I love mine. My kids are 20 mos. and 3 years and I imagine I'll be using mine for a little while still. But Sarah loves being in a stroller, she has never fought it. Andy never complains either.

Re: If you have the sit n stand....

LOVE IT!!!! I use it now with all 3 of my kids. Mt little guy goes in the front. My dd (27 months)who hates strollers sits and my oldest (4 1/2) stands when he gets tired of walking! By far it was the BEST thing I ever bought!!!

i liked it for the whole month I had it prior to getting destroyed. DD liked being able to stand as I pushed her. She got a kick out of it.

I'm not a huge fan (I haven't tried to convert to the stand part though) It's heavy and hard to maneuver and I feel so bad that the older one can't see too well. I bought a BOB duallie and LOVE it!


I would ask someone if you could try theirs for a day.

I have it. My boys are 2.5 yrs apart (3 and 7 mos). It suits my needs. I have the Baby Trend one. I mostly use it for the park, walks, etc. I haven't ventured shopping too much alone - when we go to the mall or zoo ro something similar - Dh is usually with us and we take 2 strollers.

How was your older one on the jump seat? I am thinking about getting it but not sure if it would be more of a headache for me.

Re: If you have the sit n stand....

got rid of of my duoglider(after only 9 months) and got this two weeks ago, its the BEST! my DS loves sitting and standing in the jumpseat, it gives him so much more freedom but he is still harnessed in..he is always looking to jump on when i have my DD in the front..

edited to say my DS is 26 months and DD 9 months

Re: If you have the sit n stand....

I am also considering this because Hayley will be 3 when the baby is born and she can not walk everywhere.

Anyone recommend a particular brand? I see Baby Trend makes one and so does Joovey.

I was looking to get this too when the new baby is born.

Baby Trend seems to be cheaper than the Joovey stroller. However, the Baby Trend stroller has the parent tray and the Joovey only has a bar (no parent tray).

I don't know which one handles better though.Chat Icon

Re: If you have the sit n stand....

I'm liking mine a bit more now (my girls are 3 yrs apart. But I still hate that the big basket underneath is practically useless since it's hard to access and my younger girl can't nap comfortably in the front seat. So I don't use it all the time, depending on where we're going. Quick trips to the mall or something is handy.

It's funny, DH laughs at me that I have FIVE strollers in the garage but I'm seriously glad I kept them all becuase we still use them, depending on where we're going and who we're taking with usChat Icon

I am considering the Joovy Caboose UltraLight for when I have 2. It seems to have good reviews and it's pretty light. I like that it comes in all black too


The best, lightest, most maneuverable Caboose yet! The Caboose Ultralight is so compact, maneuverable and lightweight, you might forget that it's a tandem stroller. At a mere 21 pounds, the Caboose Ultralight is 20% lighter in weight than the original model and far lighter than most double strollers. The Ultralight is also ultra-maneuverable because it has sealed ball bearing wheels (if that doesn't mean anything to you; it is faster and smoother. Think rollerblades and skateboards). Moms and Dads will really love the neoprene Cool Essentials Parent Organizer too. It has plenty of room to store your keys, cell phone, etc., and the cup holder will help keep your drinks cool. The deluxe sun canopy will offer more protection for your children on sunny days out. Your life, our strollers. The new arrival has made a good thing even better!

I have the BabyTrend Sit and Stand and I LOVE it. My girls are 3yrs and 7 months and it is perfect for us. My older one loves to sit or stand in the back and it gives her more freedom. I also find it easy to manauver and put in the trunk.

The only drawback is the sun visor is kinda skimpy and front seat doesnt recline much making it hard for napping. But even with these limitations I woudnt trade it at all.
