Assembly took about 10 minutes. Tried the kzbin.infoUgkxH6qKgszNeMi7lLzvjBifqEp-DqTXB2AG stroller with our grandson, and he loved it! It wheels effortlessly and folds simply. Length folded is about 48“ x 4“. Not sure why other reviewers are having difficulty with the canopy staying attached, but I have not had this problem. Would definitely recommend it.

[@jillfranklin7377]

Hi Nicole! New subscriber here sent over from your Besties channel! I just wanted to say that you are absolutely not silly for wanting a stroller for aesthetic reasons. I too love the look of the leather handles. I have the Silvercross jet limited addition. I chose it because its about the only lightweight compact stroller with those features. I have 5 children but they are spaced out abit, my youngest two are 7 and 2, so I was happy to finally be able to chunk the bulky stroller. But now I'm pregnant with baby # 6 and will need a stroller with double capabilities again. I definitely want this after seeing your review and I will definitely look on Etsy for some handle and bar covers. Btw, your kids are adorable!

[@mszhu9715]

Love handle cover, hope can buy this same one, thank u

[@crystalv7945]

Your kids are so cute love the stroller would be great for amusement parks

[@haleyteter1682]

Best Review I have found! Thank You!!

[@krystalthrash1072]

Came to watch this because i JUST bought a Joovy after hours of research. I got mine off eBay too open box for $178 last night. I was so excited!!! Glad to see yours was what it said it was because i was scared at first 😂

[@brandiecastleberry236]

krystal thrash how did you find such a great deal? Just search for the Joovy Qool and keep an eye out constantly for a good deal?

[@PunkLifeMama]

I love the Qool (I rented one for the summer) and I hope you do too! Awesome over view. Can't wait to hear how you like it after you've used it a while. I've been thinking about buying one for myself.

[@NicoleReneWatson]

You can rent strollers?!? That’s awesome!!

[@PunkLifeMama]

@@NicoleReneWatson Yes!! Most metro areas have baby gear rental places. I was living in Indiana for school before I moved back home (South Florida) and I'd come home for long, 4-8 week visits, so we rented strollers, high chairs, cribs, even jumpers/exersaucers and toys. So convenient for vacations or visits when you can't or don't want to schlep the metric crap ton of gear your kids need.

[@NicoleReneWatson]

Vicky Johns that’s awesome! We might have to look into that when we travel to Dallas next week!

[@PunkLifeMama]

@@NicoleReneWatson Yes!! Boutique Baby Rentals in Dallas is fantastic. There's another one too, Traveling Baby Company I think it's called- they're a little more on the affordable side while still having decent gear. In a city like that I'm sure there are others, too. Enjoy your trip!!

[@melodyspice9148]

I've been going back and forth between this stroller and city select side by side stroller. We have a second hand graco double and its heavy. Do you feel its just as heavy? Also.. this is crazy but my name is melody and I have daughter named Reia! Lol

[@veronicaherrera1460]

Hi, loved your video. Would you be able to let me know dimensions from front wheels to back wheels please?

[@Thepublicaccount]

Would the canopy possible snap on frame to shade the toddler bench

[@natalianesterova1819]

We really want to buy this stroller, but How about car sit? Can you show us with the car sit, regular sit and a bench all together. I have a 2 and half yr.old, 8 month old and baby on the way, so it will help me so much to see all 3 sits attached. Thank you

[@f19972]

Can you show how you did the leather on the stroller? It looks amazing!!

[@NicoleReneWatson]

Just Wonder thank you! I found a bunch on Etsy and sort of copied that. I measured the circumference of the handlebars and used that to sew rectangles of faux leather vinyl rectangles with zippers. Making them was easy, actually attaching them was the tricky part lol

[@CLAUDIAELKADY]

Is it possible to post a video on how u did it and a link of where u got the leather from Etsy?

[@NicoleReneWatson]

CLAUDIAELKADY this is a video I found helpful kzbin.info/www/bejne/bJjIkJx3aJaVa7c

[@jilliancaratozzolo8804]

What color leather and stitching colors did you order from lux and leather?

[@simbajie]

Hi! Do you know if toddler can stand on the footrest of the bench seat? Saw your daughter standing on it and wonder if it works like the uppababy piggyback board? Thank you!

[@NicoleReneWatson]

simbajie yes the toddler can definitely stand on the foot rest of the bench seat. It is quite narrow though so it’s not great for longer rides. Plus I keep a drink caddy up there now so there isn’t as much space for her head if she stands. But as long as the handle is at the longer setting a child could definitely stand. My two-year-old even stands on the seat of the bench seat sometimes

[@CaileyDawn]

I think you've sold us on the Joovy Qool stroller! I'm with you on the brown faux leather covers, I think that's why I get so drawn into Uppababy, because it just looks so beautiful! Do you have any Etsy shops you recommend for this? I only saw handle covers for the Uppababy, nothing for Joovy. Unless you'd be interested in making another set of covers and we'll buy them from you! ? :D

[@krystalthrash1072]

Cailey Dawn yes i hope she does! I’d definitely buy some too!!!!

[@stephanieortiz2471]

I would buy one from you too! So ingenious!

[@Channy3]

Me too!! Are you selling these??

[@brontemartin7241]

Lux and Leather! She is amazing!

[@sarahmccaslin5577]

Yes do you sell these?!

[@courtneysimsgameplay8217]

So in order too add the car seat do I need the second seat adopter my girls will be 15 months apart

[@NicoleReneWatson]

My life as a single mom of two Cuties yes if you want to use the included seat in addition to a car seat you’ll need the additional adapters for the stroller as well as the car seat adapters. The type of stroller adapters you get will depend if you want the extended front ones or just the standard ones that c an be used on the upper and middle positions. I hope that makes sense

[@AmberCaprie]

Great review. You should sell the covers you made.

[@jjeenniis]

What material did you make the brown covers from? Did you hand stitch or use sewing machine?

[@NicoleReneWatson]

It’s a vinyl faux leather i found at my local Joann’s. I used a sewing machine because I made mine with zippers. But there are some great tutorials on attaching stroller covers with just thread

[@Paulinhamalmeida]

Is it possible to recline the sits if I have 2 regular sits at the same time?

[@NicoleReneWatson]

Ana Paula Almeida I’m honestly not sure about that as I only have one of the full size seats. Joovy has a great diagram showing a whole bunch of configurations. images.app.goo.gl/w3tRjNHByQbWZHUG9

[@debbietorres3338]

Does it really starch a lot like they say

[@debbietorres3338]

Do you still love it

[@cheyennestefoniuk2755]

Where you get that phone holder i know you said amazon .Whats it called on amazon ?

[@NicoleReneWatson]

Cheyenne Stefoniuk here is the link to the phone mount I bought. www.amazon.com/dp/B01G7JWQDQ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_myAJCbHHQ7V31

[@amandanailmusic]

I see you recently had baby 3. How is this stroller working out? I'm due with number 3 in a few months and also just ordered this stroller open box. My boys will be 4 and 2 when baby gets here. I'm hoping this works for us.

[@NicoleReneWatson]

Amanda Nairobi I’m so sorry for not responding sooner! I’m planning to film an updated video soon on this stroller but I still absolutely love and recommend it. We bought the second seat which has been awesome and it’s help up through a ton on use over the last year. I think you’re going to love it!!

[@cecilburger6477]

If you were to recline the seat back, can your oldest lay in the seat comfortably? You demonstrated your eldest daughters head blocking the canopy.. but wondering if it works fine reclined. Thank you!

[@NicoleReneWatson]

Cecil Burger I think I understand what you’re asking but just to be sure. Are you wanting to know if the canopy can be extended when the child is laying down, even if it cannot be extended comfortably while they’re sitting up? If that’s the case then yes, the canopy definitely extends more easily with less obstruction when the seat is reclined. My daughter tends to shift down just enough that it’s not a problem. I hope that makes sense.

[@cecilburger6477]

Thanks for such a fast reply! I was curious about the seat itself. But I think you still answered the question I had in mind!

[@ellieyanti6919]

@@NicoleReneWatson ahhh!! So does this mean the seat size is still suitable for a 3 to 4 year old height to sleep on it?

[@Its.Deanna.33]

Hey Nicole, Did you end up getting a car seat for this stroller? I want to get the Nuna Pipa adapters but i've read some bad reviews, I cant find a lot of information on it either.

[@NicoleReneWatson]

I did just recently buy a Britax seat but I haven't purchased the adapters yet. Have you checked Amazon? I was reading some of the reviews there.

[@Its.Deanna.33]

@@NicoleReneWatson I asked joovy on their site and they got back to me saying they've changed the adapter so the car seat won't stick thankfully! I've read good things on the Britax adapter tho

[@NicoleReneWatson]

Deanna Crumb that’s too bad. I did notice that there were more complaints for the Nuna adapters over the britax ones. That must be why.

[@brandiecastleberry236]

Are you still loving this stroller? I have a 22 month old and a 2 month old and I LOVE the Uppababy Vista but the 35lb weight limit on the lower seat really isn’t going to work for me. So I’m between this one and the City Select Lux.

[@NicoleReneWatson]

Brandie Castleberry sorry this took to song. I do love it! Unfortunately we’ve have a ridiculous amount of snow fall and crazy low temperatures the last few months here in minnesota so I havent been able to test it as much as I’d like. But I really do think it’s amazing. I also considered the CS but ultimately went with this because I preferred the way it looked, the tires, and it was such a good deal.

[@brandiecastleberry236]

I’m currently stalking EBay, Amazon, and Mercari to see which of the two strollers I can get the best deal on. The Joovy would be a no brainer if I could get the deal you did! I need two seats.

[@debbietorres3338]

Are you happy with the stroller

[@tyrafrank2082]

you still love this stroller?! Debating on getting this for my boys! 😊 my youngest is 3months and I have a 3 year old toddler

[@NicoleReneWatson]

Tyra Frank I really do! Especially now that the snow is melting where I live we’ve been able to go on more walks. I love how well it pushes and how much I can fit. The only downside really is that it’s definitely not compact. It would not have fit in the trunk of our Tahoe with the sits up but it fits perfectly in the back of our Sienna.

[@katiyatovar1981]

When the bench seat is installed you aren’t able to use that bar which really sucks but I still think the stroller is totally worth it.

[@emilyeshraghi8197]

Really helpful! Do you still recommend this stroller? :)

[@NicoleReneWatson]

Emily Eshraghi yes absolutely love it!! It’s been used almost daily all summer long!

[@emilyeshraghi8197]

@@NicoleReneWatson Awesome!! Thanks! :)

[@vmmelanson]

I saw your oldest daughter stand on the bench - is it safe to do while you are moving the stroller? I guess the seat would get dirty... but would be nice if the toddler could stand and look out. Great review thank you.

[@NicoleReneWatson]

Vickie LaFleur thank you! I guess in terms of safety that’s somewhat subjective. I feel like my daughter is secure enough (she’s almost 5 and very agile) but I suppose it’s still a risk as I’m sure it’s not intended by the manufacturer.

[@cheyennestefoniuk2755]

How much did you pay for everything ! I really wanna get this stroller and the bench seat and the grocery tote ?

[@NicoleReneWatson]

Cheyenne Stefoniuk because the stroller was open box on eBay for $210 I was able to get everything for about $340 using 20% off coupons for the bench seat, front adapters, and the shopping tote (which came with regular adapters.) I hope that helps!

[@annamcdermott8565]

Are you still loving this stroller? I’m debating getting one.

[@NicoleReneWatson]

Anna McDermott yes!!!
