Recommend your side by side stroller

I'm looking to get a side by side stroller to use this summer.  I'm looking for something with a good sun shade, and sturdy since we'll be mainly using it outside and would like it to last for the next 2 years.  I want something that allows them to sit fairly upright, as well as recline if they want.  It would also be great if it was under $200.  TIA!

  • I really like my Maclaren SBS. It's super light, has sun shades, & decent storage. I think they retail for over $200 but I got mine used (the previous owner had hardly ever used it so it was in mint condition) off of CL.

    GL!

  • This. I got ours off of Craig's list. Practically new for $165 and it's awesome.
    Warning No formatter is installed for the format bbhtml
  • I was given a Maclaren SBS in great condition for free, so it didn't make much sense to spend the money to get a new one!

    Pros:

    The sunshade is huge and great, the girls can sit upright or recline nicely (great for stroller naps), it's lightweight, easy to fold up and takes minimal space in the car, the seat pads are easy to get off and wash up well.

    Cons:

    Basket underneath is small and hard to put anything in that doesn't squish up- like a jacket.  There is no place for my coffee, water bottle, etc.  I've tried to find attachments for it online and can't find anything that would hold a cup of coffee.  No snack tray for the girls - I have a Rally.

    HTH! 

  • Maclaren Twin Triumph here too.  I really love it, but I agree with the PP's Con's about it.  You can't fit much in those baskets (I usually don't even try) and there is no cup holder.  I have also scoured the internet looking for one that attaches and they all get bad reviews on Amazon.  Oh well.  It saves me $4 at Starbucks.  :)
