Why, it's a Dorel twin stroller, of course.

cookie123 · Apr 10, 2010

It's an Eddie Bauer twin umbrella stroller. I kinda liked how it was, but never had one.

Judi · Apr 10, 2010

Target carried it. About $90, iirc. Pushed pretty nice. Looks like it is missing the sunshade.

bobandjess99 · Apr 10, 2010

okay thanks, with enough keywords, I was able to google it.
Huh...it gets really good reviews from some people at some places, and somewhat poor reviews from otyher people at other places.
I love when you get conflicting info.. "pushes like a dream" "doesn't push at all"
*sigh*

I really want a smaller double stroller. Something light and easy and this looks a lot like what I was picturing in my mind.

An Aurora · Apr 10, 2010

Eh, it's a Dorel, so it's definitley not going to push like a dream. BRU has some lighweight doubles that I didn't think were too bad.

Judi · Apr 10, 2010

I pushes better than the two ways dorel made.

*hates that there is no perfect strtoller for her kids, and gets out the hammer, wood, nails, cloth, metal beams and proceceds to build her dream stroller*

That one looks old, the newer version is called the Transit Tandem. I have seem them still carried locally at some Sears stores.

It's not too terrible. It works best with light kids. I has one when I worked as a nanny when DS was a baby. He and my charge were 3wks apart, and under a year at the time. Once you get a 30lb kid in either seat, you're going to want something else.

I have one. I definately fills a specific niche. I have it because no other double will fit behind the rear seat of my van. I like it, but I only use it when I need to take two little ones in somewhere for a short time. It is not a walk very far stroller. Definately for smaller kiddos. Bigger kids don't fit in the back well, and if you put them in the front, it is harder(not impossible though) to push. My friend borrowed it and hated it. She is taller than me though and has a hard time pushing many different strollers.

tried the Eddie Bauer Transit Tandem at Target when my boys were 15mths and 3mths old. It was harder than the Graco Duoglider. Dorel made the stroller for Eddie Bauer. Its also called the Safety 1st Transit Tandem SF Stroller

"Lightweight" to me would mean two umbrella strollers hitched with the plastic stroller connectors.
Did you know they make connectors? I just figured it out...

SusanMae · Apr 11, 2010

I've seen something very similar to that in sears.

Have you looked at the Jeep double?

MANDY1234 · Apr 11, 2010

extremely light weight, folds super small (compared to a regular double) heck I could fit this AND a full size single stroller AND grocieries into the trunk of my Kia Spectra

I loved it...besides 2 things. the basket sucked, was small and you had to access it in a weird way. and then then my ODD would get mad about sitting in the back. She couldn't see anything lol I used it for ODD and MDD (15 months apart

I'm not a stroller girl so I gave it to a twin mommy...

Are you thinking of doing this? I thought it would be a great idea until I mentioned it on here. The consensus was that they will push terribly and will be wider than a regular side-by-side. :twocents:

There's a Mac Twin Traveller on craigslist http://swmi.craigslist.org/bab/1657820047.html
I've been thinking about it.

ntrenary · Apr 11, 2010

I had a Twin Traveller a few years ago and loved it!! I brought it on vacation with us when my kids were 3 and 5 and still had no problem pushing it. I hated to sell that stroller, but I wasn't planning to need it again, so i had to let it go.

I would highly recommend it! Plus it has great resale value.

Kat_Momof3 · Apr 11, 2010

it is the Transit Tandem... not a bad stroller at all.

oh..that's just...MEAN to toy with me that way!!!lol

Must.....resiist.....

I wish i could get a SBS, there are so many nicee options that push like a dream.....but a full 50% of what I need the strtoller for is shopping/mall/stores, and so it REALLY has to be a front-back style tandem, because you can NOT fit SBS strollers through the aisles in the local stores.

And my sit and stand is just so big and heavy and pushes terribly.

firemomof3 · Apr 11, 2010

I had that stroller for a while. I liked how compact it was and it folded up easy & narrow. It pushed fine with lightweight kids and it steered OK. For the price I really liked it. Here it is folded in the back of my old 03 Kia Sedona
