Graco QUattro Duo - Anyone currently using one?

I am looking for some reviews. I am thinking of getting this one.

Re: Graco QUattro Duo - Anyone currently using one?

I have the quattro duo, it is a good stroller but there are a few issues with it. I have a 2 1/2 son who figured out how to open the straps and lets himself out of the stroller in the mall. Also if I have my 5 month old in the back with the carseat the first seat does not recline. I guess it all depends on how old your kids are. The steering is great, it is a little heavy at 40 lbs but all doubles are heavy. FM if you have any other questions.

I have one and it's ok. DH insisted on a tandum so I just gave in. The straps are very annoying to buckle (check them out in BRU and you will see what I mean). I did have an issue were DS did manage to undo the buckle that he didn't do it again. The back seat reclines all the way down but the front, not so much. It doesn't really bother me though because DS is not a napper. Now that DD is 7 months and can sit up and check everything out, I feel kinda bad that she has to the look out the sides.
As far as it closing, I think it folds to a small size for a full size double stroller. If you plan on getting another minivan then you would probably need to put it on it's side if the 3rd row is up. The steering is pretty good but it is getting heavier since DS is probably 28lbs now and sits in the front. The basket is huge which I like.

I have the metropolitan Graco Quattro Duo Stroller. I bought it when it first came out so I not sure if there are any changes since but I absolutely hate the Duo. It is so heavy and big. I bought it because DS#1 was a big napper when we would go out. However he never seemed to want to nap anymore so it was a waste. DS#1 is a big boy ( around 40 pounds) and it was difficult to push. The straps are a pain and my DC never seemed comfortable in it. I don't think that it folds well and took up a lot of my SUV. I ended up buying the Joovy and I love it.

If you are interested, I would sell mine to you because I never use it anymore.

Thanks everyone.

We actually bought one last night at BBB. I needed it for today and couldn't wait.

We test "drove it" with both kids and it seems pretty good. I actually loved my single graco.
