Chicco cortina double or Graco Quattro duo

I just cannot decide which stroller is more practical. I put DS in both of them yesterday but only tried to close the Chicco ,which was very easy. I guess I am looking for feed back on either if you have one of the two. Also if you can add how old your children are.

bump....

Re: Chicco cortina double or Graco Quattro duo

I have the Graco & its much too bulky & heavy, so heavy I bought another double stroller. I don't know anything about the Chicco but from my experience I would go with the lighter one.

Re: Chicco cortina double or Graco Quattro duo

I really liked my Chicco except for two things...........when you use the infant seat you CANNOT in any way access the storage basket. I had to click the seat out to get to my diaper bag which was quite annoying. Also, once they are in the main stroller part I found that the seat doesn't really allow them to sit up enough. It's too reclined even at its highest setting. After a while I would only strap my DD in around the waist because being restrained so far back was driving her nuts..........she couldn't reach her tray or her sippy. It was a good stroller, durable, easy to fold down, not to bulky compared to some others, but those two little quirks irked me. Overall though I was happy with it.

Edit - My DD is 2 now.

Re: Chicco cortina double or Graco Quattro duo

i keep going back and forth between the chicco double and something like the city select. I keep going back to the chicco double. i had the singel and it was a little bulky but the double is only three lbs heavier then the single and i have the chicco car seat and i sat my dd#1 and she si comfy in this. the only other test i have to do is go into bbb and see if either fit in my trunk best??? i dont want to get a stroller and it not be able to fit. It should be fine. hope i helped. The chicco is easy to open and close.

I have the chicco single and love it!!

Re: Chicco cortina double or Graco Quattro duo

I have the Cortina single and love it. When DD #2 was born this past July, I bought the Chicco double. I hated it and returned it. I felt like I was steering a bus. I also found it very heavy. I bought the Combi Twin Sport, and I love it. My first DD is 2 1/2, so we use the double to go to the park or on walks. I don't put the infant seat in it (not sure if you can), but it reclines back, and the baby is very comfy in it. I had her in it from about 3 weeks on.
I use the Chicco single with the infant carried when its just the baby and I running errands...its very rare that I have the two of them out at a store together, so it works for us this way.
