I have A newborn and a 4 year old. I prefer not to get a double stroller. Can a 4 year old comfortably stand on the back bar?

I don't have the board but looking at the adjustable handle bar i think your 4 year old would be fine.

On the bar of the stroller? I don't a have a second child so I'm not sure. However I do know baby jogger makes a glider board you can attach to the back for that.

No way! Bar too low and angled under seat whereas handle comes out further back then bar.

not designed for that, too dangerous. Don't do it. And I also think it might broke

When the infant car seat is installed that seat is slightly reclined which prevent a toddler from fully sitting on the bench seat. That said, my 2yr old 36inches and 34 pounds can sit reasonably comfortably on the bench seat. He likes to alternate between standing and sitting so its fine for errands and short trips and walks. I would still highly recommend this stroller. For the price, the features are great, fairly lightweight, easy to maneover and works great as single when shopping.

I know that it seems that most people do not keep their children rear facing until at least 40 pounds, but in actuality extended rear facing is much, much, much safer for your child. Other countries keep children rear facing until age four and have much lower rates of child mortality in car crashes. Should you be interested in extended rear facing, I would check out the Diano Radian and the Clek Foonf. If your child is not tall, the Britax Advocate is another great choice. If you are set on turning your son around, I will say that we have this seat and absolutely love it. We use it for our almost 6 year old daughter and she is very comfortable in it. The seat installs like a dream and is very solid. It's heavy though, so I wouldn't choose it if you need to move it a lot. Hope this helps!

This stroller would be suitable for a newborn with use of the car seat adapter for bassinet attachment. The back of the stroller seat does lay down pretty far back, however a completely flat surface is recommended for a newborn.

I think the instructions said not to use the seats until the baby is like 6 months old. However, because it reclines into an almost flat position I feel you can use it on a younger child. 1 month & 10 lbs. is probably a little small... But once they are like 4 months old it's probably okay as long as the straps can be adjusted tight enough to safely hold the baby in the stroller. For a 1 month old I'd recommend using the bassinet add on or buy the car seat adapter to use that on your stroller until your baby is a bit bigger. I hope this helps!

I just got this stroller last weekend . My daughters bitty baby fits perfect in it. You could squeeze two in the bassinet position face-in each other . But I would say not really.

Hi - My twins are 7 months so not standing up yet, but it does seem pretty sturdy. It is also pretty big - so I doubt your 1 year old would be able to tip over. We love this thing by the way. It is super easy to set up and looks okay too. Kelly

It might get small pretty quickly. If you older child always sits in the back it might last a bit longer but sometimes my youngest wanted to sit in the back and the front was too small for my oldest. At the time we had this stroller I had a 4 and 1 year old I now have a joovy too ultralight. That is working out for us kids are now 5.5 and 2.5.

No. That was my biggest concern as well. We have a 3.5 yr old and 18mo old and they usually battle over who gets the bottom! My only con to this stroller that we've found is that when there is a child on the bottom out diaper bag seems to often bump them. Otherwise pretty perfect double.

I'dgo for the younger one in the back. The tray set up is more conducive to the older in the front. I have twins so they alternate!

Both the seat and the handle bar adjust. This is a very well made and sturdy stroller. However, since the front wheels swivel so easily, a very small child (under18months) might not be able to control it well. Perfect for 18 months plus.

I wouldn't think this would be a good one for a baby that can't support their head yet. It's a nice stroller when they get a little older unless you live in the country then it sucks and it's hard to turn and jog with.

I personally wouldn't use this stroller until the newborn or infant had pretty good head control. I started using this when my baby was about 5 months and around 17 lbs. But he is a bigger baby!

Children are very flexible so their legs wouldn't be "too long" for years. My 26 month old is still rear facing and loves to flop her legs all over the place. We don't plan on turning her around anytime soon. I have some friends that are still rear facing their almost 4 year olds. Their skeletons are still forming and solidifying.

Not at all. It was an absolutely crap stroller. My toddler kept falling out the front seat as there wasn't enough bum space for him and his feet dragged along the ground because the foot rest was basically under his bum. And the back seat is no good for any child under the age of 12 months. Absolutely ridiculous stroller. Your better off investing in baby carriers.

I'd definitely consider getting this in your situation. I have a 4 year old, 2 year old and 6 month old. I love having the option to put them all in the stroller, especially if I need to make sure they stay close. A lot of times, my 4 year old likes riding on it with his brothers. I have the infant seat adapter, so I've had the baby in it since the beginning. It is big, but it really is a great stroller!

Yes, he started using it at 3 years old and continued using it until 6. We used it for long outings, I'd say he was able to stand AT LEAST for 30 minutes at a time. The foot area is roomy, even now at 7 he can stand in it, though we don't use it anymore. It's very easy to maneuver the stroller and the angled edge means you don't kick the board when pushing it (I have another board for another stroller and we prefer this one by a long shot).
