if you have a city select stroller come in

I have a 20 month old and am expecting DD #2 in less than a month.
My husband was really against the side by side double strollers so we went with the city select. I just bought it, but haven't put it together yet. Just a couple of questions:
1) did you find it hard to steer when going around corners. I put my 20 month in it in the store and it was a little hard to steer, but they said it could have been since the weight wasn't distributed evenly and once baby #2 is in it will be better.
2) They said you can only recline the seats if they are both facing you? is this true? If so, if you have an older DC is this a problem? My older DD is not a napper in the stroller anymore, unless we are out an entire day and she will just fall asleep sitting up, but I want to be able to recline DD#2 once she is older and in the stroller and not in the infant seat. I don't want to have to face my older DD towards me though so that the younger one can be reclined. Does that make sense?

TIA for any thoughts on this stroller!

I have it and hear you on all points!

Yes, it is difficult to steer due to the weight distribution thing....DD #1 is almost 3 & 1/2 and DD#2 is almost 7 months.....it is starting to get a little better now that the baby is half my older DD's weight.

Seat positiong - yes, I am a little disappointed with that for all the money I spent on this stroller. That being said - my 3yr old DD doesn't really mind facing me in the stroller. She willl sometimes turn around so she can face forward. You can face the front seat forward and the rear seat towrds you and still recline it a little, it's just not ideal, but it does work. Play with the seats a little.

I found it steers better around corners when you unlock the wheels. Couldn't believe the difference!
