Re: Joovy X2 double stroller..anyone have this?
I have one & like it a lot.
It's the width of a wheelchair, so fits through all doors & uses all that width for seating, so good for broad shoulders. DS did not fit in Mcclarens at 2!
It's cheap, so I never locked it up. Was ok taking it to zoo & deserting it.
I have it in green & it looks cool. Not a common stroller & people often had bought it in trade shows.
DD and DS loved it!!!
It sits straight up.
Fold flat to fit in trunk
Negs:
Heavy
Awkward (but easy) fold
No infant seat adaptor
I'd get it again.

Re: Joovy X2 double stroller..anyone have this?
i don't have it but I was seriously considered buying what stopped me from doing it was the sun shade. I didn't like that both sides go down at one time and I couldn't do one side if I wanted. I could just envision the complaining from my older one they didn't want it down  also I am so use to the way the city min shade goes all the way down and I hated the thought of not having it. So I ended up with the britax double stroller I got it for $300 off amazon

Re: Joovy X2 double stroller..anyone have this?
I have the Joovy x2 and the Britax B-ready. So a lot of my notes are really comparing it to the heavy duty b ready. Its light, super easy to fold and open, fits through most doorways ok (although the britax is better because they are seated front and back not side to side). My kids also love being next to each other and that's a lot of fun for them (4 and 18 months).
eta- I read the comments before mine and the shade comment is valid- its not the fact that it has to be the same on both sides thats annoying- rather that its not really a full coverage- but its better than my umbrella stroller for sure

Perfect. I have the britax b-ready also. You're the perfect person to ask. Do I need both? I know they're diff and both have pros and cons. I think in the beginning the britax will be great to use with the infant car seat but when the baby is bigger the side by side will be great

I like having both and I use them for very different things- I keep the b-ready in my car and the joovy in my apartment entry way since it folds so flat and neatly. I think my kids prefer the joovy because they are next to each other but in my situation, I need both. if you are fine taking it in and out of the car, one of them is great.

Re: Joovy X2 double stroller..anyone have this?
I had it and loved it! Seats recline individually, the canopy is HUGE, it steers very easily and the width was perfect for doorways. My kids loved it, it seemed very comfy. I liked the brake bar too - I would occasionally kick it but I don't have a long stride so it wasn't bad. DH is tall and it was comfortable for him to push. We gave it up when the kids got too heavy.
ETA: It folds almost completely flat which was awesome and I didn't find it to be heavy at all. One hand open and close too!

Re: Joovy X2 double stroller..anyone have this?
Thank you all! I pulled the trigger and bought it. Got such a good deal so I don't feel as bad having two double strollers. Besides, they're totally diff.
Zulily has it for $185! Can't beat that.
