Sit N Stand 7378 Standard Stroller

After our second little boy came along, doing normal everyday things became much more difficult. Going out by myself, simply was not an option. We didn't think we needed a double stroller initially, but changed our minds quickly after the little one reached 15 pounds. We tried a couple of them out and were sorely disappointed. Someone suggested the Baby Trend Sit and Stand, and we went and tried it out. As most of us know, even the bulkiest strollers feel great on the Target sales floor. So, we took it home, I prepared myself for hours of assembly, only to discover it was mostly pre-assembled! In fact, it took me longer to read the instructions than it did for me to assemble it! I took it out later that day with both boys in tow. It turns on a dime! I absolutely love it. It is so easy to steer, and my two and a half year old can have the freedom to get in and out if he wants. My newborn at the time, wasn't crazy about it, as he only wanted to be in my arms, but I could carry him, and push the stroller with the other arm fairly easily. The basket, is easiest to access from the side, although it will not accommodate a large diaper bag. There is a cup holder and a snack tray for the front seat. The front seat does reclines a little, not as much as I would like, but enough for the baby to be comfortable. It has a five-point harness for the front seat as well, which is nice if baby isn't sitting the greatest, you don't have to worry about him toppling over. There are restraints for the back seat/platform area, although I have never used them for my 2 year old. There is also a strap that goes across the back, if the toddler would like to stand, and you want some added security. The parent cup holders are nice and accommodate most cup sizes, and there are two of them, so your toddler can have a place for his drink as well. I have tried other double strollers, and they pale in comparison. It's worth the cost, and actually less expensive than the leading brands. We never used the car seat in it, so I do not know if that feature works well or not. It doesn't fold down as compactly as I wish it would, and it is heavy (although not as heavy as another one we bought, and then later returned). If you have a car, this is NOT the stroller for you, in fact, I think you will have a very difficult time finding a double stroller that will fit in the standard-size trunk. All in all, I'd say it's a good buy!
