double stroller question!?

Question

i am 7 months pregnant with baby # 2 and when he/she is born our first daughter will be 12 months and so we will need a double stroller. so i need advice on one that would fit in the back of our cars (my husband has a 98 dodge neon and i have a 04 pt cruiser, both that lack in trunk space) price is not so much the issue as long as its around $200 or less . any advice on a double stroller that folds up nice and compact?

Answer 1

We have the Jeep double stroller, got it from Walmart.com (site to store) and I think they have it at babiesrus. It fits perfectly our Corolla. It is side by side, but I have never had a problem in stores with it. Also, the seats recline a bit if they fall asleep, has a cup holder and saddle bags on the side. It's lightweight and less than 80 bucks.

Answer 2

I have the Graco Duo Lite Plus and it fits in my trunk I have a 2005 PT Cruiser. It isn't compact but does fit in the trunk. I have the Touring Edition I am not sure if that affects the trunk space or not. Good Luck!

Answer 3

I have twins and went with the stroller side by side. It worked out great for us because the twins could see and interact with each other. It was made by Graco and it was an easy fit for trunks. Before you buy it go to the store and try some out so to speak to see which one your comfortable with. That might help in your decision. Good Luck

Answer 4

Its really hard to find double strollers that fit in trunks. I have twins and I have many double strollers and the best one that would fit you car would be the Jeep double stroller. I only paid 75 buck for it a babies r us. I love it!

Answer 5

The only advice I got is to get one that has the two seats one in front one in back NOT the one with the seats side by side they might look cuter but you can fit through no ailes in any store! Its hell! I agree with the first answer about the stroller with the toddler seat then a baby seat those are cute and compact!

Good Luck!

decide for the entire sized double, the double umbrella strollers are a discomfort to circulate. additionally.. decide for a "tandem" form, quite than area via area. They in advantageous condition extra effective interior the aisles of shops. you additionally can evaluate a sling and a single stroller, carrying one or the different of the youngsters, and don't decrease than estimate the fee of a youngster leash! Your older baby would be walking all too quickly, and those infants vanish in an eyeblink, especially in case you're taking good care of a youthful sibling!

Here's a link to the one that we just got http://www.amazon.com/InStep-Safari-Swivel-Double-Stroller/dp/B000IORPYW/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1/002-3892462-3569664?ie=UTF8&s=sporting-goods&qid=1180674080&sr=8-1 I drive a Corolla and it fits in the trunk. I could get it in with the rear tires on with a lot of manuevering, but I opt to just pop off the back tires (honestly, very very easy) and then it fits very easily. Both seats are independently fully reclinable. Cost was $170 with free shipping and it arrived in about 5 days. Front tire has optional lock or swivel. And the drink holder allows for an ice pack to be put in the bottom. I also got a kiddopotomus sun shade http://www.amazon.com/Kiddopotamus-Rayshade%C2%AE-Protective-Protection-Strollers/dp/B000DZZC5A/ref=pd_sim_sg_1/002-3892462-3569664?ie=UTF8&qid=1180674080&sr=8-1 (can't comment on it because it just got shipped today) and I plan to get strollometer http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_ss_sg/002-3892462-3569664?url=search-alias%3Dsporting&field-keywords=strollometer&Go.x=0&Go.y=0&Go=Go Good luck in choosing, but I really like mine (walk 4 miles a few days a week, and 1-2 miles the other days).

Answer 8

if you have trouble with a double stroller and size, you might want to consider a stroller that comes with a toddler seat. The older child feels big and tough sitting up on a big girls seat and they take up less space.
