This stroller will work great for twins or if you have a newborn and a one year old. Once your child is about 2 they start to outgrow. My daughter is 2 1\2 and is too long for the seat and they do not sell a larger attachment seat (and if they did this would be the best stroller ever:)) I still use the stoller for my 2 1\2 yr old and my five month old but my oldest looks like she is sitting in an infant car seat:) they need to make an attachment for older children!
Pros: Durable, Easy To Maneuver, Comfortable For Baby, Ample Storage
Cons: seats are too small

I was super excited the day I got this in the mail. I put it together myself at eight months pregnant, with a two year old running around as well. Super easy assembly and was up and strolling in ten minutes tops.
This stroller is super easy to fold and unfold. A little heavy, but that is to be expected with a double stroller. I love how the seats fully recline, allowing my toddler to nap if she wants to.

It comes with one infant car seat adapter and also a belt that straps the car seat securely to the stroller.
All in all, we love this stroller. We get compliments all the time. I love the Red color too, it gives it a bit of pizazz. The stroller is not rigid, which makes it easy to maneuver.
I did put the absence of a cup holder as a con, but you can buy an attachable one at babies r us.

I've been trying to find a stroller that will comfortably fit my three year old and two month old. This stroller is perfect. I love that I can change the directions. I thought it was going to be really heavy and big but it really isn't. It fits really well in the trunk of my sedan. Ah! I'm so happy with this purchase. Definitely worth my money :)
My Favorite Feature: The large storage and the changeable seats :D

I bought this when I found out I was expecting my second child and my first was just over a yr old. it was perfect for outdoor events with those two kids and once I found out my third was coming, the handles on the side worked wonders to keep the older one in tow. It's still in great condition for being 4 years old and going to a friend for her babysitting job and will see several more children happy days.
My Favorite Feature: It lasted through 4 years!

Bought this when I found out I was having twins and LOVED IT!!!! It made getting around so easy. I didnt have a problem with set up and down, maneuvers easy and rides so smooth for the kids. I would totally recommend this to anyone with the need for a double stroller! Now that we have one more on the way, I refuse to get a new stoller so I ordered a buggy pod just so that I can keep it and still have it be functional.
My Favorite Feature: space and seating options
Pros: Durable, Easy To Maneuver, Comfortable For Baby, Easy To Fold, Ample Storage

I LOVE this stroller. When I got it my twins were 5 months old. I used their carriers in it first, and now use the seats it comes with. I love all the different seating options. I am 5'3" and have no problem lifting this into the my trunk, and it also folds up small enough to fit in the trunk of my Ford Focus sedan, not easy to do with most double strollers.
The large storage basket on the bottom is fantastic for shopping or carrying all the kids stuff when we are out.
The stroller is built really well, it just takes a beating and keeps on going!
I get sooooo many compliments on this, and there are many people that want to buy it!

This stroller is fantabulous. My two year old and my 6 month old fit in it really well.. This thing turns on a dime.. Goes up and down my crazy steep curb with ease.
The only two issues I have with this thing is that it is a pain to get down aisles in some stores.
Most stores that are not grocery stores don't plan their aisles for strollers. I have had to lift the stroller up by myself and physically move it out of aisles before, because I miscalculated the aisles.
That is a lot of work, as the stroller is pretty heavy.

That is a lot of work, as the stroller is pretty heavy.
The second issue is the canopies. They don't really stretch open very well or very far. You can open them all the way, but then they kind of slip back to a mostly closed state.. No matter what you do.
Other than those two issues, I wouldn't trade this stroller for the world.
My Favorite Feature: The entire thing.
Pros: Durable, Feature Rich, Comfortable For Baby, Easy To Fold, Ample Storage
Cons: No Child Cupholder, Heavy, Hard To Maneuver

I have 4 kids and this is my second double stroller and the only one I will ever buy. The large wheels allow you to use this stroller on any surface! I go for walks on trails, grass, dirt and I at 5'2'' can still push 2 kids in it. It is like the suv of strollers, ya it is a bit bigger but SO worth it. The kids have plenty of room and storage. I get questions about it all the time. Plus I got it on sale so it was only $180ish.

We are a large family and have have been through 7 strollers, 4 of which were double strollers. This is by far, the best double stroller we've bought.
Two of the main issues we've had with double strollers is that if the back seat was reclined, you couldn't access the under storage and the front seat never reclined enough for a sleeping child.
This stroller has three reclining positions and BOTH seats can recline at the same time and you can STILL access the under storage.
This stroller has three reclining positions and BOTH seats can recline at the same time and you can STILL access the under storage.
Customer Service has been fantastic. When we first bought the stroller, one of the front wheels was rubbing. Kolcraft immediately sent two new front wheels and a whole new back wheel assembly, for free.
Currently we use this stroller for our 3 yr old and 1 yr old. When first purchased, the baby was only about 6 months old. Even though it comes with a car seat adapter, we were able to use the regular stroller seat which comes with the infant insert.
We are expecting once again and will be buying another one!
Pros: Durable, Easy To Maneuver, Comfortable For Baby, Ample Storage, both seats recline in 3 positions., large accessible under storage.

This pram allowed me to take the kids anywhere.
For me it wasnt heavy as some described, especially when compared to other tandems.
The seats were very easy to change and swap. I used it for my new born, my toddler (12-24 months) and my 41/2 -6 yr old. He is smallish 16kg and 105 cm, but still loved sitting in it and being with his brother and sister while out and about. I liked the versatility of the options, either facing you because you wanted to see them and talk, or facing forward so they could be occupied at shops. Facing each other playing or watching a movie. Price was great considering all the others out there.
I also took it out with just the one and did the big shopping days, as it was great to carry all the purchases and still be able to care for the little ones.
The hoods are amazing and cover fully and also allow for the kids to be kept in the dark if trying to keep them asleep.
But most of all its easy to use and easy to push and control. Would recommend it fully. My best friend borrowed ours for a couple of months when her twins were born and she loved it so much she brought one as well.

This stroller is extremely heavy and I'm a bodybuilder/power lifter so I can't imagine mom lifting this in the car, it doesn't fold up compact at all you need an SUV and it takes the entire back area. Also falls apart, the cup holders broke off in the first week, the wheels fall off all the time, once I made it to my destination but was missing a wheel so I was without a stroller.
Wouldn't buy this again and wouldn't recommend it. IT was really expensive so now I'm stuck with it!

I have had this stroller for 2-1/2 years now and absolutely love it! The seats turn around every way. There is plenty of storage! It is easy to use and easy to push. My children love going for walks in it. The umbrella actually covers well too. I have not had any issues with my stroller and would recommend it to anyone. I often get compliments about the way the stroller looks. The only negative thing I think of is that is it a little bit on the heavier side and Im not a very big person. Well worth it though.

We registered for this stroller 3 years ago prior to the birth of our twins. we loved that it fit many infant carriers including the ones we chose! We loved that the seats had 3 different position options depending on the kids mood! It was relatively lightweight compared to most and easier to navigate. I loved the deep basket for storage beneath. You could access the contents from all angles.The only downfall was that it doesn't have a tray/ cup holder. It was well worth the sacrifice.

What they need to fix or add...
*Cup holders and snack trays for the kids
*Bolt down Parent tray, Every time I would fold up my stroller the tray would pop off! I fixed this problem by using wing nuts and a longer screw and screwed through the parent tray to bolt it down.
*Come up with a sit and stand version of this or attachment for older kids.
*More leg room for Kids and a longer foot rest
When kids are facing eachother they have minimum room. When the front seat is facing out, the legs hang low and feet get in the way of wheels.
When kids are facing eachother they have minimum room. When the front seat is facing out, the legs hang low and feet get in the way of wheels.
*Make the basket have a drop down bar in the back to make it easier to put bags, toys etc in the basket or get them out.
***Find a way to bolt the handles to the bars. The screw keeps losening and falling out of mine. I think if the screw went all the way threw the bars and out the other side and was bolted this wouldn't be a problem. I have to constatnly rescrew the screw or replace it. I have had the pushing handle pop off on me in the middle of steering the stroller. NOT VERY SAFE! What happens if the whole thing comes off and I have a run away stroller with kids in tow!?! This needs to be fixed ASAP!
*Tends to be a little wobbly especially when making turns
I still love this stroller and I still use it even though the screws always come loose. IF I could get rid of it and my a new one, I would, but I spent alot of mony on this stroller and I can't afford to buy a new one for the same price with similar features. I would not sell this to anyone, cause its not safe with the screws always coming out. I don't want to just throw it away, so i'm kind of stuck.
Pros: Easy To Maneuver, Comfortable For Baby, Easy To Fold, Ample Storage
Cons: No Child Cupholder, screws fall out! should be bolted!, not enough leg room for kids, hard to get things in and out of basket, a little wobbly

I got this stroller right before my 21 month old was born. I LOVED that it had the carseat attachment. Literally every time we take the stroller on an outing we get "Where did you get that?" We are in love. A friend of mine went through 4 different doubles and we saw this one. She went out and bought one as well. I love how light and at ease it is to push. My kids love that they can face eachother when they want or not. I really like how big the canopy's are because some strollers just don't protect from the sun like they should. This has been a great buy and I am looking forward to using it next summer with our new baby and 2 year old. My 4 year old LOVES the handle bars on the sides and thinks its "cool" to hold on to the stroller. :)
My Favorite Feature: How easy it is to use!
Pros: Durable, Easy To Maneuver, Comfortable For Baby, Easy To Fold, Ample Storage, great carseat adaptor!
Cons: No Child Cupholder, takes a bit to get used to taking apart to store
