Amazon.com Product Reviews
An innovative design for a lightweight tandem stroller, the Joovy Caboose ultralight stand-on tandem stroller manages to fit into a 21-pound stroller all of the feature--and then some--of a traditional sit-and-stand. The front seat of the Caboose can fit a variety of infant car seat carriers, and once the child is older than six months, they can be strapped in with a traditional five-point harness. It also has two reclining positions, adjustable footrest, tray with drink holder, and a full canopy. The rear section is for children 2.5 years and older and less than 44 inches tall. While standing they have foam-padded handles, and the padded rear seat gives them a break. Just lock the rear bench seat and buckle the three-point harness, and you're ready to maneuver your way indoors and out. The Neoprene parent organizer is handy, and stow your diaper bag underneath (although, it could stand to be a little larger). The aluminum frame is lightweight and sturdy, and the sage rip-stop nylon helps repel spills and can take a lot more abuse than other fabrics. The manufacturer recommends not exceeding a combined weight of 90 pounds. Compatible car seats: - Graco Snug Rider series

Streamlined Efficiency and Convenience
Double strollers can be bulky and difficult to maneuver, with side x side seats creating an extra-wide profile, or other tandems being too deep to maneuver easily. The Joovy Caboose ultra-light, however, is designed for streamlined ease. Weighing in at just 21 pounds and sporting a neat, compact profile, the Joovy Caboose ultra-light Stand-on Tandem Stroller is a breeze to get around. It measures 41.5 x 21.5 x 38 inches (HxWxD). Sealed ball-bearing wheels contribute to a smoother ride as well, and a foam-padded handle offers additional comfort. A roomy under-seat basket provides room for your traveling essentials, and the nifty neoprene "Cool Essentials Parent Organizer," which includes a cup holder, keeps keys, your cell phone, and a drink close at hand. A Fun, Comfortable Ride
The stroller is compatible with many infant car seats (see list below), offering easy "snap and go" convenience for traveling with a young infant. Once your baby is old enough to sit up independently, she can sit facing forward, secured safely with a five-point harness. Snacks and a drink are close at hand thanks to the removable child tray, and a wide sun shade keeps her safe from the elements. Whether you're browsing at the mall or trekking through the zoo, your older child will love the versatility that the Joovy Caboose ultra-light provides. When she gets tired of walking, she can simply hop onto the standing platform. Comfortably padded handles are available for her to hold. Or she can take a rest on the adjustable, padded seat, which is also equipped with a three-point harness. Compatible Car Seats

Summary: Great stroller!! 2008-08-27
Comment: We really love our Joovy Caboose Ultralight stroller! We have used it with our toddler (now preschooler) and our baby for almost 10 months now, and we couldn't have gotten around without it. It is smaller and much lighter weight than other double strollers, but it feels sturdy. It maneuvers easily, especially for a double stroller. Both kids look comfortable riding in it. The back-to-back positioning for the kids is good, because they don't grab each others' things. Everytime I go out with this stroller, I have people telling me what a well-designed stroller it is and asking me where I got it.

Summary: Great Choice for Newborn and 3 Year Old! 2008-08-25
Comment: I have a newborn and 3 1/2 year old. Little did I know I would need a stroller to accomodate both girls. Not only is the Joovy ultralight lighter (good for me, I am a weakling)than other strollers that have a sit/stand feature for the older child, the color choices are awesome! The red stroller I purchased came with the cool essentials parent organizer and a reversible seat cover for the front. I use the organizer to hold my wallet, keys, cell phone, water for me and my 3 year old and small bag of snacks. I have not used the seat cover since the baby will be in the carrier until she is 6 months. I have been using the stroller for a month and my 3 year old loves it. She always asks if we can use the new stroller. She is small for her age, so even with the front seat reclined as far back as it goes (there are only 2 settings,no full recline, for the front seat) to accomodate the baby carrier, Isabella has enough seat room but a larger child may have to sit more forward and not have enough sitting space or lean forward which would be uncomfortable after a time. She also enjoys the option of sitting or standing and the padded handles are comfortable for her to hold onto in either position. Be sure to read the instructions if you are concerned about the rear seat sliding. There are snaps to hold it securely in place. One of the most beneficial features of this stroller is the extra large canopy. Both girls can be completely protected from the hot Texas sun. The stroller is easy to maneuver, fits down all kinds of store aisles and tight places and handles asphalt and concrete smoothly. If you have trouble turning be sure your front wheels are not locked so they will swivel freely. I have not used it "off road" like at a fair, trade show or other indoor/outdoor event so I am not sure how it wheels on dirt/grass. I hope to try it out at Canton Trade Days soon. My husband has pushed the stroller a couple of times and he agrees that it maneuvers better than he originally thought it would due to the weight of both girls. As far as the storage underneath, it is small but functions fine with a small diaper bag or your older child's belongings. You can access it from the back of the stroller when the older child is out of the way, have the older child pull out your stuff or pull out the stretchy sides to retrieve contents. I happen to have a good-sized diaper bag that I use for long day trips that can be snapped onto the stroller handle. I have also placed a bag under the baby carrier in the front seat with the foot rest locked in the upright position to keep the bag from accidently falling out when I run out of room underneath or in the parent organizer. Obviously this will not work when the baby is no longer in the carrier, but for now it's another storage place. The stroller fits fine in the back of our RAV-4 (the 2004 smaller RAV)and as long as I remove the canopy and carrier attachment I can stand the stroller upright (be sure rear wheels are locked) and hold it in place with a strap I have or lay it down and still fit small additional items. This means a little more time getting the stroller in and out of the vehicle, but it is worth it. Great looking stroller, easy for me to use, easy to put together (I had to put the wheels on) and fun for my older child!

Summary: nice stroller with a few design flaws 2008-08-10
Comment: I researched tons of strollers and finally decided on this one. None of them are perfect but this one seemed to fit my needs the best. (I have a 3 month old and a 26 month old)
Pros:
- Very light
- turns very well
- fairly easy to fold
- kids seem to like it
Cons:
- If you are using the infant attachment you have to take it off every time you put it in your trunk. (I have a mid-sized sedan) It doesn't bother me that much but drives my husband crazy.
- It doesn't stand up on its own when its folded. We have to make sure that the wheels are locked and then prop it up against something. It's a bit more annoying then I thought it would be.
Overall, I am happy with my choice and would recommend it to others with children around the same age.

Summary: A Double Stroller Without The Double Headache!! 2008-08-08
Comment: In order to truly appreciate this stroller I had to own 3 previous double stroller duds. As a self-confirmed cheapskate I cannot stress enough that the Joovy Caboose is worth every penny. Simple to put together, manuevers easily,the canopy on both sides provide the best protection from the sun I've seen, very light and simple to collapse and open. Other double strollers were so frustrating I was debating which child to get rid of. Now when I run over a foot or ram someone with my double stroller it is not on accident.:)Thank You Joovy!

Summary: light like they promised! 2008-08-01
Comment: After researching dozens of double strollers, I purchased the joovy ultralight caboose. I have a 20-mon-old and another on the way and wanted something light enough to use everyday. I tried it out with my friend's toddler and even with over 50 pounds worth of kid (my friend's boy in the front, my son in the back) it was easy to push. I like that it turns easily and is nice and narrow. In fact, it is about the same size and weight as my single graco stroller, and steers much better even with two kids! Have yet to try the infant car seat attachment, but I plan on using that once the baby is born.
