Double stroller choices

MissMeegs

We have a single Bob, and we LOVE it. But we're having two babies in one year, so it's probably wise to sell it and upgrade to a double stroller. Especially since DS is a bit behind on motor skills so who knows how close he'll be to walking at 11 months when this baby is born!

For anyone who has used double strollers, particularly for an infant/toddler rather than actual twins, what do you like? My husband loves the Bob so he thinks we should just get a double Bob, but they are SO big. I wonder if there is a choice that is just as good but more compact?

We have the Baby Jogger City Mini Double and have very few complaints.  We have had it now for over two years and our two are 22 months apart.  The only complaints we have about this stroller is there is no cup holder and the storage area under the seats is very difficult to access.

When DS was little we just laid the seat all the way down and put in the JJ Cole body support pillow so he would be comfortable.  We opted not to get the car seat adapter but I can see how it would've been useful.

You cannot jog with this one so if that's important to you you'll need to look elsewhere.

I'm not a runner but DH does like to take it out for jogs now and then, though he is not an avid runner by any means. Thanks for the feedback on those two choices, I will have to head to BRU and "test drive" some options to see what works!

@LimaBeanMOM looks like albeebaby has the 2013 in green/grey available for $335.99:

I think ours is a 2011, we bought it the Christmas before my DS was born and I really loved the purple color... I'm not sure what has changed over the years but even at 2 and 4 my kids still both use it for outings/long walks/amusement parks, etc.

Thanks! That's a good price, will think about it!
