I recently purchased this stroller online since it is not available in stores. I have two girls so I just had to get the purple model :-) I have a 4 year old (average size, 35 lbs) and a 12 week old baby. My husband put the stroller together and said it was a simple task. I bought the parent organizer so that I could have cup holders and I am so glad I did because it works out great. We recently used the stroller for the first time on a little weekend getaway in San Francisco. Our baby still isn't quite ready to sit in the front seat of the stroller so she rides in her Chicco infant seat on the stroller. The stroller comes with an attachment so you can put an infant seat on the stroller. It is super easy to install, it just clicks in to where the child's cupholder/tray would normally be (the tray snaps on and off easily). In order to have an infant carrier on the stroller the seat has to be reclined. Even with the seat reclined my 4 year old had plenty of room to sit on the bench (the bench slides forward and backward a little). The sun was sometimes in our baby's eyes but between the cover on the infant seat and the cover on the stroller we were able to block the sun from her eyes. There isn't a ton of storage space in the basket down below, but we were able to fit a blanket, a few sweaters, our baby bjorn carrier, and some baby wipes in it (could have shoved a few more things in there, but we didn't have the need to do so). We walked all over the city with the stroller and it manuevered well. The only downfall for this stroller in my eyes is that the seat doesn't recline all the way (would be nice if you wanted to lay baby down while you are out). There also isn't room for a diaper bag, unless you hang it around the handles of the stroller. We carry a backpack as a diaper bag, so it isn't a problem for us. Stroller folds up easily and fits well into the back of my Toyota 4Runner. Overall, I am very happy I purchased this stroller.

I recently (September) purchase a Joovy Caboose at [$] from Toysrus online because our local store did not carry it, I read the reviews and theys seemed good, I have a now 4 month old and a small 3 year old. I hate this stroller and have since regretted the decision. I can hardly lift it and it barely fits in my trunk and I have a Grand Prix 4 door that is not a compact car, and when I do maneuver it in there is NO ROOM FOR anything like groceries and shopping bags. Not having a cup holder really is a pain nw that I have used it a few times too. I am so envious when I see the other moms with their different brand of sit n stand strollers that have cup holders.Also when my 3 year old sits on the seat it is constantly sliding on her as there is nothing to lock it in place. So might as well not have a stroller wit back seat, there is no room for my average size diaper bag in the under compartment either. And my 4 month old still cant sit in seat as it does not lay back and is not cushy enough. Very disappointed in this, I saved up to buy this and now I just leave it in the trunk as its just a pain to use but I really need a stroller I can use. Is there a way I can still return this or get a credit for a different stroller that I can use, would try to sell it but dont feel right selling something I hate myself. Please let me know or I guess there will be a very luck garbage man (or unlucky) very soon and I will jus be out [$] dollars cause with 3 kids I HAVE to have a stroller that I can actually lift without getting a hernia!

It was easy to put together and relatively easy to fold and open up. It's easy to maneuver around tight spots. It feels a little heavy when lifting in and out of the car and if you're climbing a hilly street. I like that the sun shades are adjustable to where the sun is. If it had cup holders for me and my older child, it would be even better. Overall it is a great product.
