Double Stroller Recommedations! :)

I would go with a Sit and Stand. When my kids were three they did not spend much time sitting in a stroller, except towards the end of a long walk, then they would have been tired enough to sit on the bench. It isn't as big and bulky as a double stroller, but all you'll need for a three year old to hitch a ride.

I don't run (unless zombies are chasing me) but I LOVE our BOB dualie. It steers like a dream, one handed even, and I'm so glad we bought it. We also have a Combi double, which is ok. Only bought it because it is smaller than the BOB, so my hubby can have a double in his car.

The only thing I prefer to use (5 kids) is the Maclaren double (any of them, though only some that go from birth). Even the ones that don't, we've had luck with the 3-month-old doing OK in it on recline. These strollers are light and easy to use. They are very well-made. I can take it anywhere. The weight limit is REALLY high and they last forever. I am not aware of any infant carrier adaptations? Maybe they do, not sure.

I do jog and as long as there is a swivel wheel, it's good for me. The BOBS were not so great as the handle only comes in one position. But, jogging with 2 kids is too hard! And then what to do with the others? So we just use it for the park, etc. I run alone when I am able, evenings.

(For that stage where the baby is in the carrier and I have a toddler who is safest in a stroller, I like the Joovy Ultralight Caboose. Ours has one seat and then one "sort-of" seat where they can sit or stand. Not a perfect stroller but it met our needs for that short time. And most infant carriers fit it).

The graco duo worked well for me, especially for walks in the park and trips to mall. I also had graco infant carseats so it clicked right into the front or back, and the older one could ride. However, once the younger one could sit well by himself, I like my side-by-side stroller better for walks, but still use the front-and-back one for trips to store. I'm sure whatever you get will work better than none at all!

Phil and Ted's - with the seat on the back. Love, love, love it!

I love my Bob and I am not a runner. It steers and pushes so easily. I can push the stroller easily with one hand with my older two while holding the little one in my hip. It is huge and takes up a lot of room in my van and is heavy to load but I still love it. I also have a maclaren double stroller and it is small and light and comfy for the kids but there is no room really to hold stuff and it always tips back when the kids hop out from the weight of hanging bags. A big thing for me (but not for everyone) is that I can't push it with one hand and a lot of times I needed to hold a little hand or a baby.

I love Maclaren strollers and the side by side is really easy to steer and maneuver. I would wait out needed one with a carrier attachment as it's such a short period of time you would need that feature. I would rather get a easier stroller for the long run.

I hate sit and stands. Hard as heck to push and turn.

I love the Joovy. It can be used with most infant carriers & than converted once the baby is out of the carrier. It is a sit & stand but light & small enough to get around crowded stores.

I love my Phil and Ted. I would never use a double that was side by side -- to hard to maneuver bathrooms, etc.

I also love that I used my stroller as a single for a year, then as a double, and now I'm back using it at a single. Best investment ever.

From what I have seen. I like the Chico double, it folds up the smallest to fit in a vehicle.

We have the Joovy, which has a platform for the older one, I regret not getting the actual double seating.

My kids are 3 years apart. I am thinking that we don;t use it too much now.

I have a single child, so no recommendations other than I think you are on the right track getting a side-by-side stroller instead of an in-line, which is hell to get up and down when you come to curbs. IN that vein, also consider getting one which has a front wheel which can be either fixed or swivel, because if you do need to go up and down curbs, the swiveling front wheel can be a big problem and make the stroller veer off to the side on the 'up' lifts.

I am not a runner either, but I loved the Bob Duallie. It was such a fantastic double stroller and I used it as our only stroller - shopping, walking, picnics, the zoo, whenever I needed a stroller.

I have an Urban Buggy for my 2 yo twins and LOVE it. It literally turns on a dime with one finger, even with my six year old perched on the front too. Decent enough storage, inflated wheels that go in sand, up curbs, etc. It has such a smooth feel, my hubs and I fight over who gets to push it :)

I just bought a Graco Ready2Grow LX Stand & Ride Stroller - Odyssey from Babysrus. I'm due to deliver in about a month and can put our 3 yr old in the front part and either put the carrier in the back or there is an infant seat in the back. Eventually that seat can come off and be a seat for an older child. It has like 12 different riding positions and does hold a carrier and was only $199. Several of the others it was one way or another. I figured if we have another child then it will still work for the younger two again. So far have liked it and have just used it to take my son to the mailbox and back. Oh and I'm so not a runner and barely a walker. My workout consists of cleaning the house and cooking and chasing kids.
