I have narrowed down my search of a double stroller to the Combi Twin. Has anyone had good/bad experience with this stroller? Has anyone used a Chicco infant seat with this stroller?
We have a small car and will be traveling alot internationally so we needed a double that is light and folds up well. We will have a 13 month old when the baby is born in July.
Re: Combi Twin Sport Stroller
We had it. It worked really well for when they were younger and I do recommend it, but I recommend buying it used. I found as the kids got heavier it got harder to push. I couldn't maneuver it very well in gravel once they reached a certain weight. I never had that problem with my city mini. But the way it folded it was amazing! I really did love that,
I used our Chicco infant seat with it. I didn't have an adaptor and it fit great IMO without one. It wasn't secure and I was very careful with it, but I was comfortable with it. The storage baskets were great but I was a little disappointed with the sun shades. I do have the city mini at all so when you compare the 2 there is no competition (the city mini wins) but if I just had the Combi I most likely would have been completely happy with it.
ive never had a problem with the city mini when it came to putting it in my trunk. I have an SUV (Acadia) though so that makes it easy. I've never travelled with it though so I can't comment. I'd imagine it would be difficult though, and I would prefer the Combi to travel with.
We have this stroller and yes, we've used our Chicco Keyfit with it. It doesn't "snap" in, but i wedges down into the seat (with the seat all the way reclined) and is quite secure that I feel comfortable with it. It's the most compact double that you'll find, as far as folding. It's a great stroller for those purposes, but it's just not very luxurious. I have a Britax double that I use for every day and they are night and day. The Combi is a rough ride over bumps, the basket is useless, etc. But if all you are looking for is something to quickly transport the kiddos in...it's fantastic!
