jogging stroller vs. one behind the other double stroller

Just wondering what kind of double stroller you would recommend? I don't know how you would get a double jogger through doors and around places like the zoo.

Re: jogging stroller vs. one behind the other double stroller

  • Most side by side doubles are designed to fit thru a standard door way, so that should not be an issue. The places that tend to be harder are small shops or narrow sidewalks. The tandem (front to back) can be very long and hard to drive.

    If you want a double jogger with out the width you could look at the Phil and Teds doubles or the Mountain  Buggy Plus One.

    All of this.  Usually side by sides are easier to push which actually makes it easier to get through a doorway.

  • We have a tandem Britax bready and it's not hard to drive at all! So far in gold I got it instead of a side by side so it can be used as a single too!

  • There are a lot of side by side doubles that fit through standard doors and have no trouble being pushed through the zoo or even a park.

    Do you really want a "jogger?" or an "all-terrain" stroller.  These are two different things and you will most likely find more slimmer options in the all terrain category.

    The City Mini and City Mini GT are excellent choices, the Bumbleride indie twin, Valco Baby Tri mode and valco snap are good too.

  • Thanks ladies, but those are all way over my budget. I can't afford to spend more than $200 on one.

  • Check your local Craig's List, you should be able to find a city mini double or a joovy sit and stand (that you could get a seat for the stand part if you want) for what you want to spend. Unfortunately double strollers tend to be pricy. These two may also be good options for you https://www.walmart.com/ip/Dream-On-Me-Freedom-Tandem-Stroller/21368212 or https://www.target.com/p/chicco-echo-twin-stroller-coal/-/A-14780356?ref=tgt_adv_XSG10001&AFID=Google_PLA_df&LNM=|14780356&CPNG=Baby&kpid=14780356&LID=PA&ci_src=17588969&ci_sku=14780356&gclid=CJmDoujd-7wCFYZAMgodaBEADQ

  • Oh ok.  Well in that price range, your options are limited.  I also suggest you check Craigs List for a City Mini double.

    That's gonna be tough! Definitely start checking CL and consignment shops/sales. And yard sale season is coming up- I've seen great deals on barely used strollers at yard sales!
