Yes, I believe it can. There are so many options, hence the name. Check on YouTube for videos of the stroller and I think you'll have this confirmed.

We have been considerign purchasing this, can anyone attest to the true smaller size this posts. I just bought a Nissan Versa and thought 3 kids would fit comfortably in the back seat (not quite). We currently have the Evenflo Triumph, Fisher Price Safe Voyage booster, and an 11 year old that gets squeezed wherever she fits. The kids are actually 3, 9, and 11. The 9 year old still needs the booster-he is only 60 pounds. I am considering purchasing this car seat but only if I can get all three kids comfortable in the back seat. This would replace the Triumph.

Yes, this seat may be used in the rear-facing position for a newborn baby that is over 5 lbs. Infant Positioning Insert may be necessary for small infants to achieve a snug fit of the harness around your child (sold separately). However, you may find an "infant carseat" more satisfactory and/or convenient for the first six months of your baby's life, as they are portable. We moved up to the Britax Advocate 70-G3 when our baby out-grew her "infant seat". Furthermore, if expense is key and you can not aford to buy two carseats, infant seat and convertable seat, then get the convertable seat as it will last you the longest and it is the best value for your money. Good luck with your little one!

I owned the City Select for a long time when my boys were younger; now I own the VaryLight in Charcoal . The Select is a very nice stroller BUT the seats are small and my older son quickly grew out of the seat. The seat on the VaryLight has a very tall seat back and a large/tall head clearance. Both the VaryLight and the Select are easy to push and fold similarly; neither stand alone but the Joovy can lean against the wall and stand upright that way with no problem, the BJ cannot. The baskets are comparable in size and access so this is a wash in my opinon as is the fact that neither comes with a parent console which in my opinion is ridiculous with such a pricey stroller but it is what it is. The Joovy does however, come with a front child tray and one can be purchased for the rear rider (the snack tray is interchangeable from front to back) where with the BJ you have to purchase one for both seats. Also, if your child is 2.5 years or older, the jump seat on the back is a BIG hit with the sit & stand versus the double seat stroller! Really, by this age most children do not need a full seat unless you are on an ALL day outing and the child falls asleep. All in all, unless you have petite children who are very close in age or twins, I would go with the VaryLight; I LOVE mine!

Love Love Love this stroller!! I use with infant and toddler but can be used for two infant carseats. You will just need to purchase another adaptor. Hope this helps!!

I personally am using a Graco carseat with my Sit N Stand, however I have several friends who own the double Sit N Stand (which is why I got one) and they all use different brands of carseats with it. It is obvious when you click it in, that the "Baby Trend" brand carseat would fit the best, but it does hold other brands and you can recline the seat to help snug your carseat in closer. :-) I hope that helps a little bit.

No. I called customer service (in Nov. 2014) to ask and I was told they do not currently have an infant attachment for the double but one may come out in the future. The representative also told me the stroller is suitable for use from birth as the seats recline quite far.

Yes. I have a 4 year old who is 40 lbs and he rides along next to the baby in the car seat. There is plenty of room for both but the stroller still feels compact and is so easy to push. We really love this stroller. The other stroller we considered was the City Select. It's also nice b/c it can convert to be a single stroller when the older one's not riding. (Or you can get a glider board for them to stand on). Good luck!

With the old one you could only use one car seat at a time, and I have not seen a double car seat bar for the new (just tray/tray and car seat/tray) You can put a baby directly in the Bob, it lays flat enough and then just get a J J Cole body support (it's better than the snuzzler IMO but about the same price) We did this with my youngest at 4-5 weeks. If you really want the ease of popping in and out with a bucket, even if Bob offered such an add on, with their prices you wouldn't pay much more for a new double snap n go, less for used, and it would be so much easier to travel with. I have 3yo twins, i got my doubl snap n go for 10 bucks on craigslist and it was a great purchase.

I ordered an infant insert for my 2 month old. The seat seems to recline more than enough- and with the infant insert/positioner it is great! I do fasten the buckles- but the insert keeps him from flopping around. I also asked my pedi about the manufacturers caution for babies- she said as long as you don't do anything extreme where the baby would fall out(common sense for any stroller) - you are good to go! My son loves it and so does my 4 year old! This is a great buy. I agonized over this decision for a while. The construction is great, hand brake is awesome, everyone loves it!!

I have owned this stroller for a year now and my first choice was the City Select, but the price was prohibitive. I liked it at first and I still do, but I am now wishing I would have spent more money initially and gotten either the City Select Double or the City Mini Double. I bought this after my second daughter was born. She is now 14 months and my oldest is 3. The 3 year old is 32# and 37 inches tall (63rd percentile), and she looks a little squished in the seat. It does push really well and I liked that it came with both seats and the infant seat adapter, but I don't know how much longer my oldest will be comfortable. Also, it is kind of awkward to move once it is collapsed. I think the Baby Jogger City models fold up better. For these reasons, I am now considering buying the City Mini double. Hope this helps!

just picked ours up, the front recline has 3 settings. 1,2 and 3 (most reclined). Only when the seat is in 1, the rear bench seat is really useable, on 3, the seat back practically covers the entire bench, and on 2 (needed when using a car seat), the partially covers the bench, even with it slid to the rear most position.I just went into Target and they had the Baby Trend sit n stand stroller, the front seat has 2 recline settings, and on both, the rear bench is not covered and useable... I kind of regret not going with the baby trend. Baby Trend also allows car seat in the back as well whereas Joovy restricts it only to the front... just picked ours up, the front recline has 3 settings. 1,2 and 3 (most reclined).

You can put a carseat in either the front seat or the rear. Seat backs but be in recline position (latch on back of seats) and carseat rearfacing. It simply latches on to the trays in either seat. And yes you can put a child in the other seat (regardless of front or back). Very easy to do and change from one "mode" to another.

I haven't installed it yet, but was wondering about the same thing (didn't buy the second seat yet....). In all the pictures Britax has they never put the upper seat in the lower one, which I assumed means this is not something they recommend doing. But in the previous comment, Rachel S Phelps said she did it and does it.... If I manage to get around to testing it in the next few days I'll update you.

Its a platform with straps. Your 18 mOnth old will be able to sit and be strapped in but it's not like a full seat... Just a flat surface. I like that the stroller is not as large as other doubles but two things I don't like are that if you recline the front seat for the smaller baby, it doesn't leave much room for the older baby in the back. Also, the basket underneath is kind of difficult to get in and out of.

I never owned the Radio Flyer Deluxe Steer and Stroll Trike, but from looking at it as compared to the 4-in-1 it looks like the differences are the 4-in-1 has a 3 point harness and removable wrap around tray. It all depends on how much control you feel your toddler has sitting upright and holding on. If you feel your toddler has already passed the stage where they would have any use for that than you could really choose either, it's just your preference. If it were me and I knew I was planning on having another child than I would get the 4 in 1, but as I said before if your toddler has complete control of his upper body sitting in the seat then it is really just which ever you prefer. It is a really solid trike and I have been very happy with it.

These are the EASIEST seats I've ever had to remove or change the configuration - that's one of my favorite things about this stroller - I do change the seat direction quite often.I actually remove the seats to fold the stroller - just because it works better for me in my vehicle.The seats are so easy to put in and out, it doesn't cause a problem!
