Omg what an excellent thorough review.

[@gracemalimbag3227]

Wow! Literally listened to every detail you said! Thank you for taking so much of your time doing the video.

[@ashleybatchler4777]

I'm loving this. Just ordered mine thanks for this review!

[@SarahNEllis]

Thank you so much for this! We’re having our second one and I’m on the hunt for a double stroller that works with toddler and infant car seat. Your review was so thorough; I really appreciate it.

[@007ButterflyEffect]

Love the video, great review!!! So detailed but not overwhelming and answered all my questions. Great mama ! Keep it up 💜💜💜💜💜

[@tinaway1029]

Wow great job!!! Thank you for taking so much time to go over everything!

[@bodbuds]

FANTASTIC VIDEO. It's so hard to decide which double stroller to get! This video helped me a ton to decide on the Joovy! I appreciate your thoroughness!

[@breellis7577]

Thank you for making such a detailed video! Super helpful.

[@giselleguischard9964]

thank you so much for this review. So thoughtout and informative for those of us with questions.

[@matthewxramirez]

Thanks so much for both thorough reviews on this! I appreciate all the different combos you went through and your real life experience. My wife is pregnant with our third and our youngest daughter will be 5 by the time baby arrives. I like the wraps you did as well, very cool!

[@chels10902]

This review is amazing and so detailed!

[@annajuliatwinmama]

Thank you for your detailed review! I am expecting twins and this stroller is my #1 wish. Your video gave me all the information that I needed and answered questions that I couldn't find the answer to anywhere else

[@evelynmoses6364]

So detailed! Thank you. I’m going from a Cybex Aton M single compact stroller to a double stroller since I’m having baby #2 (Irish twins for sure lol)!!! Watching many reviews and this was so detailed but not overwhelming!

[@Addicted2Muzic94]

Alright, I'm sold. I've been looking for a stroller just like this but was struggling to find one that would fit in my van. Even with a minivan, i still have fairly limited space and all of the others were either just barely or way to long for the trunk space that i have. This however, especially with removing the seats from the stroller, i could fit this just fine in my trunk! Thank you for giving such a thorough review! Even telling us the things that you bought but didn't use. Every bit of this info will be so useful, including all of the different ways to configure it to get the max room for each kid. Lol, in other words, I'm sold! This is now on my baby registry and i have friends who are going in together to help me get this. One other thing i like is that it can be bought separately so you don't have to buy the whole set up right away and can space it out and buy the other seats at a later time; that is what we plan on doing.

[@jennifercam5219]

Thank you for this video!! I've been watching this stroller for a while and you've convinced me that I just need to make the splurge!

[@NicoleReneWatson]

Jennifer C yay! You’re going to love it!

[@saad_b305]

This was extremely helpful and thorough. Great review.

[@selenalalonde2261]

Thank you for being so thorough! I just picked one up from FB market today and it was so helpful to see a bunch of different configurations!

[@ryanw3994]

Wow thanks so much for all the details and thoughts!!

[@alidowber5099]

Great review, covered absolutely everything

[@Crumpman]

Very in depth video! Big help as im shopping for my and my wife's first baby. Thanks

[@isdaGang]

Amazing review. We're expecting our third and will definitely be needing the bench seat! Thanks

[@khristytoo4299]

you killed this review mama! soooooo helpful and answers so many mama questions!!! thank youuuu so very much!

[@kimberlysymonds7517]

I love my Joovy Qool I’ve owned mine for the last year. I bout it when I had a my 4th child. But I also run a home daycare and have used it in EVERY combination

[@twinkleflyer]

Thank you for showing the trunk!

[@rachelwallace3884]

Thank you so much for this video, it’s fantastic. I’m due with baby number two in September and my babies will only be 13 months apart so this stroller seems perfect for us.

[@GuessWhooou]

Wow, thank you for this review.

[@thingshappens]

Great Review!

Awesome review

[@sameermalik9]

Thank you so much for the information!!

[@rosacb5766]

great video! :D

[@vinventure5155]

Just ordered mine, thank you so much for this perfect review 😍

[@theamazingem]

I got this stroller after seeing your original video. I have a 1 year old who is 18 lbs and a 5 year old who is 40 lbs (sits in the bench seat when tired) they both sit very comfortable. This stroller really is a beast! But it fits in my Hyundai Sonata. Not much space left for other stuff but I’m able to squeeze my groceries around it. My only gripe with it is the bench rider has no shade so I use a summer infant rayshade which works pretty good.

[@karenvillarreal1241]

We have a sonata as well and I’m thinking about this stroller and was nervous it wouldn’t fit, I’m still going back and forth between this and the city select.

[@christrafi9153]

Thank you so much for this

[@FloridaSalon]

Great review

[@natasharachellemarynahanee6294]

Awesome video thanks for all the details did a awesome job showing this stroller I want to get this stroller I'm a mother 4 pregnant with # 5 this stroller is perfect 🙂

What model vehicals you use?

[@NicoleReneWatson]

Breag2011 it’s a 2012 Toyota Sienna xle

[@korigarcia9914]

Loved the video and detailed content! I did want to ask, what did you use for your mom hooks on each side of the stroller handle? Very interested in your setup!

[@gracematthews1247]

Thank you so much for your video. I want to know if you have a problem with scratches when you open or fold the stroller. I get lots of scratches at the end of the seat frame and on the handle bar.

[@rantao3786]

Thank you for your review, it's really helpful! Just wondering to know if the lower seat facing out, the upper seat facing towards you. Can they both be reclined?

[@ruyueding1617]

Great review!Will this fit in the back on a sedan?

[@RAP-sn1db]

Great review. We love this stroller. At 18:34, Nicole discusses the "release issue" with the Britax infant seat from the adapter. My wife and I have found that pushing slightly down on the carrying handle then pressing the release trigger it will work 100% of the time. Hope this helps anyone in the same boat as us. Thanks.

[@susanmcdermott3410]

Are you still liking this? I’m thinking about buying it on Thursday

[@kourtneywilson7588]

how do you find discounts/coupons for this stroller? i’ve never seen it less than about $450!

[@idamarttinen4392]

Do you need to rethread the harness to higher and lower it or is there like a sliding option?

[@jacarandaharvey1857]

Can the infant car seat go in the middle? So toddler can have more room on bench seat

[@MissNatisfaction]

Hi! I was really gonna go for the black melange. But now that I see the grey with the brown leather handle and belly bar, you've convinced me. Any tips if I wanna make my own leather handle bar ? Thanks again!

[@NicoleReneWatson]

Nathalie D thanks for watching! I measured the circumference of the handle and then factored in the width of the separating zipper and seal allowance to determine the length and width of the fabric. I sewed a basic rectangle and attached the zippers on either side. There are also sellers on Etsy and such who make covers. I hope that helps.

[@Ilcejd]

Hi does it com with the brown leather ?

[@adriennewells8134]

Thank you for the review. I’m due in Oct with my second and have been trying to find a good double stroller. I have a Britax that I love but the car seat is expired and I’m looking for something newer. So I’m use to the size and how the seats work. I was just wondering about the little bench seat... Can it only go in that one spot?

[@NicoleReneWatson]

Adrienne Wells congratulations on baby number 2!! Unfortunately yes the bench seat can only be used in that one spot.

[@jacylewis8577]

Loveee this video! Thank you for being so thorough! Definitely think this one is our pick! We’ll use your link when we decide to make the jump! Is there something that tells which car seats attacg in it?

[@mary-margaretmcbride2327]

This was a great review! I wonder if you could put the grocery bag in the middle spot under the top seat when both seats are in use. It probably wouldn’t be a good place to put groceries but maybe a good place for emergency snacks if it would fit.

[@sandrapodkalicki6252]

yes you can, if you go to joovy website and look at their photo of stroller configurations, you'll see in the last pictures of DOUBLE use configurations, the shopping tote is in between both seats, and in between bench seat and one seat

[@ellieyanti6919]

Hi! What does the adaptor at 4:55 called? And where do I get it? Its not the car seat adaptor right?

[@Followyourheart98]

Can you safely put the seats in the two lowest latches?

[@johnathanlovegren8080]

Can the top seat parent face lay flat with bottom seat facing out up right?

[@jiheehan7847]

Nicle, it has been 1month. since I watch your video. My niece needs to have stroller. What do you think about Quinny buzz with your Joovy Qool?

[@raleighnoel]

What do you guys think about having twin infants and a two year old? I don't know if my boy is old enough for that bench seat

[@julieamparomedina5510]

Yo lo quiero dónde lo prode conseguir usado

[@sarahviall7649]

Would this work for my newborn and 4 year old or is she going to be too big for the seat?trying to decide what to get for the two of them

[@AnaS-ig4qh]

How is its weight? Is it hard to lift up? Thanks

[@kdb0518]

Would you recommend this if I am planning on having only 2 children since it's a very big stroller?

[@kimberlysymonds7517]

I have the Greco adaptor. It works a lot better & leaves space for the front seat to recline. I also flip the infant seat forward in the upper position to provide the bench seat rider with more head space

[@Addicted2Muzic94]

Do you use the graco adaptor with a britax carseat? Sorry if I'm misunderstanding you! ❤

[@annalissamedina6237]

With all 3 seats on both facing forward. How many inches long is it?

[@fatemar8367]

Please could you let me know the height of the front rumble seat ? I've been trying to check online. I want to know the height from top to bottom of that seat🤲

[@nataliegrahma9330]

Is this stroller Disneyland approved? I’m going on vacation to Disney soon and I love to know if I can take this stroller in Disneyland.

[@roxanaclark2720]

Loved the video! Thank you so much for making such detailed review. I think I will definitely purchase this stroller! - Side question: where did you get your couch/couches from?!

[@NicoleReneWatson]

Thank you so much! And they’re sofas from the “Digby” line by a Flexsteel. We ordered it through a local small retailer but flexsteel is carried at most furniture stores. I love it! We were able to choose the exact layout as well as the fabric. Highly recommend!

[@adobongadobe]

Thanks for this very detailed review. Seems like the bulk of these kinds of stroller systems would be my biggest limiting factor. I've watched quite a few reviews and for a car, looks like these won't fit with all the attachments.

[@celestemarquez6219]

Hi! So for the upper position those adapters come with the stroller or do we need to purchase those as well?? I know the bottom long ones are a desperate purchase but wondering for the high upper ones!

[@NicoleReneWatson]

Celeste Marquez yes one set of adapters come with the stroller. You can put those adapters in the upper position or the middle position.

[@ellieyanti6919]

Hi! Where and whats the name of the upper position adaptors? I want to get one for ours too!

[@30rbyers]

Thank you so much for this detailed review! I have a 3 year old with another one due in a few months. My only concern is the height limit on the seats as we are a tall family. Do the kids seem uncomfortable at all when their legs get too long?

[@NicoleReneWatson]

Sorry for not responding sooner. I understand your concern. My 4 year old is pretty tall. Compared to other strollers it’s definitely the most comfortable one we’ve seen or tried. Even my 7 year old will occasionally sit in the stroller to take a break from walking. When the seats are facing each other though, that’s when their legs become more of an issue if they’re tall.

[@30rbyers]

@evil guardian well my child just turned 3 and is perfectly capable of walking. However, she does tire after awhile and having the flexibility to have her sit and rest while out on long walks is a plus. I potentially may have another child as well so I feel like my line of questioning is perfectly valid. Thanks for your unsolicited input though!

[@raggamuffinnyce]

My son is 37” tall at 2.5 years old. We tried this out in buybuybaby and the seats were way too small. When you pull the canopy over, his head is pressing up against the canopy and he is so uncomfortable. I’m so sad because this video had me SOLD on the joovy qool.

[@janetcrozier1334]

This is one of the best stroller reviews -on any stroller -I’ve seen. Thank you so much. I now own a Joovy Qool :) I’m really struggling with the fold though and haven’t taken the stroller out of the house or practiced folding off of my area rug yet. The plastic parts at the bottom of the stroller and on the front wheels scrape off the (rug) ground and I’m worried they’re going to scratch terribly outdoors. Opening the stroller seems even worse. At least with folding it I can ease it down and almost stand it up rather than letting it lay flat. Any tips? How does yours look after folding it outdoors so many times?

[@jennaypennay]

Hi, I totally understand since I received mine i have been EXTREMELY careful when it comes to folding mine. I usually make sure that I grab it by the belly bar and lifting it up on the wheels. I also got a cover for that part as well.

[@AnaS-ig4qh]

@@jennaypennay Hi, Jenny. I don't speak English well so I'm going to ask you in Spanish. Cuál es el problema que decís tener con el? Yo busco algo así para dos niños pero que pueda usar con sólo una silla luego. Me preocupa el peso y su largo, ya q mi elevador es bien justito y por las escaleras con los dos niños no seré capaz. Si me dieses información en español t agradezco. Bendiciones!

[@alanad2339]

I know you just bought the parent console but just curious what sized cup the itsy ritsy will hold. I have a large yeti cup and need something that will fit that.

[@NicoleReneWatson]

Alana McGinn I just checked and my 30oz yeti fits perfectly in the cup holder of the caddy. I took a picture but I don’t know how to insert it here. I guess you’ll just have to trust me lol. Hope that helps!

[@alanad2339]

@@NicoleReneWatson Awesome! Thank you for checking!

[@kyrawardell5684]

how do the wheels handle on gravel roads or trails

[@jennaypennay]

The wheels do not get stuck, the only thing is it is a little bumpy.

Are those custom handle bars or covers you got for them?

Do you think I could put a Nuna Infant car seat on it?

[@RitaGreen]

Wondering the same thing

[@Plantasnstuff]

I believe they do sale an adapter for the Nuna

[@kimberlysymonds7517]

I put the tote in the middle position. Then I can have the top seat rear facing and the front seat can be forward or backwards

[@kimberlysymonds7517]

Tote is great for going to amusement parks. I can pack extra clothes and hats and if a child needs to change, I just bring the tote in the washroom without unpacking the full diaper bag

[@NicoleReneWatson]

That's a great idea. I've never tried it!

[@mjm8741]

Will this fold closed with seat rear-facing?

[@NicoleReneWatson]

Unfortunately no. There are limited positions the seats can be in when folding. Usually we just remove the upper seat and place it back on when we unfold it. It was annoying at first but now I don’t mind.

[@OneRandomDolly]

Pretty much exactly the same as my cosatto wow xl except the bench seat it built in and is to stand on. Major difference Is mine cost £1000 lmao

[@chouavang8659]

I tried pushing it in sand at the beach and it is not fun, the stroller is too heavy and will sink into the sand so I would not take the stroller to the beach again 😅
