I will have an 18 month old and a newborn in July. Is there a back seat for this that has a buckle or is it just the little plastic seat?

Plastic seat with a buckle. The child that sits in the back will face whomever is pushing stroller.

Its a platform with straps. Your 18 mOnth old will be able to sit and be strapped in but it's not like a full seat... Just a flat surface. I like that the stroller is not as large as other doubles but two things I don't like are that if you recline the front seat for the smaller baby, it doesn't leave much room for the older baby in the back. Also, the basket underneath is kind of difficult to get in and out of.

I bought this for my 2 1/2 year old daughter and newborn son. While I think it's a great stroller, I think my daughter would have appreciated an actual seat. She still likes to take the occasional nap, and when we're on the go, there's no way she can nap on the bench. The seatbelt is ok for the bench, not the best, but it works. When you have an infant carseat though, it actually sticks out past the back of the seat and hangs slightly over the bench, which means it does get uncomfortable for the child sitting on the bench. An 18 month old would be too small to stand at that point, especially since the handles are too high for younger children to hold on to, so they would have to sit and be a bit uncomfortable. I think it would work perfectly for slightly older kids but not for younger ones, and especially in your case when they'll only be a year and a half apart.

It has a little plastic seat with a belt... But what I recommend you to do us buy a compatible carseat for the newborn and let the 18 month old in the front. Once the baby is 3-4 months old, he or she can ride in the front and the oldest in the little chair. I completely recommend this stroller. This was the only double stroller that would fold up small

not gonna work for you most likely. its a great stroller, but the back seat is more a bench with a seatbelt, not really what a 18 month old can handle

There is a three way buckle to strap a child into seat behind the infant, but as some of the others have said, it might not fit an 18 month old. My wife and I use it tons, but we have a 5 month old and a 3 year old which is probably a better span for the stroller.

My 13 month old can sit on the little bench when buckled, but she did start walking before a year. She enjoys sitting wear her big sister normally sits!

The back seat is a little plastic bench but it does have a strap with a buckle. I began using this stroller with my 3 yr. old and 18 month old, but the 18 month old sits in the front. I would think you might get a better fit from the other Graco models where you can have 2 actual seats and remove one later as your children grow. I will say, I love the ease of manuverability and fold up of this compared to the BabyTrend and Joovy I had in the past.

It's a plastic half circle buckle that you have to thread the nylon strap through and then back out. My 2 year old can't do it, but hasn't really cared. The seat is pretty deep and she can have multiple dolls in it at a time without them falling out.

You have the option of either seatbelt or latch.. We really love these car seats!

No buckle, just an elastic band that slips over the seats.. I have bought 2 seats for family members and they love them.. Great product...

I assume you mean car seat. Yes. It has a adjustable strap that feeds into a plastic buckle.

No, there is not. My son is 11 months and we bought this for his sitter and grandmother to have in their cars. It serves it's purpose for quick trips around town for them, but I would not buy it for a child smaller than 6 months as there is no head support or cushion. It is very basic but has a good safety rating. For our family car my son has a much nicer Graco. It came with several head cushion options to add or subtract to the seat. On that note, the Graco takes up a lot of space in my Envoy. This car seat is smaller and fits in my husbands extended cab truck that only has a bench seat.

My older one yes, my baby is now a year and loves reclining. I just hang a car seat toy off one of the buckles and she does great.

I haven't tried to install an infant seat, but there aren't any latches to make it secure. Chicco does however have a double stroller.

Not exactly same system. It doesn't have any plastic piece back of the seat. There are holes and just get through straps into them. But it is easly removable and washable. Now, My son is 20 months old. I'm using it more than s year. I am very satisfied with it.

There is no latch system. When your child isn't in the seat, you can still use the seat belt to "buckle" the seat in so it doesn't become a projectile if you're in an accident.

It is designed for 2 young children. There are 2 sets of safety harnesses so each child is buckled in. The same harness is designed so that 1 child can sit in the middle alone.

Yes...I just purchased this and I have a newborn and a child that is about to turn 4. My child wants to sit in the front the majority of the time but there is the option to buckle to a jump seat type area if we had it set up where she stood in the back...I will say this was the only combo stroller that had many different options and was light in comparison to Gracco or Chico brands

Yes, there are Velcro closure slits for the seat belt buckle. It's been quite a few years since I've had to use a car seat but I know the belt buckle and belts are available. Seat latch anchors.....not sure what that is

The DLX has SLIGHTLY more padding. Don't forget there is a recall on this seat- the buckle is hard to undo if your kid drops/spills something sticky on it. Although I keep forgetting to order one, you can get a new buckle. My kid spilled juice and it sucks to open now but I'd still buy the seat again. It's a great one.

There is a fabric strip in the middle that keeps the baby from sliding down; however, there is no strap. If baby is able stand this seat would not be for him/her. This is a supportive seat similar to the Bumbo.

There is only a lap belt for the baby. It is very sturdy, and she will fit in there snuggly, but I would wait until she can sit up herself. That usually happens around 6 months, so it won't be long now. I would wait, because there is no shoulder strap. Once she can sit up independently, she will be able to use it for a long time afterward. You can even use it as a booster seat when she is a toddler.

No seatbelt. But if child can sit up, its pretty safe. Door has a latch lock, there is a floor which is removable as child grows, and they are surrounded on all sides. My 18 month grandson loves his "truck" :)
