I did a lot of research on double strollers when I found out I was pregnant with my daughter. My son was going to have just turned two when I had her so I felt I needed a double stroller! On top of that, we had gone through four single strollers before we found one that lasted for us - we do a lot of walking!

My research led me to the Peg Perego tender stroller. Everything I read about it made seem like the most durable stroller ever made! I was very excited when I ordered my stroller!

When we got it we found it very easy to use. It easily opened and closed. It fit into the trunk of my volvo easy enough, and even at eight months pregnant I could pull it in and out of the trunk.

Pros:

There are many great features to this stroller. First, it is pretty easy to pull every piece of fabric off and wash it. I really hate dirty covers in strollers and car seats so I wash them often. This stroller makes that easy!

Next, the front wheels lock in place, thus supposedly making it easier to drive on sidewalks and rough terrain.

Another Great feature is the full covers over the seats. The back could be made so that no light gets in to wake a sleeping baby!

Both the front and rear seat fully recline. This makes it great if both kids are sleeping!

The front and rear both hold up to 40 pounds each. This is awsome for long use.

The back seat lays down and the foot rest goes up to make the back area like a buggy! This is really nice for those little tiny babies!

Finally, the stroller has nice three point harnesses that give the kids room to move some yet keeps them from falling out!

Cons:

This is a very expensive stroller. I paid just under $300 for this. I don't mind paying for quality so I didn't mind this at first, but as I used the stroller this began to bother me.

This is a mall stroller. This stroller does not handle well or push easily on a paved walking trail or sidewalk.

This stroller does not handle or steer eaisly. Walking down the main area of a mall is great, but get it into Gymboree where you have tight turns and it feels like a semi on an old narrow city street!

This stroller becomes imposible to steer if the child in the front is over 25#. You are supposed to put the heaviest child in the front, but I found it almost impossible to handle with my son up front. It worked great when I put my daughter up there, but not my son.

The newborn car seats do not snap into this stroller. Anyone with a newborn knows how important it is to let them sleep as much as possible, but I found it annoying that I had to wake the baby up when I moved her to or from the car.

The wheels of this stroller are narrow, thus making it VERY hard to use on anything that isn't paved. I can't tell you how many times I had to do 15 feet of grass or gravel and it took me 15 minutes to do it!

Overall:

If you have twins, get this from birth, and never plan to do walking outside of the mall this would be a really good stroller. It looks very nice and is easy to clean. Plus, the seats look soft. If you have children of different ages I would suggest a regular stroller for the toddler and a bjorn for the baby. By the time you want the baby in a stroller the toddler will be preschool age and you can trust them enough to walk next to you. If you do a lot of outside walking, invest in a double jogging stroller! I used mine about 20 times in the last two years and recently sold it at a yard sale for $25. What a return on my investment~
