Economical and Safe Double Jogger, April 30, 2007
We were looking for a double stroller that was 1) under $300, 2) was side-by-side, 3) had individual, adjustable seats, 4) a swivel front wheel 5) good shock system, 6) a sun canopy, 7) a storage area under the stroller, 8) easy fold-up ability, 9) durable material (in decent colors) and easy one-handed maneuverability (jogging with dog and children in tow).
We got everything we asked for with the Schwinn Free Wheeler 2 Double Jogger. Some added bonuses include 1) side-by-side double joggers are bulky and usually very heavy for one person to collapse and throw in a car, or store in the garage, but this one is a one handed collapse and collapses to about a one foot width. It is light and easy to pick-up (even for a 140 lb pregnant woman) 2) there is a small storage sack and wrist band that comes with the stroller. The storage sack goes in the handle bar area and the wristband is included as a safety precaution if the stroller gets away from you, it is still attached to your wrist. 3) the brake is fantastic! We have a very steep driveway and locking it to close the garage is of no concern. It has a sturdier locking mechanism than our Maclaren single stroller.
I am not an easily persuaded buyer and if you check my history, I don't take the time to review often. This stroller deserved the time and energy to tell others about it's A+ness!
Added side note: Please always have your children wear helmets while you jog! If they don't make a helmet small enough for your child, they are too small for a jogger.

My preschool children are comfortable and goes easily through doors., January 30, 2009
I researched this stroller choice so thoroughly! As all moms know, a stroller can make or break an outing!!! I actually got up the guts to ask people at Disneyland how they liked their strollers and after much research chose this one.
It is a beauty! It didn't disappoint when it arrived!!!
Stroller Size:
My 2yo dd is 38" and 37lbs my 4yo ds is 40" and 38lbs. They fit very comfortably. My daughter actually cries when we take her out. They perfer sitting in it to watch TV! They have room to grow wider and taller without any troubles. Others mentioned the bar and the tilt of the seats being a problem for their children, my had no trouble at all!
***IT FITS THROUGH A REGULAR DOOR WITH NO PROBLEM AT ALL!*** It is larger when folded, but that is typical.
Stroller Performance:
It steers like a dream, much easier than my front and back stroller and much easier than my side by side umbrella stroller. I cannot feel the children's weight at all and jogging behind it was not difficult.
Pockets:
All of the pockets are a little on the small side, but suitable for daily use. Each of the children's seats have a small drink holder on one side and a very small snack pocket on other. The soft parent console is suitable for keys, a phone and a water bottle. It may be dangerous to use with a hot drink though. Each seat has a small pocket on the back and the under the seat pocket is suitable size.
I am very happy with my choice of stroller. I hope this review helps your decision making.

Excellent in all areas, May 27, 2008
We have 4 boys and with a 2.5 year old and a 3 month old, Mom wanted out of the house for walks during the day while I'm at work. Well, this fits the bill. Excellent, well designed, comfortable and light weight. One reviewer mentioned it doesn't lock. Either something is wrong with her particular unit or she doesn't have the locks all the way down. When ours is locked, it's not coming undone. And it has a one hand, slide and squeeze for easy folding. fits through 36 inch doors and you can free wheel or the locking pin in the front is great to hold the wheel straight and use as a jogger. I would HIGHLY recommend this to anyone looking for a double. Oh, we always have problems with the sun, this one comes far enough out to keep the sun out of their eyes, even when they are laying down. Large bike type air wheels make bumps smoother, even on gravel. And the removable seats are cusioned and easy to throw in the washer. Easy removal. GREAT GREAT Product! And we have lots of experience, this being our 4th stroller.
