Vibe StrollerJuly 19, 2008 After doing a lot of research on the web I decided to buy this stroller for our 3rd baby. My 2 older kids (2 & 5) both love to ride in a stroller so I knew I needed a double but didn't want to traditional double - I had the McLaren Twin but didn't use it as much as I thought so I gave it to a friend who was having twins. I like the option of it converting from a single to double.
I haven't used it much but here are my initial thoughts: - some reviews said it's hard to close with the doubles kit attached - TRUE! I'm having so much trouble getting it to close easily and it's definitely not a one-handed operation. - it doesn't seem to "snap" closed which will probably be an issue when flying (and we fly about 6x year). - when it closes the front seat is exposed which I think may mean it will dirty easily depending on where you set the closed stroller down.
On the positive side: - it rolls nicely and is easy to manuever with two kids on board - my kids love it - it's comfortable to them and the 2 yr old doesn't mind being in the back seat even though it's low and you can't see much from there. - some mentioned an issue with the new model and the brake sticking but so far no problems there - i don't use a cup holder or other accessories so for me it's fine that this doesn't come with those options. - It looks really sleek and cool - very urban like the Quinny or the Bugaboo
A little pricey for the negatives so I'm going to look at the Phil & Teds Sport and see if that's any easier but being able to fold with the doubles kit on is key and I don't think that one does that.
