Can I ask a favor of someone who has the newest Baby Bargains book?
Mine is 3 years old. What are the recommendations for a double stroller? I'm having the toughest time picking one for DS (who will be almost 3) and baby who is coming in June. We have a Per Perego carseat that I'd like to be able to use with is if that helps.
Thanks!!!

I actually have the book in front of me now. Are you looking for tandem (has a "front-back" configuration, where your younger child rides in back while the older gets the view) or do you want a side-by-side?

Low end Tandem, Graco Quattro Tour Duo (about $225 and 32 lbs), Another top pick for tandem, Kolcraft Contours Options Tandem ($250 and 32lbs). Also says Joovy Caboose Stand-On Tandem ($150 and 26 lbs)
Side-by-Side...Jeep Twin Sport All Weather Umbrella Stroller ($120 and 27 lbs)
If your budget allows...Maclaren Twin Techo (this got GREAT reviews from parents too) it's $380 and 26.9 lbs and seats fully recline
Also..Baby Jogger City Mini Duo ($450-500 and 26 lbs)
Outdoor Treks with 2 kids...top-rated all terrain stroller brands...Phil & Ted, BOB..pricey but feature great quality and comfort!!!

Thanks so much! Does it include a review on the 2010 Baby Jogger City Select (the one with the 16+ different seat configurations)? I'm in love with this one but am having a hard time justifying the total cost for everything we would need.
You've been a great help, thanks so much!!

100...but all the double (both tandem and side-by-side) didn't reach as high as some of the single...that's expected! The highest single stroller just so you know...was the gracco quattro tour sport and it got an 83!

It says the overall score is based primarily on ease of use, maneuverability, and safety!
