Looking to buy a double stroller for a 2-year-old and newborn.  Recommendations?  I know no stroller is perfect but would appreciate stories and opinions.  These suckers are expensive!

    I used a City Mini Double and it was fantastic.  I would buy it again in an instant, but I prefer a side by side to a tandem.

    We purchased a single city mini last year, and I have been very happy with it. That being said, now that we need a double, I plan on getting the city mini double.

    I have used two different double strollers.

    Graco Duoglider:  Used with DD1 and DS for 2 years.  
    Pros-compatible with infant seat without additional adapters, huge easily accessed basket, cheap (bought secondhand)
    Cons-beast to steer, front seat has a shorter seat back and doesn't fully recline

    City Mini Double: Used for about 8 months now with all 3 kids
    Pros- easy to steer (one handed even), higher weight and height limits, larger sun canopies, both sides fully recline, lighter than a lot of doubles, easy fold
    Cons-Basket large but hard to access, price along with everything seems to be an add on (cup holder, snack tray, car seat adapter, etc)

    I wish I would have bought the city mini double 2.5 years ago.  It is hands down a much nicer stroller.  It suits our needs very well.  I have not bought any of the add ons. I just wore DD in a carrier until she seemed ready to go straight in the seat fully reclined.

    I just bought this one

     https://www.albeebaby.com/baby-jogger-2011-city-mini-double-in-purple-gray.html

     

    I cant find it on Craigslist ever and after ebay stalking for weeks this is still bottom line cheapest i've found it color isn't awesome but oh well Im excited! 

     

    I'm also not buying the carseat adapter since it can lay flat, once i live with it a bit ill see if i really need it & order it.
