I am looking for a double jogging stroller to carry my 42in 3 year old and my newborn. Does anyone know if this stroller will have enough head room?

This stroller has plenty of headroom - especially since it has Velcro so you can pull up the excess fabric when the hood is up. I have a 4 year old and 3 year old who both fit fine and love riding in their stroller.

42" would probably have a hard time in this stroller with the canopies retracted. The material on the canopies tend to bunch up above the child's head when they are not in use. The folds of the canopies fabric hang down into the toddler's head space. Your toddler should fit in if the canopies are fully extended, however...but you should be aware that you will have to have the canopies extanded all the time. This may or may not be a big deal for you. As an aside, if you truly want to use this stroller for "jogging", I would strongly recommend not getting this stroller and instead getting a fixed wheel stroller. I have tried running with this, and even with the micro adjustment for the fixed wheel option on this stroller, I find it always pulls slightly left or right. I prefer a true fixed-wheel stroller for actual running. The above comments aside, I'm very happy with the quality, ease of use, and light weight construction and features of this stroller. Although I don't use it for running anymore, I would purchase it again...it is my favorite stroller for general, every day use.

I have a 3 year old and purchased this stroller when my newborn joined the family. 3 year old is 40 inches and while he gets pretty comfy in it his head hits the sun shield if he sits up straight. Fortunately if he is in the stroller he is usually in a more reclined position. Over all i am happy with the purchase and have and plan to get a lot of use out of it.

It was too tight with my 40in daughter. I bought the baby jogger summit xc double which has way more head room. I love it so much!

My daughter is about 40 inches and still has room. I have friends who use this stroller on occasion for their 4 and 5 year olds too.

My 3.5 year old is 38 inches and almost fills up the seat lengthwise. If you take the time to tuck the canopy in neatly it'll fit him/her. I'm not sure how long before it's too small for you. Try it at a box store first. By me buy buy baby stocks them. I've been happy jogging with the stroller. It wasn't my fave initially but the one i ranked 1st was recalled. Like i said I've been happy with it and don't regret the purchase.

No. My son is 39 inches and he was too tall for the seat. He fit into it and didn't complain, but there was not one inch of room for growth.
813888
Yes! It sure does!! We bought the infant attachment and it worked awesome! My boys are 4 and 2 now and there is plenty of room to grow. Best baby gear purchase... Well worth the money!

My four year old still rides in it...she is a little cramped but doesn't complain. I have a 5 yr old, 4 yr old and 2 yr old and still use it :)I agree with the comment below that if the canopy is retracted, their head room is compromised. I am unsure of my 4 yr old's height in inches...

Or really for someone over 6ft. My wife is 6ft 1' and has to bend a little to push it. It seems the jogger strollers are better for taller folks. Hope this helps

I have used this stroller with a 3 year old boy who is 35 inches/28 lbs. He still has at least 2 inches of headroom. I do need to use two hands when pushing him, but it handles smoothly. The storage basket is small with low sides and this is my main complaint about this stroller. I hope this helps.

Hi Samantha. I have used mine a few times.. It's pretty roomy and would depend how small your stroller closes down. I do believe it has room though to do so

I've jogged with it but it's not designed as a 'real' jogging stroller. We do have a jogging stroller and the regular graco stroller that we got as a travel system w the car seat snd I'll tell you that both of those are in the basement except this mini. We love it. It's lightweight and so easy to operate. We took it to Mexico when our little one turned 1. We didn't have to check it in, again, because it's so light it's considered a lightweight stroller but it's also sturdy and much better quality that most 'umbrella' strollers. We love it and we have no complaints. Oh and it is very much easy to transition from infant to toddler.

I just got this stroller last weekend . My daughters bitty baby fits perfect in it. You could squeeze two in the bassinet position face-in each other . But I would say not really.

It isn't as big in there as I thought it would be, but it is the only stroller my 5 yr old can relax in enough to fall asleep. We only use it as the jogging stroller. Storage isn't the greatest. It can only fit in our suv, not able to fit in our focus trunk. But is amazing for the 5K races we do. Btw my 5 yr old is 40 lbs and 45".

I don't have the stroller here right now (got taken and left at Grandma's!) but my daughter was 36 inches at 2 years old and it was great for her, and she still uses it at 3.5 years and counting. My 15 month old uses it too, even though it's too tall for him still, but he makes it work and loves it. Even if it's a little on the tall side, it'll be in use for years I suspect.

I don't know about the stroller accommodating a 44" child, however, I would not drag this around Disney World. It is too cumbersome for that purpose. I never travel with this stroller, using it strictly for jogging/walking. I have a Britax stroller that I use when traveling and it is much easier to fold and drag around due to its smaller size.

No, you cannot use this as a double stroller. The space for the basket is not as wide as the space needed for baby or child seat. The basket is much smaller, maybe half the width of the child or baby seat.

Yes, this stroller works great for newborns with the compatible carseat. They recommend that you wait til 6 months to use it for jogging. 6 months is the suggested age when the baby has enough head control to sit in the stroller, without the carseat. They suggest no jogging while the infant is under 6 months and still in the carseat.

I had a Graco snug ride 35 and it wasn't the best fit. I strapped it in while trying it out but never actually used it like that while I was out. He loved it with out his infant seat. Best stroller i have ever owned by far.

I have a VERY LARGE 3yo that fits alright in here... he's wearing 5t or size small if that's a helpful Guage. I don't know that if his little brother (almost 2) was as big a guy as he is they would fit comfortably in it for much longer than another year. So I'd say it depends on how long you plan on using it? We also have a 6 row expedition. Folds up and fits just fine in the back w all rows up. Of all the strollers I've ever had (5 maybe?) This one's been the easiest to Collapse and lock.

My husband is 6 ft 3 and has no problems pushing it and jogging with it. I think the whole advantage of this stroller is it tall-people friendly.

My 2 1/2 year old who is 36 inches fits fine now. I walk with both kids , the weight doesn't really seem to make a difference 30lb and a 22lb 17 month old. A 40 inch child may have a year in it. I don't mind pushing down on the handles to turn around a corner but am usually walking not running. Great double jogger!!!

Height will not be a problem, my stroller is on it's last leg but it has served us well, especially all the many trips to Disneyland and malls. This stroller was my preferred choice over our big twin Aprica that sits in our garage and collects dust. The stroller is light and compact and we have had it about 3 years.

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.
