Description
The Joovy Big Caboose is a tandem double stroller with triple-passenger potential. Some might call this the 'ultimate tandem twin mobile', made specifically for families who are on the go and need room to grow. The overall design and sturdy construction of the Joovy Big Caboose emphasizes functionality and durability, utilizing a steel and aluminum frame that folds up into a nice slim package for storage or transportation. The Big Caboose is an ideal stroller for families with young children of varying ages. If you only have two children in your care, you can also check out the Joovy Caboose . The Caboose has room for two: one in a harness seat (which has the same big range of compatible car seats*) and the other riding on the back. The extra seat on both the Caboose and Big Caboose are padded and equipped with a 3-point harness. The possibilities offered by the Joovy Big Caboose to parents with multiple children are extensive, giving it a value over and above tandem strollers like the Graco DuoGlider or Combi Counterpart . Those strollers only have room for two, and are only compatible with infant car seats from their respective companies. The Joovy Big Caboose is compatible with an extensive list of car seats* and has a patented Stand On 'runner' for your toddler to ride on while you push, as well as a rear facing seat at the back. The big picture is that large or growing families will have plenty of seating options wit the Big Caboose. Possible combinations include: newborn + young toddler + older toddler; infant twins + toddler; 2 newborns; twin toddlers + older sibling; the list goes on and on. Another really nice thing about the Joovy Big Caboose is that the rear seat is elevated, allowing the child in back to see what lies ahead. The underside storage basket is HUGE, which you will undoubtedly appreciate seeing as you've got at least two kids - maybe three. *The two seats of the Joovy Big Caboose are compatible with the following car seats: Britax Companion Chicco Key Fit Combi Centre DX Combi Centre ST Combi Connection Compass Light and Portable Infant Car Seat Eddie Bauer Designer 22 Graco Snugride Grace Infant Safe Seat (Step 1) Peg Perego Primo Viaggio SIP Bottom Line: This is undeniably an excellent tandem stroller, due mostly to its unparalleled versatility. But, at 37lbs., the weight could pose a problem for some. When fully loaded--with two kids in the front seats and one rider in the rear, you may need a strong back to get it moving. Still, it has a very stable design and handles pretty well as long as you keep it on smooth surfaces. (Off-roading is not recommended, as small wheels make it pretty much impossible.) For everyday use like shopping and sidewalk strolling, the tandem Big Caboose beats a triple side-by-side hands down--you can't get a Triple through a standard doorway.
