    I am registering for a stroller for my first babies - boy/girl twins.
    So far when I ask around, the Peg Perego and the Graco Duoglider seem to get the most positive remarks.
    There is a big price difference between the 2. I like that you can turn both infants seats to face front/front, back/back or to face each other, so I'm thinking of going with the Perego, despite the high cost.
    Any thoughts?

    I had the Graco Duoglider and it was OK when I used the infant seats. It was big and heavy. Once my girls turned 1 and they no longer liked to sit back to back. The one in the back would pull her sisters hair and kick the chair. It was just so big to lift.

    I have the side by side peg pergo now and I love it - the girls are more comfortable in it and it is easy to fold and lightweight.

    sorry, not much help.

    We ended up getting the duoglider, but haven't had a chance to use it yet. I will say that it is big and bulky, but it hasn't been hard for me to fold or unfold. It did take us a little bit to figure out how the infant seats snapped in, but that was mostly because we didn't read the directions! :D For us the price made a big difference. I do plan on getting a much smaller side-by-side once they are older.

    Don't know if I'm much help though!

    :D Don't know much about the other one...but what I liked about the duo glider is that I could use the infant car seats in either chair..and both chairs also reclined. After they got past 6 months I switched them to a side-by-side simple umbrella stroller. I liked the simple umbrella just b/c the duoglider is so stinking heavy....but, honestly, those two strollers worked just fine....we weren't out every single day...but I'm glad I didn't spend too much money...b/c now they walk! :D That time goes so quickly... If I had the money I might spring for something really nice...but in hindsight, I really didn't want to spend the money, and the added convenience might not have been worth it for such a relatively short time...scary but these 2.5 years have just gone by so quickly!

    Loved the Duoglider when the babies were in there infant seats. now that they are bigger i Love my Peg prego side by side. We got it used so saved a bit on the price. One of those things that you just have to change with what the babies need. Good Luck!

    I have the duoglider.. and i like it.. Its hard to fit both infant seats sometimes and ITS HUGE!! If you have a small car, I do not recremend,.. I really want to get a side by side so that i can take them on walks with out the infant seats.. The front seat on the duoglider doesnt recline very far.. Made for a toddler and an infant..

    We got the Duo Glider, we haven't used it yet...but I took a poll at Babies R' Us....I went around to the twin Mom's shopping with their babies! I asked them how they liked it....how long they have used it...and anything else I could think of!! LOL


    Good luck with whatever choice you make

    We have the duoglider and use it all the time. It was great when they were in the carriers and you could just snap them in and go. And even now, it still works great. I love that I can get in/out of doorways easily and through aisles with ease. A SBS stroller would not allow me to walk my oldest DD into school everyday, so that really isn't an option. Yes, it is a bit bulky, but it is a double stroller and that should be expected. Honestly I am so used to getting it in/out of my van I don't even notice how heavy it is. It works great for us.

    From what I understand, the Peg Perego folds up in several pieces. The seat bases have to removed off the chassis before the chassis can be folded. I too was looking at the Peg b/c of the manuveurability of the seats and such, but when I realized that it didn't fold as one unit, I decided against it. But that's just my opinion - I know some moms from my local MoM club that have one and love it.
