    Does anyone have a Phil and Teds stroller and if so--would you recommend it? Dh and I are thinking of getting one. Thanks.

    We love our Phil and Ted's E3 Twin stroller! It's such a smooth ride and can handle all sorts of weather (I'm in Canada!) and it allows for a full recline to flat for naps, etc. AND it's easy to assemble and fold. It's heavy -- but what twin strollers aren't??

    Thanks for the response. Does the twin in the back feel jipped for having a view of the front seat? We are pretty sold on this stroller and can't wait to graduate from our infant travel system.

    I have the e3twin (its side by side). I'm lukewarm about it. It's so heavy and so big but the storage is mediocre. And I can fit it in my trunk but that's it, nothing else. It is a very smooth ride though. Oh ya, I've had two of the grommets come out but they were very good about sending me replacement parts.

    I kind of hate it actually but I don't know if anything else would be better. I've heard great things about the combi twin savvy.

    Ours is side by side. I think the only thing i would change is having a bottle holder!!!!

    My understanding is that this stroller isn't stable for babies of the same weight. It is designed for the heavier child to be in the main seat and the lighter in the underneath. Phil and Ted's are really popular here and I have heard that they are unstable. I don't have one myself however as we went the mountain buggy route. That's big and heavy as well!

    OK guys I have the Phil and Teds sport. Its the top and bottom one. Now seriously I can't imagine my life without it!! I tell people its my favorite twin accessory. First off, its the same size as a reg single stroller. It is so easy to maneuver. Now, it doesn't say you can do this, but I can put both the car seats in there. You just put the handle down on the seat and slide it in the bottom seat and set the other seat on the top seat. Its so amazing. The bunk bed of strollers. I would HIGHLY recommend this stroller to any mom with twins. I didn't go for the E3 twin one because I just thought the sport looked so much more efficient, and I am really glad I did it that way because its the best purchase I have made with them yet.

    I have been searching and searching for a double baby jogger and have read every review known to man...haha
    So if you are getting this stroller for your twins, I have read that's not a good idea. It is not built for twins but more for a toddler and infant....

    Price wise the best jogger I have found is the Instep Free Wheeler 2....they are on sale right now on mystroller.com for $259, free shipping! That's what I am getting :)

    But if you are able to fork out a little more dough I would go with the Bob Revolution Duallie or the Baby Jogger City Series.

    Those seem to have the best reviews all around :)
