Safety 1st Transit Tandem??

Does anyone know anything about this stroller?

I need a compact double stroller for vacations and trips to the mall. I have a 2-door Cavalier, so it definitely has to fold small! Since it will be used to vacations, I want the stroller to fit in smaller aisles, if that's even possible. My boys are currently 23.5 months and 7.5 months.

If anyone has any other recommendations, that would be great. I don't want to spend more than $150.

I bought this stroller for a trip to the UK last year. It is bloody heavy! Not something you just throw in the trunk! It does fold up pretty compactly though.

Steering it is also an issue, although I see your older child is almost a year younger than mine was when we used it (so probably not as heavy which might make a difference). And while I never had problems with it in malls etc, it was pretty difficult to manoeuvre on the streets, up and down kerbs etc.

I sold it as soon as we got back from our trip! I knew I'd never use it again!

The stroller you mentioned has a 2 out of 5 star rating at Target. Two possibilities: Basic lightweight (http://www.specialtybaby.com/kojewrtwspal.html) for $80, and a full featured, everything you'd want from an umbrella double (http://www.specialtybaby.com/kilispdostls1.html), but a brand I didn't know made strollers for $140.

Hi, I have this stroller. I purchased it at Babyage. It is not great for street walking but is great for the mall. It may work better with the smaller child in the front and the larger one in the back. I babysit another child and use it. Karley is almost 17 months and Haley is 8 months. I put Karley in the front and Haley in the back. It is great for us to use when we go to Walmart as I can't get both into a shopping cart. It does fold compact. Goes easily through doors. I have a HUGE Peg Perego Triplette with the big fixed spoke wheels for our everyday walks. It is totally not practical for store use but is great for walks. I bought that used off of Ebay.

Thank you for your input!

I have one too and while I don't think it's the *best* it definately does it's job well.
My girls are 3 and 9 months. I've been using it since the baby was about 10 weeks (with a snuzzler..she's sturdy:) ). At first the steering was great then it started to get a little harder and the wheels got a little squeeky so I called
Cosco and they sent me new wheels and I lubed it up good with pledge and now it's fine. We just use it as a quick trip stroller now so I usually put the baby in the front seat and that helps alot.

I have a Taurus and it fits with lots of room to spare in my trunk. I'm secretly
hoping it'll die soon and I can get the new version that Albee baby carries, I like the pattern better than my Target version:p .

HTH!
