Does anyone have a compact double?  
We have two double strollers (BOB and CitySelect) but we need something super compact for travelling.  Any suggestions??

TIA!

    I dont have one but I am thinking of getting a double mcclaren umbrella stroller.  We have the city select and it weighs 10000lb.  

    BTW - I love your siggy pic!!! Where is that dress from??

    I just got my Valco Snap Duo & love it! It only weighs 22 lbs (the Maclaren I was looking at was 27 lbs) and it opens in one step. It actually feels lighter when you handle it & pushes one handed.  It's not a compact fold though, so it may be a little big storage wise. It also has a great sunshade-which was on my must have list because DS is blonde & fair.

    The Maclaren is another option, as well as the Kinderwagon Hop that was kinda neat & got good reviews on amazon. From what I understand it folded down pretty compact. It just really depends on what you are looking for.  If you are wanting something less expensive Graco & Safety 1st have basic dual umbrella strollers.

    Honestly, I probably would have looked at just basic umbrella strollers-however there weren't many compact options that would work with a newborn & 19 month old.

    Thanks for the ideas... looking at them now :)  I hate the idea of one more stroller... but I think we need it for travelling.

    We just got a Combi Twin Sport (off CraigsList :) ). It folds up an extra step which makes it more compact. It can also stand on its own when folded and it can be pulled behind you on one of the wheels. We are going to be flying alot and traveling internationally so that is why we decided on that one. BRU doesn't have a floor model but BBB does.

    We haven't actually used it yet because I am still pregnant but it was recommended to me by some of my internationally traveling friends.

    What about getting two umbrella strollers and some of those stroller connectors? It will give you a little more versatility if you only want one stroller or if there is another person to push the other stroller.
