I have a very tall 2.5 year old (38 inches tall) and a 7 month old. I spent a LONG time hunting for a stroller that would work for both my girls and not break the bank. I considered sit/stand type strollers, but for a longer outing, I wanted more than a jump seat for my toddler. Finally it was down to the city mini double and the scooterx2. The scooter won because of price and because I thought my tall toddler fit better. It was cheapest to order from the manufacturer (free shipping/no tax). We LOVE the Orangie color - it is very bright!

The city mini double might steer a little easier, and I also preferred its fold. However, it also cost $200 more and the belly bar is an added accessory. Also, the city mini basket is not easy to access. The ScooterX2 has a huge basket, and more than holds my large diaper bag, a couple baby dolls, and bags from stores in the mall. Its fold is easy enough to do, though you do need to recline the seats all the way, which is a little annoying... Read more

I searched extensively for double strollers on-line and in-store. Over and over again, it seemed difficult to find the right balance between features important to us - until we found this Joovy stroller. We have two large toddlers, so we wanted to find a stroller that would carry at least 90 pounds. We also wanted all black fabric that hides food and dirt stains. We liked the fact that it weighed quite a bit less and looked smaller when folded than other double strollers that have a lesser weight capacity. So, I felt good when I bought it on-line and even better after I assembled it until . . . our son got in for the first time. It became obvious to us that they designed this stroller for average sized toddlers who are plump and not of above average height. Our oldest son is almost three years old. He is over 3'6" tall, and he was almost too small for the straps, especially the groin strap that was already maxed out, making it uncomfortable for him to use. I called the... Read more

We originally tried the Chicco tandem double stroller because we have that brand carseat and love their other products as well. However, I wasn't a fan of this style because it was like pushing a bus in my opinion. While the Joovy Scooter x2 doesn't accomodate the infant carseat, I found that its not actually as big of a concern as I thought it would be. The seats lay almost flat, enough so that our 2 month old looked comfortable in it at even 1 month old! We just got an infant head support and put that in there. We have a now 2 year old and 2 month old and they both fit well and look comfortable. The divider is big enough so that our toddler cannot pick at his little sister. The basket is HUGE!!! I can fit our large diaper bag on one side, a water bottle, small cooler, blanket, and kids toys on the other side no problem. The canopy is huge and offers full coverage (unless the sun is lower in the sky and you walk into it--then I don't think any canopy would cover the kiddos)... Read more
