Joovy X2 Double Stroller?

I will be going to check strollers out in person soon but I'm doing some homework ahead of time. Can anyone tell me if you can attach Graco Snugride infant seat to this stroller? None of the pics I've seen (so far) show any type of infant seat on the stroller.

Also, I see it has the belly bar but are you able to also put a tray/cup holder attachment on?

If you have this stroller, how do you like it? Any pros/cons would be appreciated! Chat Icon

I checked it out at BBB. Its great but you can't use a car seat adaptor, which was a deal breaker for me. I'm going with the city mini double.

Thank you, very helpful! I am leaning towards the city mini double but I keep coming back to the AWFUL basket. I have the citi mini single now and I just hate hate hate the basket. If they would fix that (I still don't get why they haven't yet!) it would be near perfect!Chat Icon

No cup holder. No car seat attachment.

I love the stroller. My kids both fit comfortably, it has fit through all the doors I needed it to. I have the lime green color which is cool... But does get dirty.

It does fit and strap both kids better than any other stroller.

Oh....and the price is great!

ETA: the basket is really awesome. You can put an overstuffed diaper bag and still groceries in it.

My advice: stick both kids next to each other when the time comes in the stroller. Mine loved the Joovy.

ITA. I use my maclaren most of the time for DD, and am so used to having hardly any basket, so I'm going to deal with it. DD is 2.5 and I'm 7 months preggo. I took her with me to BBB and she was most comfortable with the city mini double. The guys there were great and hooked the car seat up to just about every stroller, and we put elmo in the car seat and DD in the other seat with just about every stroller and she was happiest in the city mini double. I highly recommend doing this because every kid is different. We went to the one in huntington on a weekday afternoon and it was not crowded and we got a lot of help. I'm going with the one she likes best because I think it will make my life easiest. Plus I found it really easy to manuever - I took it around the store for a long time and it fit through aisles and stuff. Its only 4" wider than the city elite, which DD hated in every configuration Chat Icon

They DID fix the basket on the double Chat Icon

i was just at BBB comparing the Joovy and Citi Mini last week......

Joovy - amazing price. Large basket. Does not take infant seats. Does not push as well as the citi mini, but still moves well. Folds easily. My daughter seemed comfortable in it. comes with all the accessories.

CitiMini - they do not have the new redesigned double in the store yet, not until Sept. But they re did the basket! you can look at the new single they have and its the same redesign. The new model came to over $500 when we added an infant seat adapter and belly bar Chat Icon forget it if you want to add a couple more things. The price was the ONLY thing that turned me off. I refuse to spend over $300 on the older model bc of the basket and there is no lock once you fold the stroller either, the new model coming out has that as well.
