CityMini Double Car Seat adapter ?

For those who have it---do you like it? I finally saw it set up and saw how it sits out in front of the stroller. I guess I was expecting it to sit in the seat like most others. Does this work well for you & do you like it? Is it harder to steer? TIA!

Re: CityMini Double Car Seat adapter ?

I have the stroller minus the adaptor...it stinks but when the guy in bbb showed me it, he pointed out how wobbly it was (even when you add the strap for the car seat too!) and so I decided it was a no-go for us....the stroller is awesome, i wish they made a more sturdy adaptor!

I have the stroller without the adapter. We have been using for almost 6 months. When we first starting using it my DS and DD were 5 months and 18 months. I just put my daughter right in the stroller. The seat reclines all the way back so she was fine. I also bought the belly bar and a tray for the stroller. My DC and I really like the stroller. I change their diapers in it, and they nap in it. It is my mini house on wheels when I am out. LOL I also like the netting in the back of the stroller and find the basket on the bottom pretty roomy.

I'm planning on using the citymini double with the car seat adapter. DD#2 is due in January and my daughters will be 13.5 months apart. I used the adapter on the citymini single and we liked it. We liked it better without the adapter, but it was still good.

Im due on January 3rd with #2 and my DD will be exactily 2. We are going to get the CityMini Double with the car seat adapter. Although I obviously havent used it yet....we did see a woman who had the stroller with the adapter in it and she saw us looking at it and stopped to tell us how much she loved it. She said at first the way the adapter sat made her cautious, but that she hasnt had any problems with it at all and that it steers so much easier than several of the other double strollers that she has. She very highly recommended it...she actually got off of a phone call just to talk to us about how much she loves it, including the adapter.
By the way...I think I remember you being due right around the same time as me with #1....DD was born in Dec 07 and now Im due Jan 10....are we due around the same time again??
