Peg-Perego Aria Twin 60/40 Stroller, Corallo

-Test Engineer Report-
Design flaw in brake system: When the stroller is fully loaded with 2 babies, and all four rear wheel brake gear teeth are not perfectly aligned to the locking pins, the brake locking mechanism will not engage/extend to the lock position, no matter how hard the user pulls on the brake cable. When this condition intermittently occurs, the user must lift all four rear wheels off the ground while pulling on the brake cable to allow the four rear wheels to rotate freely and independently of each other, simultaneously aligning each of the rear wheels gear teeth to the locking pins, which allows the brake mechanism to engage/extend to the lock position. Lifting all four rear wheels off the ground {while preventing the front wheels from rolling} is unacceptable for users that are not able to lift the weight of a fully loaded stroller, which is the weight of the stroller itself plus the weight of two babies plus the weight of any items in the cargo basket and...Read more

I have a 15 month and a 3 month old so I really needed a double stroller. I read many reviews and I couldn't decide so I just took a chance on the Aria Twin. I could not be happier with my choice. It is small, lightweight, and maneuvers easily. I go on walks, take it to the mall, and just about everywhere. It folds and unfolds easily and is very compact. We have a Mustang and it fits in the trunk nicely. Its also very stylish. The cons are that even though the sun canopies are pretty big, sometimes it is a problem to cover them from the sun. It's a little hard to engage the lock but gets easier with practice. Oh and my son likes to poke his little sister and steal her things. Sometimes I look at them and they're holding hands though.So at least they're always entertained. Anyways, all in all, it is a good investment..

Looking for a double stroller was quite an endeavor! I wanted it to be lightweight and be able to take a carseat, with some storage space underneath. The Peg Perego and the Combi were the only two that met my qualifications. I've had my Peg now for about 4 months and couldn't be happier. I use a regular Graco carseat and can place it forward facing or rear facing. It doesn't "click in" like the special Peg Perego carseat would, but it is still very secure. The straps are a bit of a pain sometimes, but they do give you the freedom to do a 5 point harness hookup or a 3 point. I've gotten used to them now. You can easily take off the bars in the front (on one or both sides)if you don't like them. The basket underneath is a little flimsy, but I don't have any problem putting library books under there. This stroller is not made for "off-roading" per se. It's definitely light-weight. It gets stuck if there are large cracks in the sidewalk or big bumps. I never really use the...Read more
