We are looking at the City Mini Double! It has the adapter for the Chicco key fit so both can be in there! DD will be just a bit over 3 when LO arrives.
Got the 2010 model for 25% off! Obviously, we haven't used it yet (it's for LO#2), but we decided on this one mostly because of it's light weight and ability to fit through most doors. It also collapses really well and will fit into our small car.
Everyone has reccommended the Citi Mini Double to us so that's what we're going with. I tried the tandem strollers in the store and hated them. I hated the front kid was too far away and I found them really hard to steer.
We did the City Mini Double... I LOVE it...and I did ALOT of research.
Runners up were the Bob (loved the ease of use but hated the size) City Select (loved the different configurations but hated the size of the seat... My taller 2.5yo. did not sit comfortably)
We have the Phil and Teds Sport from when our DD was born and I thought that I would be eliminating our need for another stroller when we added to our family. Unfortunately, I had no idea what would be important to me when I actually had a child. Though I love it for light runs and long walks... I cannot imagine having my child sit so low to the ground. Also, it does not fold super easy at all!
we LOVE our city mini double for our twins. It's been our only stroller since the snap and go and have been extremely pleased. I highly recommend it and think it is worth every penny!
City Select! It kicks ass It can be either a single or a double, which is awesome, and has like 16 different positions you can put the seats in. We bought ours to be a double, and have been using it as a single to get used to it and already love it.
We had a Phil and Ted Sport with DD (now 5) and DS (now 3). We loved it and recently upgraded to a Phil and Ted Explorer. I don't find the smaller child to sit too low. We jog and love it. No problems folding it up either. My only complaint is limited space in the basket.
We tried the Britax B-Ready and the City Select in the store just to make sure we were getting the right stroller for us. The B-Ready was bulky and cheap feeling. The City Select (I think that's what the double is called) was also bulky. I wanted something I felt was going to last, especially for the amount of money I was spending.
I have a city micro for my twins and really love it - it's like the city mini but some minor differences, smaller sunshades and not as much recline... it's cheaper and it works great for us.
We also have a BoB duallie which is awesome for jogging or walking outdoors on bumpy surfaces/hiking etc. but not so great for taking indoors since it is so bulky and heavy

I got the City Select. The new seats are deeper than the old model so that helps with fitting the older kid. I really like the configurations and such.

GL!
All of this, exactly Plus we have the City Mini single and I just adore it.
When my ds was born my dd was only 18mth. We were given two different strollers. The baby trend sitnstand deluxe and the chicco sidebyside. I use the babytrend every day. I prefer it over the sidebyside because it was easier to use in narrow aisles in stores and on sidewalks. I tried a few others but my dd is really tall and she always seemed to be smooshed in some of the other double strollers.
The baby trend can be hard to steer, but I think that is just because of the weight of the kids. Now that my dd is 4yr, we removed the full back seat and she can hop in and out the back easily. It has been 2.6yrs and I will continue to use it till it falls apart . I guess I will just sell the chicco since it has been sitting in my garage taking up space.

yep. I love my CS. I never thought i'd love a stroller this much. If the donkey weren't prohibitively expensive (for me), I'd have looked at it.

Re: Double Stroller Suggestions please!
We just got the City Mini from https://www.albeebaby.com/

I looked at the Donkey, didn't like it.
