Re: Talk to me about the Chico Cortina Together stroller

We have it and love it! It's awesome that the infant seat can go in the front or back, and both seats fully recline, depending on where the infant seat is. Plus the canopies are nice and big.

It's very easy to open and close and it handles very well, I think. The only con that I can think of is that it is so heavy - 34 lbs without the seat. It's a b!tch to get in and out of the trunk, I think it would be easier if I had an SUV or a minivan.

I bought it, and returned it. It is really big and heavy IMO. I felt like I was steering a bus. I wound up getting the Combi Twin Sport, and really like it. I liked that I could have the baby reclined and my 2 yo could sit up.

Thanks for the feedback. I know that the front to backs will be heavy but I was interested in this one b/c they said it's lighter than the competitors (aka Graco I guess).

You should go to BBB or BRU and wheel it around, and practice folding it and lifting it. I didn't do that, and I regretted it! Chat Icon

we will, we definitely will but I wanted to narrow down the field first since with 2 little ones I won't have hours to spend exploring strollers this time around.
