Toddlers: 12 - 24 Months

Double stroller question

We are expecting LO #2 in July and I'm doing research on the best and most affordable side by side double strollers. My friend has a BOB revolution duallie, and I admit, it is wonderful. It's easier to maneuver than my single Graco troller. But I just don't know if I want to spend $450 plus graco infant seat adapter, and other accessories. I know it would be worth it. But, are there any other strollers that are similar in maneuverability but cheaper in cost? I don't go jogging, but I do walk a lot on rocky terrain.

  • Any thoughts on the Schwinn Turismo?

  • I bought the BOB revolution duallie on craigs list for about $300, totally worth it!  I do jog, but it's great on any terrain.  I use my single BOB as my only stroller when I had 1, it is very awkward to push the double around the mall.  I found I don't really need a double except for jogging, but I didn't get a sit and stand to use at stores.
  • We looked at the Baby Jogger City Mini double and the BOB Duallie double. We settled on the City Mini since it moved so nicely. I was going to get the GT for the kids. However, we discovered my son refuses the stroller. I wear him everywhere, it's the only way to do it for him. So we waited to get the double. When we finally do get one we'll get the mini.

  • I have the baby jogger city select. It was great for the newborn stage with the carseat adaptor but now that they are 10 months and 2.5yrs It is a pain in the ass to get in and out of my car. I did rent the baby jogger city mini while on vacation and like that as well and it is reasonable priced. I don't have any experience with new born stage for that stroller but I think by about 3 months you could just use it with out a carseat?

    @jllmb79  where did you rent a stroller?  and where were you on vacation?  I'd love to know more about this as we are hoping to travel this summer and would love to rent gear!

  • I have the BOB duallie.  I only have one 12 month old but I bought it knowing I will eventually have another.  It is the BEST!  It pushes wonderfully and is such a smooth ride.  The only thing I do not love about it is that it is not convenient for travel.  I have the Britax B-Ready that I keep in my car for travel but always use the BOB when I am home.
