My friend had one similar to this, but she returned it. She had so many problems going through doorways because it was so wide.

Well, I was thinking that too, but figured any double stoller is going to be hard to get around with--lol

Re: Any mom's have this stroller and carseat?

I didn't get that double stroller, but i was going too..long story.

But I liked how light it was, and it folds up very compactly and how it handles.

I talked to a couple moms in the mall that have that stroller and both of them LOVE IT! Only down side they said was the basket could be larger, but they said to get some of those stroller hangers from BRU and it's solved. Plus basket size is always an issue when you don't have a full size stroller no matter if you have a double or single.

The moms i talked too both had kids of different ages in them.

Same, my friend did not like the side by side. I feel like you can't win with doubles. They'll all have pros and cons.

I'm not sure how big Julia is but Luka was just fitting in it at 12 months. I don't think he would be comfortable now at 22 months at all.

My SIL hates the side by side. She ended up getting the Peg Perego double back to back and loves it!!

She said the side by side is very hard to get around with.

Re: Any mom's have this stroller and carseat?

I looked at this one (it was similar to the Aria), but I went against it because I didn't like how squished my son looked in it. (it seemed narrow). I also didn't like that it was plastic (this was in 2006, when I was looking, not sure what it's made of now) and the center bar looked flimsy.Chat Icon

See and I heard the same about the back to back, and my sister had it also and hated it. A lot of my friends who just had there 2nd got the side by side and love it, thats why I was going to go with that. I guess I will just have to go to the store and see which one works best.

Def try them all out, plop Julia in them too in the store. Fold em, push em, lift em up folded and you'll def make up your mind.

i HATE the back to back ones too, my DD looked so squished in it and she's a peanut, plus i actually broke a sweat trying to fold down one of the tandems.
Plus with the side by sides, no one is going to fight about the front and they really can't touch each other.

My DD's hold hands when they're in the side by side. They both LOVE to people watch and that would be a big issue in the tandems.

I have no problems with my side by side double in stores.

I was petrified of getting a tandem because I'm a clutz to begin with and I was afraid that I'd clip my son (who would sit in the front) making a turn lol

Regarding the side-by-side (I don't own that particular stroller) I love it. I have heard that with a newborn and toddler it may pull to one side b/c of the weight distribution.

I love my front/back too, but that's only because it has a tray for snacks...it does feel like I am driving a huge bus sometimes. I have never had a problem getting into any doors or maneuvering anywhere with my side-by-side. I would just check the width and see if its standard so that it can fit everywhere. Good luck!
