How big does a child have to be for this stroller? I have twins and rec'd this from my husband for a gift. Not sure if I should return it and wait til

it says 6 months. I think the idea is that they are able to sit up. The seat back does not recline.

My daughter was probably 9 or 10 months old when we first put her in it. That's worked fine just for walking. I used the running attachment and my husband used the biking attachment within a month or two after that with her. My 5 year old still fits in it just fine.

They really have to be able to sit up. This stroller does not recline at all, though it does have a 5 point harness. Joovy recommends they be at least 6 months, or a solid sitter. You can slightly get around this by wrapping blankets around your kiddos, but of course it wasn't designed that way. It is one solid seat (with two buckles) inside though, so there is no separation or additional support between the seats inside.

I bought this for my daughter in law. She said the child needs to be one yr. old before using it. It should be stated in the stroller info.

Hi,my daughter is turning 4, she is 100cm, she can sit in side comfortable. My boy is 2 years old, so he has not problem with it. Last time my friend's daughter who is 115cm, I found it's too small for her.

Our pediatrician said nine months to a year old before using any bike trailer (which is what we mostly use it for). Our daughter has always been above average size too. I'd ask the doctor what he suggests. We love this stroller though, it's great as a bike trailer and we will soon try it as a stroller and jogger.

I have owned this stroller for a year now and my first choice was the City Select, but the price was prohibitive. I liked it at first and I still do, but I am now wishing I would have spent more money initially and gotten either the City Select Double or the City Mini Double. I bought this after my second daughter was born. She is now 14 months and my oldest is 3. The 3 year old is 32# and 37 inches tall (63rd percentile), and she looks a little squished in the seat. It does push really well and I liked that it came with both seats and the infant seat adapter, but I don't know how much longer my oldest will be comfortable. Also, it is kind of awkward to move once it is collapsed. I think the Baby Jogger City models fold up better. For these reasons, I am now considering buying the City Mini double. Hope this helps!

My daughter is also a tall 6 yr old (49 inches) and the stroller height is just fine. She got it about 6 months ago when she was 5 and LOVES it. Hours of fun play time.

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.....

My tall 4 yr old fits comfortably in the stroller and he loves it- might be more of a weight issue for how much you want to push while running too:) I still think he has some room to grow in the stroller as well.

Hi Phyllis,Amazon was GREAT at accepting my return- contact them for a Return Merchandise Authorization, you can print out the UPS label and ship the stroller back to them for a refund. I had thrown away the box so finding a box to fit was the only real pain, I had to pay my UPS store about $30 for a custom box; but it worked and Amazon was great. I ordered a different stroller- I really loved the City Mini but the front wheel kept locking so I didn't order the same model.

My husband is 6' and he has to hunch just a little to push. It's sort of a problem indicative of most strollers. It's not as short as some of the other strollers we own, but the handle doesn't adjust as our single graco one does. However, there's been no issue of kicking the bar, and my husband wears a size 13 shoe.

Bryan, I think this stroller might be a little too big for her my grand daughter is eight and is a great size for her. Hope this helps

Sorry to be first getting back to you now. I recently had a baby (hence the double stroller) and am first really emerging from the fog.My 2 and half year old is about 34-35 lbs and he loves the stroller. I know what other people have said about it being too small but my son loves it. He thinks it looks like a spaceship "pod" and likes for us to "blast-off!" together.My only complaint with the stoller so far is that it hard to hear my older son who sits in the front as we are strolling. He feels "far away". It is also difficult to get in and out of elevators and certain doors. We live in the city so this might be a problem specific to urbanites like myself.Hope this is helpful, if not too late! Sorry to be first getting back to you now.

Height will not be a problem, my stroller is on it's last leg but it has served us well, especially all the many trips to Disneyland and malls. This stroller was my preferred choice over our big twin Aprica that sits in our garage and collects dust. The stroller is light and compact and we have had it about 3 years.

My 3 year old daughter looks good with the stroller... But I think it'll do for a 6 year old as well, cause I have a tall nephew who's 6 and he looks fine with it as well lol. I just think she'll grow out of it fast..

I'm 5'4 and my husband is 6 foot. We both use it without a problem. The handle is adjustable so he puts it where it works for him and I lower it for me and we even lower it far enough for our 2 year old to push the stroller. Also since the stroller is so small width wise it works great in crowded cities. We use it in Amman Jordan and have used it all over Europe without any problems.

I have a 17 month old so i can only speak on how he fits which is fine . Im 5 3" and my husband is 6 and handlebar is good. I think for the money the stroller is great.

To be completely honest, I have NO idea why I bought a double stroller. We've used it but two times, maybe and I find it's only useful for twins or other multiples. I have the cover, unused, and buried in a closet somewhere. A baby bjorn and regular stroller will be just as sufficient.

I have a five year old and a 2 1/2 yr old and although the weight isn't balanced I love this stroller; I haven't seen a better jogging stroller out there that would be a better fit for an older child. Height wise my 5 yr old is tall for her age but sitting up she still fits; lying down she usually curls up a little bit when she is sleeping but it still looks comfortable.

My son is nearly 40 inches tall and fits it well. Your daughter should last a long time. It's. A great stroller!

The basket is pretty small for your average stroller. It is hard to fit a big diaper bag bc of the rail in the middle. I have a diaper bag that straps to the handle so I have no trouble with this issue. You can fit a few shopping bags and random smaller things. This doesn't change how much I love this stroller. Not to mention, my little one loves it. It has been been the best stroller I've had. Buying accessories for it helps too. Like the strap to hold bags or the cup holder..etc.
