This stroller looks great an maneuvers easily. When I had my second daughter one year after the first, I bought a much cheaper side by side umbrella double stroller made by Jeep and although it was nice and light I rarely used it because it waa so hard to maneuver. I also had the eddie bauer single stroller model and liked it and was very pleased when I found this double model. My girls are now 2.5 & 1.5 and they both fit comfortably in either seat. They're big girls too about 30 - 35 lbs each. The fact that the front seat rotates so they can face each other and play is pretty cool too.

I have this stroller also. It is huge even when folded (although it is a snap to fold). It takes up the entire back of my minivan. I don't think the designers ever actually strapped real children into this stroller. The straps have never fit around my oloder child (he is very tall, but it wouldn't even strap on when he was 2) and my younger child, who is very average size, could only be strapped in until he was about 14 months old. Also, by the time they are old enough to need a footrest, it is too short. The holder pouch is very big, but difficult to get anything into, and the handlebars are too wide to slip diaper bag straps around. I often end up putting it on top of the sun shade, which is too low to be useful to the kids. It rubs accross their heads and drives them nuts. Bottom line, strap your kids in (if you can) and take it for a ride around the store before buying.

But, as far as double strollers go, this one is one of the best for my needs. I have gone through many strollers, I now keep this one for the walks in the neighborhood and my Chicco C5 in the vehicle.

This is the worst stroller ever, this thing takes up the whole back of my Grand Jeep Cherokee. It is heavy, I think it is 50 pounds, can't go anywhere with this, the back tires are very far apart making it very wide, I always need help when I get stuck in aisles in stores, getting in and out of doors. It is way to long, longer than all the other tandem strollers. The front foot rest is up to high, so my 19 month old son's ankles hit the foot rest(it is not ajustable) can't get stuff in or out of the basket easily, you have to unsnap it. The shade in the back gets ruined and doesn't stay up because of folding it up. I had the eddie bauer single and decided since I had the car seat for my new baby already to fit this, I would save money. I am buying another tandem after she is out of the carseat, so what a waste of money. DO NOT BUY THIS STROLLER, IF YOU WANT TO GO ANYWHERE!!!!!!!!!!
