    I purchased the Combi Twin Sport in summer of 2011.

    Pros-
    I much preferred the side-by-side configuration of the Twin Sport to my previous tandem strollers for taking our girls to events. We often go to festivals and outdoor markets- the SBS allowed both girls a wide-angled view of the world.
    It steers exceptionally well.
    Both seats recline fully so that the girls can nap while on the go.
    It folded up incredibly easily.
    It was not *as heavy* as other strollers (though still not light).

    Cons-
    The year that I purchased, there was no parent cup holder. This was a big disadvantage for me (see festivals above, nowhere to put my beverage!). I'm not sure if the parent cup holders are included now.
    It does not fit through the front doors at my Target. I have to prop open the cart return door and back in.
    We do not fit down most retail aisles in this stroller. We stopped using it for shopping trips after a few trials.
    The umbrella canopies were flimsy and do not provide much shade coverage.

    Overall impression-
    Despite the cons of this stroller, I really liked it. It was awesome for taking our girls about town and to events. I loved being able to fold it up quickly and easily. I've heard that they sell attachments for carriers, but I think that would make the Twin Sport even more cumbersome in width, so I wouldn't recommend it for that purpose.

    I bought the combi twin sport as our "go to" stroller soon after my twins were born in 2009. It was fantastic!

    My pro's/con's are exactly like Stephanie's. Except I had no trouble with it fitting in my target ;) Any wheel chair accessible doorway was big enough, the only door I had trouble in was our dentist's office doorways. But the office is built in a very old building, and all the doorways are a smaller size.

    I also had issues when my twins got bigger (around 20lbs each), and I had to push it through the dirt and over tree roots and huge pine cones to the baseball field for my older kids. This is when I decided to upgrade to a different (more all terrain) stroller.
