Does anyone find themselves kicking or hitting the infant carrier with their feet/legs when they push the stroller due to the positioning?(I'm 5'10'')

yes I do it all the time. I try to angle the handle to get the stroller as far from my body as possible but I still hit it with my shin. and using the adapter have the face me just makes it worse. I did put the infant seat on top and toddler on bottom which worked a little better but my toddler was not happy.

Yes! I'm 5'3 ... You just have to push the stroller with your arms all the way extended... Kind of annoying but I still love the stroller

I am your 5'9" in height and I don't necessarily kick the infant carrier, but I do have to remain more mindful of its outward and protruding presence. That being said its not a big deal to me.

I did the first two times but as I became more used to position of the seat I found that I haven't kicked it since. I'm much shorter than you though (5" 3') I really love this set up though!

My husband is 6'3'' and he is very comfortable pushing this stroller. We love it!

My toddler feet rested in the footrest until about 5 (plus he was too tall to fit under the canopy). I think it is more comfortable than my other double stroller, at least for them, since they have more space to rest their feet. I can't think of a time when their feet interfered with the wheels however I can remember plenty of times with my other stroller.

In the middle of the handle there is a thing with buttons on it. Put your hand there and while pressing the buttons with your hand, move the thing towards the stroller, push down with pressure from the hand. It is a pain.

Lol! I hadn't noticed but I feel like my baby was completely safe when she was smaller. She is 14 months now and I have been using it since she was 9 months about 3 days a week. She can climb out of it now and it tips so maybe that's why? Sorry I couldn't be more help.

YES! It's totally annoying. I assembled it correctly. The only solutions are A) lock the wheels--but then it's practically impossible to control/maneuver the stroller or B) add more weight to the front of the stroller-or have your dog sit near the front, or C) add another dog to your stroller. All options are out for me, and probably you, too. So, my last resort was to put a thicker crate pad down to absorb the shakiness so my dog won't be as annoyed as I am!!

We just installed it this last weekend! It doesn't impact our 2yo at all! You're supposed to slid the car seat into the center of the stroller when the older sibling isn't riding and I think that might be the position it's in in the picture. So far we're happy with it. The car seat does "bounce" some which takes some getting used to, I triple checked that the base was on there securely when I saw it bouncing :) and it does sit "out there" some, but everyone seems happy with the set up! Hope this helps!

Yes, it was an issue and unless you buy the tray there is nothing for the child to hold onto in order to sit upright. I got rid of this stroller and ordered Graco - much more functional for a busy family on the run!

Hi, are you talking about the top seat or the bottom seat? I have found that sometimes you have to give the top seat a little wiggle for it recline down and back up. Once you get the hang of it though, not a big issue. Overall, I love the stroller- we travel all around the world with it. Hope this helps!

Dear Michael,I bought the stroller in November 2013, but my baby is not yet born. But from what I saw, not recommend for newborns because the back is still high for them.I hope I have helped.Claubert

May not be the best for tall people. I am 5' 8" and I feel like I am leaning fwd while pushing the stroller.

I was wondering the handle comfort between the two? I have a standard umbrella stroller and other then the stroller being too short..the handles hurt my hands. But that could be because it's not the easiest to push.

Mine's in my car so I can't measure (snowed in) but I'm 5' 11" and I have to stoop a bit to push it when it is set at its highest height. This is my 3d walker (one broke and I use one in the house) and one of my pet peeves is that this is true of all of them. What if I were 6' 4"? Maybe you have to special order them to get a taller one?

I am 5'4" and have an ergo baby carrier. This is a great question to ask. The carrier fits my husband who is 5'8" much better than it fits me. At my height, it sits very low on the hips, which I like because it helps equally distribute baby weight over the entire back. This is the reason I bought the carrier. It does a fantastic job of distributing weight across mom or dad's body. I also find it very safe as I am very clumsy and worry about falling with baby. I would def try it out before investing the $$$. For me, I regret this purchase. 1. My baby is very hot natured and gets too hot being next to me. 2. The newborn insert makes the carrier way too bulky for me. 3. This is designed for average or thin adults. This is not designed for large busted women or overweight women. There is not enough room for all of mom and a baby too. 4. My baby is small and not yet able to completely straddle me, so he does not sit comfortably. At 7 months, I am getting a frame backpack carrier for general toting around. I had one with his brother and he loved it. Plus it solves all of the above issues. I knew better but I wanted the closeness the Ergo provided. Good luck!

I have the push up as far as my model allows. My husband is 6'3" and while it does seem lower than the average stroller he hasn't had any trouble with it. The new models may have longer bars or extenders I haven't checked. We love this stroller though! The peanut bassinet was wonderful when our baby was tiny. We have 5 kids so this system is by far our favorite over the monster strollers we had previously. It maneuvers so nicely through amusement park crowds and stores. Your height may make you feel a bit like you are pushing a toy around at first but my husband definitely isn't stooped over or uncomfortable when pushing baby around. Best of luck!

Yes and Yes.I actually found it annoying attached to the bed because I had to crawl to the foot of my bed to get out. I also found that I needed to sit up with my legs off the bed to have the leverage to lift the baby into my bed. It was too awkward to reach over while lying down.So I used it as a bassinette but it's size made it really portable for holidays or RV camping and height made it easier to lay the sleeping baby down as opposed to a pack n play where you have to reach down to the ground.

I am 5'9" and if I get carried away (start walking very briskly) I occasionally kick the back wheel bar. The handle bar is at a comfortable level for me, and 99% of the time (as long as I'm not power-walking) it pushes smoothly without interference. I do not have to lean over or shorten my stride excessively for this stroller. It's not really a power-walking kind of stroller anyhow.
