Best Double Stroller for WDW

[KCheatle]

We are leaving for the World in 36 days (yay!!!). However, I'm a little nervous because this will be my first time traveling with 2 kids. We've only ever gone with my daughter before, so the stroller issue worked out (i.e., I held her on the bus while she slept on the way home while my husband stood with the easily collapsable stroller). This time, though, we are also taking my toddler son. We have a stroller with a place for him to sit and a little seat on the back for my now 6-year-old daughter to sit or kneel or just stand as we roll along, but I think we need something more for her because I think she's probably going to need a nap here and there and can't really do that in this stroller.

I've looked in to other double strollers (side by side double) but I'd rather hear from someone who can say "This double stoller is awesome, collapses well, pretty light weight, etc." or "DO NOT USE THIS STROLLER"

Anyone with any insight please comment!!

ALSO - we are not considering renting a stroller because we need it in the airport.

We have a Baby Jogger City select that we use with our twins. It is extremely light weight and very, very nimble. We love it. It is the Ferrari of double strollers. We have the tandem setup, but I think that they also make a side by side. Our Twins are 5 months old and we just started using the standard seats. We had been using the car seats. It is very easy to use, and folding is done in one motion. Pull a leaver on both sides and it is folded.

Not us, but I found this pic on google. You can position the seating just about any way you want. Facing forward, back, one or both.

On our last trip we were in a very similar situation. We decided to take two umbrella strollers instead of a double. It worked out great! They are lightweight, inexpensive and you can split up if necessary. My husband was also able to hold the two strollers on the bus very easily, while I sat with the kids. Just make sure to get one that also has a basket underneath for storing items and a cupholder.

Hopefully that helps, and have a great trip

My friend has the red one the pp pictured...she loves it, so I decided to test drive it back when DD3 was born. I really did not care for the handling or folding.

We rented a City Mini Double last summer and LOVED IT!!! I wish I'd bought that instead of the Sit N Stand I wound up getting and using on our 2010 trip. Both girls loved it- more comfy and for the first time in eons- they actually fell asleep in it. They didn't sleep for long b/c neither one sleeps well in a stroller, but the fact that they slept at all is saying a lot. We also felt it was fairly light even though it was large.

So, if I could do it all over- I'd buy the City Mini Double.
