Baby Trend Single Sit N Stand LX Stroller - Jet

Comments about Baby Trend Single Sit N Stand LX Stroller - Jet:

this thing is sooo hard to push!! i had the double sit and stand and decided to sell it and buy this the "smaller" version. Well it's only about an inch smaller and feels about 20 pounds heavier to push!! I used it once at the mall and went directly to the store to return it.

I've used this stroller on a couple of occasions with the two children I take care of (who are currently 2 1/2 and 9 mos).

My conclusion is that this stroller is just "ok". It's fine for short trips or trips to places such as the zoo, etc but not for long trips or trips involving public transportation and can be difficult to maneuver and steer and is pretty large and bulky. It is also probably better suited for preschoolers with an infant sibling, rather then young children close in age.

Some Pros:

- Very easy to set up - can almost do it with one hand.

- Folds flat, which makes storage fairly easy. Because it is a tandem, it is long though. The family has a van, so I couldn't judge how it will fit in any other vehicle.

Some major cons:

- The front seat simply does not seem comfortable. If the 2 year old sits in it, it's small and uncomfortable and not something he could sleep in if we were on a long trip. If his little brother sits in it, there is no side support and he can't get comfortable and he tends to sag and lean over to one side. This does not seem safe to me, as there is nothing but the buckles holding him in. Also, the front seat cannot recline much with another child in the back.

I've never been able to keep the youngest in the front seat for anymore then 15 mins or so before he starts crying. With the carseat it is a little better but he is at the age now where he wants to sit up and look around and hates being in the carseat.

- Storage. No cupholder or "kid storage" for the child in the back. And it is hard to get into the bottom basket and you can't hang things from the handle. And again with the sleeping/being comfortable situation.

- Maneuverability. Very tough to push and maneuver, especially over long distances and over curbs and around corners and up hills. Also, I couldn't even imagine trying to use this stroller around public transportation.

- Sunshade. It's small, and only covers the child in the front. Also in the way of the child wanting to see out the back.

- Ease of getting in and out from the back. This is both a pro and a con. It's nice that the oldest can get in and out on his own. But at the same time, it can pose a safety hazard if he ever decided to duck out and run ahead while walking near or across a street. While I explain to him to always stay near me and to hold my hand or hold onto the stroller he is two, therefore sometimes impulsive. I did set up the safety buckles to make it more difficult for him to get out, which gave me some peace of mind however being the Houdini that he is he decided to be smart the last time I used this and hang one leg over the side and made the attempt to climb out. I quickly told him to stay in the stroller and not attempt to climb out from the side, and hopefully that will not happen again.

After two tries of using this stroller, I will not use it again. For now, I've resorted using a single stroller and a BabyBjorn and hopefully this will be better suited once the two boys are older or we can get our hands on a better double stroller.

I love this stroller! My little ones are 19mos apart and this had been the best thing ever. It is so affordable, my infant carrier fit on the front (it is a Chicco) and now she is out of the infant carrier and loves sitting up. My toddler loves the "big boy" seat and actually seems to stay on the stroller more because he doesn't feel confined. He can get off and walk for a little while and then get back on. But he tends to stay on more since he has the option (thats how the brain of my toddler works :-) We have had this stroller for 7 mos now and it makes life so doable with two little ones. And did I mention, great price...

The stroller is very easy to put away, can do it with one hand. The stroller is long but narrow. I took it to the mall with no problem fitting in the smaller stores. It would be easier to turn if the handles went up like a bike instead of a straight bar. The front seat will recline if you hit a bump to hard or if the older child pulls on the seat, the bar on the back of the seat is not very secure. The storage basket is a good size but the older child will have to get out of the stroller so you can access it. The cup holders for the front seat and for parents are great. For the price I am very happy with this stroller.

We use it as our 2nd double stroller as it fits in the trunk of my Acura TL. (Other double strollers don't.) Only drawback is that it's not conducive to sleeping children. Therefore, great for short trips to the park, mall, etc. (We use our 1st double stroller, which fits in our SUV, for longer/sleeping excursions.) If you have the time, wait for sale and/or %off coupon. We got ours for [$] that way. Way worth it!

I have the Chicco Cortina infant carrier and this stroller holds it perfectly (with the snack tray popped off). I absolutely love this stroller! It makes life so much easier! My kiddos are 19 mos apart and my older son thinks the sit or stand option is too cool!

this is such a light weight double stroller. the only issue i have with is si that the under carrage can be very hard to get to.

I have a 2 month old and a 2 1/2 year old. This stroller folds down to a manageable size. Maneuvers fine for a double. Has a nice package of perks. The ONLY drawback is the under storage - you have to unsnap and snap the netting to get things in and out. I love the stroller and I'm glad I own one.

Some of the reviews give this stroller a bad review... But I had got a graco bombay double stroller, it was so heavy, and bulky, it wouldn't fit into the trunk of my Chevy cobalt. So we went to baby's r us, and bought the Baby Trend single sit N stand LX, and oh my gosh its so easy to fold, and unfold, and it is so light!Which is great since I'm short!And let me tell you it DOSE fit into the trunk of my cobalt EASY, u do have to take the tray off, and the hood off, but its easy to take off, and put back on. It seems very sturdy, and we live in the country so I tested it on all kinds of things (IE: gravel,moist dirt, wet grass, going over hills in the yard etc.) And it done great! Which is a plus for me since when I go walking its on the gravel road. I haven't really found anything I didn't like about it yet, I'll try to post another review in Feb when my second child is here. I would seriously recommend this stroller!
