  Yes! We have it and love it. BUT we didn't use it with the infant carriers-we actually got a used double snap and go. So glad we got it used because we hated that darn thing-it's so hard to steer! 

  
  

  We love the Bumbleride tough and the twins seem to really like riding in it as well. For us we wanted a side by side and not a tandem.

  @TREDgirl‌ I don't really want the tandem either. Did you find that the bumbleride is easy to get through with most doorways? I figured since I am having winter babies I will not be using the stroller until it gets warmer out. ( 4-5 months.). I don't really want to buy multiple strollers especially if I am spending over 700 for the bumbleride. Also is it considered a jogger as well.

  FWIW the reviews I've read on that stroller are great!

  We are doing the Joovy Twin Roo snap and go for $119 & then the joovy double jogging stroller for $250 (unless I can find a used City Mini for a deal!). I test drove it at BBB & the Joovy seemed just as nice. I just hope it fits in the trunk of my sonata. The Bob Duallie jogging stroller I bought, does not! 

  Edit to say.. Sorry I told you this twice! lol

  @MissEm15‌ I have a sonata too. Did it look like the joovy double jogging stroller can get through doors?

  @cls78 It looked to me to be smaller than the City Mini, which they advertise can get thru standard doors. However, I didn't check the exact measurement & I didn't test it. The joovy just seemed to be smaller and not such a monster compared to the City Mini.. plus its half the price.

  I just checked.. the City Mini is 29.75" wide & The Joovy is 30", both advertise can get thru any doorway. Oh and the Joovy is $229 not $250

  I have it and love it. Like pp we did not use it while they where in their infant car seats though unless we where going on a longer outing. It is heavy but it pushes very easy, you can get up curbs and stairs no problems. I also love how the canopy comes almost all the way over and has the vent opening on top if you want to peek in.

  Warning No formatter is installed for the format bbhtml

  No opinion on the indie twin - we're BOB people, but I've found that if a place is ADA compliant, a double stroller (SBS) will get around and through doorways just fine.

  It is very easy to push and maneuver-even 1 handed. Getting though doors is no issue but stores that have very tight aisles-I'm talking to you Children's Place!-are a pain in the butt. 

  
  

  We got ours on Ebay for around $500 new (floor model, last years stock.) So that may be an option. And the front wheels do lock so it is considered a light  jogging stroller as well. 

  
  

  My favorite part is the back portion unzips from the canopy cover so on hot days you can unzip that and the babies have air coming in behind their heads!
