Double Stroller for infant car seat

mama2kyle

Does anyone know of a double stroller where the infant car seat could go in the front?

We got the joovy ultralight caboose and love it so far for my 1 month old and 18 month old. The infant seat goes on front and the older kid is in back. The way it comes is with the infant seat in front, the older kid can do a sit and stand option. Or you can add an extra piece for the older kid to have a forward facing seat behind the infant called the Caboose Too. Then when you're ready the piece just snaps off and the back becomes a sit n stand option again. While the Caboose Too forward facing seat was an add on, it comes with the car seat adapter included so it was a trade off.

Graco Ready 2 Grow has options for the infant seat to clip in the back or the front seat. The back seat can also be removed so it can become a sit n stand stroller as your kids get older. We love this stroller for our two!

I'm so glad to read a review of this! It has been in my Amazon cart for the last two months. May I ask what brand of infant seat you have?

Yes, we have an Eddie Bauer/Safety 1st OnBoard35. If you have a Buy Buy Baby near you they might have one in the store; it was the only retailer I could find that carried them in stores and not just online. This is where I test drove it even though I bought it from BRU online because they had a really good deal on it at the time.

 

The infant seat is actually really easy to pop in and snap. If you add on the Caboose Too seat like I did you'll find it definitely gives a small space for the older child in the back. But it's doable, and I plan on my DS only sitting in the Caboose Too until he turns 2 this summer and then I'll let him use the rear facing bench seat. The smallish rear seat with the Caboose Too added on is probably the only downfall for me to this stroller. I test drove a LOT of them before choosing, and being lightweight and easy to open/fold were important to me. I was used to using the super light Uppababy GLuxe as my single stroller so I was shocked at how heavy and difficult most of the doubles were when I started testing them. The Joovy Ultralight was the easiest and lightest I could find.
