Has anyone used this with a larger/taller toddler/child? My infant is a large infant, and I'm wondering whether it will last us a few years. Thanks!

My son is 2 1/2 and he is tall for his age. Right now the shoulder straps are on the 2nd setting comfortably. Even with him being in the 90th percentile, I think he will use this stroller until he doesn't need one anymore....then I'm keeping it for baby #2! It really rocks!!

I do not recommend this for anyone with a bigger kid. My 2 year old is taller than most, and was very uncomfortable in this. Although it's bigger, the baby jogger summit double is very roomy and worked out much better for us.

My son is 14 months old and I'm still using it. I figure the way he's growing, I'll probably can use it 3 or 4 more months. My son is 24 pounds and 2 feet 5. He's big ;)

I would say you can use this to 9 months maybe. My child is on the larger side and at 5 months it doesn't look like he will fit in it much longer. On my previous bouncer I had a 2 yr old sit in one and didn't think it would hold him. This one might be the same but I don't think I would try it.

I have not had any issue with that at all, we have a 35 lb 2.5 year old and a 24 lb 1 year old and they do fine....the only thing I have noticed is that we use it as a stroller a bit for walks and the included wheel is wearing pretty quickly so the upgraded wheel would be beneficial, we have not had any issues!

I used our first one for 1.5 years. The only reason I stopped using it is because my daughter reached the height limit and I turned her forward facing.

Hello,Well it all depends on how tall your son is. My son is 1 going on 2 years old in August, and he is between 31 to 33 inches tall. The handle comes up to the very top of his belly, right under his chest. I can tell that even when he gets taller he will still be able to use it for a while, but it does seem like it's built for a shorter toddler. If your grandson is a tall or normal -height-for-his-age toddler, this may be a little short for him. I hope this has helped you. Thank youWorldGoodsCorp

I agree with many others. With my first child, the swing stopped reliably working around 16lbs. It would slow down and stop if his weight was at all unbalanced in the swing, so we packed it up. We now have a 13lb. baby and I'm already seeing it stop sometimes. I can usually restart it by turning it off and then back on again, but I think it highly unlikely that a baby over 20lbs. could use it for long!

hi--mine was bought as a Christmas gift--but I have seen it..it would be okay if the 3 year old were small for his age. I bought this for my grandson who just turned 2 years old yesterday. I am wondering how much use he will get out of it, as he is already 3 feet tall. So I would consider the size of the child before buying

Hi James! Well it all depends on how tall your son is. My son is 1 going on 2 years old in August, and he is between 31 to 33 inches tall.

I have both the toddler and the infant size and my little boy is 10 months old. It just depends on the baby, he does good with both, although the smaller one seems to be more comfortable for him. The toddler one is a little bit thicker and longer so he doesn't roll off of it as easy. I would go with the thicker one because baby can always grow into it. This age can go either way. Hope this helps!

Did you end up purchasing this stroller or a different one? I am in the same predicament and haven't decided. Concerned that my two kids, 2 years and 5 months, both 100th percentile, will outgrow quickly. Thanks for any feedback.

My 2 year old just started being able to get on it himself and actually use it. My 5 1/2 year old is very tall and she just recently said she was getting too big for it. I would say he will be able to use is for a couple years and really like riding it around.

I tried it on my 3 month old who is 13 lbs. it's very big and bulky. It does tighten enough so you could use it but there are other, more comfortable options for an infant. It is better for a bigger child.

I have tall kids too - loved this stroller but had to sell it as my then 3 yr old daughter became too tall, and the tires just couldn't handle the weight either. Leg room was also a problem and her arms were pinned to her sides. I do not recommend this stroller for tall/older kids. She was wearing a size 6 in girls at the time, my now 2 yr old (just) boy is in a 5t and is too tall for the single Expedition we purchased. It is really easy to maneuver and fold down, but in my opinion takes up a lot of room.

Our son used it until he was almost a year old (even though he was walking). He was 30+ inches at that point and was on the highest setting. Our daughter is your son's height and is on the lowest setting still, but she'll likely be moving up soon.

My daughter is now 9 months old and she's still using it however, I can't see her using it past 10 months. A bigger baby probably would outgrow this earlier.
