Does anyone have this stroller? DH feels like the quality isn't nearly as good as the City Select, but it is sooo much less expensive. Wondering if anyone has good or bad things to say about it. Thanks!

I don't have it, but I have seen it in person and given it a couple pushes. A lady at the zoo had it and she let us check it out when we were debating which double to get it.
If I am completely honest, I was not impressed with the quality and it was REALLY hard to push. We test drove the City Select and this kind of felt like I was pushing a bus compared to it.
HOWEVER, it does have a million options which is pretty sweet, and if you aren't going to be using it every single day, then I don't think the quality would be an issue.

Ive never owned one, but I pushed one around when my neighbor was shopping for a double. It honestly seemed like a bit of a beast. It was huge and heavy and hard to steer. My neighbor ended up buying a used Phil&Teds Sport. That said, I only pushed it around for a couple minutes.
Stroller is one of those things Im willing to spend a bit more on to get what I want.

@loveisstrange: We are willing to spend more if we have to...I literally use my stroller 2-3 times a day, so it needs to be easy to use. We pushed both in buy buy baby, with a fussy screaming toddler, and they seemed about the same (I don't want a Phil and Teds because of the location of the second seat) but I know it is different in real life than it is in the store.

So I do have this stroller, and it's exactly like previous posters said. It's a beast and tough to steer. Also, it has to be locked to fold so it doesn't roll when folded - and it's heavy so that's super annoying.
It is nice that it comes with the car seat attachment and both seats and that it can fold with everything attached. I got mine on sale for $100 off so it was super affordable. I use it at least a couple times a week for our morning walks if I don't feel like baby wearing L (almost 5 months) as J (just over 2) is not a fan of walking, ever.
Here are some pictures from this morning. -
Bumping - anyone else have this?

Thanks everyone!
I got negative feedback on the stroller from two twin mamas on my local parenting listserve. They said it was way too long and that while it worked with the car seats, it was a pain to push with the regular seats attached. Both families ditched theirs by the time the kids were one.
I'be committed to buying a used City Select that I'm supposed to pick up this weekend. The advice I've receuved is that they are similar strollers, and thst the Options is much cheaper for very good reasons (much more than style/branding)
