I think the product's name says is all... "Suburban Sufari". This is a stroller meant for suburan families who like the outdoors, but aren't runners. But if you're like me and like to take long walks w/ your kids, sometimes on trails and rougher terrain, this is an awesome stroller. My kids are 2 and half and 15 months, they fit great and love the new stroller. There's a big basket underneath and ride is really smooth. Definitley a great buy for the price!

We took this stroller to disney bc we figured my 4 year old wouldn't be able to walk all day. He and my 2 year old fit in the stroller perfectly, eventhough my 4 year old is really tall and weighs about 50lbs. We didn't have a major issue with the sun shade not helping much-it seemed to be ok if the seats were slightly reclined. The basket at the bottom was huge and held a lot of things. It was super easy to navigate through the crowds and we only had a couple of times where it didn't fit through doorways. The only small issue is that for some reason towards the end of the vacation, if I pushed the stroller without either child in it, the front wheel started to shake and wobble. As soon as you put weight into the stroller (bags or children), it stopped shaking. There was no danger to my kids though. Other than that, it is really worth the money and saved our lives on the vacation!!!

I have a 5 month old and a 2.5 year old and I LOVE LOVE LOVE my new stroller! I've had it for about three weeks now and have used it almost daily. Definately accomodates children of different sizes and thankfully has high enough seats that my 2.5 year old can no longer lean forward and drag her fingers on the pavement as she did in my double umbrella stroller. :) Light weight for a double jogger (much lighter than the tandum duo strollers I looked at) and rides very smooth. Great option to lock the wheel for jogging and swivel for casual/mall use. AND I love that it is thin enough to actually make it through most single doors! Even at home, I was able to assemble it inside and wheel it out the standard sized door. Great storage by the handle and underneath. Only wish that when the canopy is open, I could still see what my kids are doing.

I have a 3 year old and a 4 month old and this product definitely helps out on my walks. I read many reviews saying that if your child is tall this isn't a good product because their head will hit the roof of the stroller and their legs will hang over the foot rest. But I decided to buy it anyways since I needed one. My daughter is 36 inches and she fits in this stroller just fine, sitting up or laying down her head doesn't reach the top and her feet just barely touch the foot rest.
The only thing that bothers me is sometimes when you're staying in the same spot for a long period and then you go to move again sometimes the wheels for some reason don't want to maneuver at the same time. But after a second it's back up and running.
For the price of this product it's great, it serves it's purpose beautifully.

I bought this stoller for my twin girls. I received this stroller and it took about 10 minutes to put together. Very easy to do! The stroller is very sturdy, roomy(my almost 4-year old fits in it) and pushes wonderfully! Like other people, my only complaint at this time is that the sunshade is very small. Would have paid a little more money to have a better sunshade. Can't wait to use it this spring and summer!

I love this stroller. I wanted one to put my 18 month old and 5 month in and be able to go out walking on our dirt road. This stroller has a smooth ride and is very easy to push. The basket underneath is huge! The cup/misc holder for parents is great. I can hook toys on the front bar for the kids. They love riding in it. They can recline separately and both nap easily in it. I have taken it on trips and it folds up and fits in the van well. I have not had trouble getting it through doors. I did purchase the kiddopotamus sun shade, the one on the stroller is terrible. The extra sunshade is flimsy but it works just fine and covers them completely. I think this is a great stroller and a great price!

I love the way this stroller handles, and it seems comfortable for the kids (10 month old twins). It folds easily and, though heavy, is easy enough to load into the car (but be sure you have the space-- it barely fits into the back of my Subaru Forester). The downsides are (as mentioned by others) the flimsy sun shade (doesn't actually provide shade due to its illogical angle) and the wonky front wheel (which goes "jittery" at times but then rights itself, no problem). I hope they fix the sun shade problem in the next model, because it's really problematic for one of my kids, whose eyes are more sensitive to sunlight. (We solve the problem by attaching a light blanket to the shade with clothes pins.)

We purchased this stroller for our children, ages 4 and 2...and one on the way. Our oldest loved the color of this one, which is terrific since the price is reasonable compared to other double joggers we had been looking at. We ordered it and received it within the same week. It was amazingly easy to put together. I mean, if I can do it, anyone can! I think my husband was jealous I didn't let him put it together. We tried it out the very next day at the zoo and we all loved it. It moves smoothly and the girls were very comfortable in it. It has plenty of storage for a smaller soft box cooler, drinks, coats, toys, etc. You can lock the front wheel if you choose to do so, which is a nice feature. The buckles/harness really keep my wild 2 year old in! The weight requirement is 100 lbs. So, once the new baby is old enough to ride, our oldest will be too big for it. The ONE negative thing is that the sun visor isn't as helpful as we wished. It would be nice to be able to move the shade back and forth to whichever way the sun was shining. If we are heading directly toward the sun, it shines right in their eyes. Other that that, PERFECT quality and price!

Nice stroller. Smooth ride and is exactly what I expected from the description. Only complaint is that it is a bit heavy, and takes some lugging to get it up and down stairs. But I can't imagine many other double strollers weighing much less. I'm very happy with this purchase.

Lightweight, easy to maneuver. Front wheel tends to be bumpy when not locked in. Otherwise, happy with product.
