What stroller to choose?

Ok ladies, help a girl out!! I have a double snap n go(which I love), but lugging the carseats around is already getting to be a chore. It is getting to be a lot of trouble to go places and have to take them out to feed or change a diaper. I have the Graco Quatro Duo this one and feel like it is soo big and hate that the front seat will not recline. So I am thinking of either purchasing the Baby Trend jogging stroller this one or the Combi Twin Sport stroller this one. I want something that isn't too heavy and that can fit in most doorways, just an overall great stroller.

Any opinions would be greatly appreciated!

TIA

 

I absolutely LOVE my Combi SBS stroller! It is light, compact and easy to maneuver. I have a Graco Duoglider before I got this one, and I hated how huge and cumbersome it was. GL with your decision!

 

I too love my combi twin sport! Very lightweight, easy to throw in and out of my Yukon, the kids like it just fine

If had no plans to do any running/jogging so I didn't need the extra size/weight of a jogger. The combi fits great though all aisles and doorways, as long as it's wheelchair accessible, there's only been a couple places it didn't fit, and those were old buildings with smaller doorways, the jogger wouldn't have fit either.

 

It really depends what you're going to use it for. We have a Mountain Buggy, which is certainly not light, but since we keep it in the garage and rarely put it in the car, it doesn't matter. I just love that it is so easy to push and goes over bumps and rough sidewalks very smoothly. If you do most of your walking outdoors, I would definitely get a jogger.

We also have a double umbrella stroller (Maclaren, but looks a lot like the Combi) that we used for mall trips, the library, doctor's office, and traveling. It is much lighter and folds up smaller, so it's the best choice if you are going to be getting it in & out of the car a lot. I just find it really annoying to push outdoors for any length of time. And the small wheels actually (IMO) make it less maneuverable than the Mountain Buggy, even though it is smaller. But the Combi at least has a handlebar (the Maclaren has two separate handles) so you could push it one-handed -- that's a plus.

This is why many twin moms (or any moms, really) wind up having more than one stroller.

 

I have the Duoglider (and wished I had the Quattro), a jogger, a SBS Jeep (with 3 handles), and thankfully now have a Combi SBS. I :wub: it!! I have used my Duoglider once since I got it (from a wonderful friend) and that was to my Dr's office that is in a very old building. We even took it to Disney instead of our jogger (which we usually use) and it was great b/c it has cupholders/snack trays. With my jogger, there are many doors I can't fit through, but haven't had one issue with the Combi.

 

Go for the Combi SBS :good: Definitely get snack trays.

 

I love Baby Jogger but I have a different, more lightweight version - Baby Jogger City Mini Double (click)

The reason why I love it is because it is super lightweight, only 26 lb. It also has the biggest canopies from all the strollers available and it has quick fold technology.

Graco Quatro Duo weighs 39lb so for me that would be too heavy

Combi Twin Sport weighs 23lb but I personally don't like small plastic wheels and small canopies.

By the way, this is a great website where you can choose options you want and it will suggest strollers.

If you want small and easy to fit thru doorways I'd go with the Jeep sbs. Out only complaint on it was no trays or storage space

 

I have the same Baby Jogger as Kateryna and I love it! Very easy to maneuver with it.

 

I have a valco twin sbs - I LOVE it! It is a heavy stroller tho - but it fits thru all doorways. The new model has 'fixed' the little things I always said would make it even better! www.valcobaby.com

 

It really depends what you want to use it for. Combis are great for walks in the mall etc, but if you want to go on grass or uneven pavement small wheels can be a pain. We didn't want a heavy stroller so we went with the baby jogger city mini double and we love it. It's not perfect as it doesn't have snack trays or a parent console (you have to pay extra for them) but it's a great option if you want something light that can still go on grass etc.
