Joovy Caboose Stand-On Tandem Stroller Red Customer Review: Its purpose is marred by failed toddler seat design
Hello -
It looks like more than 150 people have reviewed this stoller already, so I'll keep this brief. Hopefully the engineers at Joovy are reading our feedback here...
I am disappointed in this stroller and am confused why it received such consistently high ranks on Amazon. The truth, I think, is in the reviews that get 3 stars or fewer.
My biggest complaint is that the sitting/standing toddler area is poorly designed. That is, when a car seat is in the front, the rear-facing toddler chair-back has to be pushed down to a roughly 70-degree angle. Our guy can't sit in there. It looks ludicrous.
Worse, when he is sitting in there, two bright red levers are in plain view that invite near-constant pushing. What are they? THE BRAKES! How many times do we walk down a busy sidewalk starting and stopping because those red levers are just too much fun?
I have minor complaints, too, about the "universal" mounting system for the infant car-seat, but I'm sure other people have delved into that already.
Sigh. We spent a lot of $ on this stroller. I have to give it just 2 stars because it fails at its key purpose, which is enabling an infant and a toddler to share a stroller.

Customer Review: LOVE THIS STROLLER!!!!
I absolutely love this stroller! I read all the reviews and did research on a variety of strollers and I definitely picked the best one for us. I have a three year old and one year old and the Joovy is awesome. My three year old loves that he can either sit or "take a ride". One review said that the front seat doesn't lay all the way back and although this is true, it does lean back more than I thought it would. My daughter that is one and rides in the front has taken a nap in there easily but may be difficult for smaller infants. I did not use the infant carrier b/c my little one is bigger but perhaps that is the answer for that issue. Overall, I love this stroller and can't find one thing that I don't like about it. It is very well made, easily to fold, and my new best friend!
