Thumbs up Sit and stand stroller

I just ordered a Baby Trend Galaxy Sit N' Stand stroller! I am so excited - it has the regular stroller seat in the front which you can use with the infant carseat and a small rear seat/standing ledge for a toddler. I didn't want one of those big bulky double strollers so this looks perfect! I can't wait to get it and use it.

Does anyone else have a sit-n-stand and what do you think of it???

This has by far been the best stroller we have had. We had to give it up when the twins were born in favor of a tandem but I'm telling you this is the best stroller in the world. It is MUCH better than having a toddler and an infant in a tandem. And considering how much walking we do where we live--this is a glowing endorsement to its sturdiness!!!

when i was working i saw a few customers using something simular to it and it looked so good... the only downside i saw was what do you do when the toddler starts complaining that they are tired and wants to sit down?

I used this stroller years ago when we lived in New Orleans. I think it had just been introduced. It was wonderful and lightweight. I bought is so my 2 year old (at the time) could ride and my 4 year old could sit or stand in back. Somehow the older child always got the stroller seat, and the baby would run in circles around us while we walked. But that's just thier personalities! The stroller was awesome!

There is a ledge to stand, but also a seat for them too! They can ride sitting down facing you!

I don't know. My son is the same age as Riley and I can't imagine him standing there! Even with the seat, he is seating backwards. My son would be all over the place and screaming. I dunno know, let me know how it works though and good luck.

Yeah it probably depends on the child esp when they are younger, but I actually think Riley will like this better than the regular stroller. He is always trying to turn around and see me anyways in the regular one, so this way he is facing me and we can chat while we stroll .

as i said the ones i saw were similar; they didn't have anywhere for the toddler to sit except on the standing platform and it looked unsafe for that use
