Good and bad
This product has some very good things and some very bad issues...
On the good side, it's inexpensive, very maneuverable, and comfy for the kids. The seats recline so you can put relatively young babies in there. It fits through most doorways, and isn't very heavy compared to most double strollers. I also like the colors. It folds fairly easily.
But there are some negatives. First, it does feel a little flimsy, especially when going over rough pavement or dirt roads. There's virtually no shock-absorbancy, and the wheels are made of foam instead of inflatable tires. The sun shades are USELESS - I really hate this feature of this stroller; they are tiny, so you have to keep moving them around, and they won't stay put when they're in anything but the highest position. Also, the handle positioning is weird; the outside handles are too far apart to use them (plus you keep stepping on the middle wheel). But the middle handle is too close to the others to use that comfortably, either.
I'd recommend this stroller for use as your "extra" stroller, or for when you need something small-ish or lightweight, like at an airport. If you are a heavy-duty stroller user, don't get this as your only stroller.
Addendum 8/25/2013: I've now had this stroller for 4 years, and I decided to raise the rating one star. Although the negatives above still hold true, I have consistently found this to be the best, most versatile stroller that I've owned (as a mother of twins I've got several strollers of different types). The best attributes are that it is lightweight, folds easily, and folds small. I have found that these characteristics make it WELL worth the money. It is the only stroller I still use with my kids now that they are 4.5 years old. I still wish the handles weren't the way they are, the sun shades are still useless (though older kids can now reposition them themselves), and there's still no shock-absorbency.
