 Great for city use October 20, 2008

Jane Powertwin in Azulon
We've used our Jane Double Stroller for about 6 months now with our 18 mo. old and 9 mo. old and absolutely love it. It's perfect for bumpy city sidewalks and trips to the store. I don't have to lift it over bumps and cracks and it easily fits down store aisles with plenty of clearance for other shoppers. It folds and unfolds easily, is easy to steer, and is pretty easy to take jogging. It doesn't have a cup holder (you can buy one from Valco) and the basket isn't super roomy, but sturdiness and maneuverability were far more important to us. It's very easy to push, steer, and turn. As for the sun shade, it DOES come down quite far and covered our baby completely from the sun. You just have to push it forward past what is shown in the stock photos. Our infant has ridden in it since she was 2 months old.
This stroller is NOT for you if:
1. You have to take it in and out of the trunk (it's rather heavy). We have another Combi double stroller we take on out of town trips. The Combi is fine for convenience, but it is a pain to push on uneven surfaces.
2. You only use it once in a while at the mall on flat surfaces (save your $$$.)
3. Storage (both in the stroller and of the stroller) is a huge issue.
Excellent stroller - worth every penny April 29, 2008
K. Peacock (New Jersey)
Awesome stroller - easy to steer, compatible with an infant seat, slender enough to fit between clothing racks. Maybe there is a tad less leg room than other strollers, but my daughter had no problem resting her feet up on the front foot pate and there's plenty of room in the back seat. No doubt, this is the best double stroller on the market.
Perfect Fit For Our Family April 23, 2008
K. Jenison (Portland, OR USA)
This stroller works so well for our family's needs. We have 3 children(4,18m,&10w) and I have used this stroller for all of them at different points. It folds up very compactly for a double stroller, and is not as heavy as most doubles. It pushes wonderfully on all types of train. I haven't had any of the problems that others have mentioned. I will say that when buying any baby gear you should try it before you buy it. All kids are different, what fits my family's need might not fit yours. I love this stroller, I would recommend it to anyone looking for a double.
 Filled with regret for wasting so much money on this! February 15, 2008

Awful. Just awful.
Purchased online for my 25 month old and my newborn. My older child didn't fit into the seat from DAY ONE (and we purchased from a site that had no return option). His knees were up towards his chest and the sunshade is so low that we couldn't put it up at all, as his head would be pressing into it. He was only 25 months old and 29 lbs! They say up to 45 lbs - to me, that's insanity at best and at worst a bad lie - no 45 lb child would be able to use this, seriously. As for the newborn, you can recline the backseat all the way, but then the teeny-tiny sunshade doesn't protect them at all, so we had to spend MORE money on a separate sunshade that means we can't see him while pushing and it has to be untied to get him out from behind the front seat.
It's much heavier than it looks, and with the heavier child over the single wheel in front, it always wants to tip when turning corners.
The basket is virtually useless because you can't get to it. I have actually scraped the skin on the back of my hand trying to squeeze something in there.
PLEASE try and look at one rather than buying online sight unseen, because I really believe you will see that it's a waste.
We ended up going to a store in desperation and buying another $300 cheap-plastic combi double side-by-side that is flimsy and unsteady and I hate pushing, but at least the children can sit comfortably and recline and sleep in it.
p.s. we had the Bugaboo Frog for our firstborn and miss it so, so much, so for me it's not about the price - we were willing to spend more for quality. This is just a poor product.
 Very pleased with the Jane Powertwin February 14, 2008
M. Collins (Ireland)
I got this stroller for my 27 month old and my newborn last May and have got a lot of use out of it. My 2 year old (now nearly 3 and a very big child) is very happy in the front seat. The only downside is that she was too tall for the sunshade so I have never been able to use the sunshade on the front seat. She often sleeps when in the stroller and it is so easy to recline her seat and the back seat. Also easy to put the rain cover on and take it off. I had two punctures but it was just a matter of bringing the wheel to a bicycle shop to get a new tube. What is truly impressive is that I damaged the front brake disc two days ago, when the front wheel came off (appears that I did not put it on fully after I pumped some air into it). I emailed the aftersales service of Jane in Spain the night before last and today I got an email to say that a replacement brake disc was already in the post to me. Ten out of ten for that.
