Pros

  • +Don’t need a double stroller at all (for a 2.5 year age gap, as older child walks)
  • +Not bigger, more expensive (compared to alternatives like vista or dedicated double strollers)
  • +Can be configured to put the youngest at the top facing her (adaptable for two kids, even if not a dedicated double)
  • +Not clunky (compared to vista)
  • +Can be found at a good price used

Cons

  • -Configurations will not work (if kids are very close in age and specific configurations are needed)
Cruz is actually better and even with incoming second baby with a 2.5 year age gap finding I don’t need a double stroller at all (bc my first born has preferred to walk ever since she learned really).
