Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

As a background, I have three children under 3 1/2, so I have to have a lightweight, easy stroller that turns easily, has decent storage, and doesn't take up a ton of space. I am really quite particular with my strollers, and I definitely liked this one of all the strollers I tried. Pros- *Folds really small, almost as small as my single graco metrolite stroller! *Has a latch to hold it together when it is folded so it doesn't keep opening when you're trying to get it in the car. *The front tray swivels, making it easy for the child in the front to enter and exit (important with a baby in an ergo so you aren't trying to juggle carrying kids!) *The front seat reclines enough that my 2 year old could take a nap in it (although she never has). *The front tires can be locked, making it easier to go over rough terrain. *The basket is easy to access and can hold a decent amount, although it isn't huge. I can fit a diaper bag full of stuff for three kids though. You won't be able to fit lots of bags if you go on a shopping spree. :-) *The parent tray cupholders are deep, so my drinks aren't spilling or falling out. *The center slot in the parent tray fits my smart phone and keys perfectly, and is just out of reach of my preschooler. *My preschooler loves to stand in this stroller! It has comfy handles for her to hold onto. When she gets tired, the seat is comfortable and has straps to keep her in if necessary. *Pretty easy to steer, although not with one hand. You can steer with one hand, just not easily. *Super lightweight, so easy to take in and out of my car. *My Graco carseat snaps into the front easily and feels secure. There is still room for my daughter to sit or stand in the back with the carseat in. Her head is pushed a little forward from the carseat, but not enough to bother her. *My husband doesn't kick the board where the child can stand! Yahoo! I don't either, but as a reference, my husband is 6 feet 2 inches. The other stroller we had, he kicked a lot! Cons: *Front seat doesn't recline completely flat, so a little baby would have a hard time napping in it. *You can't steer it with one hand easily. *underneath basket could be bigger, but seeing as this is a compact double, it's a good size! *My preschooler LOVES to push the brakes while we are walking. We are working on this. I don't blame the stroller though, she could probably do that on any double. *The sunshade is a little too small to help. Plus you could buy an extra one if needed. *No snack tray for the rider in the back. I solved this by purchasing one that clips on. It works great and my daughter loves it! Comparisons: (yes, I have really owned all these strollers!) *Joovy caboose- I didn't have the ultralight, although the only difference between the caboose and ultralight is weight. I don't feel like there is anything about this stroller I like better than the Graco. I guess the footprint felt a little smaller, and it was TINY folded up. There are a lot of things I don't like. The front tray doesn't swivel, it is impossible to steer, the basket underneath is useless and fell off all the time, when a carseat is up front, a child can't sit in the back, there is no parent tray so you have to buy one, and those aren't very nice, the sunshade isn't big enough, when you do put a Graco carseat in you have to use an adapter, the snack tray for the child is tiny, the front seat barely reclines, the seats are hard and uncomfortable. I guess one more thing I like more than the Graco is that it comes in fun colors! But not worth it. Graco is much better. *Graco ready 2 grow- This would have been my favorite, but I returned it for a few reasons. It is HUGE. I have an Expedition, and it BARELY fit in there folded. I couldn't fit my groceries from Costco and the stroller at the same time. The board where the child stands is so far back that I even kicked it when we walked (I'm only 5'5"!). My husband kicked it so bad that he decided he didn't want to use it at all, so I had to push it when we walked. The parent tray is ridiculous. Is swivels out for a drink, and isn't deep enough, so things always fell out. I couldn't fit my phone in the tray and even when I did my daughter could reach it. The brake is right below the child, and my daughter kept accidentally kicking it! It is a beast, and I could barely lift it! The things I liked better about this stroller than the one we have, the room for 2, are the following: definitely easiest to steer out of the strollers I tried. You can steer with one hand. It also includes an extra jumpseat so a baby can face you, but you have to wait to use it until the baby can really hold their head up because of the angle. It comes with two sunshades that are ample. When folded, it stands on it's own. I would say the obvious winner here is the room for 2. It comes in cuter color choices like black and green, but still not worth it to me! *Bob double jogging stroller, revolution (older version from 2009)- I have a love hate relationship with this stroller. It is an amazing stroller for jogging or even walking. I love so many things about it! The child seats are really comfortable and can recline flat, there is a peek a boo window on the sunshades to check on the kids, the sunshades are HUGE!, it steers so easily and pushes so easily that you don't notice the weight, the front wheel can either swivel or stay still, it comes in cool color choices. However, the things I don't like about this stroller make me not use it often. It. Is. GIANT! I can hardly lift it in and out of my car! It doesn't latch shut, so it is really hard to lift. There is no parent tray included, and the one you can buy is pretty lame. You have to buy kid trays separate. The stroller and accessories are so expensive!!!!! The basket underneath is really little, suprisingly, considering how giant this stroller is. We have small sidewalks where we live, and if someone is walking towards us, we either have to move to the street or they do. It is really big, did I mention? *Babytrend sit and stands (I don't own but tried out at the store)- these are nice strollers, that fold pretty small. I only tested them, but my impression was that they are made really cheap. They felt flimsy and the seats were kind of hard! They are not inexpensive either. I would go with the Graco. *Phil and Ted (don't own it, just tried it)- these things are cool because they really are the size of a single, and are SO incredibly easy to steer. My problem is the weight, the basket size is tiny, there is no parent or child tray, the sunshade isn't huge, and the poor kid in the back is practically riding on the floor and can't see anything. My three and a half year old is pretty small, and sitting in the back seat made her look like a giant! She wasn't comfortable back there! Hope this review was helpful! We love our Graco Room for 2 stroller, and recommend it highly. It isn't perfect, but no stroller is. This has the most important features to us, and our kids are happy when we go on long walks, which is so nice! They are close enough to share food and drinks with each other, but not so close that they are bugging each other the whole time. Good luck finding the perfect fit for your family!
