Recommend your double stroller....
We need to buy a double stroller for dd and the new baby coming to use when we go out with both kids. Not sure really sure if we should get a side by side one of the ones that are front and back seat? And what brand do you like best? TIA!
Re: Recommend your double stroller....
I have a Chicco side by side and love it!
I didn't get one, since my oldest was 3 when I had the baby. She liked being able to walk with me and felt more like a big girl when the baby was in the stroller.
My friends have the Graco double and love it
I have the phil & ted sport stroller and absolutely love that it is so versatile. Christian was 2.5 yrs. when Gianna was born and was really starting to not like to sit in a stroller anymore. I like that this can switch to accommodate a range of kids in different stages (came in handle at the park with a friend and her kids). Best value for the money IMO. Now I just use it as a single but I have the attachment that I bring with me in case he does want to sit.
I have the Baby trend Sit & Stand Deluxe - it can hold the infant car seat in the front (the new version might go in the back, don't remember). i got it at a consignment sale for $75, great condition. Now we're moving Maddy to a regular seat and it has 2 full seats that recline, plus the back converts to the stand area as Ben gets older. My kids are close enough in age that Ben still likes the stroller. REVIEW: it's ok. It's heavy, bulky (but I have 2 SUVs), and hard to steer with infant seat up front b/c of weight distribution. But it works.
I'm on a craigslist hunt this summer for that Peg Perego Aria side by side - I think it will be easier as they are older. Or something lightweight and side by side.
