Doesn't anyone elses kid drink or snack on the ride? Why is everyone so positive and happy about the fact that this stroller has two cup holders for the driver (and an iPod deck in the Plus model), and no one, in their complaints, mentions the fact that THERE IS NO CUP HOLDER FOR THE KIDS!! At least not in the pictures. If you own this and it DOES have that PLEASE post that information. Because that is the make it or break it deal for me. I have two boys, and no they CAN"T just hold their snack cup or sippy while riding, they like to do other things with their hands and when they tire of holding a cup they throw it down if they have nowhere to put it. I'm AMAZED that no one seems to miss this feature on this stroller. I will not buy it if it doesn't have that, I hate to be constantly leaning around to hand them stuff. My overall comfort is based on knowing they can help themselves. Doesn't anyone elses kid drink or snack on the ride?

I have heard that you can order the snack trays for the Kolcraft single stroller and they attach to the double just fine.

I agree as well, BUT all of the other pros outweigh this one con!!!! Plus, I've heard that you can order one from their website.

As I have been looking at strollers, I too have noticed that it does not have any cup holders for the children. But, the newer version, "twilight" (the blue/gray version) does have 2 mesh pockets inside each seat. Not ideal, but it's better than nothing.

i just got 2 cup and snack holders for the stroller Safefit Snack Pod, Grey (Discontinued by Manufacturer) you just attach them on the bars and they are awesome because you can attach them on carseats as well.

What we have done in the past (before strollers came with snack trays/cup holders, I'm old!) is you get these things that "snap" and it's like a string or ribbon, you put it around the cup or snack and snap it to the stroller. We did this with bottles 15 years ago for my nephew who would throw them out after done, and we were at a amusement park and kept losing bottles as we didn't see or hear him do this! lol haha

You can get straps like this:Booginhead SippiGrip - BlackIt may not be ideal, but they do keep my 15 month old from throwing her drink when she's done. I also use a snack trap cup so that her snacks don't spill if she drops the cup. Snack Trap

I haven't tried using snack trays in the stroller yet. There at a lot of different snack trays, so some may work and others may not.I would recommend going to a baby's r us and test it out. If they did work, it would probably be only in the front because that is where the cup holder attachments are located.

Hi Amy,Thank you for contacting us! In response to your inquiry, kiddos "lean to steer" aboard the Micro Mini. This means that they use their body weight to steer (many kiddos describe as "steering with their tummy") rather than simply turning the handlebar as one does aboard a bike. This not only allows kiddos to gradually get the hang of the scooting ways, it is also what makes the scooter *fun* to ride as it almost feels like surfing the sidewalk. Please let us know if you have any other questions-- we have a toll-free telephone number, 888-236-5657, and are open Mon-Fri from 9am to 5pm Eastern Standard Time (EST). Cheers!

Our grandson is 17 months old and he loves it. I've seen notes from others about their children/grandchildren being much younger and much older who have also loved it. That's about all I can tell you. I think most children up to ages 3, even 4 and older will like it. Sometimes it depends on what else they have to ride around in. We also have a stroller, but our grandson will ride in the cozy coupe as much or more than his favorite stroller. When our other older grandkids come over, they also have a blast going all over our house with our younger grandson. It's just a blast for the whole family!!!

Unfortunately I am not in contact at the moment with my grandbabies. I hear it is a great busy hands toy. I am hoping to get our legal rights filed. She is an AMAZING and SMART little girl! And if your son doesn't take to the toy, you can always return it. Best wishes to you and your family!

I have the push up as far as my model allows. My husband is 6'3" and while it does seem lower than the average stroller he hasn't had any trouble with it. The new models may have longer bars or extenders I haven't checked. We love this stroller though! The peanut bassinet was wonderful when our baby was tiny. We have 5 kids so this system is by far our favorite over the monster strollers we had previously. It maneuvers so nicely through amusement park crowds and stores. Your height may make you feel a bit like you are pushing a toy around at first but my husband definitely isn't stooped over or uncomfortable when pushing baby around. Best of luck!

Thank you so much !!! Whew...one more question if you don't mind. I have a 2 1/2 year old that is about 28 lbs and I keep reading some concerns about the size of the toddler and being comfortable. Have you any experience or comments about this and are you overall happy with this stroller? Thank you so much for your time !

I just ordered mine last month in March. It is great for two kids but you would not be able to attach another stroller to this one. It does however carry two carseats so if she isnt wanting a triple stroller then she could wear one baby while the other two are in the stroller but that would probably only work for the short term. If i was her i would just invest in a triple stroller. Good Luck!

i have a boy and a girl and i own the countours tandem stroller and i love it i never go anywhere with out it... ohh and have i said my boy was 11 1/2 months old when my baby girl was born??? he didnt walk or anything ..... i use my stroller still and baby big girl just turned 2 the last week of july and baby big boy turned 3 the second week of august...they are 351 days apart.... so we live in texas and we have several outdoor things here yearround so i love that the wheels just go on all types of ground or pebbles and rocks , concreate, dirt, mud, grass... and i have a 1st cousin who lived in colorado and she has the same exact stroller , she loves hers too..... now it is a little bigger than some but not to much for me ..im 5'7" tall and usually around 165lbs.... im not a small woman or a large woman im not pettite in any way and i do have 3 feet of legs so that may make a difference but i drive a ford fusion and it goes in and out easily. now the only place i have ever run into something or someone is at the peds. office but i have seen women do it with the umberella strollers .... so .... the biggest problem i have heard about from moms of multipuls is about side by side strollers they dont fit through doorways or mall isles or any isles actually...... hope this is helpful , feel free to email me at kednb@aol.com if you have any questions about this stroller including if you want actual pics.....

Hi. Did you two purchase the stroller? If so, I'd love to hear how you rate the stroller? Is it worth the price? Has it held up well over time? Any annoyances? Good customer service? Thanks!

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!

I am sorry- I don't have a kid with a mini hydration pack! I can tell you, however, when I looked at the pack online, it sure looks like it is the same stuff, only a smaller pack. Never saw any parts options for replacements that are "mini" sized so I would feel safe ordering....also, it might be a good thing to get a "Bit Bite Valve Cover" while you are at it. I know kids might be a little rough on their stuff, but if you can get them used to it, using a cover is a really nice habit.

My son bought this for me and I love the idea but the cup that you put the pods in is so hard to pull out he could not do it. I really want to like it so he filed down the sides of the cup and smoothed it. It's much better now but I feel that he should not have had to do this. Has anyone else had this problem? I really don't want to have to return it or to spend more money to get a better one. I only have 1 cup a day and this is perfect for me.

yes, it is perfect. I have a 3 1/2 yr old, 2 yr old and 10 month old and I have used this stroller for all 3 kids at all varying ages. My 3 1/2 yr old fits on top still, not so much on the bottom. My 2 yr old can sit in either chair and actually enjoys both. The chairs are large enough and seem to have enough head room that the older kids have no difficulty sitting in comfort. Even when I put my baby in the bottom chair and recline it all of the way while he's sleeping, the recline position doesn't impede my walking (I'm 5'10 for reference). I have put this stroller through the ringer and have even used it with all 3 kids at the same time (Don't ask!) and I love it. It's very durable. yes, it is perfect.

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.
