Nightmare experience, but still recommend February 23, 2008

Quality
The fabric components of this stroller are very resistant to snags & tears. The canopy (both sides on a double are connected) , under basket, seats, & grab bar are all removable. Snaps, parent's handlebar, frame, foot rests & seat supports are high quality - comparable to a BOB. I do have, however, 4 issues:
1)The storage basket underneath is easy to get caught & start to bend when folding. As long as I'm watching out for this problem, I can prevent it entirely.
2)The kid's grab bar can't stand the test of time- or cold weather. I had 3 - yes THREE - strollers arrive broken where the grab bar inserts (a plastic socket integral to the frame, & thus not easily repaired or replaced). The company points out that though the grab bar is nice - it doesn't affect the real use of the stroller. A note here - UPS was responsible for at least two of these breakages, as the 3rd & 4th strollers send to me were personally double-inspected before shipment.
3)The pin to lock the swivel wheels seems to be a weak point. I had different problems with this on two of the four strollers I've now experienced.
4)The second of the four strollers sent to me came with a used tire! & it didn't even fit on the frame!
Availability
I ordered my "in stock" stroller, & after 2 months of waiting I canceled. Later, I ordered again from another website & received my stroller. One word here - the replacements (3 of them after the 1st was defective) took a total of 4 months to play out.
Customer Support
Okay, here is a shining star amidst the many problems I had. Each time I had a problem, the company was fully on my side to get it resolved. In the end I am satisfied with how they have compensated me.
Product Development
The very best change they have made is to the buckle! Now it comes with a pinch-free system where both sides of the harness snap into the same piece, & unsnap with one step. Trust me - it's much better than the pictures.
Also: The nozzle where you attach your bike pump now sticks out far enough from the tire rims to use a travel-size pump.
Ease of Strolling
For all my complaining, the advertised product is still a fantastic stroller!!! I would still recommend it. It truly does go through snow, over bumps, around shopping carts. The seats recline very deeply or sit up high & with good support for your kids' backs & bums. They are also high off the ground & easy for me to buckle my kids. &, you can buy a car seat adapter.
Size
Don't expect a tiny stroller. If you want ultra light-weight & don't really care a sturdy frame, go with a Combi twin savvy. The trax360 is one of the lightest double joggers. My tall 4 yr old fits still. It fit in the back of a trailblazer-barely. It is still heavy but not near as heavy as the BOB duallie.
Conclusion
If ALL of this happened to one customer - what else is going on? Just so you know, the company has refunded my purchase price (not including shipping), & I get to keep the 4th defective stroller. Apparently I am a rare, if not unique, case & you should not expect to get a refund unless you've got a really good reason.
