 shakey and unsafe September 8, 2010
Erika (Boston, MA)
I bought this stroller because I was enticed by the sleek design and low price (compared to much fancier models). Well, you get what you pay for. My husband put the stroller together following the instructions to the letter. And while my two year old loves to sit in the front seat, the stroller is barely usable. Scarily enough, the screws literally FALL OUT of different pieces, including the handlebars (there are only two attaching the bars to the rest of the carriage). Luckily, the two handlebar screws have not fallen out at the same time, as it would totally detach from the carriage, sending your kids careening off on their own. Also, when going on or off a curb it feels like the wheels are going to snap right off. I refuse to use this stroller for safety reasons.
I would have returned this but didn't take the test run until after my second arrived, a few days after the return date, wouldn't you know it. Do NOT waste your money on this.
 Perfect Double Stroller August 20, 2010
IowaMom (Iowa, USA)
We have had this stroller for four months now, and I'm so glad we chose it. When we go out we are often stopped by other parents who compliment us on the stroller and say how cool it looks. The seats can be arranged in any order, so it accomodates our needs easily: we can have both kids face each other, both kids face the opposite direction, or seat them in a row looking at me or looking out. This way we can separate the kids if we need to (i.e. one child is throwing a tantrum and kicking)Yes, this stroller is large, but it mnaneuvers as easily as my regular size single stroller. It can turn easily and I have found I can bring the stroller into stores with ease- even getting it onto small elevators without a problem. We keep this stroller folded up in our minivan. Yes, most of the cargo area is filled by the stroller- but it's quick to set up or pack away, making it a lifesaver as I have 3 boys under the age of 5. I do my grocery shopping with the boys in it and just stash my purchases in the bottom. My oldest boy can even hold onto the hand strap when I need to keep him close. I can't imagine anything better!
 good for twins not siblings July 24, 2010
V. Rothman (USA)
the stroller would work good with twins i guess,
my daughter difference is 13 months and my older one
almost grew out of it.
we returned the product
Had higher expectations for it July 15, 2010

I bought this stroller while I was pregnant with my second child. Never having to use a double stroller before, I didn't know what to look for in buying one. I saw a family with this and asked them how they liked it. They gave it rave reviews so after reading up on it more I decided to purchase it. I didn't want a side by side because I feared it would hog store aisles and sidewalks. That being said, this stroller still cannot fit through clothing sections at department stores. Since it's so long you have to strategically place it away from where you're shopping, which I do not like not having my kids right next to me. It's akward to take into restrooms to change diapers because there's no where to put it without it being in the way of others. **My biggest complaint with this stroller is that the company did not give the construction of the handle much thought. They used screws to assemble the handle bar to the arms. Both screw faces have snapped off(at different times) and we've had to replace them with a stronger temper screw. Also, the drink carrier should have fasteners to secure it to the backside of the handle because it has popped off on me a few times.**
Likes:
Seats are comfy, can recline, and can be put on in any combination
The basket underneath has lots of room for storage
It's easy to steer(see dislikes below)
It comes with a carseat adapter(which fits MOST carseat brands)
It has a 3 point harness system
The canopies are nice and thick and keep out the sun
The bar, over the child, unlatches so you can pull the child out easier
Dislikes:
With the seats reclined(both facing the same direction), one child is laying on top of the other
It's difficult to steer the more weight you have in it
It takes up alot of space when storing or transporting
It doesn't come with food trays
It's long(you have to do 2+ point-turns to get it in & out of elevators)
Parts of it feel cheap
Best Double Stroller May 18, 2010
A. Marshall (Texas)
Amazing just about covers it. I have this stroller in red and it is just beautiful. I have 2 other double strollers in the garage that I had purchased before finding this one. I only needed to use the other strollers once to know that they were horrible and only had to use this stroller once to know I had finally struck gold. The best things about this stroller are:
*The many different options in the seat configuration. Anyone with more than 1 child knows that somedays your kids are in love with each other and will not do anything without the other one and then there are the days were you think they might actually kill each other. I can face them and they keep each other occupied or turn them back to back.
*The seats themselves are great. Plenty of room for toddlers or infants. The adjustable footrest is wonderful.
*Very roomy. It's like each child gets their own front seat. No more fighting over who gets to actually enjoy their ride! Other double stroller have no room for whichever poor child gets stuck in the back. They cant see anything or even move their feet. I can't tell you how many shoes I've lost because my daughter tried to move her feet and they got stuck on the front seat.
*A large basket that you can actually use. It doesn't matter how big of a basket they put on other doubles because you can't use any of it except a tiny little spot thats free in the back.
*Great manuverability. Comfortable to push. We live in a small out of the way community where not all the roads are paved and the ones that are most of the time need some serious work and this stroller takes the abuse well and my daughter doesn't complain about the bumps.
I do have to admit that I drive a large vehicle so I have never had to try and fit it in the trunk of a car. However I have had no problems with folding the stroller for storage. It doesn't take up more room than any other double I have had.
BOTTOM LINE: GET THIS STROLLER YOU WON'T BE SORRY
