Joovy Sit N Stand LX Review Summary

With older siblings in mind, the Joovy Caboose Sit n Stand Stroller provides a seat for an infant/toddler and an extra place for older siblings to either sit (on a bench like seat) or stand. Able to be used from the very beginning, the Joovy Caboose “can hold any car seat securely.“ The main drawback with using the infant car seat adapter is that it squishes the child sitting in the rear. As a “durable” double stroller, the Joovy Caboose “folds up so easily and compactly.” One of the largest complaints of reviewers though is that the Joovy Caboose seems to weight just about as much as a real caboose being “very heavy and too bulky.” This tends to make the stroller “hard to navigate tight spaces.” With one-third of our reviewers not recommending the Joovy Caboose, you may want to check out other sit n stand style stroller reviews here.

My first double stroller was a Graco tandem and I couldn't stand it. My children would pull on each other's hair, kick the back of the seat, etc. — I then bought another stroller that was a side by side. When my oldest daughter turned 4, her head was hitting the canopy/umbrella. Like most… read full review »

We borrowed one from a friend when we had baby #2 to see how it would work out.  It didn't.  My 2-year-old wouldn't stay on the back of the stroller.  He didn't care to sit or stand, he just wanted to get down and run off.  So I guess the stroller wasn't interesting enough to… read full review »

At first I was a little leery about buying a stroller by a company I hadn't heard much about. I ordered this stroller on Walmart.com and used their site to store feature. My husband put the stroller together in a matter of 10-15 minutes. My toddler was IMMEDIATELY interested in riding in the back. — The only thing that I don't like about the stroller is that my toddler cannot sit comfortably in the bench seat while I have the infant seat in the front of the stroller. This really doesn't matter because usually my toddler isn't interested in sitting - she would rather stand. When… read full review »

With two children, a double stroller may not be a necessity, but it certainly can be indeispensible in many situations.  However, I had always been opposed to getting a double stroller because they are so bulky and difficult to navigate in certain situations such as narrow store aisles.  After some research,  I decided that a double stroller would be useful for my family when we go to outdoor events or fesitvals and family walks.  I wanted something that would be compact and affordable.  This troller fit the bill for me as it is a bit smaller than most… read full review »

I bought the stroller when my children were 2 and 5.  They are both small and so they didn't go over the  alloted weight for the stroller.  My older daughter loved the concept of being able to stand, sit or jump out when she wanted to walk.  I love the ability to use a strap on the back seat when I need to keep her in the stroller.  We took it to Disney with us and it worked out great.  — The basket is small and very hard to access.  It has developed a squeak which, I found out at Disney, was common to other Joovey strollers that we saw.  … read full review »

I purchased this stroller for my infant son and toddler son.  The car seat fit on it perfectly, however, my older son wasn't able to sit when the front seat was reclined.  It has to be reclined with an infant seat in the front!  I wasn't even able to use the stroller because my older son didn't want to stand all the time and he would complain about the front seat digging into his back.  The back "seat" was not stationary, either.  It would slide up and down, which made it hard for my son to sit still on it.  The stroller is also very heavy, making it hard to… read full review »

I love the concept of this stroller...my son rode in the front in his infant seat and now rides in the regular seat while my daughter (almost 3 when my son was born) rode or stood on the back. I think it is perfect for older toddlers with younger siblings. The stroller is very heavy and too bulky, though. It was a pain to take on trips, and we travel often. It is hard to fit the stroller in a trunk of a car if you have luggage as well. Most trips we have taken it on, we have had the stroller riding in the back seat with the kids instead of in the trunk of the rental car. It is heavy and hard… read full review »

The stroller by Joovy is great! My son was never a "stoller baby" - by that I mean one of those babies you see lounging or sleeping in a stroller. So, when my daughter came along and it was time for a double stroller I knew we were going to have a hard time - until...we found this stroller. My son LOVES this stroller! He can stand on the back and  safely "see" what is going on while his little sister happily plays in the front. We have walked hundreds of miles (literally) with this stroller - on all sorts of terrain (sidewalks, malls, even trails in the woods). It is durable, yet light… read full review »

I have a friend who has this stroller. One day we went tothe mall together and my 2year old and 4 year old were fighting each other and my friends child for the right to sit on the back of this stroller. This was my child who can unstrap every child safty invention known to man and thus has not sat in a stroller since she was 18 months old. Two of my children can fit on the back, the baby goes in the front, so I only have to worry about my 6 year old. Needless to say, after that trip tio the mall I went right out and bought one. I have been happy with it ever since.  This is from a… read full review »

This stroller is very easy to use and folds up nicely. It fits in the back of most cars, even if you can't lie it completely flat. It does fit flat in my Explorer though. It turns very easily and handles bumps in the road nicely. I love it because you can actually use it in the mall without taking up all the aisle space! People stop me all the time to ask about it. I've just recently started using it without the infant seat since my youngest is old enough to sit forward now. This makes it more comfortable for my toddler since the infant seat isn't behind him if he sits on the bench,… read full review »

This stroller would be ideal if your older child is no younger then five and no heavier then thirty pounds. When we took ours out for the first test drive, I triped over my nefew's feet several times, he slipped off, he fell off, and complained the rest of the time. The front seat doesn't recline back enough. The car seat is hard to put in and take out. The back seat is more of a bench with no back. When he got tired and fell asleep his head just hung down since there was no place for him to rest his head. I am all about comfort for my kids and family. —… read full review »

This stroller is perfect for a parent with a baby and older toddler.  The toddler can sit or stand.  It comes in different colors. — It doesn't have a parent tray, the basket doesn't hold enough for 2 kids and is hard to get into, the front seat doesn't recline enough for the baby to sleep in and is too short for a tall baby.  It is pretty heavy and folds flat, but is awkward to carry.  I ended up trading this stroller in for a different one mostly because it just doesn't recline enough and my baby like to sleep when out in the stroller. —… read full review »

The Joovy Sit N Stand LX is the solution to all my stroller issues.  I have a two year old who still needs to be buckled in, and a 5 1/2 year old that does not like to walk long distances.  The solution is the Joovy Sit N Stand.  While my two year old can sit up front buckled in with the tray which also keeps her in place, my older daughter can stand in back or take a seat and be buckled as well.  This stroller is durable and easy to clean.  Shipping was also free when I purchased it on… read full review »

This is a good stroller for my son who is 3 1/2 and daughter 19 months. Wheels are a little squeeky, but not bad. I always thought it is because my son is kind of heavy. We have used it for longer walks and it seems to hold up fairly well. I liked it because it was smaller than the side by side double strollers. It is easy to fold up and open. Do miss not having a place to put a coke or water bottle for me. Kids both seem to like it too, except when my son is pushing on or picking on his sister :) — —… read full review »

Nice concept but it needs some work. I am still hoping that Graco will jump on the band wagon and come up with a super cool sit and stand. The joovy has terrible storage.. no storage tray for the Moms but you can purchase one that is not that hot. The underneath storage is sooooo small I have to hang my diaper bag off of the back of the stroller which is in my way. This definitely needs some tweaking but unfortunately by the time they come up with a good sit and stand we won't need one..… read full review »
