As a mother of two very active little boys with baby
number three due any day I have become very adept at managing my family when
out and about. I have found that the key to a successful and non-stressful
outing lies with our mode of transportation. When Joovy sent me the Joovy
Caboose Too Ultralight Stand-On Tandem Stroller to review I was thrilled, as I
have been looking for something light and easy to navigate that would grow with
my expanding family.
Before I get too involved in my review let me
share some quick points with you:
Weight of the stroller (in “Stand-On” mode)
is just over 21lbs (in “2 Full-Seat” mode) is 23 lbs

Blueberry, and Greenie {The Caboose Ultralight Stand-On Tandem Stroller also
comes in Brownie and Orangie as well and the Caboose Too Rear Seat can be
purchased in Lemontree, Purpleness, and Orangie as well.}
When using the stroller as an infant car seat
carrier the Joovy Caboose Too Ultralight Stand-On Tandem Stroller is compatible
with a variety of car seat models (see website for a full and updated list).
I have been using this stroller for a while
now and I love it. I was worried about how well it would handle, but with front wheels that swivel and its incredibly light weight frame I could not be more pleased with this stroller. I am also a huge fan of its versatility. It can be a stand-on stroller, a double stroller, and an infant carrier all in one. Being able to transport more than one child in the stroller at a time makes my life that much easier and stress free.

Stroller

What we love about this stroller:
·
I cannot get over how light this stroller is.
Weighing in at just over 23 lbs {with both seats in place} it is a very light
stroller. Because of how light it is, this stroller is super easy to navigate.
I take this stroller on all of my shopping trips because I can go up and down
the aisles easily without running into stuff on a constant basis. At 38 weeks
pregnant I am able to lift this stroller out of the car by myself without any
issues and I can push it around without running out of breathe {LOVE IT!}.
·
It has a nice large heavy duty basket for
storage. On a recent trip to the zoo I was easily able to fit my cooler, purse,
and jacket in the basket. – none of which are small items.
·
This stroller comes with a removable parent
organizer {with zipper storage}. I put my water bottle, my son’s sippy cup, my
keys to the house, my cell phone, and a miscellaneous toy in the organizer when
taking the kids out on a walk.
·
This stroller comes with a universal car seat
adapter that works with a variety of car seats!
·
It is very easy to open and close. Although
it takes both of my hands to close, I am able to easily pop it open one handed.
·
The Caboose Too Seat is really easy to
install and easily converts this stroller into a full double stroller in the
blink of an eye. It has the capability of reclining as well!
·
This stroller will easily fold with the
Caboose Too Seat in place and with the infant car seat adapter in place. I love
that I don’t have to take apart my stroller in order to fold it up and put it
away.
·
I love the removable child tray that has a section
for snacks and cup holder, the adjustable footrest {2 positions} and how easy it
is to adjust the five point safety harness. Joovy really thought about ease of
use when building this stroller and I appreciate it!
Something
to be aware of is the fact that when using this stroller with the Caboose Too
Seat, the storage basket is out of commission – as that is where the second rider’s
feet will be. However – with that being
said the Caboose Too Ultralight Stand-On Tandem Stroller does
have side pockets on the storage basket that can be used to store smaller
items. This has not been a big issue for me so far, as I like to utilize the
parent organizer. Also, the push handle is not adjustable. This is also a non-issue
for me, but still something to be aware of.
I
believe that Joovy has cornered the market on Sit and Stand Strollers with
their innovative and ultra durable products and this stroller is no exception.
It is a wonderful stroller that is easy to use, durable, and intelligently designed.
I would HIGHLY recommend this stroller to anyone looking for a double stroller.
It is perfect for a growing family.
