Single
The Bumbleride Indie Stroller has all the style a city stroller needs with the accessories to justify the price – footmuff, cupholder, and bumper bar. Parents love how everything they must have comes in one convenient package. At a similar price, the Phil and Teds Explorer Stroller becomes a double by clicking on the Phil and Teds Doubles Kit. One Illinois mom writes, “All the double strollers were too long or too wide or too heavy. This stroller isn’t any of those things. I feel like I’m back to pushing a single stroller, but with the pleasure of having both of my babies with me.”
For parents not wanting to spend too much, the InSTEP Safari Stroller has all the easy handling of the Bumbleride and Explorer, but with a more conservative price. One parent sums up the Safari’s best points nicely, “This is exactly what you hope for in a low cost product – that it will be so well designed that it can be affordable and also quite good.” For the price, parents have nothing bad to say about the InSTEP Safari.
Double
At a price anyone can love, the InSTEP Safari Double Stroller pushes easily and doesn’t pull to one side. While parents love the price and easy handling, the lack of a snack tray for children and a skimpy canopy may make some consider a pricier stroller. At the higher end of the price-scale, but with more standard features than any stroller in its class, is the Valco Tri Mode Twin Double Stroller. Reviewers agree the fantastic storage stands out as a deciding factor when choosing a Tri Mode, while the easy handling seals the deal for many parents. One parent comments, “The stroller pushes like a dream, whether in the mall or going across dirt and gravel, and it fits easily through doorways. It has a lot of storage space, too, which is especially important with two kids.”
Why spend $650-and-up for a Mountain Buggy Duo Double Stroller? A mom in Las Vegas explains, “This is by far the best stroller I have ever had… I mean you can walk sideways on a hill and use one finger to maneuver it!! And light as a feather, lots of storage it’s money well spent. You get what you pay for!!!!! LOVE IT!! Thank you Mountain Buggy inventor… whoever you are!!” While the Mountain Buggy’s pushability garners the most praise, paying top-dollar does not include the accessories any parent needs on a stroller, such as a rain cover and bumper bar.
