New Stroller on the Market

Well, it's new to me and I haven't heard it mentioned on here yet. It's totally cool and it's just what I needed. It's called a Joovy Caboose. It's a double stroller that fits universal baby seats (like the baby trend snap and go) but it's also a toddler stroller!! PLUS what I really wanted, it has a rear platform for your toddler to sit or stand on!

Here's a link to the web page.

We have one store in town that is carrying them. Next we just have to swing by and try to put it into the back of our minivan. We also have a side-by-side jog stroller for later but I think this will fit the bill for me expecting twins and having a 2 1/2 yr old that does not listen very well. I was freaking out about how to ever take the whole herd out.

Hope it helps some others. I was told it was made by the same guy who designed the snap and go stuff and the ride along on the backs but he left the baby trend company.

That looks petty cool.

 

Very neat! Thanks so much for sharing! I just wish it weren't quite so expensive.

 

It looks like a great stroller, my only concern is the size. I don't think that it will fit in my minivan when folded with a depth of 63'. I am glad that you posted this info, my curiosity is peeked!

 

I have seen a lot of posts on strollers and never seen this one come up! Thanks for sharing!!

 

In a few weeks I'll let you know if it fits into our minivan (Honda). We are should be getting it soon (long story about a "deal" with the dealer).

I'm also a little surprised about the price but this is the one thing so far we are splurging on. We already had so much of the things you need for babies. Plus, with a 2 and 1/2 yr old I think it'll save me alot of headache and him getting dragged along on a baby leash. He just can not be trusted!!!

I'm planning on going to our area Mothers of Multiples group this week. I'll ask if anyone has one and likes it.

Thanks for sharing this info. My DD will be turning 3 when the twins are born so I was looking for a stroller just like this but maybe a little lighter. I will definitely consider buying it since I just got a new mini van and it should fit in the back w/ the third row folded down. I will have to find a store near me who carries it.

Thanks again,

Let us know how it works. My 4 yr old son keeps saying he wants a triple stroller for him....I keep telling him he is too old for one of the small seats....in addition to being even longer than a double stroller. When I found out I was pg, I was going to buy the one like this with one baby seat, I think a Baby Trend. But when I found out it was twins, there went that idea.

I have also seen the thing they can stand on that you can hook on to the back of the stroller. Anyone tried this?

 

it looks really interesting, but i'm worried about the length and turning it, etc. besides- we're going to have three in our van come summer so i don't think i can keep the third row folded down....
but it IS interesting. still thinking about it...

 

Thanks for sharing!! We've been debating what to do about strollers.. DS's 1st birthday is in two weeks, and I could deliver any day now if something goes wrong with baby b, so I don't think he can use this one just yet, but maybe within a year it will be good for all three of them. I bookmarked it!

 

Loooove it! But I cannot justify the expense now. I sure wish it was out sooner!

 

I just saw this on Joovy's site, and it does look interesting!! It might be perfect for our situation, as my DD will be 3.5 when the babies come. I was planning to get the double Snap n Go for the first 6 months, but this might work even better. (I do worry about the size, though. I wonder if it will be as hard to push as those huge car carts at the grocery store.)

My plan for later is to get an Inglesina Twin Swift, and attach a Litaf Pick-Up seat on the back. I'm thinking it would be impossible to walk with it attached to a single stroller, but with a double, you could just walk next to it....particularly with the Inglesina, as it has three handles...

Thanks for posting this! I'm going to see if a local store has it, so I can see how hard it is to push.

 

Okay - where was this cool stroller when I was buying one? That is fabulous and much cheaper than the Valco!!
