Are you sure that the mountain buggy nano duo's seats are shorter than the city tour 2 double? I measured them in store today and the nano duos were a good couple of cms longer in seat back height so I bought it! The nano duo double says its manufactured in 2018 and the city tour 2 double in 2022 for reference.
I like the idea of connecting 2 ultracompacts, but I wonder how much work that would be to set it up. If you are trying to catch a plane, you don't want to take time for three connectors with each two screws to tighten... So which third party connectors are the easiest to operate?
Review of the nuna trvl dbl please? Curious what your thoughts are and might help someone else. I ended up getting phil&ted go for our twins because it was steeply discounted and only using for a couple of trips. We love our bugaboo donkey and for the most part the weight wasn't a problem because we only used in the car about 1x a week. Rest of the week we went to playground, walks, library everywhere within walking distance. Too much bending over for the snaps and heavy with the seats if we don't take the seats off. Now we're using the car a lot more and despite being preemies are 30 lbs and 35 lbs at barely 2 years old. The p&t didn't las long with these 2. We ended up going with nuna trvl dubl due to lack of options in Canada. It goes up to 50 lbs. Relatively lightweight. If they weren't twins I wouldn't bother but when they tag team me, my stroller is a life saver. I physically can't carry 2 toddlers pushing the size of small 3 year olds throwing tantrums at the same time if something doesn't go as planned. I'd appreciate if we had more manufacturers available in Canada to choose from. I don't live near the US border, it's a 7 hour car ride. Shipping is expensive. It's a bit depressing how many models you and others suggest that aren't available.
What if you don't like the outdated umbrella model, but you still want relatively cheap and relatively light weight? I have found the Hauck Swift X Duo, Bambisol Ultra-Compact Side-by-Side Double Stroller, Red Kite Push Me Dubl and Cosatto Woosh Double but I wonder how they compare.
While i love the concept of the baby jogger city tour double (which is not available where i am) the seat back height and weight limit are very low. When I am out and about my kids need a place to nap. That is the main purpose of a stroller for my family, they walk to explore just fine. Unfortunately that leaves only the uppababy glink or something heavy duty like the baby jogger city mini gt. I am now looking into the summer infant 3dpac, but again the seat back length is pretty short. Finding a decent stroller that accommodates my super tall but young children is frustrating. Especially when I don't need a huge heavy duty jogging stroller.
@luketiroby I feel like manufacturers purposely design strollers, then decide 1 or 2 flaws to purposely incorporate so that parents are constantly left buying more while still being ultimately unhappy.
@@jojopetrovski9352 well that certainly happened for me lol! I would have to say the city mini GT2 double is almost perfect - but too heavy for international travel! Hence me buying two double travel strollers which I think are both duds. This one for the bad fold and rickety parts and the city tour 2 double for the short seats that barely fit an 18 month old.
The Valco slim twin has a higher weight capacity per seat, but the city tour weight capacity/seat still is the average weight of a 4 year old which still great.
@2222titia I looked this up and was considering it for sure...but the slim twin isn't available where I live. In fact even the trend duo which they have on the website has been out of stock for years now, without the option of shipping from another country. I have been looking on fb marketplace for used ones...but that would be pure luck at this point and it would be pretty old if I did find it.
Yes, that is likely to be a so much more convenient and faster set up than the option with the third party connectors! I would love to see them compared to the Leclerc Influencer, because you can buy model-specific connectors for that one. I am expecting the Influencer to be easier than third party connectors and the Bumprider should be the absolute easiest.
I was thinking for a zoe (kinda like the Phil & teds, & BabyZen) it clicks onto attachment. But, I'm not sure. I'm gifting it to my sister who lives in the Philippines, and she uses Jeepneys and tricycles (kinda like a bus and a motorcycle with side car like an UBER) Since she just separated from her husband, she has a 3 year old and a 1 year old, her son is tall, so I picked the zoe tandem so when her son just wants to walk it would be easy for my sister. Since they are both easy to put together and take apart, (in the same time handling 2 children by herself) but I know it would break over time. I like the city tour 2 double since we had that before, and it never broke but the carry is what worries me. How does my sister carry her 1 year old daughter and the city tour 2 double and her 3 year old son onto these vehicles? I'm in the dilemma 😫 I go on my plane in June and still don't have something. I like the uppababy G-Link 2 since its around the same wiehht as city tour 2 double but it's an umbrella kinda thing I don't like towards comfort, but it does have a handle, and if I get the v2 glink double it's heavier for some reason .🤷🏽♀️ I don't know what to choose now. I'm still in that boat. I want her to have something simple as possible, (my sister is kinda on the slow learning side.) I don't wanna go back and forth just to teach her how to fold the stroller or such. Plane tickets aren't cheap. I just want something durable, heavy duty, with a nice fold that she can learn easily and also can carry her 2 kids around. Also thank you for the video.
I have los of hair stuck in the union of the wheel in both sides and I can't take it out..I try cutting the hair with a cutter but it inside the wheel maybe idk

Any thoughts on the bumprider connect strollers? They seem like a happy medium

Can you please review more side by side lightweight travel strollers?
We love our baby monsters easy twin 4! Perfect for travel because it's so light and compact

The city tour 2 double's seats are tiny. They just need to make them about an inch taller!

Surprised to not see the bumprider even mentioned

What about the BAby Monster Kuki Twin ? Thanks for your videos:
I’m curious as to what your opinion is on the Cosatto woosh/woods double

Please tell me where can we buy replacement cover for stroller that is very faded. Can we dye it or buy new fabric cover?
Ask the manufacturer
