So, I kind of don't like my new stroller.

I thought I loved it....but I don't. I have put it on CL to see if I get any hits, and I have my eye in the 2011 BJ City Mini Double that is on sale on Amazon for $299.

Mine is big and bulky....which doubles will be. But the seats sort of tip towards the center. There is nothing between the 2 seats to keep them stable. This also causes the sun shades to catch on one another. The 2 safety lock things on the sides don't stay engaged, and the fabric that velcros over the side doesn't stay on.

I want to like it.....I will deal with it if I can't sell it. Dh is annoyed about me not being happy with it. 

I am bummed and have buyers remorse. Boo.

    FYI- The city mini is cheaper through. www.rightstart.com no tax and free shipping.. Still $299. -- hmm.. nevermind.. They seem to be gone.. I just had one in my cart on like Saturday and didn't buy it. BOO.

    Hopefully you will get a hit on it on CL.

    It is the TikeTech double, got it online and tossed the box because I thought I loved it.

    Bummer! I have Amazon gc's, so it would even out with my free shipping.

    That's a bummer.  And very odd that there is no support between the seats.  It seems like it would have to have one.

    That really stinks, sorry S!  It looked so nice the day I saw it.  But the part about them leaning in to the center is ridiculous!  You would think any double this amount of $$ would not have been the case.

    That stinks! :(  I am also dealing with a double that I don't really like (Graco duoglilder), but it was free from my SIL so I can't really complain too much. I also want the CityMini, but can't really justify spending the money right now.  Good luck posting it on CL!

    That really stinks! It looked really nice, that's a shame it isn't what you thought. Hopefully you can get a great offer on CL and get what you really want.

    I ordered the 2011 city mini double on Amazon for $299 plus free ship and returns. 3-4 weeks for shipping, so it will give me time to sell mine. 

    =)
