It has independent seats and canopies. The baby can pretty much lay flat and older one can sit up. It is as rugged as a lightweight stroller can get. We live in a city and it has no problem over very rough sidewalks. The only drawback is that both seats face forward but you can see them through the peekaboo flaps. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lightweight-rugged-stroller-with-big-basket#post-2452981 Sun, 07 Feb 2016 19:20:00 +0000 Littlebit7 2452981@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't know how all of the above strollers would fare on cobblestones imo.<br /> We have a Bumbleride indie. It makes your weight (20 lbs) but its totally full featured. And it literally crushes any type of road surface, sand, trails, snow. Legit air tires and with the bike culture there you could find a pump easily. Basket is big and fold is pretty easy. You can also buy a ride along board. Easily washable. huuuuuuuge sunshade (literally covers down to the bumper bar if the seat is upright) which is huge for sunny places. Has a carry handle. </p> <p>I'd take a look at it. It would tick practically all of your boxes</p> <p>Eta: I'm totally jealous of your move! How exciting!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lightweight-rugged-stroller-with-big-basket#post-2452979 Sun, 07 Feb 2016 19:08:31 +0000 gingerbebe 2452979@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have an UB Cruz. We love it. It's not small but with an aftermarket parent organizer (Britax) it's pretty perfect. It folds and stands up when folded. It's 17lbs I believe and it has a huge basket. It has decent suspension but I don't know about daily cobblestones - it's got good tires and a smooth ride but we live in the burbs. We are expecting #2 and are registering for the ride along board for our oldest when he's a little older. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lightweight-rugged-stroller-with-big-basket#post-2452967 Sun, 07 Feb 2016 18:38:31 +0000 catlady 2452967@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>You've basically described my dream stroller. We have a city mini GT, which is the closest we've come. It's about 21 pounds and the wheels are great. Unfortunately, the basket isn't that big. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lightweight-rugged-stroller-with-big-basket#post-2452959 Sun, 07 Feb 2016 18:30:17 +0000 shortcake 2452959@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What about the new uppababy double umbrella stroller. It's a double g luxe from what I've read. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lightweight-rugged-stroller-with-big-basket#post-2452958 Sun, 07 Feb 2016 18:29:50 +0000 Foodnerd81 2452958@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Is an uppababy Cruz too big? It's smaller than a vista (though not that much) but would be very sturdy and has a nice basket. But I'm not sure how much it weighs. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/lightweight-rugged-stroller-with-big-basket#post-2452941 Sun, 07 Feb 2016 17:56:59 +0000 Mrswonderwoman 2452941@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I posted a LONG time ago about strollers, but thought I'd post again now that the time to pick out a stroller is coming quick. My husband and I are relocating to Barcelona for a year. We don't have housing figured out quite yet, but we will be relying on public transport for getting around. I currently have a bob jogger, but I don't want to bring that with us. I want something that is lighter, but has some rugged wheels (because there are cobblestones in BCN), and it would be nice if it had a big basket since I'll have a 6 month old and 3.5 yr old to lug a bunch of stuff around (i.e. - beach trips, snacks, possible daily little grocery store runs). I'm guessing in the early days, I'll use it for my older one and baby wear the little one, then eventually once we are sure the oldest can walk safely in a city along side us, we will probably use it for the younger one. I'm *ok* if it's not a super tiny stroller, but I don't want something gigantic. Under 20 lbs for sure. What would you guys recommend? </p>
