Can a toddler sit on the foot area if there is a baby in the stroller? Obviously not for going for a walk. I see people doing this w the Bob.

There is room for it but the front wheel has a shock in it and a bigger kid can compress the footwell into the wheel if they sit there. So it is not as versatile as the bob in that way. We used to have a bob and I was used to doing that with the bob, tried it with this stroller initially but I don't think it's good for the stroller. :-( It beats the bob in a lot of other ways, though

Yes, my daughter does it sometimes. If I'm not mistaken this stroller can hold up to 70 lbs kid

Just make sure not to lay the stroller sideway when folded because it deforms the wheels

They could probably sit there if the stroller was sitting still. A big toddler couldn't. I definitely wouldn't recommend when the stroller is moving.

I know you can, as that was my plan with the second. My concern I how close the handle bar would be which would require the child to stand behind the bar rather than in front of the bar like other strollers (uppa vista and city select). This makes it awkward to walk behind and takes away from much of the storage - console and hanging on the back of the stroller which is a problem due to the small basket size. For these reasons I opted or a different model (b-ready) to use with two children.

No. The walker would not be level and the baby/toddler would be leaning forward. Unfortunately, the wheels don't lock to make it stationary. Maybe someone will make that suggestion to the manufacturer!

Once baby can sit up well you can think about making the switch. Babies vary so much in size and it is really more of a developmental issue. You could of course "prop" your baby, but if things start shifting, while you are jogging, you won't have a happy baby anymore. As a car-seat, the limitations are: 32" or 35 pounds, which ever comes first. But this is for crash safety, which shouldn't be a problem for stroller use, as long as your baby is comfortable. Hope this helps you sort it out. ENJOY your baby!

I browsed their book, didn't find minimum only maximum(40 inches/50lbs). We switched to the toddler seat as soon as our boy could seat well without support( 7 month old) he was 26 inches tall then, he's almost 9 now and it looks like he can grow and grow and the stroller won't ever get small. I don't find the toddler seat very comfy btw, and I doubt my baby enjoys it (((( We chose this one only coz it comes with a bassinet.

A baby who can sit up independently can sit in the stroller without the car seat. Smaller babies can still ride lying down by putting the stroller in bassinet mode.

If you put in an infant insert and don't run with it, just using it for walking gently, then it is a great stroller for that age. I had my daughter in it at 8 weeks and she was fine.

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 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!

You could but make sure you buy those extra pad or neck supports to keep the baby from moving. Make sure to keep it reclined. My recommendation would be to get the infant carrier adapter use the infant carrier on the stroller. The stroller is awesome as far as maneuvering. Great stroller.

If you're asking if it's possible to use the stroller for two passengers, it's not. There's not enough room to use the seat if the car seat it's attached

Your child can sit upright or it lays down flat for a small baby. We have 4 children and 2 bumbleride indie twin strollers and we absolutely love them!

Hi Epic Girl: Regarding your question about the stroller. I tried putting a step stool which made my height to 5'10" tall. It was easy as far reaching the handle(the handle level is quite high) to push the stroller. I don't quite understand what you meant by kicking the stroller - at a guess I don't think you would be kicking the back side of the stroller because of the way it's designed. Otherwise, I must say it's a sturdy stroller - a bit bulky but very well constructed. I hope my response helps.

If I had a 5 lb baby, he would be in a wrap or a sling, not a stroller:)! More work to push the stroller than to just carry the kid!

i have a boy and a girl and i own the countours tandem stroller and i love it i never go anywhere with out it... ohh and have i said my boy was 11 1/2 months old when my baby girl was born??? he didnt walk or anything ..... i use my stroller still and baby big girl just turned 2 the last week of july and baby big boy turned 3 the second week of august...they are 351 days apart.... so we live in texas and we have several outdoor things here yearround so i love that the wheels just go on all types of ground or pebbles and rocks , concreate, dirt, mud, grass... and i have a 1st cousin who lived in colorado and she has the same exact stroller , she loves hers too..... now it is a little bigger than some but not to much for me ..im 5'7" tall and usually around 165lbs.... im not a small woman or a large woman im not pettite in any way and i do have 3 feet of legs so that may make a difference but i drive a ford fusion and it goes in and out easily. now the only place i have ever run into something or someone is at the peds. office but i have seen women do it with the umberella strollers .... so .... the biggest problem i have heard about from moms of multipuls is about side by side strollers they dont fit through doorways or mall isles or any isles actually...... hope this is helpful , feel free to email me at kednb@aol.com if you have any questions about this stroller including if you want actual pics.....

I believe they recommend use for older babies because it is designed to work for toddlers after they are walking, the activities are all accessible from the sides of the walker. As my great-grandson hasn't hit that weight yet, I don't know how much the seat can support. As it's very well constructed, I'm sure we'll be using it beyond the 25 lb range.

The stroller has a footrest above the two front wheels. Our four year old is very comfortable inside, I'd say your tall toddler will be okay!
