    I have the Graco DuoRider and I'm thinking of returning it since it doesn't have a tray for the kids. I looked at the Peg Perego Twin Aria today and liked it a lot until I read reviews online saying the basket underneath drags on the ground and rips. I also like the Combi Twin Savvy EX but the baskets are way too small. Help! Which stoller should I get??

    I have a MacLaren Rally which I like. I had a Combi before but sold it on Craigslist. I wasn't impressed with the quality at all (and I need something sturdy for airplane travel so umbrella style suits my needs better). I plan to get a Mountain Buggy as soon as the weather gets better (and it's horrible right now here in Chicago). I plan to keep the Rally for the car and travelling (which we do a lot) and the Mountain Buggy for neighborhood strolls.

    I have the Aria also and I love it. The basket does drag but I haven't found anything better.

    I have the Combi Twin Savvy - and the baskets are only small if you try to stuff a huge diaper bag in them - I separate all of my items into large ziploc baggies and I have more than enough room for: two changes of clothes, two jackets, 6 diapers + wipes, diaper pad, changing pad, four bottles + formula, solid food, my purse, my jacket, assorted toys, two large heavy blankets...

    It's a great stroller

    I have the Aria also, and I really like it. I haven't had any problems with the basket, but I have a Skip Hop diaper bag that snaps onto the handles, so that may be why. I ended up taking the sun shades/canopies off though. They never seemed to help with the sun (always sunny here in FL), so I figured hats would be better. But it is really lightweight (lighter than the single Peg Perego stroller I have for singleton) and it folds and unfolds in a snap. Good Luck!!!!

    We have the Peg Perego Aria and I love it. The basket does not hold much, but I have a backpack diaper bag so it is not an issue for us. What I came to realize is there is no perfect stroller out there. So for me being able to manuever and lift a light stroller was most important and I was willing to give up storage space. And really at 14lb... you can't find a much lighter stroller than the Aria.

    Good luck.

    I just bought a Chicco comfort travel twin stroller about a week ago, and so far I think it's way better than the Graco DuoGlider. But I've only had it for a week so I can't say much else about it!

    I LOVEour Mountain Buggy, but if you are into compactness as a major factor, then it is probably not for you. It is like the difference between an Aerostar and an Escalade.

    I have the Combi Twin Savvy and what I like best about it is that it folds up small enough to fit in my trunk being that I have a small car. The only thing I did not like about it was the basket space on the bottom is quite small. I ended up buying a baby diaper bag from walmart that you can latch on to the stroller at the top, so the bag is hanging. It turned out to work out fine for me. My cousin also turned me on to the hook that hangs from the stroller, that also helps.

    I have the Peg Perego Aria and we love it. the backet does rub, but it has not ripped. I read the same reviews, but am really glad that we bought it. [​IMG]

    Ditto this!

    I also have a Maclaren Twin Traveller. I didn't like it when the girls were small (under 6 months) because they didn't seem comfy and I couldn't access the baskets when the seats were reclined. I like it better now. However, it still bugs me that it has two widely-spaced handles (rather than a handlebar) and it's very hard to steer with one hand. It's also much better on smooth surfaces (i.e., the mall) than on sidewalks. It does fold easily though, and gets pretty small.
