We did find some drawbacks to this model, though. First, it's heavy. It weighs 36.6 pounds when fully loaded and is closer to the extreme end of our metric than the average for this group of strollers. It also has limited visibility in the back seat when the car seat is fitted. Lastly the front tray release is sometimes difficult to operate, especially after prolonged use. Even with these limitations, we consider this to be a great double stroller that will keep your family together for many years to come.

This tandem stroller features reclined seats that can be independently adjusted for maximum comfort. The large canopy provides UPF 50 protection, and comes with an open view for easy monitoring. We'd like to see the canopy ventilated to allow for more airflow, though. We weren't a fan of the fact the fact that the cup holder is very high up on the frame. You'll have to bend down in order to reach it.
In our test of tipping, the Jeep was able to tip over at a 39-degree angle which is higher than average for a double stroller. It's also heavier than our top picks however, it has plenty of storage space at a reasonable cost and has plenty of padding in the seats and handle.
