It's the only one we have. I don't find it large or cumbersome at all...people are shocked by how narrow it is for a side by side! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/double-strollers-do-you-have-more-than-one#post-1840670 Thu, 28 Aug 2014 13:34:57 +0000 Beebug 1840670@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Deer: We don't use it for errands, I will either get out with just one kid, or when I am on my own I will use the single and wear the other, or if shopping cart, DD goes in cart seat, and DS goes in his bucket in main cart, I really just use the double for daily walks! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/double-strollers-do-you-have-more-than-one#post-1840623 Thu, 28 Aug 2014 13:22:32 +0000 Kemma 1840623@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm on the lookout for a used MB Duet for dog walking and keeping at home but I'm going to stick with our MB Urban Jungle for everyday use. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/double-strollers-do-you-have-more-than-one#post-1840518 Thu, 28 Aug 2014 12:50:29 +0000 Mrs. Lion 1840518@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sunshineandsushi: that's kinda what I was thinking :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/double-strollers-do-you-have-more-than-one#post-1840451 Thu, 28 Aug 2014 12:32:55 +0000 sunshineandsushi 1840451@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Lion: Cost, mainly. I bought mine off Amazon and it was significantly cheaper than the City Mini. After comparing the features, there was really no other huge difference, besides price and brand. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/double-strollers-do-you-have-more-than-one#post-1840444 Thu, 28 Aug 2014 12:32:02 +0000 Mrs. Lion 1840444@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sunshineandsushi: nice! Any reason you went with that one instead of the city mini? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/double-strollers-do-you-have-more-than-one#post-1840432 Thu, 28 Aug 2014 12:28:44 +0000 chopsuey 1840432@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We just have 1. City Mini GT double.<br /> Love it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/double-strollers-do-you-have-more-than-one#post-1840427 Thu, 28 Aug 2014 12:27:24 +0000 sunshineandsushi 1840427@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Lion: I really do like it. It's not that heavy and easy to collapse. And a bonus is that it can stay upright folded up if needed. I did not use it with an infant seat since I had twins and it doesn't support two infant seats, so no experiences to share there, sorry! In general though, it's super easy to maneuver and is narrow enough to fit through all exterior doorways, which by code all have to follow a minimum width. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/double-strollers-do-you-have-more-than-one#post-1840418 Thu, 28 Aug 2014 12:24:51 +0000 Mrs. Lion 1840418@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sunshineandsushi: mostly just whether or not you like it :) did you use an infant seat with it? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/double-strollers-do-you-have-more-than-one#post-1840362 Thu, 28 Aug 2014 12:08:18 +0000 sunshineandsushi 1840362@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Lion: I have the Britax double! LOVE it. What specific questions do you have? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/double-strollers-do-you-have-more-than-one#post-1840294 Thu, 28 Aug 2014 11:43:12 +0000 Mrs. Lion 1840294@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am debating between the city select and the britax b-agile double. They are both super expensive so it will definitely on"y e one or the other. I need to see how they both work with our infant seat, how they fold, etc. i am leaning toward the britax though. I definitely want the infant adapter, and the city mini doesnt work with our britax chaperone seat. I jog with britax now, and i think i could probably get away with some light jogging with the double too, but with the city select that is out of the question (too top heavy).</p> <p>Does anyone have the britax double? I never hear anyone talk about it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/double-strollers-do-you-have-more-than-one#post-1840215 Thu, 28 Aug 2014 10:49:41 +0000 travelgirl1 1840215@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We share strollers with @oliviaoblivia: at the moment and agree with what she said about those two, and would add that the MB feels like it pushes itself, with two toddlers in it it is effortless. Both seats recline too, which isn't an option on the UPV, so nap time is easy on the go.<br /> However, I think if I had a second child myself, I would go for something that has the option of both seats facing me, as well as both bring able to recline, and big sturdy wheels for winter.<br /> No double is perfect, I think you just have to pick the features most important to you and run with them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/double-strollers-do-you-have-more-than-one#post-1840198 Thu, 28 Aug 2014 10:25:43 +0000 sunshineandsushi 1840198@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have two - an umbrella and regular. Our umbrella is this one: <a href="http://www.target.com/p/jeep-wrangler-twin-sport-all-weather-stroller/-/A-13517241?ref=tgt_adv_XSG10001&#038;AFID=google_pla_df&#038;LNM=13517241&#038;CPNG=Baby&#038;kpid=13517241&#038;LID=9pgs&#038;ci_src=17588969&#038;ci_sku=13517241&#038;kpid=13517241&#038;gclid=Cj0KEQjwpvufBRCwzp_zyqfkhrcBEiQA8b-SHBwXhjA1VsvOvkMUsBJM8s1A6GJ5nVszPoCB10DbGR4aAifq8P8HAQ" rel="nofollow">http://www.target.com/p/jeep-wrangler-twin-sport-all-weather-stroller/-/A-13517241?ref=tgt_adv_XSG10001&#038;AFID=google_pla_df&#038;LNM=13517241&#038;CPNG=Baby&#038;kpid=13517241&#038;LID=9pgs&#038;ci_src=17588969&#038;ci_sku=13517241&#038;kpid=13517241&#038;gclid=Cj0KEQjwpvufBRCwzp_zyqfkhrcBEiQA8b-SHBwXhjA1VsvOvkMUsBJM8s1A6GJ5nVszPoCB10DbGR4aAifq8P8HAQ</a>. We actually rarely use it now and almost 100% of the time use our Britax B Agile Double stroller. It's very similar to the Citi Mini Double, but cheaper. :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/double-strollers-do-you-have-more-than-one#post-1840196 Thu, 28 Aug 2014 10:24:49 +0000 Mrs. Chocolate 1840196@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have the Citi Mini GT </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/double-strollers-do-you-have-more-than-one#post-1840181 Thu, 28 Aug 2014 10:12:15 +0000 tysonja 1840181@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>we have the select and use it almost every day. I don't jog with it, though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/double-strollers-do-you-have-more-than-one#post-1840173 Thu, 28 Aug 2014 10:06:05 +0000 Boogs 1840173@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have the same as @meganmp: and we haven't really used I yet, but on a test walk I did one day it definitely is great for walking and way easier to push around than my umbrella. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/double-strollers-do-you-have-more-than-one#post-1840172 Thu, 28 Aug 2014 09:57:18 +0000 MrsMccarthy 1840172@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We will have just one. We have a small place and don't have room or money for more. I'm actually getting a used gray Maclaren double off Craigslist since I love my Maclaren single. I love the joggers too but they take up even more room. This is the most practical for us. I hope it's easy to maneuver. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/double-strollers-do-you-have-more-than-one#post-1840166 Thu, 28 Aug 2014 09:51:28 +0000 oliviaoblivia 1840166@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have the UBV with rumble seat and the Mountain buggy duet. The rumble seat is very convenient but uncomfortable for too long a trip. The mountain buggy is great but I feel awkward taking up so much space in the city. When #2 is born I'll likely wear her and have DD1 in the UBV as a single until the summer and then switch to the mountain buggy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/double-strollers-do-you-have-more-than-one#post-1840158 Thu, 28 Aug 2014 09:38:39 +0000 wonderstruck 1840158@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Heck no, double strollers are wayyyy too expensive for me to have more than one. We have a City Mini double, which I managed to snag an awesome deal on, otherwise I probably would've ended up with the Contours Options. I really like the City Mini Double - they both have a good view, it fits through standard doorways, nice smooth ride, etc. I never really take it anywhere unusual though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/double-strollers-do-you-have-more-than-one#post-1840143 Thu, 28 Aug 2014 09:29:03 +0000 meganmp 1840143@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a Mountain Buggy Duet, which does well off road, does well jogging (but I've only jogged on sidewalks) and is the narrowest one on the market! I've only ever had one stroller. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/double-strollers-do-you-have-more-than-one#post-1840130 Thu, 28 Aug 2014 09:14:10 +0000 autumnlove 1840130@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Deer: I took it on hike once and it did ok but I mostly use it around our neighborhood. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/double-strollers-do-you-have-more-than-one#post-1840123 Thu, 28 Aug 2014 09:07:21 +0000 Mrs. Deer 1840123@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: there's one right now on Craigslist, been thinking about it! Does it do well off-roading? We have a recreation trail along the coast that I love walking/jogging on. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/double-strollers-do-you-have-more-than-one#post-1840098 Thu, 28 Aug 2014 08:52:39 +0000 autumnlove 1840098@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just have one! City Mini GT double. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/double-strollers-do-you-have-more-than-one#post-1840094 Thu, 28 Aug 2014 08:50:45 +0000 Mrs. Deer 1840094@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Beebug: thanks! We have a BOB now and get lots of use out of it so I figure that's the way to go. Do you find it's not too bulky for running errands and such? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/double-strollers-do-you-have-more-than-one#post-1839722 Wed, 27 Aug 2014 22:39:40 +0000 Beebug 1839722@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We got the double bob when #2 was 2.5m, we definitely wore one (DD, 22m loves to go on our back!) and the other went in the single stroller the first little while. The double is big, but great for the amount of walking (and eventually running) we do. I don't have any experience with other doubles, but it's awesome there's so many options, AND online classifieds to find good deals.</p> <p>I won't lie, I bought the infant adapter/tray combo and have returned it, used for convenience, knowing we wouldn't use bucket long tern, back it went...bought the weather shield! I'm keeping my eye online for Dbl snack tray now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/double-strollers-do-you-have-more-than-one#post-1839709 Wed, 27 Aug 2014 22:25:53 +0000 Mrs. Deer 1839709@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I cannot figure out what kind of double stroller to get! Though I think we'll start out with keeping baby in the Ergo and big girl in the stroller, eventually it would be nice to have them both in a stroller. Double BOB's are great but kind of huge. The side-by-side city mini and joovy strollers look great (but may not be best for walks and working out). And of course it'd be great to have an infant car seat adapter.</p> <p>I don't know where to start! </p> <p>What are your all favorites and do you have more than one? I'm trying to narrow it down so I can be keeping an eye out on Craigslist in the coming weeks. </p>
