Thule - Chariot Sport 2

Same here, wife wanted (and obviously got) a Maxicosi to match the capsule for the first stroller, nice and compact, easy to fold but I took it for one semi-offroad adventure and went straight out and found a Mountain Buggy Terrain with suspension. Yes it's big and kinda heavy but I have a ute and I'm kinda strong. I took him a stack of places with it where I would have just destroyed the compact one. I ended up preferring it for shopping as it carried way more stuff/weight and it could spin in a circle so very easy to manoeuvre. We've now upgraded to a Thule Chariot Sport for the off road stuff and a Larktale Caravan wagon for everything else. He loves the wagon and it's rated to 90kg so we can put him in one side and all the shopping in the other. Compact strollers have their place but definitely not for everyone!

Puh, am Ende entscheidet das Baby. Am Ende akzeptiert es nur ne Trage. Also nicht überdenken. Wenn's was für's Grobe sein soll, kauf einen Thule Chariot Sport mit Babyhängematte und mach Schwalbe Marathons, Big Apple o.Ä. 20" Schlappen drauf

For the stroller, I spent about $2000 on a Thule chariot sport (including accessories) because I was training for an ultra-marathon when my oldest was a baby. I've hauled it up mountains, and pulled it behind my bike for hundreds of kilometers. No regrets on that purchase, but for the stroller that I push through the grocery store, and around the block with the dog, I use the cheapest one I can find that the car seat drops into (a Graco). Both strollers are just right for their use cases, and I don't see a lot of use for a stroller that occupies a middle ground between the two, but your usage patterns may differ.

I have owned both a single and double Chariot, and still run with the single. I love them. Hands down, best child related purchase(s) I've ever made.

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

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

And yes, as other have mentioned: a running stroller (we have the Thule Chariot).

I said I would never have more than one and we ended up with 5… we have the Ridge Jogger, it was too big to travel so got the Minu for our trunk. Then got a chariot for the bike which came with a jogging wheel. Then a second baby came along so we got a double chariot. Purchased a wagon as well but felt the chariot served the purposes so sold it. So we still have 4 🫣.

I have/had: Baby Jogger City Mini GT (hated, disintegrated after 18 months, will never recommend ever), replaced with Uppababy Vista (love it, it’s my workhorse, wish I’d bought it from the beginning), then had a Summer Infant 3D lite for an umbrella (hated, eventually sold), replaced with an Uppababy Minu V2 (loved it, replaced with V3 which I got specifically for the airplane overhead option, and in some ways slightly prefer the V2), and a Thule Chariot double (amazing for all the biking we do). Got the Vista when my son was 18 months old and he’s now 7.5 lol

We mostly bike, but our Chariot has thousands of km's on it over the last 6 and a bit years, and is in fantastic shape still. We also got a double right off the bat, even though we didn't know if we were going to have a second or not, but the extra room and storage is awesome. Haven't done much running with it at this point, but probably will here shortly as I just picked up running again in the last couple months and want to get outside now that it's warming up
