   I have bought about 8 previous strollers (some double and some single) and nothing even holds a candle to this stroller! It has all of the right combinations you look for: Pros: 1. Great handling 2. Extremely light weight. 3. well balanced. 4. The best sun shade I have used to date. 5. nice shock absoption for using lighter, plastic type wheels. 6. The easiest set-up of a stoller to date. 7. The fastest and best folding mechanism I have seen. 8. Great spaces for holding things, especially if you buy the extra cup holder with insulated compartments. The cooler accessory works well too once you figure out how to get it on correctly (it took me 5 minutes). 9. While not a true jogger, it works great for rougher terrain and overall fast street walking. Cons: 1. Not a visible enough brand...I wish I knew about this before I spent the money on the folllowing: B.O.B.,MaClaren, Jeep,Peg Pergo,Graco,Baby Trends, Snap and Go,Joovy Caboose! All of these have some, if not all weaknesses in the above catagories.

   We just got our city mini double stroller this week and I have been thrilled with it. We only have a family sedan (Hyundai Elantra) and I was a little worried about it fitting in the trunk, but it is so compact that it fit in SO easily (lots of room to spare- and no having to remove wheels or turn it specific ways). It is wonderful to maneuver, light weight, compact, and VERY easy to open and collapse (you simply pull up on handles at the base of the seat and it collapses itself). I love that it has netted pockets on the back of the stroller for extra storage. There is no problem with the weight discrepancy between kids (I have a 5 month old and 3 year old) because the seats are independent and also recline independently of one another. The shades are wonderful- plenty coverage and both move independently of one another. The shades have two windows per side so you can see your children if you have the shade partially or fully out. The five point harness makes it no problem for me to take our 5 month old out on walks. This stroller really is perfect. I do wish there was a place by the bar for me to put my cell phone and keys, but I understand that there is an attachment available, if I want it that much.

   The BJ double stroller finally arrived. I took it out of its box and assembled it immediately. It was very simple to assemble! I loved it instantly. I was surprised to see the expansive area the canopy covered. I do wish it had a car seat adapter. If they are working on developing one, I would purchase it if need be. I took both kids (4.5 months and 17.5 months old) on a stroll on a graveled trail and our neighborhood streets, and it appeared they enjoyed the stroll. I would recommend it for those with average weight kids. My husband, who is somewhat cynical and difficult to satisfy, actually loves the stroller.
