Another stroller post

Ok I searched thru the previous posts on SBS strollers and finally have narrowed my decision down to these two
The baby jogger city series double http://babyjogger.com/citydouble.htm
OR
the Dreamer Designs http://www.dreamerdesign.net/d_man_dlx.cfm

any imput from owners of either of these strollers to help me out making my final choice?

 

I did a lot of research on joggers. I am very happy with my baby jogger city series. The only neg. is that it is heavy but I think all joggers are. It was comparable to the mountain buggy but lighter and took up a little less room in the trunk. I did end up buying a light sbs because I got sick of taking the jogger out for all errands. My dh though insists on always using the jogger. You can stear it with one finger. The sun shades are great. Let me know if you have specific questions.

 

We have the Dreamer Design. My only complaint is that my girls are taller than most kids their age and are almost too tall our Dreamer Design. We got it as a gift, so I'm not complaining we got 2 great years out of it. I love it, it has great storage, the sun shade is awesome too. We also have a combi twin savy that we use.

 

We have the baby jogger & love it. A friend of mine has it also & has no complaints.

 

I have a dreamer that is like 3 years old - and I LOVE it. It is the only jogger I can get in my minivan, very light, wonderful sunshade, narrow enough to go through doorways, and I love that the safety belts don't let the kids slouch down if you don't want them too.

I LOVE IT!

 

Love the BJCSD No problem going through any doors, mall aisles, restaurants, etc. Sters like a dream.


Only negative for me is small basket. Afet being spoiled w/ SNGO big basket taht was relatively easy to get to I am diappointerd that jogger basket is so amall and inaccessible. The comp. is working on a parent console for the double. I miss the full tray thingy from the snapNgo ssssoooo much. But I don't miss the nicks on my shins from hitting the SNGO after it hits a crack in the sidewalk.

All in all I love the BJSCD and hope taht i'll rethink the diaper bags I now pack. I am leaning toward the skip hop duo. At first I thought it was jsut a lot of hype. But now I think it is actually going to be good with the jogger. happy shopping.

 

I just brought the baby jogger city series double.. I LOVE it! It folds so easy, its pretty compact and steers like a dream. You can't ask for a better stroller!

 

I have a dreamer designs and I LOVE it! It's not the model you are looking at, which looks even better than mine, because mine is 3 years old, AND it was bought model close out on ebay so it's the model from 4 years ago. (the seatbelt straps on the new one look way better!)
It's SOOO light and turns on a dime. This is how light it is, be have a VW beetle (one of the old ones, not a new one) and it won't fit in the trunk, so we put a luggage rack on top and I (at only 5'4") have no problem swinging it up onto the roof. In three years I've only met one door I couldn't go through and I use it off road all the time it goes through the bush and it easy to push! My only complaint it that maybe it is almost TOO perfectly balanced and light weight. In the girls first year I would take them to the farmers market in it and do our weekly fruit and veggie shopping. I'd fill the bottom basket, so if I tried to hang anything heavier than bread off the handle it would tip. Now that the girls weigh a lot more that's not a problem, but now I usually make them walk in the market.
I also love the sun shade and we are fairskinned in the tropics so that's saying a lot. IT also came with a rain cover which we've used a few times when caught out in the rain, it kept them perfectly dry.
