Features It accepts select Graco car seats in either spot. The front seat partially reclines, while the elevated back seat fully reclines. There’s a cup holder for mom and each kid, as well as a sizeable basket. Our tester said, “Every time I’d go shopping, people would say ‘I can’t believe you fit all this down there.”

Pros “The stroller was very easy to collapse with one hand and it manoeuvred well; I could hold a door open and push the stroller with one hand quite easily. The very solid frame is secure and steady and the suspension is stellar. My two-year-old also really liked it. I think having the cup holders on the sides, instead of a tray across the front, helped him from feeling confined.”

Cons “The stroller folds down small, but the large frame is hard to store it on its side. The lever to drop the basket down when the seat is fully reclined is very sticky and not very helpful. I lost a wheel—it popped off at the grocery store—so I have to order a replacement. And it’s very heavy.”

Rating 8/10
