BOB Duallie or City Mini double?

Which double stroller would you get for once the twins are out of their infant seats?

We have a single Bob and love it. I used it for running with Logan and for tons of trips to the zoo, etc. For him, we had just the Chicco travel system as the main stroller.

Now, we just bought a double for when the babies are in the infant seats (Thanks Danica!Chat Icon Chat Icon) but need another that's more versatile for when they outgrow that.

BOB because we can also use it for running if we want/need to? Does it have a board that can attach for Logan to stand on too?

City Mini because it's super light and easy to fold?

THANKS!

Re: BOB Duallie or City Mini double?

For me I got the BOB double as my "house" stroller. We live in a very walking friendly neighborhood, not suburbia. DD goes for walks daily with the nanny to the parks and local village shops etc... and I run frequenly with her in it, so need the true jogger double for when #2 arrives.

I also like to have a "car" stroller that stays in the car for mall trips, errands etc. I currently have a Maclaren which I love but it won't accomodate the infant seat. So I purchased the Baby Jogger City select. I was between the citi mini and this and decided the tandem and multiple seat configurations would work better for us.

Not sure if that helps, but I feel like am in a similar position.

Re: BOB Duallie or City Mini double?

I looked at both and picked the BOB--mainly bc I wanted the option to run. I also liked the car seat adapter better, but that isn't an issue for you. It is big, but I have never had a problem getting thru doors, etc. I don't think you can attach a board as the brake is on the back--the city mini double has the same issue I believe. I have 3 DS now and if my oldest really needs a rest he has sat on the foot rest part of the double BOB. I also liked that the seats seemed a bit bigger so they would be comfortable longer--my almost 4.5 year old is still comfortable in the seat of the BOB.

Same here. I will probably get something inexpensive and lightweight to keep in the car for trips to the mall, etc.
