroller has.
Lastly, it looks great. The red and black are nicely paired, not too gaudy, and not boring either.
Overall, we would say buy this, unless you need something really light.
All my kids love this stroller August 9, 2008
Carolyn Nguyen
I have 3 kids (5, 2 and 4 months old). My 5 and 2 years old love this stroller. The reason I give it 4 stars is because it is not very roomy. If the manufacture make this stroller a little more room, then it will get 5 stars for sure.
Best Option for Us! August 8, 2008
Lee D. Gedansky
Our second child came as a bit of a surprise, so we only had about 8 months to adjust and make plans. We looked at a number of two-child stroller options. The most common that we saw, the side-by-side strollers, were just too wide and difficult to manage, with parents often blocking whole isles and walk ways. So, we decided a tandem was the best option.
We went to Baby-R-Us and saw the Countour-Options stroller before any other. It was big and red, so who could miss it. We had the same response as anyone else:
UPSIDE: configurable, VERY maneuverable, and room enough for stuff.
DOWNSIDE: big, heavy, took a little to figure out how to fold, and you need to remove the back seat to collapse it.
But, it's not unmanageably heavy, and how light can stroller that's supposed to support as much as a combined 80 pounds of kids, plus your stuff actually be? Also, if you are using the rack for the baby basket car seat, and you put the rack in back, you can collapse the stroller to within an inch of its fully folded form without removing the rack. Just fold the collapsible sides up. But, really, it's such easy on and off with the seats it's not an inconvenience to remove a seat anyway.
Since we first saw the Contour Options stroller, we have seen several parents with "Phil and Teds", which is one of those froo-froo labels like "BOB" that costs $400-$700+. It is a jogging stroller that adds a little sloping sled to the back so your baby can lay down or your older child can slide in like angled luggage. It is small, and light weight, but one child will always be slid in where he/she can't move much or see, and there's no room for anything in it. We also looked at the Graco Quattro just before we bought, and it was a close second, but wasn't configurable, so we decided that, for the money and what it can do, the Contour-Options is the best for us. So far, so good, it's been easy and fun to use.
