Baby Trend Sit N Stand Double Stroller - Lightweight Carbon Frame for Twins & Siblings | Perfect for Shopping, Travel & Everyday Use

At this point, I feel like our family has become a group of stroller connoisseurs. This is the third stroller we have purchased in the last two years, our second double stroller. We have two kids under 3. We love our side-by-side jogging stroller (we own the B.O.B Revolution Dualie), but it was a nightmare for using indoors. It barely squeezes through door frames and can't typically make it through clothing racks or down aisles if we attempt to take it to the mall or other such shopping area. The Baby Trend Sit N Stand was the complete answer to solve this problem.Pros: This stroller is easy to fold and unfold...keeping me from looking like a complete disaster when I'm trying to wrangle it and two toddlers out in public. It is relatively lightweight and isn't too much of a burden for me to lift up into the back of our pickup truck or maneuver in and out of our garage. It folds up fairly flat and is easy to store, not taking up a ton of room. The design works great for getting around indoors. It isn't too wide, though it is admittedly a little longer than if you were dealing with a single seater. The kids both have comfortable seating with good seatbelts (though my 2 1/2 year old does manage to wiggle his way out of the arm straps in the 5-point harness). We place the littler one in the back and the bigger one in the front to minimize seat kicking, but they can fit in either configuration (the 2 1/2 year old is about 40 lb). The storage compartment works well and we can fit the diaper bag (we use a toddler backpack) on via the back step of the stroller without worrying about it falling out. There are cup holders for both kids along with snack trays and a cup holder area at the handlebars with a small compartment that I use to hold keys or an errant pacifier. We haven't yet used the standing option, but I have seen it used by others who have this same model in our area and it looks pretty user friendly. The materials are sturdy and we haven't noticed too much wear and tear on this stroller regardless of the beating it takes from being transported in the rear of our pickup and the rough handling of our two kids. The fabric has stayed bright in color (we have the optic red) and has wiped up easily from any spills we've had happen.Cons: It is a little more difficult to maneuver when compared to our BOB. The weight distribution just makes it a little stiffer and more difficult to turn, but this is to be expected with the change in design and I don't think that any other brand would really be any better. I don't like using this for outdoor events, simply because I feel like the kiddo in the back misses out a little bit. We took it to the aquarium and it seemed like he lost out a bit on visibility of the displays. I would definitely opt for our BOB for those type of occasions if possible.Overall, we use this stroller and the BOB interchangeably and probably fairly equally depending on what we have planned. It's simply a matter of weighing out the pros and cons for each particular location. Each one certainly has it's benefits and potential downfalls. I am incredibly happy with this purchase and glad that we have the option of the Sit N Stand. It has made my life much easier for indoor excursions.Para mis dos bebes, pero es un poco pesado para mi y no está bien calibrado por que se va para un lado, no va derechoMy daughter loves this as it was easy to set up. Both girlsFor in perfect. The stroller is easy to maneuver in stores etc. would purchase againSiWe bought this because we recently had a newborn and a toddler, plus our infant car seat is the same brand. It's easy to fold, and lightweight and our kids love it. When both my kids are in it, it can be hard to turn and the wheels don't handle bumps very well. The price is great, but I think the wheels might start wearing out quickly as we use it for strolls in our neighborhood about 3-4 times a week.I really like this stroller a lot. It's extremely easy to open and close. But there is a slight learning curve. It is able to stand upright when folded, making it take up less room if you bring it indoors. When folded up it is only slightly longer than a standard stroller. Like 1 or 2 inches as most. I have absolutely no problems with stowing it in my vehicle. I saw many complaints about that and I wonder if those moms used "light" or travel strollers in the past because this really was just about the same as the standard chicco and graco strollers I've used with my other kids.Yes it's heavy, but the thing has to support 2 children. And when you put the weight of children in the thing, it will make it heavier. But that's going to happen with any stroller. There isn't a product out there that is going to defy the laws of physics for your convenience. So don't let those reviews dissuade you. Also, this stroller has a higher weight load capacity. Meaning you can use it for a longer period of time!Yes the basket is small, but so is every other double stroller. Strollers are not meant to be used in lieu of a shopping cart. Don't let this dissuade you either.I've used the stroller for light shopping trips, we went pumpkin picking, walking over grassy paths in the park and longs walks around the neighborhood and I've had no issues.I almost went with the joovy double but this cost considerably less and I didn't have to buy a cup holder for me or a second seat for the stand/sit chair. It's only a few pounds heavier than the joovy but has more leg room for your child and the back seat doesn't push the kids legs into the basket. It has a foot rest above the basket.It has special handles to lift it, which is nice. You don't have to worry about breaking a tray. I also liked the little handles on the sides of the front seat. If you have to open a store door by yourself, you can pull the stroller through the door easily with the handles rather than having to do that awkward butt/door prop move all moms know about.My only issue is with the trays. There are big buttons on the ends that intuitively seem like they should lift the tray up for loading/unloading your child but that's not what they do. They flip the tray from horizontal to vertical so you can use a car seat. To lift the tray you have to reach under the tray and push back a hard to reach lever. I think the buttons and the levers should be reversed. You need to lift the tray every time you put in a kid who is not in a car seat whereas flipping the tray position you'll do only a couple of times over the course of using the stoller. But this is a minor matter when considered against the other points.One last thing. Supposedly there are cup holder accessories that can be purchased. They swap out the trays for two cups when your child is older. I haven't been able to find them anywhere. Not even on the baby trend website. When I sent an email to customer service, the reply was unhelpful. So I question their existence.
