    We currently have a valco (with toddler seat) and I have to say my babes don't really like it. :( We use it but since they don't like it they have to constantly be moving in it. One seat seems to be the cranky seat too, ugh I dunno. Anyway I am thinking that in the valco they don't necessarily sit quite perfectly straight up as opposed to how they would in like teh graco travel system stroller know what I mean? They are still somewhat reclined at the highest setting and I think it MIGHT make a difference if we had a stroller where they could sit upright and had a bar to grab on to. Oh yeah and I would prefer a side by side to make things difficult haha.

    I have seen the combi twin sport online but am unsure if the seats go fully upright or still sit back a bit. Also I can't seem to find anywhere that has it in Canada right now, it looks like their new model just came out so maybe I just have to wait I dunno.

    I have also seen the Zooper Tango online and it looks great but haven;t heard anything about it.

    Sooooo any answers about the 2 strollers above or any recommendations based on what we want for the seats? Thanks so much!!!

    We have the Maclaren twin techno, and though there is no bar to hold on to the seats at the highest setting are STRAIGHT up. So much so that I always recline at least one click back for my 8 month olds so that they don't look uncomfortable lol. Your kids might just love it. Pricier option than most "umbrella" strollers, but it's a great great stroller and the quality is hard to beat.

    Also the Maclaren twin triumph might have the same seat inclines and it's a bit cheaper.

    I was also going to recommend the maclaran, I have the twin triumph for my car stroller, and the city classic jogger stroller, while the maclaren sits up, the baby that doesnt like being buckled down in the jogger, doesnt like the maclaren any better.

    Oh no! I was hoping that wouldn't be the case but I bet knowing my luck it would be. :( It does seem to be that one seat is the cranky seat but I have fully reclined it and sat it back up etc and still it seems like they think its uncomfortable no matter what.

    I have the same problem! I was just looking online for the too. Mine hate my Baby Jogger City Mini because tge seats don't go FULLY upright and are always a bit reclined. They try to sit ip all the time and get very frustrated.

    I tried my friends single stroller that is upright and both of my kids love it and don't make a beep while riding it. I will keep on looking.

    Ok so I found Graco IPO Twin Stroller at Sears.ca. I am in Toronto (Richmond Hill) and I will probably check it out in store first.

    HERE is the link

    I also checked out Zooper Tango that you mentioned and I like it too but where to buy it here in Canada?

    thanks for the link! I actually owned a single IPO last year and even at 5 ft 1 everytime I took a step I would kick the wheels so I sold it. They might have fixed that height issue by now though?

    I really wish I could find a combi twin sport but most places are out of it right now, weird.

    I found TJ's kids has the zooper and when I just looked they have the twin IPO and its on sale now too! I also think toys r us may carry it too.

    I would totally buy the zooper right now from TJ's if I had 2 girls because their all pink model is only $199 but with a boy, ehhhh not sure I should haha.

    A place called CSN stores seems to ship to Canada too and carry the combi but not in the color I want. I wish I lived somewhere big enough that I could see all these strollers in person!
