Does anyone have the Joovy Caboose Ultralight?

I'm considering getting this. It's the only sit/stand that fits our infant car seat.

How does your older child like the back seat?

DS will be 2yo when DC#2 arrives. We'd probably use it more in the spring/summer when DS will be around 26-27m old when we go to places like Sesame Place and the zoo. I think DS would walk more but I'd like a place where he can sit if he gets tired.

Re: Does anyone have the Joovy Caboose Ultralight?

I have a 2008 Joovy Caboose Ultralight. I bought it brand new in 2008. My DC at the time where 1 and 3. I loved the stroller however it had some faults. I was aware of some issues prior to buying it but went ahead anyway. One con was the padded rear seat. If the front seat was reclined, the back child didn't have much room to sit. The back seat must be pushed all the way forward for more room. I found my oldest stood most of the time anyway. The basket is small and difficult to get to.

Not sure if these issues have been resolved with the newer models. I think it would be perfect for what you are looking to use it for. In the end, I bought a City Mini Double since which I loved.

I have a Sit n Stand deluxe and HATE it. I wanted the Caboose Ultralight.

Friend has it. We used it this weekend in DC. it's awesome. 2 different kids used the back while DD2's infant seat was in the front. Friend's DD is 41" tall and wears a size 4T or 5T and my DD who is a 2T peanut.... neither were bothered by the semireclined seat since my friend had the jump seat pulled all the way forward.

It was so easy to push compared to the Baby Trend. Folds up the size of a regular stroller too.

The basket on the current seats is bigger, and the front seat reclines more too.

I'm trying to convince her to sell it to me since she rarely uses it, her oldest DD prefers walking.
