The Joovy Caboose Stand On Tandem Stroller: A Great Stroller For Young Families
First of all: the Joovy Caboose Stand On Tandem Stroller is NOT a twin stroller. It is a travel system that works great for parents who have a toddler and are expecting a second baby. It basically consists in a frame that holds a stroller seat (or a car seat for infants) and behind it a platform for the older child to stand on. In case the toddler gets tired, the Joovy Caboose Stand On Tandem Stroller provides a padded rear seat, much like a bank to sit on.
The Joovy Caboose can be used right from the beginning, it comes with universal car seat attachment, which enables you to strap in most modern infant car seats. The front seat can be used when the baby is about six months old up to when your baby weights 45 lbs. It reclines (though not totally, because the older child needs some space in the rear). There as an adaptable foot rest that can be adjusted to the size of the child. A big canopy provides shade from the sun. There is a child tray with a cup holder if you don't want to use it, just take it off.
The platform makes the Joovy Caboose attractive for the older child: it enjoys a lot of autonomy as it can get off and on the stroller by himself. The other advantage: no constant lifting of heavy toddlers for the parents. When the toddler gets tired, he can sit down on the padded rear seat, it comes with straps that allow you to buckle your kid in for greater safety.
The Joovy Caboose is made from rip-stop 600D nylon, a very durable material that is easy to clean, which is a huge advantage! Just brush it off with a soft brush or a sponge and a mild detergent and give it a good shower with the hose. No problem to clean out ice cream stains, leftovers form chocolate cookies... If you are parents of a toddler already (as I assume since you are reading this review) you will definitely know what I am talking about!
The frame is very sturdy because of its square tubing, and sturdiness is an important feature when you are looking for a stroller that can handle two kids, believe me!
The Joovy Caboose is definitely one of the most compact, maneuverable tandem strollers available. It is extremely short for a tandem stroller (more like a single stroller), which makes it very easy to maneuvre, to get around tricky corners at a store isle and to go up and down curbs, situations that can be an authentic nightmare with a tandem stroller.
The Joovy Caboose folds up easily, the metal folding lock wont brake or wear out after just a few trips. It is pretty small when folded up (height: 10,5, width: 21,50, depth: 43,00) and leaves space in for more luggage or groceries in your car trunk.
Underneath there is a fairly large storage basked, to accommodate everything you need: diapers, toys, jackets...
