Anyone have the Peg Aria Double with the 60/40 spilt??

any recent reviews you ladies could provide? Im in double stroller research he*l..
i put Mila in the smaller side, which shed have to be in for now since the larger side holds the infant seat..
I like that tha infant seat is VERY secure, and much closer then that of the Citi Mini, BUT, it definately doesnt seem to handle as well, and im concerned that even though Melania is so little, she may get uncomfy in there, and be TOO close to Chat Icon ..

Anyone have it? Do you like it love it hate it??

we were 100% convinced we were going to get this one until we went recently and looked at it again...and decided against it.... first they recently changed the wheel lock and every sample (there for 5 in the store) were broken... the other thing was that because there is no middle wheel and the wheels are so far apart, as the children get older and heavier you will start having issues with driving (which my friend who is manager of stroller sales at bbb pointed out)... they also just changed the tray on the 2010 models as well.. but the biggest thing was the break which no longer is a step break but a hand break and it was constantly causing issues just on the floor models... so needless to say we switched and are going for the city min instead.....

this is all i needed to hear, and ya know what, my dh said the same thing about the wheels and the weight of the kids getting to be harder to steer with only the two wheels..
I didnt even know about the break issue..but what made me nervous is that the BBB model of the Citi Mini that has the infant attachment, is ALSO broken, and im nervous that its gonna give us a problem..
my dh thinks its just because its a floor model and so many people are pulling 4 different kinds of carseats in and out of it all day..i hope hes right..
are you getting the infant seat attachment? What did you think of it?

we havent decided if we are getting the infant seat attachment or if we are just going to get the padding to put under the baby for added support instead.... i am due in january so we are thinking that we will most likely be staying in for the first 2 months and we actually had ds in a regular car seat and stroller at 2 months... we spent about an hour at bbb playing wth all the doubles and driving ds nuts by putting him in each one and the city mini seamed the sturdiest...
