No bells and whistles, but it will get your kids there

The back seat (where the baby goes) either sits straight up or lays straight back. A little better range of motion in this seat would have been better.

It held up. I would definitely purchase it second hand to save on cost.

I received this stroller as a gift when I was expecting my second baby. It is helpful in the sense that I can walk both girls at the same time. However, that is where the good wears off. It is very difficult to open - it took us 10 minutes just to get it unfolded the first time. The back seat either sits straight up or lays flat- when my daughter was younger, I really wished it had a recline option. Stearing is difficult and it is similar to driving a semi. However, it is economical and you can get into doors easily. It isn't heavy and the storage compartment underneath is very roomy.

If I had to do it all over, I would have gotten a side by side jogging stroller.

It's a Jungle Out There so Be Careful How You Stroll

Overall
Rated 4 out of 5

I have "Irish Twins" two children just a little over a year apart. This can make travel anywhere pretty crazy and with one child going one way and one the other plus all the packages, diaper bags, and toys a good twin stroller was necessary. I purchased the **Graco Duo Glider - Jungle Adventure Stroller. **

Good when you Need a Double!

Overall
Rated 4 out of 5

I purchased the Graco DuoGlider Double Stroller when our second son was born; my older son was almost 2 years old old at the time.  I thought that I would use it on a daily basis, but it really is somewhat of a production to use it, just because of its size.  For daily errands I switched pretty quickly to a single stroller with a walk-behind attachment.  The attachment wasn't cheap but much easier to deal with than the dual stroller.   However, it was handy to have for longer outings.  It works pretty much like the single Graco strollers - opens/closes with a push of the handle button and a foot on the undercarriage basket.  The ride and seats are comfortab...

Graco DuoGlider great when you have one mom and two kids!

Overall
Rated 3 out of 5

My oldest daughter was not quite eleven months old when my youngest was born, so I had a newborn and a baby who wasn't walking yet. The Graco DuoGlider Double Stroller was very helpful for the first few months of my youngest daughters life. It can hold two different infant carriers, or you can sit the seats up for older babies and kids. A drawback to this stroller is that the seat in the back on has two settings, either laying down flat, like you would to attach the infant carrier or straight up. There is no recline position. While is is helpful that the children sit front to back instead of side by side (it makes it alot easier to get through doorways) the child in the back becomes restless...

Graco Duo Glider Double Stroller Inexpensive and Nice

Overall
Rated 4 out of 5

A friend purchased this stroller as a gift while I was pregnant with my second child. When he arrived my daughter was only 19 months old.  A double stroller was very much needed.  I really loved the pattern options and the fact that for a double full size stroller it folded up as small as they can go.  It accepted my infant carrier from my travel system so that saved me money and headache.  It was a great stroller to push it was fairly lightweight.  it worked pretty well on the grass and was great to turn with once you got used to it.  My daughter was able to climb in and out with out much help from mommy or daddy.  It had a nice amount of storage room for the diaper bag and anything else you might need.  I did find the front umbrella was difficult to open and close up but I wasn't sure if it was my personal stroller or something to do with the brand and model.  I not only recommend this stroller to friends I passed mine on after almost 3 years of hard use.

Great for everyday use and for trips!

Overall
Rated 5 out of 5

We have been using this stroller for a year and a half now and have really loved it. We use the almost everytime we go out with the kids. First, I must admit I love the style of it. Very cute choices and colors for boys or girls and both! We have a mid size car and it fits in the trunk with most of the groceries for a family of four so it is large but not so big you can't put other things in the truck with it. Opens quite easily and folds that way too. Wheels works smoothly and don't have trouble going into most stores. Bottom basket is hard to get into if the backseat is reclinced for infant seat or if child resting. We have a 1 year half year old and a 4 and half year old and haven't had any problems with it.

Love my DuoGlider!

Overall
Rated 4 out of 5

I bought the DuoGlider while I was pregnant with my twin girls and could not wait to put it to use. But I was also worried about how hard it would be to maneuver with its big size and all! Shortly after my twins were discharged from the NICU the stroller was put to good use. Overall I love this stroller, it was easy to maneuver and get into tight spaces. My only problem with it was the front canopy gets stuck and is very hard to move. The rest of the stroller is great though, it is easy to fold and given its size it is not as heavy as you would imagine. I do wish the front seat would recline a bit more but it does the job. 

The basket underneath is very la...

Lasted us for 3 years and passed it on to someone else to use!

Overall
Rated 4 out of 5

This is an AWESOME system!!!  I bought this when my son was born and had a 17 month old at home too.  We literally used it every single day from March through October.  We walked 2 miles a day, pushing our kids.  We took it to the mall, on trips, to Disneyland, everywhere you can think of!!!  The quality was excellent!  It continued to stay in great shape over 3 years.  There's a basket underneath that holds lots of stuff when you're shopping at the mall!  When we went to Disneyland, it poured cats and dogs for 5 days.  The stroller got soaked,but it dried quickly and looked great afterwards.  Another good thing about this system is that is h...

Love Graco Strollers

Overall
Rated 5 out of 5

I love Graco. The Graco Duo Stroller is no exception. We have tried many strollers and we always come back to the Graco strollers. They are the easiest stroller we have found to push. The are easy to push on any surface. I have small kids even though they are older eight, four, and one. And they all love riding in this stroller. I can't say but I guess it is comfy. It is a little bulky to fit into our trunk (Audi A4) but is does fit. It is heavy to lift but you don't want it to be cheap and fall apart. We might have to move up to a tripple stroller because every-ones wants to ride. The snack trays are easy to clean. I love the basket under the stroller. The basket is big enough to hold my very bid diaper bag (cloth diapers). I also love the parent drink holder. If you are going to buy a stroller that will last through a few kids this brand is the one to get. The sun visors don't really do much but are sometimes nice to have.

DuoGlider is not a graceful glider

Overall
Rated 3 out of 5

My children are only 14 months apart so my husband and I were looking for a slim stroller to carry both of them. A side by side stroller was not as ideal for fitting through narrow spaces. When we saw the DuoGlider it was in the price range we were looking for. The negative thing about the stroller is that it is really hard to menouver with two kids inside. It is hard to push and make smooth turns with my 20 pound kid and my 30 pound kid in it. I feel that as time goes on it will keep getting harder to push my kids around in this stroller. The nice thing about this stroller is that it folds up nicely and fits in my trunk. I also like the two seperate sun shades and that one is removable for easy storage and optional for days when its not needed. There is also a lot of storage under the stroller, able to accomodate enough stuff for a trip out all day. I wish the cup holders were bigger at the kids seats because they don't accomodate many large based children's cups.

Great for babies and toddlers or BOTH!

Overall
Rated 4 out of 5

My kids are 18 months apart so this was a AWESOME baby shower gift! I liked it because as my son was a baby instead of taking him out of the infant car seat all I had to do was unattach the seat from the base and pop it in the back seat and it fit perfectly, in addittion it had a 5 point harness in the fron seat which was great just for the fact my daughter was still so young. The problem is the it is very big so it takes up the whole trunk when you have a small car, noow I have a bigger car it only takes up half. My kids are 4 and 5 now and they still can fit in it but thats not saying much when they are only 36lbs lol but I still take it in the mall just so I dont have to rent a stroller t...

Best Double Stroller EVER!

Overall
Rated 5 out of 5

We received this stroller as a gift when I was pregnant with our second son.  When he was born our oldest was two and a half.  We used this stroller all summer for the first summer and lots in the winter months as well.  We use it every time we go to the mall.  It is super easy to fold down with one hand and not too heavy to lift into our van.  I have been using it for my youngest and a daycare baby this year when we go to the library and it is wonderful!  This stroller is easy to handle and steers well.  Our oldest is now four and a half and he still rides in the front.  He is very tall for his age and is radiply out growing it but he loves it! We did...

Great for a bunch of little ones!

Overall
Rated 4 out of 5

This is something I really liked, coming from a mother of 3 small children. Its convenant and seems to be safe for the babies. All of my kids love riding in strollers so when I brought this home the older ones were really happy to get to ride with their siblings. Its durrable and cleans up easy (and my kids are extream mess makers!) It makes for a smooth comfortable ride for the little ones. They are always relaxed when they'er in it. Weather strolling in the mall or taking a nice afternoon walk, it works for my family. Of course, I have an suv because I have 3 kids so I keep it folded up in the back part of my car and it fits with room to spare. Ive refurred a good number of friends with more than one child to this stroller. Its amazing! My oldest gets a kick out of pushing her two younger brothers in the stroller, it makes her feel like a big girl! My sons love being pushed my their sister, even if its around out front yard!

I won't take it out of my car

Overall
Rated 5 out of 5

When I was pregnant with my daughter last year, I was trying to decide between a sit and stand stroller and a double stroller.  My 3 year old son is big enough to walk, but a little too wild sometimes to be trusted to stay close.  Also, I work part time and take care of my 90 year old grandma, so I have to run errands alot during times when the kids are tired because that's the only time I have.  I love the Duoglider for this, I can pop my daughter in the top seat in her carseat, so if she's sleeping I don't need to disturb her at all.  Plus, I can put the little sun shade up on her car seat and also pop the one on the stroller up, so she's in the dark and able to stay sl...
