Stroller Rec Needed

When this baby is born our DD will be 2.5. I think I want a double stroller, but I have no idea which one will work. We currently have a Baby Jogger City Mini and an old BOB Ironman. I think we'll hold on to the Baby Jogger. Here is a checklist of what we're looking for.  

  • Double
  • Good for tall kids and tall parents (I'm 5'7", DH is 6'6" and DD is off the height charts at the Peds office every visit)
  • Can jog with it (and no, I won't be jogging with an infant)
  • Accepts infant seat with adapter for the new addition
  • An easy to access basket would be nice too
Thanks for the recs!

Re: Stroller Rec Needed

  • I have the bumbleride indie twin.  It meets all of your criteria.  It is not a designated jogging stroller, but does have air filled tires and comes with a jogging strap.  The 2013 comes with a universal carseat adapter.

  • The Baby Jogger Summit X3 double would meet all your criteria I think.  I have the BOB Duallie and love it but it's not always the best for really tall kids.

  • FWIW, I had an Indie Twin and I liked it a lot but it just didn't cut it for me for jogging.  I know that you can jog with it and people do but I just didn't like it for that purpose.  I much prefer the BOB.

    I also have the Indie Twin and love it! I have done some light jogging with it and love it. It is advertised as a light jogging stroller...the front wheels also lock. It is a great stroller that meets all your needs. It is our only stroller and I use it shopping a ton. It fits through 95% of department store aisles I've been in.

    ETA: It also has one of the easiest to access basket I've seen on a double stroller. There is no middle bar, just a wide open access.
