On to cool doubles...

Sorry this is so choppy, hopefully I'm going to edit all these posts so that they make some sort of sense/order.

I am constantly being asked about double strollers. There are so few doubles that push well and even fewer that you'd want to take indoors. Sure those double joggers push great, but I wouldn't want to be the poor person standing next to you in the baby gap!

So without further ado I present COOL DOUBLES:

1. The Jane Powertwin
This is my absolute favorite double around! It's a perfect hybrid and a true do-it-all stroller.
It looks like an extra long single jogger, but has 2 full seats on it. It's got 3 air tires, an aluminum lightweight frame, disk brake (!), great basket, adjustable handlebar, and 2 full decent sized hoods.
The steering is really great. Even one handed!! The size of it is fabulous for all the features you get. Open the size is comparable to the E3 with toddler seat. Closed it is not as huge as a full double jogger, but it can be pretty bulky. Still, at only 30 pounds (or 2 pounds less than the double maclaren) you won't mind the in/out of the trunk thing so much.

The back seat has 3 seat positions, one of which is fully reclining. I really wish they would find a way to lift the footrest in back to enclose a baby. Otherwise please keep you baby strapped in at ALL times! the fabric is a little slippy and the kid'll just end up in the basket.
the front seat reclines part way. Once baby is a little older I'd put them up front b/c the steering is soooo much better with the heavier kid in back.

The hoods are good. not perfect. but good.

The main complaint ppl have about the Jane is the size of the seats. Ok, yes, the seats are on the small side. However, I've never had any problem getting my nearly 4 year old to sit in it for a long stretch of time. In fact, she really seems to enjoy the small space, and if you sit in the back and pull the shade down it kind of feels like a fort:)

This stroller excels at the mall, it is really unobstrusive which cannot be said for most doubles. The push is so exceptional that it can be done while holding a latte (and for those of you that want a cupholder the baby jogger liquid holster does great).
This is also an excellent outdoor, neighborhood, long walks stroller. After all it does have adjustable suspension and air tires.
If you are looking for something that folds tiny and want to take it in and out of the car all the time, this is probably too much stroller for you. (the eddie bauer transit tandem is probably a better option)

At $549 this is no cheap thrill, but when you factor in the double duty it'll be pulling..both outdoors and in...and if you factor in the most fabulous customer service on the planet.....well it all just adds up.

GO BUY ONE:)
