I don't have it, I have the baby trend sit n stand.

I was at the mall recently and saw someone with it. The infant was in the infant carrier and the older child could not sit because the front seat was reclined for the carrier. I had heard about this problem in the past so that is why I choose the Baby Trend one. I can have the front seat reclined and DS can still sit comfortably with no problems. He actually don't stand on it, only sits.

I have the exact Joovy Caboose Ultralight as in the picture. My DC are now 1 and 3. I love the stroller however it was some faults. I was aware of some issues prior to buying it but want ahead anyway. One con is the padded rear seat. If the front seat is reclined, the back child does not have much room to sit. The back seat must be pushed all the way forward for more room. I find my oldest stands most of the time anyway. With that being said I would still recommend it since I don't believe the perfect double stroller exists. HTH.

I have the sit and stand and there are 2 negatives I have. If my daughter (she's 3) is tired and wants to nap there is no place for her to do that (I have a graco double also) and the other is getting things in and out of the basket when they are both in there is a pain. I don't know how the basket is on that one but just wanted to give you some food for thought

Thanks for your input everyone! I think these manufacturers need to go back to the drawing board for double strollers!! Chat Icon

i have it and all thought its call ultralight its not so light and it takes up my whole trunk. i have a newborn so there is no room for olivia when she sits. she kinda has to sit forward. once mj is in the actual seat part i think it will be better. overall i think its a good stroller for the price.

That's the exact reason I didn't get the Joovy, I got the sit and stand from One Step Ahead (same as Baby Trend). THe Joovy is smaller in length, thereby eliminating room for the toddler jumpseat when the infant seat is being used. I have had my Sit and Stand in use for more than 2 years and love it.

i was going to get that one, but i ended up with a sit n stand instead. i wasn't sure if i would like it, but it actually works out great. i also have the phil & ted sport with the extra seat, but it doesn't hold a car seat so i got the sit n stand for times when i want to leave DD in the car seat. i think the sit n stand has great storage. the basket is big and easy to access through the side. much more room than my pliko p3.

I think I am going sit and stand then. I can't imagine my DD not being able to sit when the infant carrier is in the stroller...to me that is just a poor design!
