I'm in a nearby country and one thing I might potentially suggest (you can get an infant insert for once they around 2-3 months old) if you guys also bike a lot is getting a bike trailer like the Thule Chariot and using it as a terrain stroller for foresty areas. Where we live this is quite a popular option, many families use it for basic woody and mountain hiking. We have a Thule Chariot Light (double bike trailer) and while my kids are all now too old/outgrown for the stroller it was cool to be able to detach it and use it for things like forest walks, hikes etc..
I had a single for my first and now have an amazing double Thule chariot for the two of them. There was a lot of cheaper second hand stuff on fb market place. I did not plan ahead in that one, and we got the double stroller once we had two kids.
A 5.5 yr and 4 yr old with one more on the way. - City Select with 2 seats is my full stroller/all terrain - Thule Chariot 2 bike stroller/also a hiking stroller - Valco Duo Snap for side by side stroller - GB pockit that's a bit wonky so lives at grandparents as a spare - Babyzen Yoyo got as second hand travel stroller I am planning to use mainly for my new one - All purpose wagon that never intended to be a stroller but they all pile in
I confirm all this to be true. Love the double chariot but we have a second stroller for when we walk elsewhere
Ha! So many. 1. Bumbleride Indie - great all-purpose stroller for walks, jogs, snowy terrain, etc. 2. Mountain Buggy Nano - work horse travel stroller that can technically fit in most overhead bins (though we usually gate check it). Was nice to have when the kids were very small because it can lay flat. Terrible for snow and sand, but survived uneven paving, cobblestones, some mud, etc. I currently use this as a casual every day stroller and leave it in the back of my car. 3. Thule double chariot - for walks and jogs with both kids, especially useful in the winter because the large wheels are good in snow. 4. Summer Infant 3D Lite - bought this on a vacation that we were confident we could do without a stroller. 5. Cheap Red Kite umbrella stroller - another situation where I thought we could get by with a stroller for the big kid and a carrier for the baby, but gave up and bought the cheapest stroller we could find locally. If I could do it again, I'd get one nice jogging stroller (worth it for the maneuverability in rough terrain even if you don't plan on jogging) and then a cheaper, probably second hand umbrella stroller for casual use and short outings.
I love my thule chariot double stroller with infant insert. It doesn't work for carseats but it's GREAT for 2 under 2. My toddler hangs out in there longer than our regular stroller bc it feels like a little club house.. it's lighter than the vista, has nice storage attached..it handles gravel trails and can be a jogging stroller/ bike attachment or cross country ski attachment. For grocery runs I'd just get a cheap double off marketplace that can hold a chico
Thule chariot with infant insert! I baby wore the first 3 months of my baby's life but now feel comfortable for my baby and toddler to ride next to each other I got mine off marketplace
I LOVE my thule chariot for our lifestyle. We are outdoorsy people and go on flat nature trails or paved paths all the time. I couldn't lift it until 3 months PP to get it in and out of the trunk because its a little heavy but it is SO nice. Great for snow on the ground or gravel. Can be used as a bike chariot or stroller. The infant sling is an additional $100 Price is up there but I got it for $500 off marketplace. It takes up a big portion of our mini van trunk. I couldn't imagine using it for errands because it is pretty wide.
