2.5yo and Twins - Which stroller?

My DS will be about 2.5 when my twins are born. He loves going for walks and likes to be in the stroller. I know that this won't last for much longer, so IDK what to do about the stroller situation. If you had a toddler AND twins, what stroller did you get and are you happy with it? I've been looking into the City Mini Double and just adding on the back board for him to stand on, but this won't be good for walks. He likes to sit and stroll. Is it realistic to think that I can wear one baby and have my DS sit with one of the babies in the stroller? What did you do? TIA!

Valco Tri-Mode with add on toddler seat
or
Valco zee double with toddler seat


I have the tri-mode. It's big, but definitely better than the other triples that are out there.

I saw someone at Disney w/ the Zee and it is really small and more manageable.

I love that I can go out w/ all 3 easily.
They all have their own space and there is decent storage.

I'm selling my Joovy big caboose triple stroller- it has 2 tandem seats and a sit or stand in the back. Perfect for twins and Older child. It's like new- FM me if your interested and I'll send you a pic.

I love it but we don't really need a triple so looking to sell.

The Valcos are really nice and look a lot like the City Mini! I just saw that BBB sells these, so I'm going to take a trip one day and check them out.

I've been hearing so much about the Joovy Caboose! I keep hearing that front/back strollers are hard to turn and maneuver. Is this true?

2.5yo and Twins - Which stroller?

I am in the same situation, but just got a regular double stroller. I have heard the joovy big caboose is really hard to maneuver with all three kids. So that made me stay away. Honestly right now we don't go out that much because it way too hard getting twins and my toddler ready and out the door to go anywhere in the winter. Usually I have someone with me and I use my double and single.

Re: 2.5yo and Twins - Which stroller?

I have the valco tri mode with the toddler seat and love it! My DS was 21 months when my twins were born. It is heavy but so convenient. I bought mine used on craigslist. I love that it can be used as a double or triple. We get compliments all the time and still use it when we go for long walks. My DS loves "directing" us where to go when hes sitting in front

joovy is very hard to manuever. i am going to try the double city with a board for my 2 1/2 year old.

Re: 2.5yo and Twins - Which stroller?

i got the city select with the board. this way if i only had my my oldest DS i could use 1 seat and if i had all 3 he would stand on the board. not always ideal, but in the beginning i never took all 3 out by myself anyway so whoever was with me would push my oldest in our single stroller and the twins would sit the double.

Re: 2.5yo and Twins - Which stroller?

I have the britax agile double (similar to city mini only I got it cheaper on amazon) my son is 3 and my twins are 7weeks. I will wear one twin in the carrier so my son can sit. I did not want to go the triple route!

Re: 2.5yo and Twins - Which stroller?

Just wanted to add the Joovy is not that bad to maneuver. It's about the same as the double snap and go. It's a big stroller so you need some umph to push it. But it holds everyone and thing so I like it!
