When I found out I was pregnant with baby #2, I started to get heart palpitations worrying about silly little things like double strollers vs. sit n stand. I decided on the sit n stand since Rylan is no longer a baby. Of course I went for the top of the line and got a fancy Joovy ultralight Caboose.
I loved the color and was excited to get it in the mail. The bad part is I didn't see it in person, and I sure wish I did.
Let me start with what I love about this stroller (a very short list): the color, the two sun visors, the height of the handle bar.
Now for the things I am not fond of...
very little room for the second "big" kid...(as you can see his head is touching the car seat)
even the area to stand is very small, and so is storage.The car seat portion does not seem sturdy. The website did list our car seat as compatible, but it doesn't quite seem to fit right. The angle is odd, and the only thing "locking" the seat in, is that huge red belt strapped around the baby. I guess I assumed that something so pricey would have some sort of lock of sorts.
My last complaint about this product is the toddler seat slides back and forth. Yes it makes it so that there is more room to sit or stand, but poor Rylan gets shifted back and forth in it.
Over all do I like it?... sure it is ok. Do I love it? nope. Do I think it is worth the hefty price? certainly not!!!! I wish I paid more attention to a cheap Baby Trend one or something on the lower end. As I don't really see why this is the "it" sit n stand. Shame on me for not checking it out in person.
