Which duallie do you have? Just started looking at them and Geez. Lots of options!
Would you choose differently if you could go back?
-
We have the BOB duallie revolution SE. It's a few years old and we got it used. Really like it! Definitely gets the job done
-
We have the Bob Duallie Revolution SE Flex! Basically like the one above, but the handlebar height is adjustable. DH isn't that much taller than me (just about 3 inches), so it wasn't a must-have feature, but it wasn't that much more expensive, and DH pointed out it'll prob add to the resale value...
Anyway, we love it! We have a single Bob too... love them both
-
we bought a used dualie (older model, with seats that sag in the middle) for $175 on Craigslist and it's been totally worth it!
-
Duallie Revolution SE - it's been so great! I use it almost every day. I don't think I would choose differently but I do wish it had a hand brake.
-
@Mrs. Deer: @SAHM0811: @HabesBabe: @HLK208: I read a review that did mention the sagging toward the middle. I'm just envisioning the kids stuck in a crater against each other lol! Any thoughts on that?
-
@HLK208: Yeah I was looking at the model that had the hand brake. Someone complained that you couldn't use the parent console with it, but I haven't seen any of these in person so what do I know! I would imagine the hand brake would be a nice feature esp when running!
-
@sorrycharlie: I haven't seen any sagging! We've had ours for 2 years and it's held B and E (together weighed 70) now it holds just the girls. I could imagine that happening if it was stored incorrectly.
-
We have dualie Revolution SE. Love it! Not sure how it could sag unless you are extremely rough on it. Ours has foot brake.
-
@sorrycharlie: no sagging here!
-
I want one soooo bad! I almost bought one uses but someone had beat me too it. They are so expensive, but we don't have sidewalks where I live and go hiking a lot so it would be great.
-
@jedeve: do you have local FB resale groups? I see good prices on resale sites..
-
@sorrycharlie: I think the ones that sag have fabric over the front wheel (like this: http://www.rei.com/zoom/1023417.jpg/330 ) vs the newer models that have plastic over the front wheel (like this: http://www.bobgear.com/uploads/products/images/revolution-se-duallie-63.jpg ).
Apparently the older models' seats are hammock-y and the newer ones have a frame that reinforce their little bottoms.
Like I said, ours sags, but it doesn't bother the kids one bit. My mom McGeyvered the straps in the back somehow to give them a little bit more support, but it honestly doesn't impact them at all.
-
@HabesBabe: Good to know! There's really none listed around here on our local groups or Craigslist. Womp womp. Just one that must be old, it only seems to have one large canopy?
-
@sorrycharlie: Whoa, that must be pretty old! Mine's a few years old, too, but it has two separate canopies.
-
@BandDmommy: @jedeve: @Mrs. Deer: What is a normal price for a used one? Around here they seem to want about $100 less than retail for a 4 year old stroller, that's not normal right? If it's not a decent discount I'd rather just buy new.
-
@jetsa: I thunk ours was maybe 4 years old? We paid $325 (the canopy had two rips as did the handle bar - easy fixes). We did see a bunch though that wanted so much more than that and I too thought it was ridiculous
