Hi Moms, We are looking for reviews on Double Strollers. Anyone have a Double Stroller that they love or hate? We're looking for one that is hopefully under $400, lightweight & easy to colapse. It will be used for a newborn and a toddler, do Double Strollers come with the carseat??
We need help please : )
Wow! Thank you for all of your help! We're still not 100% sure but have narrowed it down to the BOB...that's if we can afford it Lol!
Thanks again moms, your awesome!!
we have the graco double stroller. Can't remember the model but it is brown and green. My girls are 23 month apart. I bought it when my little one was born and I still use it often (now 3 1/2 and 1 1/2). It does take a lot of space though. I use to fight to get it in and out of my accord trunk. Now I drive a crossover so its a lot easier. Not too heavy and just roomy for both to be comfy. Maneuvers with ease. Good luck.
I have a four year old and a 15 month old and we have the Peg Perego Aria Twin. Love it! It's lightweight, doesn't take up a ton of space, easy to open, easy to close, BOTH seats recline fully, easy to manuever and I think it was about $350--check Babies R Us.
It also has one side that you can snap an infant carrier into, but I never used it for that. I just put my bigger kid on that side since that side is a little wider than the other one.
Couldn't be happier with my purchase.

We had twins last Feb. and love the B.O.B. Revolution dualie. After reading so many reviews online where people repeatedly said they went with a less expensive model first, then ended up buying the B.O.B. anyway, we decided to go ahead and splurge. The thing will last us for years, it can be maneuvered with a fingertip, we don't have any problems with doorways or aisles, and we got in on sale at the REI anniversary sale. They do have an attachment for an infant seat, but we didn't use it because you can only do one...which would be perfect for your situation. It's not the lightest thing around, even though the frame is airplane aluminum, but most twin strollers aren't. I can easily fold it and lift it up and into the back of my Odyssey....and I'm almost 52! We have no regrets whatsoever about the B.O.B.....and my husband is the kind that researches a big purchase to death. He even talked to a lot of people who had them at a NICU reunion we attended. Not one person had a negative comment, so we were sold on it.
We love our Combi, they make a couple of dual strollers. Super lightweight, easy to open & close (one-handed!), great 5 point harness for the older one and the infant seat is so easy to pop in and out. Great company, they really stand behind their products.
We receied a gift to buy a double stroller last Dec when my 2nd baby was born. I JUST found one I liked 3 months ago. It was very frustrating! I have a 1yr old and very tall soon to be 4 year old. We ended up getting the Schwinn double jogger. Its roomy, very easy to manuever and easy to fold and isnt very heavy. There are a few draw backs, there are little pouches to hold a water bottle for each child but no snack tray.
I did a ton of research on this since I have a 2.5 year old and a baby on the way due in January. I chose the Babytrend sit n stand double stroller: http://www.babytrend.com/sit_n_stand_double/SS76095.html because it is the only one that accepts an infant seat closest to the handle AND converts that same seat to a regular seated stroller or a sit n stand. I could not find anything else that versatile - most sit n stand strollers only take an infant seat on the opposite side from the handle, but I want my toddler up front. I only paid about $170 for it at babies r us. The infant seat does not come with that one, but you can get a coordinating one at babies r us for only about $90.
I've seen alot of Combi double strollers. Lightweight and easy to open and close by yourself. You might want to check that out. Babies R Us might have them. If not, Baby Emporium will probably have them.
Babyjogger.com great strollers the micro is around 299 very sturdy and high end strollers the next one up is the mini around 399. Also the sit n stand does not take all car seats. I looked into it for using as a quick stroller when shopping for my 2 1/2 month old and almost three yr old so he could also have the freedom but my chicco did not securely fasten in and to get it in it somewhat tight her head looked like it was pointing down. Sit n stand also makes a dbl stroller where the back seat can be removed to have just the platform to sit and stand which is nice cuz while ur little one is in the stroller/car seat the older one has options freedom to sit or stand or put seat in when they would like to also rest and lay down. I think it's only around fifty dollars more for that go to babies r us and check it out.
I have the Sit and satnd stroller (Baby Treand LX) and I love it. I have a 3 year old and a 8 month old. We have used it since my second son was born, It holds any type of carrier carseat that you may have That is by far the best stroller. I like how I can let my 3 year old have a little freeedom by standing up but at the same time I can make him sit and strap him in if I have to. So If I were you I would go for the sit and stand one. I think we paid $129.00 at Babies R Us, you can get it at Target as well. Hoped this has helped. Have a Great day, and A Merry Christmas!
I love my joovy ultra. it is a sit and stand where you clip your car seat on. babys r us carries the the normal joovy but I ordered my joovy ultra (lighter and a few other things...check out joovy.com) from amazon. right start carries many strollers and they have floor models you can look at just like baby r us. I think it was around 250/260. I still use mine and my little one is 20 months and older one is 5.
