Valco Baby - Snap Duo Elite

I’ve had a side by side since day 1, no regrets. I don’t have any help so wanted a pram that I could fold and lift easily myself, and that would fit in the boot of my small car, plus would be suitable from birth to 3. I got a Valco Snap Duo Elite. I didn’t use car capsules - just rearward facing 0-4 infant car seats. I’m all about the least fuss and juggling possible and found this works for me!

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

Highly recommend Valco. I've got twins so I bought the snap duo and it's easy to open/close and light enough for me (I'm only 151cm) to put into/take out of our car. It's also Australian. It was recommended by my sister in law who went through a couple of prams with her kids.

Valco baby snap duo!! Side by side, a lot easier to maneuver than front to back, bassinet attachment, lays nearly flat, narrow enough for standard doorways, easy to fold. I have a 5, 3 and 4 month old and my two oldest sit front to back in one seat on walks a lot lol. Storage isn’t huge but it’s worked well for us

I loved my donkey the first year (so good for pram naps/walks) and then in the second year once I was more comfortable getting out of the house on my own I hated it. Annoying to dismantle and put together every time, plus it was heavy lifting the frame in and out of the car. I got a Valco snap duo to keep in the car for outings and kept the donkey at home just for neighbourhood walks. Also the donkey seats are kind of shallow so people find their kids get too tall for them quite quickly. If you can track down bugaboo buffalo seats they’re a bit deeper. We still do the odd pram nap with the Valco now and it definitely doesn’t steer or push as nicely as the donkey. In those moments I wish I hadn’t sold the donkey.

My front wheel also snapped off my Valco baby snap duo that I’ve been using for over a year (bought used not under warranty) and now I’m without double stroller for my kids, age 1 and age 2. This is not the same issue as the recall from several years ago as the part that broke is on the frame itself so the wheel can’t be snapped into place. I’m super upset about it since I upgraded to the all terrain wheels 6 months ago. Huge loss of money. I’m going to check out the Nuna trvl double since I actually love my trvl single.

Valco snap - one hand all in one fold, lightweight, can upgrade the tyres for off-road. I LOVE mine. Affordable, easy, good quality. Can highly recommend

side by side hands down, i hate stacked strollers tbh i have a valco duo and love it

Side by side, Valco makes amazing ones. All the stacked ones (Vista, mockingbird) are like trying to drive a boat, are nearly impossible to get into a car and require the smaller kid to be on the bottom which is just dumb.

Seconding the valco. I'm in Western MA but in and out of the city often with a giant 3 year old and the Valco is fantastic.

Side by side. Tandems feel like trying to drive a boat and they handle like absolutely garbage. Plus your eldest will be in and out more and that is gonna be a pain cause they have to be the one closer and higher up. Valco is a fantastic side by side brand. Absolutely love mine.

I got a side by side because I tried using the single to double for like a week (Vista) and damn did that thing suck as a double. Steered like a boat, couldn't see my youngest on the bottom and had to practically dismantle the whole thing to get it in my outback. Got a Valco side by side and love that thing so much

Yep I'm using a ring adapter on a Valco with an UPPAbaby car seat and it works great

The valco duo was great even in stores. We lived in a city and used it everywhere. It was big enough to have room for both but narrow enough to fit through pretty much every door and aisle.
