I bought this stroller at the Trade in Event over 3 years ago. At the time I had a 2 month old and a 14 month old. We have used this stroller, without issue for the past 3 years. It is bulky but it's a double stroller so that is expected. It folds up easily and stores fairly flat, once again it's a double stroller :) I've never had issue with the wheels not turning. It's been a great product, well worth the money spent and has served our family well. We are now selling it as our boys are no longer babies but if I ever needed a double stroller again I would buy this one without thinking twice.

For someone who has kids at different ages with one being under 1 year old, I thought this was a good stroller for me. My 3 year old is small for her age and fit just right in the front seat. My 3 month old was perfect in the back. When she was awake she would sit inclined at just the right angle. When she was sleeping I would just lay her back. It is just perfect for us.

After researching I kept coming back to this stroller b'c of the price and it's compatibility with my graco snugride. It seemed to have everything I needed - I just wanted functionality, not frills. But as soon as I put it together I was disappointed. The carseat just doesn't fit well. It has to be wedged in and tilted to even get it in (wakes the baby up almost every time), and then it's hard to get snapped into place. Taking it out is even more of a pain - it gets stuck almost every time and I have to manually disengage it and pull it out, then more tilting and maneuvering. When not using the carseat, I don't like that the backseat has only 2 positions - completely upright or laying down, and also has no cupholder. Another bad feature is that the bar in the front seat can't be moved up and down for easier accessibility. If my older child wants to climb in or out she has to slither down under the bar instead of just lifting it. Once they're all in and sitting it moves fine and is easy to fold up. But often I just don't want to bother with the hassle of fitting in the carseat. Now I'm pregnant again and looking for a different double stroller. I realize you get what you pay for but I thought this would atleast be more functional.

Used this stroller for 6 years with 5 different kids. After 6 years of beating, finally let it go. It tooks us through many years of carnivals, disneyland, etc, etc... It would carry 4 kids at a time when they were tired and sleepy after long day at disneyland. Going to buy another one, even though the kids are getting big. Can't imagine going to disneyland without one! Lots of storage on bottom, and very durable, as it lasted us 6 years!

First off the price is great. It holds two infant carseats a must for twins. It fits easily in the back on my Sedan (when I figured out to lay it vertically straight back). Its 28lbs which isnt light but in the world on double strollers thats not bad! It moves easy through doors and down shopping aisles.Turns easily. For the people who have left negative comments I dont think they have tried other double strollers... we compared and compared and this is the biggest bang for the buck!

I have a 3 year old and a 7 month old I got this before my daughter was born and while my son was still 2. I didn't realize how big it actually was until we got it in the mail. This was purchased for us by my mother in law. It was easy to put togeather but the front tray was hard to snap into place especially when my hands where swollen and painful. Still having issues with my blood pressure so snapping the tray in the front is still pretty hard to do for me. I would have to detach it to fit it in the trunk of our car but now that we have a larger vehicle we can finally fit the stroller without having to detach anything. We also had to detach the front awning in order to get it in the trunk as well. This is not a good stroller if you have a small vehicle with an even smaller trunk. I also don't like how it sounds like it's going to break when I put both kids in it and it's very very hard to attach the car seat into the back seat and to take it out is even harder. If I put just the car seat in the front and my son isn't in the back the weight of the baby and the car seat causes the stroller to tip over. It's easy to move around with it and for the most part it's pretty ok if it was easier to attach the trays and the awnings and had a little wider back seat so that it can fit all graco car seats it would be great. Once my daughters old enough to fit in stroller without the car seat I will probably get a single stroller again. Since by that time my son will have long been out of a stroller. Oh and I really wish they would add a second cup holder onto the tops of the strollers sometimes both my husband and I are walking with the kids it would be nice if we had a place to put all our drinks.

The stroller is heavy and it is hard to take for walks it goes to the left. My tire messed up and I put a protection plan on the stroller when I called to replace it they said I didn't have one amd id have to stop my busy weekend to call bank and get a lot of information well I call Graco and they helped me right then. If you buy the plan they don't keep record and u lose money. The stroller needed replaced and toys r us wouldn't help just keep that in mind when paying a lot for a stroller!

I have had this stroller for around two years now. While it is still in very good condition I really hate it. The only reason I kept it this long is that it is expensive and the husband wouldn't hear of changing until now.
First off, I bought this while I was pregnant with my youngest and I did not bring my oldest or the car seat. All big mistakes. If you are thinking of buying this I would highly recommend bringing both kids and the car seat in to try it out. Put your kids in it and drive it around in the store. They will let you. I wish I had. Serious Cons:
1) My GRACO infant car seat did not fit right and took up more than half of the stroller. If I were to put it on, I couldn't fit my oldest son in the stroller at all! I ended up having to recline the back seat and lay my newborn down in order to fit both kids in. I never would have imagined that a car seat from the same company wouldn't fit!
2) With the weight of 2 kids in it (at the time it was an infant and a 2 yr old) the maneuverability of it diminishes significantly. Even my husband starts huffing and puffing after a little while at the zoo. This thing is so hard to turn!
3) The rear seat only has 2 positions: fully upright, or fully reclined. My baby hated that.

There are a few pros:
It can take a beating: 2 boys for 2 years!
There is a lot of storage underneath. I mean, you can bring EVERYTHING.

Overall: I hate this stroller and will be trading it in during the trade in event to get a discount on a new one. I have had friends who got side by side ones and said they were much easier to maneuver and they had no trouble getting through doors. I think I will take my kids in to the store and try some out.

I liked this stroller at first. It was hard to open and close, but I got used to it. But now after only 5 months of using it, it broke. Not very happy right now. It broke when I was trying to close it, and I was being gentle with it. I had a screaming 5 month old and a screaming 2 year old waiting for me to fold it up and get going. Really dissapointed. I have never had any problems with graco products.
