For those with the Sit and Stand Strollers....

DH and I got the Baby Trend Sit n Stand stroller but I am not happy with it. The graco carseat we have snaps in at the back, but the front of the carseat needs to have a strap which goes across the baby to hold it down (this is what I don't like about the stroller). The sit and stand we ordered would allow both to sit in the seat and the rear seat can be removed for the older child to stand if wanted.

Are they all like this if you don't have the Baby Trend carseat? I would prefer a stroller where the carseat completely snaps in and may go back and look at the Graco strollers, but I like the idea of the sit and stand for my 2 year old as she gets bigger.

Can anyone recommend their stroller for toddler and newborn?

Thanks!

Don't bother looking at the one step ahead one either - it also takes a strap to hold the seat in place. Honestly I thought most of the doubles use the strap except for the graco - which honestly didn't work for us - when I tried DD in it in the spring and she was around 30% in size - she looked huge in it and it was like pushing a boat. I never found a double that didn't need a strap that we liked.

I wasn't too thrilled with the Graco either. I guess they all use the strap?

I know there are more Sit n Stand mommies on here, anyone else use?

I got mine from One Step Ahead and it's the same situation. Aren't snap and go strollers like that too? Anyway, to be honest, I never found it to be a problem. It was always very stable and I've been pleased with it. Have you looked at the Joovy one?
