Graco DuoGlider LX Stroller in Fortune

Graco DuoGlider LX Stroller in Fortune Life is busy and complicated enough when you have two small children: but with the Graco DuoGlider LX Double Stroller (Fortune) at least getting around is made a whole lot easier. This easy-to-use stroller is built to carry two children in comfortable style--and it includes plenty of great accessories and features to make mom and dad happy, too.

The Graco DuoGlider LX Double Stroller (Fortune) offers:
  • Two seats carries a toddler and an infant.
  • Three- and five-point harness ensures security.
  • Built-in snack tray with beverage holder.
  • Just 20-inches wide for easy maneuverability.


Both seats feature a multi-position recline function. View larger.
A Stroller Built for Two
This versatile stroller has two seats that are ideal for use with a toddler and an infant, or even with twins. With the seats positioned in tandem, the rear seat rides higher so both children have a great view of the action. Both seats are compatible with the Graco SnugRide and Graco SafeSeat Infant Car Seats: simply snap your car seats from your vehicle into the stroller and go. Seat the kids directly into the forward-facing seats from the time they can sit up (around 6 months of age) until they reach up to 40 pounds in weight--so even when your children outgrow their infant car seats, you still can use the stroller for years to come.

Each stroller seat is equipped with a three- and five-point harness, an adjustable canopy to shield the kids from sun and rain, and a handy snack tray with a beverage holder. Both seats feature a multi-position recline function, and the back seat can fold down flat to accommodate a napping child.

Convenient, Easy Operation for Parents
Double strollers can be bulky, making them difficult to push and to load into your car. But the Graco DuoGlider LX is just 20 inches wide, making it easy to maneuver through doorways. Its lightweight construction makes the stroller easier to maneuver, as do the lockable swivel front wheels with suspension. And when you're done with your walk, the stroller's one-handed fold-and-latch mechanism easily collapses the stroller. The stroller includes a drop-down basket that offers easy access to your gear, even when the back seat is fully reclined; and the parent storage tray includes a convenient cup holder.

About Graco
In 1942, Russell Gray and Robert Cone formed Graco Metal Products, in Philadelphia, PA. For 11 years, the firm fabricated machine and car parts for local manufacturers. In 1953, Gray left the firm, leaving Cone as sole owner. Cone decided to manufacture his own line of products, but had trouble coming up with ideas. Enter David Saint, an engineer, tinkerer, and stained glass artisan who worked for Graco. Saint, himself a father of nine, was intrigued when an associate told him how his wife would soothe their tired and cranky baby while swinging in a backyard glider swing. Acting on this inspiration, he went to the drawing board and 18 months of hard work later, the world's first wind-up infant swing, the Graco Swyngomatic, was born. Graco sold millions of Swyngomatics in the coming years, becoming one of the world's leading manufacturers of juvenile products in the process. Today, Graco is a Newell Rubbermaid company, with 1500 associates worldwide. While a half-century has brought many changes to Graco, their dedication and commitment to designing and manufacturing top-quality products remains, and continues on.

Customer Review: loved it! kids loved it!
I have a 4 and a 2 year old and they both loved it! the bottom tray fits a lot of stuff! and even though the front seat wont recline completely, as te rear one does, it does lean back enough for the child to sleep comfortably. this strolelr survived Disney and several airpor trips. had a little trouble closing it because of the front hood, but we got the hang of it! it's not as heavy as I thought it would be, and the girls loved it! both trays have a cup holder, plus a cup holder for mom plus a storage bin that fits the cellphone perfectly! minimum assembly requred (just the tires and trays)This one's a keeper!
Customer Review: Graco DuoGloder Stroller
We have an 8 month old and a 2 week old infant and after doing extensive research, we determined that this was the best stroller for us. We needed our 8 month old to be able to sit in front and the back seat to hold an infant carrier. We are very happy with the design and style of the stroller and their is a large basket underneath for storage. It meets all of our needs and was the most reasonably priced of the double strollers. Now, after using it on several different occasions, we can't imagine how you would get around easily with a side by side double stroller. It is also very easy to fold up and unfold.

Protect-a-Bub Stroller Rain Cover- Black

Protect-a-Bub Stroller Rain Cover- Black Protect-a-Bub manufactures sunshades for all sizes of strollers, joggers and car seats. Our sunshades are made from a specially woven 50+UPF rated breathable fabric, providing 98+% protection from the sun's rays and full air circulation. Our sunshades are available in canopy or full coverage styles. The Cancer Council Australia recommends all Protect-a-Bub Sunshades. Far superior to plastic rain covers on the market today, the Protect-a-Bub Rain Cover is made from waterproof polyester which, unlike plastic, will not crack over time or easily fly off the stroller or jogger. One rain cover fits both strollers and joggers. Comes in both Navy and Black.
Customer Review: Works great, seals well
I have to start by saying I've only used this product twice. I am not an avid jogger and seldom decide to go for a long stroll with my little one in the rain.



Despite that, this cover does what it should. I have schwin jogging stroller and this cover worked great on it. From what I can tell, it is completely adjustable and should work on ANY single jogging stroller. It draws closed well, has a back flap for further securing it to the back legs and folds well for storage in the under-pouch of my jogger. Good price, good product, does what it needs to do.



As an aside, I did a lot of research before purchasing a cover, online and in stores. This one was the best quality and most flexible as far as what it would fit on and I have no complaints whatsoever.
Customer Review: easy to use
I got caught in a rain storm at a parade and I just pulled this out of the little sack holder it comes in which I had tied to the handle of the stroller and in less than a minute I was able to cover the stroller. It was pouring rain and my baby was snug and dry in his stroller while I was soaking wet.

Customer Review: Good Stroller
The Jeep stroller is a really easy to use and set-up stroller!! If you are looking for one just to run around with instead of the bulky big strollers then this is a good choice. I love the way it rides, the wheels are great not sticky like most umbrealla strollers. The one thing I would want different is the sun shade, I wish that was bigger and that there was a bigger space to hold things. I would recommend this one because it is not "cheap" like alot of others its size.
Customer Review: Good travel and everyday stroller
I bought this to go to Disney with. It worked great. I did end up drapping a blanket over the conopy to provide more sun coverage, but it steers great and is light and fits in my trunk which was a great plus when we got home.

Joovy Caboose Stand-On Tandem Stroller Red

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!

BOB Handlebar Console For Duallie Strollers Black

BOB Handlebar Console For Duallie Strollers Black The Handlebar Console provides strollers with two water-bottle/beverage holders along with a zippered storage compartment for keys, cell phones, wallets, and other items. Made from "rip-stop polyester," our Handlebar Console attaches easily and securely with four Velcro straps to any BOB Double Stroller. Most parents like ready access to food, water/drinks, and cell phones, so our console accessory keeps all of these things conveniently available. Compatible only with BOB Twin Strollers. Color: Black. 22" x 4" X 5".
Customer Review: Does the job!
The attachment goes on easily - it is flat so it doesn't interfere with the collapsing of the stroller. It is a bit expensive for what it is - and honestly for what I paid for the stroller - it could have come with it - doesn't water seem needed for a jogger?



Anyway - it makes my life much easier - and I like the zippered compartment for my keys and a burp cloth. :)
Customer Review: love it! super handy!
This is a great product. I have to carry lots of different things when I take walks in my double job stroller and this holds a lot of stuff. Very handy and I'm glad I bought it.

Combi Flare Lightweight Stroller in Wasabi

Combi Flare Lightweight Stroller in Wasabi Lightweight and portable lifestyle stroller Quick and simple tri-fold Opens easily with one hand Deep recline will accommodate an infant Adjustable canopy Basket with easy access Convenient carrying strap for traveling 3-Point harness Removable guardrail Front swivel wheels for easy maneuvering Front-wheel suspension system Convenient footrest for toddler comfort Compatible with Shuttle Infant Seat Taller handle than previous Combi strollers. Removable Cup Holder
Customer Review: UNSAFE! Never buy Combi. Cheaply made, tiny plastic wheels
This stroller won't go over a tiny bump in the road without jolting your child around like crazy. Worse than that, when I was crossing a very busy street recently, the stroller, with the car seat attached and "locked in" actually FLIPPED OVER, and the "locked" care seat came flying out, with my baby inside. Miraculously, he came through unscathed, but I was a sobbing mess for days!! I immediately contacted COMBI and explained what happened. Now the retailer was willing to refund my money right away, but thinking this was a possible "recall" issue, I sent my items to COMBI, expecting a refund, but also hoping for some serious investigating and some sympathy. They were passive and unresponsive, and in the end decided that I damaged the stroller somehow and that it the explanation for the incident. If I weren't a very busy new and working mother, I would take great pleasure in suing the pants off of this company.
Customer Review: Same product at BabyRUs better!!!!
I bought this product on Amazon.com thinking I would get the same product for cheaper but really I got the cheapest version of the stroller! I wish I would have spent a few more dollars and got the good version. It also came with an order form to order the extra accecories and it would cost me another 50 dollars plus shipping and handling, I would 've spent 20 dollars if I purchased from BabyRUs!!!

Stroller Hooks

Stroller Hooks These hooks can be attached to any stroller to hold shopping bags or a diaper bag. They can also be attached to a wheelchair to carry bags. They are black and brand new in package.
Customer Review: Turn your stroller into SUV
What can I say ?

Simple and brilliant - how can we go to the supermarket with a baby without this thingy ???




Customer Review: These stroller hooks are amazing and strong
I bought these hooks after being very frustrated with some junky hooks that kept breaking on me. I then tried a metal hooks but that was a pain because I had to open it in order to get my bags on and off. I tried this one next and love it so far. It is strong and holds alot. It also has an adjustable velcro so it fits all three of my strollers. I love it!!!
