Double Strollers

posted 7th Nov
I know im really early on in my pregnancy but i cant help but want to start to think about things!

I am wanting to get a double stroller. i will have a 2 1/2 year old, by then, and a newborn. What are some good strollers? i have no idea about double strollers, heck i dont even know someone IRL who has one.

If you have a double stroller and have an age difference like mine please share what you have!

I have a Kolcraft Contour for my twins but it would be nice for a baby and toddler because the seats rotate and change positions. They recline and sit up. There are also handles for toddler to hold on to while walking outside stroller. It's nice and very easy to navigate, well for a double stroller anyways.

yes. my only complaint is it's not that easy to open or close and that can be a pain in my butt. It's a nice stroller though, I really love the fact I can change the seats around...I'm sure there will be days they want to play and others where they fight.

we have a ford taurus and it fits with the spare tire. You have to break it down, but you gotta do what ya gotta do. Double strollers aren't really made for convience!

hmmm...well I can say that taking the seats off isn't hard, they end up going down flat and the stroller frame isn't too big. It's not going to be too easy finding a small double stroller LOL.

I have a sit and stand which I LOVE. But, the storage isn't near as much as a regular double. But, it's light and small.

Do you have to stay under a certian price point. I have a phil and teds sport and love it. It folds up really thin plus it can be used as a single stroller if you only need a single. It can also hold a car seat as well. I can show you pictures if you would like I have a ton of them that I took

I found mine for $379 shipped. Since you have some time before you have to get it you can watch for sales to get it cheap or find it on craigslist.

Here it is in my ford foucs with my husbands ladder and tools in the trunk.




Here is the trunck before I put it in there
