Strollers...

Prego305 · January 2014

So what stroller is everyone getting, I think I have decided on the Bugaboo Bee.

tbmadeamistake · January 2014

We use the one that came with with our graco bucket seat initially and then C has a nicer chicco umbrella stroller. We'll just use those both for this one because they worked/work well for C.

I'm a Baby Jogger fan. First time we bought the Elite because it was perfect for the "roads" here. This time we bought the select because I like the single/double option. It's quite sturdy for when I take both dogs and both kids for daily long walks.

curlylocks3 · January 2014

We'll be using either a Snap N Go or the Joovy Roo at the very beginning when they are still in their infant car seats and then once they get bigger I have a Bumbleride Indie Twin. I assume at some point we'll switch a lighter weight stroller once they don't need to ride in it all the time.

MNOpea · January 2014

We have a single and a double bob revolution. I will baby wear a lot also though

MegRN2008 · January 2014

For DS1 I used the Graco stroller that came with our travel system and switched to a lightweight Maclaren when he got older. This time around I am fantasizing (haha) about buying the Baby Jogger City Select with the second seat. It is a steep price tag for me, but I think it will be worth it!

Curls do you have the bumbleride now? I have the snap n go but am debating between the side by sides (bumbleride and city cimi gt double) and tandem (city select double). I have been wondering how well the side by sides do day to day manuevering and shopping and stuff.

Britax B-Agile

MNOpea · January 2014

@katekat8721 a mom from my other bmb has the bumbleride for her twin boys and loves it!

BabyCurtiss2014 · January 2014

We got the Chicco Key Fit Travel System, looks pretty nice we already have it assembled lol

cMichelle0423 · January 2014

I'm getting a Graco something or other double stroller... can't think of the exact name. When baby #2 is born DS will be 16 months old so a single stroller just wont due. I guess it's a good thing we got some $40 stroller from babies r us to hold us over til our new lo arrives!

I think OP is trolling and trying to start drama, if you look up the stroller. I mean, maybe I'm wrong. But I'm having flash backs of that one chick who wanted the pram stroller or something. Anyone remember that?

Why would a stroller cause drama? I don't remember that post...

It wasn't on here, it was on the baby gear board. The cost of the stroller was very high and essentially it became similar to the July '14 crib drama. I wish I could find the post but it I can't remember enough to search for it.

Gotcha. If I was rich, I would push a beautiful pram all over my mansion. Alas, I am not

I do- I was originally looking at a City Mini GT (and thinking we'd wait until November/December to buy when they go on clearance again) but happened to see the Bumbleride on Craigslist. It was originally not on my list because of cost but this was only two years old and in near perfect condition for $350 including accessories- couldn't pass it up!

My SIL has the City Select for her two girls (18 months apart) and I didn't like the wheels on it. Plus really wanted all terrain for our weather. I originally wanted a tandem for ease of getting in and out of places and looked at the Contours Options Tandem. I worried about two kids of ~the same size outgrowing a tandem faster, vs being able to put the smaller child in the back. I

What eventually sold me was some reviews from moms of twins about the tandems getting harder to push as the babies get bigger based on how the weight is distributed. And knowing they couldn't pull each others hair or kick each other as well. The side by sides seem to maneuver really well and, legitimately, most places we'll go I think we'll fit. The storage basket under the Bumbleride is also amazing, tons of space. I think we'll be able to wheel over everything and I picked out a small tire pump to carry in the diaper bag or basket in case we need ot refill the tires.

chloephoebecali · January 2014

Another fan of sbs. I had a tandem and sbs, and hated the tandems. They were really hard to push. I don't think she is trolling. There are other strollers that are pricier, even in the bugaboo group. Personally, I didn't care much for the bee. I feel the cameleon has better wheels and options.

bebemac · January 2014

At first I wanted to get an Orbit, the Stokke Xplory, or the UppaBaby Vista. Then I realized how absolutely ridiculous I was being and ended up getting a BOB.

elittler · January 2014

I have a britax b-nimble for an umbrella stroller, and bought a double phil and teds on consignment for cheap. Now I just need to get rid of my baby trend jogging stroller!

SarahSmile01 · January 2014

We were given the Combi Catalyst with the travel system. I like the bassinet feature and it handles well . A friend received 2 for her shower so gave us the extra rather than returning it. Crazy generous. Seems nice so far. And you can't beat free. Although we do want to get a jogger as well. Thinking Bob. Just not sure which one.

melaneejo · January 2014

Uppababy vista. Love it!

caitb413 · January 2014

We just recieved the BOB Motion + Britax B-Safe travel system. I originally wanted the B-Agile travel system in granite, which is a hard-to-get color, but that didn't work out when we ordered it through Amazon (long, frustrating story). Decided on the BOB because the wheels are more durable and that is a big plus for all the trails out here.

LegalLadyBug · January 2014

Double snap n go and a britax b-agile double.

mattanda2011 · January 2014

We just traded in our city mini for a city select. I love that I can use it now as a single for my DD and then can use t for both.

I have trouble getting a regular stroller around the mall and stores sometimes so I couldn't imagine doing a side by side, but that could just be my own lack of coordination.

This will be us, also. I plan to babywear primarily in the beginning and then we'll use the BOB Revolution SE as a primary stroller and jogger.

flerlgirl · January 2014

Snap n Go for the infant car seat and a double city mini for later

reapaladino · January 2014

We just got the uppababy vista.. It's so easy to maneuver! we'll get a jogger when the baby is 4 month old (apparently you can't jog with a newborn).

hollygb22 · January 2014

We have the Uppa Baby Vista

Honestly..I'm not a fan of it. When we bought it I wanted a good quality stroller. That thing is a beast. It's great for walks around the neighborhood or park but for errands etc..it takes up most of my trunk and is just heavy and big to get in and out of the car. It's back wheels are wide so going to the mall, stores etc is a pain since it takes up a lot of space. The cons outweigh the perks for me. We have the Uppa Baby G Luxe umbrella..once we got that I barely use the UBV but for walks around the neighborhood.

If I had to do it again I'd probably go the Citi Mini route.

flojo973 · January 2014

I was considering the UppaBaby Vista but now I'm leaning toward the City Mini GT. Going to go to BBB this weekend to test drive them. I'm hoping they have the Britax's there too to test drive.

Rosebud2587 · January 2014

Well I already have a snap n' go, City Mini, BOB, and 2 umbrella strollers.

I'm thinking of selling the CM and 2 umbrella strollers and buying the Phil n' Teds Navigator with the 2nd seat. DD's at that age where she doesn't really like the stroller but I want the option of a 2nd seat for trips to the zoo, Disney, mall, etc. In the next few months (after we get out tax return) I want to make the 2 hr trip to BBB so that I can try the stroller out in person before actually buying it.

I'm still debating on the double BOB. I might hold off on that and see if she outgrows the stroller protest phase. Right now every time I try to run with DD in the BOB she unbuckles herself and tries to stand up in the stroller, making it really difficult to actually go for a run.

twistsandturnsto2 · January 2014

We've got a BOB revolution and then will also have an umbrella stroller for later. I'm also planning on doing a lot of baby wearing initially. I'm just hoping this combo works out for us. If not I may convince H to get something smaller than the BOB....

Jennylou0604 · January 2014

When it was just my son we had the Chicco Cortina Keyfit 30 Travel System in Fuego (red, white, and gray).

Since we'll have two almost three years apart we decided on the Joovy Caboose Ultralight Stand-on Tandem Stroller. It was on sale on Zulily yesterday so it ended up fitting in our budget

ADalesa29 · January 2014

Britax B-Agile. It was recommended to me by so many friends.

becomingmommyagain · January 2014

We just purchased the Chicco Cortina Travel system yesterday.

We went with this one because my sister has one that has been through 3 babies and is still going strong.

Im so curious! What happened with amazon? We liked the granite too and got ours through there. We didn't have any problems but was there something shady about it?

Lynnja616 · January 2014

Snap n Go- we have the Maclaren Easy Traveller. Love love love it. Then I think we'll look into a sit and stand for DD and this LO. DS will be 5+ and not really appropriate to be riding in a stroller anymore. www.toobigforstroller.com

Leaning more towards the BOB double stroller but they're soooo spendy.. I've been struggling between that and the sit and stand strollers

MNOpea · January 2014

@caitb413
Not sure when your BOB motion was manufactured but I just saw this on Fb! Hope yours isn't part of the recall!

Eta: and everyone else with the Britax strollers!

Thanks for sharing! I JUST bought the B-agile not too long ago and they were affected, fortunately my model number dodged the bullet somehow!

I recommend checking Craigslist. We found our double bob for $250, and I see them all the time for about $300 with accessories
