So far, I'm happy with the Joovy Ultralight. Being a mom of four children under age 6, I have gone through six other strollers. Having tried other double strollers, I knew what was important, and that was ease of use and weight of the stroller. This one is the lightest double on the market, which is a big deal when lugging it in/out of my vehicle. It opens closes quickly which is important in a parking lot with little kids. I am able to fit the baby comfortably in the car seat. The sit/stand feature is handy and I can appreciate that there is even a belt in the jump seat for my 2-year old who still needs to be "contained". If needed, I can fit a third child on the standing platform, one in the jumpseat, and one in the front seat. As far as taking corners and manuverability, it is the best one I've found in a double stroller. My other double strollers felt like I was trying to drive a semi truck. Storage capacity is just fine. I can easily fit a diaper bag. LOVE the extra big canopy--super important with little ones. The only thing I would improve is to have some kind of standing feature when the stroller is collapsed. As it is now, when I collapse the stroller, I immediately have to lay it on the ground, whereas other strollers can stay upright until you can get the trunk of your car open, etc. The fact that you have to immediately lay it down on the ground contributes to it getting dirtier faster. This is a minor issue in the grand scheme of things. Make sure you prioritize what is important to you when stroller shopping because I have yet to find the "perfect" stroller, but this one is close.

I love this stroller! It is lightweight and easy to maneuver. It folds up more easily then my mcclaren stroller. I have a 3 year old and a 1 and a half year old and both of them love it. My ONLY complaint is that the back seat does not have a backrest for my older child which makes long stroller days more difficult; However, all i have to do is take a small pillow to put behind her and we are good to go.

The underneath storage area gives more then enough room for my things

I am one happy mommy!

This is a great stroller in concept. However, when the baby carseat is buckled in, there is hardly any room for my toddler to sit in the "big kid" seat. It will work much better when the front seat is all the way up. Otherwise, I'm happy with it but it's hard to get her to sit in it because it's too uncomfortable for now.

We have owned this stroller for a couple of months now, and love it. I was deciding between this one and the regular Joovy Caboose, and decided to go with this one because of the larger canopy and the fact that it lighter weight. It does get a little heavy when pushing it uphill with two kids in it, so I can't imagine how heavy the regular caboose would be. We use this often for walks through the neighborhood, and it steers great. I have an infant and a 3 1/2 year old who can never make up her mind if she wants to walk or ride, so this is the perfect set up. Even with the infant carrier on the front, she still has plenty of room and you can use the straps on the jumpseat to buckle it in place so it doesn't move. I love that it has a buckle for when she is seated in the back. I do wish it had an adjustable handle though; I am 5'4", and the handle is a little tall for me. That is my only complaint; otherwise the stroller was a great purchase.

Fits easily in the trunk of our honda accord. I remove the sun visor first, but that's all.

The quality of the joovy is much better than the baby trend sit n stand. The joovy has a thicker axle, ball bearing wheels and generally excellent craftsmanship. The wheels on our last evenflo stroller collapsed, hence we steered clear of the plastic on metal axle design most strollers use. The baby trend SNS on display at another store had flimsy clips retaining the front tray - one was already broken. Also it's seat would not fold back because the brackets were riveted in the wrong place. Glad we went with the joovy from Babies R us - worth twice as much as the sit n stand in my opinion.
Cons - The front tray is tricky to remove so treat it as fixed, except for replacing with car seat adapter occasionally.

i have a 1 year old and a 4 year old. This stroller is great for us. I had a double jogger that was heavy and too wide for most places I went. This stroller is lighter than my single jogger. It fits both kids well and they seem comfortable in it for longer trips. The storage bin fits everything that I need/want to bring. The sun shade covers both kids well and completely covers the front set when the little one is sleeping. It is easy to turn and push with both kids on it. I have taken this stroller on grass, playground bark, gravel, dirt, streets, and sand walk ways (not the beach). It rolls on all these surfaces just fine. It folds up easily and fit well into my car. I just wish I had this stroller sooner rather that fighting with my double jogger. This stroller even fits on the air port walk ways not problem. The airline was able to gate check this stroller since it folds up small and it light weight. And it even fit thru the carry on bag scanner at the security check. Its small but mighty!!

I bought this to transport my 2yr old and 5 yr old, and it does the job great! Both kids love it, and it is comfortable and has a great spot for my cell and keys and drinks...only downfall is that when you fold it it takes up a lot of space in the back of the van. Combined my children weigh 75 lbs and I can't tell it when I push them in this stroller.

Goes well with my Chicco car seat, love the color and style. Extremely lightweight and maneuvers around stores and corners with ease. Perfect for an infant and a 4 yr old who always eventually wants to sit and ride at malls, zoos, etc. I previously had a Graco double stroller, and it was so cumbersome, heavy, and hard to push compared to this one! Worth the extra money, in my opinion.

I used to own the Baby Trend Sit 'n Stand stroller. It worked fine until my baby became a toddler. I have 2 boys, a 22 month old and a 4 yr old-weighing in at 33 and 39 pounds respectively. I quit using my double stroller because it was so difficult to push! I had to make little scuffling running motions just to get it to turn a corner. That was it for me. I sold the Baby Trend on [...], and after much deliberation and even more research, we purchased the ultralight caboose. Amazing. I can push it! With two kids on it and with only one hand! It floats, it's short, I can access the basket underneath because the kid seat moves!!! I use to imagine that feature. The parent handle is taller so I don't kick the stand platform. It is as long as a normal stroller. The front seat is deeper and has arm rests, love love love. A lot of sun here in TX, remedied by the shade that covers BOTH KIDS! (I rigged my baby trend for sea world last summer by taking a shade off a different stroller and taping it to my double.....no longer need to do that). Strangers ask me about it all the time. Totally worth the price, in my opinion, trade up for the ultralight. You get what you pay for.
