Two years ago, I never would have imagined myself any sort of expert on strollers. But two kids -- and a half dozen different strollers (sigh) -- can work wonders. I picked up the Graco Quattro Duo after the birth of my second daughter, namely because I wanted a stroller that could easily fit a car seat (which I prefer over a bassinet), and the Quattro Duo does that nicely. What follows are my thoughts two months in. Please keep in mind that I live in Manhattan and have no intention of ever taking this stroller in a car, so the fold (which is easy, but huge) isn't something I can really talk about. Also, as a city dweller with lots of walking to do, I use a Bugaboo Cameleon and a Maclaren Quest for my single-stroller needs (bless them in-laws), so I've gotten used to their easy maneuverability and may be a bit unduly harsh on the Quattro's. That said, here's what I think:
br /
br /- Yes, this thing is huge. Other reviewers are correct: The photos don't do this stroller justice. It is longer and larger than it appears in the pictures. I sometimes feel like I need an intercom to communicate with my older daughter up front. And I always feel like I'm pushing an SUV. Between the weight of the stroller, the weight of the kids, and the weight of all the stuff you'll be lugging around in the storage spaces, figure you'll be pushing a good 80 to 100 pounds. The weight and length (it fits, barely, in a typical apartment building elevator) make it a bit difficult to steer, though in fairness, I'm still using the Bugaboo and that thing (another beast of a stroller) steers like a dream. So I could simply be jaded.
br /
br /- There are a ton of smart design decisions here. For all the buzz about the Bugaboo, the one thing I always disliked about it was the lack of toddler 'amenities' that can come in handy -- stuff like cup holders and extra storage space. The Quattro Duo is a champ in this regard. There are cup holders for the kids, cup holders for the parent (way) in back, a separate storage space for the bigger kid who rides up front (my daughter loves to reach in a grab stuff out of there like Houdini; though she's probably put on an extra five pounds for grabbing all the cookies I've stashed there for our be-good-while-we're-out-and-I'll-give-you-a-snack bribery sessions (sorry Dr. Spock, I am a weak man). There's a little fanny pack for the parent, which itself has a few handy compartments. And the storage space under the seats is huge, though the downside is that you'll find a way to fill it all, and that's just gonna be more stuff to haul around.
br /
br /-- The car seat fits nicely. I've only used a Graco infant seat, so can't speak to others, but it's plug-and-play simple. This was really my main criteria (I figure I'll probably sell this stroller and buy a more maneverable side-by-side when my younger daughter gets a bit bigger).
br /
br /-- It's not exactly top-of-the-line construction. The stroller costs about a fourth of a Bugaboo Cameleon and while it's fair to say you get more bang for the buck with the Graco, no one is going to mistake it for, well, a Bugaboo. It's got a very plastic look (all that plastic can have that effect) and I often wonder if something is bound to break off (in fairness, nothing has -- yet). Consider, for example, the braking system. My Bugaboo has a hand lever you pull that stops the stroller dead. The Graco has a foot lever that's supposed to fit into ridges in the back axle and brake the stroller. Sometimes the fit isn't perfect and you have to keep kicking at it until you get the stroller to stop moving.
br /
br /-- It's kinda ugly. Sure, I get comments on the stroller, but they usually go to the many amenities (above) or the stroller's sheer length. It won't win any beauty contests and Graco doesn't help by offering a choice of color/pattern combinations that make Elvis's velvet-covered living room look tasteful. You really need to see this stroller in person, if you can, before buying. The platinum model, which looked nice on the Internet, was a real dog (at least to me) in the store. My wife finally opted for the "Galore" pattern, which is offered only by Toys R Us (I think). It won't win any beauty contests, either, but it's tolerable.
br /
br /- It's reasonably priced. At under $250, this is one of the more affordable double strollers I've seen. I'm sure I'll ultimately trade up to one of the $600 City Elite or Urban Mountain Buggy side-by-side strollers when my younger daughter gets a bit bigger and the Graco's car-seat advantage falls by the wayside -- how else could my wife ever show her face in Tribeca's Starbucks? But frankly, for what I use the Graco for (walks around the neighborhood), it more than earns its keep.
br /
br /-- I dig the handlebar. The Quattro Tour has the same U-type handle that I love on the Maclaren Quest (an excellent single-kid umbrella stroller, by the way -- and also about a quarter of the price of a Cameleon). I've read complaints about the handlebar breaking off, but (knock wood) no troubles here so far. The shape definitely helps with the pushing, and it just looks cool. And, let's face it, when you're lugging two crying babies and haven't shaved in a week, you need all the cool you can get.
br /[...]
br /

I had purchased the Quattro Tour single stroller and then much to my surprise found out I was pregnant again when my first little one was 8 weeks old. This would mean my kids would be less than 11 months apart. Clearly a double stroller was needed if I was going to go anywhere.
br /
br /I researched and looked and read reviews and I was nervous about ordering a stroller I couldn't see in person. I checked my local babies r us and they did not have this stroller in stock either. I figured though that I would take the plunge and I have been nothing but thrilled.
br /
br /I know people complain about the weight but this is not an umbrella stroller - its a double stroller. The quattro tour single stroller is heavy and I don't think this one is that much heavier. I have no trouble steering this stroller...turns on a dime. I had the graco safe seat infant seat that I used in the back seat and put the older baby up front (per the instructions). I will say that the front seat couldn't recline with the infant seat in place but not sure if that is the case if you use the snug ride infant seat instead of the safe seat (the safe seat is bigger since it holds babies up to 1 year). My older boy likes being able to look around and doesn't mind being strapped in. He likes the little snack holder (perfect for goldfish crackers).
br /
br /The new baby is just now starting to ride in the back seat not in the infant seat and so far we are having no issues. I like the dual cup holders for the adults although I'm not overly pleased with the little fanny pack holder vs. a hard compartment like on the single stroller - it does hold a cell phone or some car keys. The baskets underneath are all very easy to access - especially with the drop down feature of the back basket.
br /
br /In the end this stroller is very sturdy, easy to assemble and super stylish. Easy to turn, easy to fold and fits easily into the back of my minivan (behind the seats). I'd buy it again if I had to. I[...]
br /

i really like this stroller. After doing a lot of research I bought mine for around $230 at Babies R Us. I'm sure there are nicer strollers if you want to pay an arm and a leg, but this one works great for us. We've had it for about 6 months.
br /
br /pros: it's easy to push, easy to fold, turns easily (even with one hand) cool style, nice handlebars, nice cup and snack holders for kids, fits in the trunk of my honda accord.
br /
br /cons: heavy, but, if you're buying a double stroller, it's VERY difficult to find one that is incredibly lightweight (especially if you don't want to spend a fortune)
br /
br /issues (but not deal breakers):
br /1. I do wish that the back seat was a little higher so my youngest could see more over the front seat.
br /2. if the child in the front seat wants to sleep, the seat doesn't recline very far. i don't have that problem, but just thought you should know.
br /3. my oldest is very tall. he's always in the 90th or 95th percentile for his height and his head sits above the back of the front seat and when the shade is up over his head, it almost hits. so, it's almost too big for him. he's almost 3 years old.
br /
br /all in all, i would totally recommend this stroller to anyone!

I starting researching duo strollers as soon as we found out I was expecting baby #2. After reading reviews and "test driving" tons- we picked the Quattro Tour and LOVE it! The back seat is where we are currently putting our new baby- still in her car seat while our extremely hyperactive, inquistivie, independent 2 1/2 year old rides in the front. Because he has his own cup holders and can get in and out he feels like a big boy, and actually sits down to ride in it without arguements. The cup holders all detach as well for easy clean up. Additionally, when the back seat is reclined it makes a "bassinet" for the baby to ride in which makes a perfect "changing table" when your out and about and stuck without a restroom. It steers so easily and while it is a little heavy, if you can carry those insanely heavy/awkward baby car seats- the stroller shouldn't be an issue. It collapses with one hand (really-it's not one of those that says it's one-handed collapse and then you have to fight with it, you can collapse it with one hand) on its wheels to push into the trunk.
br /I read the negative reviews and really don't know what they are talking about! I don't want to offend anyone, but they must have just had bad luck because this stroller is awesome! This stroller has so many options I'm still playing with it! I highly reccomend this stroller- totally worth the extra money!!!

a href="http://www.amazon.com/review/RWX465ZIIXDYV"Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/RWX465ZIIXDYV/a A full video review of the Graco Quattro Tour Duo stroller by the editors at Babygizmo.com.

OK, so we have two kids in diapers... fun fun fun... and getting a Graco Quattro Tour Duo was a great way of managing both our balls of energy, on our eventful outings.
br /
br /The Good: The stroller is very well constructed, smooth to operate and maneuvers rather nicely. Maneuverability was important to us as my wife I kinda smallish and was not sure is she could move in and out of isles on those 'important runs to the mall' with ease. I don't know if I should be happy or sad, but she can. In addition to maneuverability I like the origami aspect of the stroller, which has it neatly fold into something you can stuff in the back if your car. Our kids don't seem to mind being strapped in it and my daughter seems to think once she's strapped in, she can command either parent to push the stroller wherever her little heart desires - only works with the grandparents
br /
br /The Bad: it's heavy... OK once the nice little origami thing happens; you gotta lift the sucker and keep it in your car. Plus it takes up quite a bit of room, when folded. Now, that may be a good thing, given that it cuts into the space my wife would otherwise use for shopping bags.
br /
br /Bottom Line: As expected from Graco, we're very happy over all. Once we compared it with what else was out there, we think we made the right decision.
br /
br /ABOUT AMAZON... We brought the stroller and it had an issue where it was sticking when we tried to close it. Instead of messing with it, we wanted it changed. I opened the website and clicked on the link where Amazon call's you... loved it. They not only did, but were so helpful that they sent the replacement overnight - at no charge. Now we have the new stroller and the other one it on its bay back to Amazon on their dime. I thought I would have to roll my sleeves back to do the exchange, but their willingness has made me a believer. Thank you Amazon.
br /

We have a 3 and a half year old son who still likes to be carried everywhere. When we got pregnant with our daughter we started looking for tandem strollers. We took our son with us so he could try them out. We looked at several including standing strollers like the Joovy Caboose. The Joovy seemed too flimsily made and the back seat is too uncomfortable and doesn't lean back.
br /
br /We also looked at the Kolcraft Contours which is a very sleek looking stroller. We liked that it had many configurations and that it was easy to push and steer. However it was difficult to fold down. You had to take pieces off of it and it still didn't fold that flat.
br /
br /The Graco DuoGlider was just too small, as was the Evenflo Take Me Too. We wanted something that could fit our toddler son and our new born baby now and grow a little with both of them.
br /
br /After trying the Quattro in the store along side the other strollers we thought it worked the best, even though it didn't look as neat as the Kolcraft. We took a few days to think about it and research other options. We eventually decided to buy the Quattro.
br /
br /It certainly is an excellent stroller and the best one we have had, tandem or not. My wife had no problem pushing it around with both kids, even just a couple weeks after a C-section. My son can sit comfortably in front and can even lean back a little and sleep. My daughter sits snuggly in back either in the car seat or without. My son can easily hop on and off the front to take a look at something or just walk around. He always leaves his bear in the front seat when he gets out.
br /
br /The storage on the bottom is quite large and fits a lot of stuff. The handle bars on the back make great hooks for shopping bags, baby bags, and luggage. Just don't overweight them because when the passenger gets off the front it might fall backwards.
br /
br /Since my daughter was born 4 months ago we have taken it on several trips. We made sure we had it before a trip to Disney World. It survived Disney World, Sea World in Orland and San Antonio, sidewalks in California, and many trips to the mall and other shopping venues on our travels.
br /
br /It was especially helpful in the airports. We could load it up with some of our carry-ons and stroll right up to the gate and check it. It made it really easy to get the kids and luggage to the other gate between flights. When one of the ladies at the airport was unloading it at the gate she said it must be the Cadillac of strollers. Although it folds pretty small, it is a little heavy.
br /
br /My only complaints is that when folded, you have to lock the front wheels and roll it on them to roll it around, or just carry it. Also, the bar that opens the bottom storage came loose one day, but was easy enough to pop back in.
br /
br /Would certainly recommend it to anyone with at least two kids.

I was so excited to get this stroller, as we have a one year old boy and are expecting another boy next month. I had thought to use my graco snugride seat w/ this but it doesn't level and fit right in the rear seat. It is also not very secure. It clicks in but the whole seat moves around. I have ordered a new graco safeseat in ionic to match the stroller, and I am hoping that this will fit better. The front seat is small. The seatbelt seems to be secure, but the seat bottom is not long enough. It looks like he's about to fall out, forward, even though he isn't. Our one year old weighs 32 lbs. so maybe that is why? The front seat will not recline with the infant seat in the back. The front seat has to be very upright and seems squished up when using the infant seat in the back. The directions say you need the heaviest child in the front, allthough you can put one of the infant seats in the front and one in the back for twins. Without the infant seat in the back, the setup is much roomier, so I am hoping by purchacing the safeseat things will work out better. I think once we get used to it we will like it, the stroller is very nice looking and sturdy. I love the fabric. My one year old dosn't seem to mind sitting so upright, and loves the cupholders (with Cheerios in them!). He also likes the visor- he can see out the sides. It is very Big, but that is to be expected with any double stroller/carseat combo. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a double stroller / infant seat compatible stroller.

I had looked and looked for a double stroller. I have a 2 year old and was expecting my second child. Not one store in my town had a double stroller for a "test drive." So, I researched and purchased this Graco at amazon. Before the baby came, we were in Disney World with my 2 year old and my sister's 2 year old. Thankfully, we already had this stroller. It steered like a dream through all of the Disney crowds. Both boys had plenty of room, and actually enjoyed riding in it. It folds up nicely, and really isn't much bigger in our van than the single stroller. It didn't even seem like we had over 70 pounds of children in the stroller!! Overall, a GREAT stroller!

(added later)
br /I just wanted to add for those who said it is hard to steer--you need to be careful of the wheel locks on the front wheels. If they are down then the wheels lock and you cannot readily turn the stroller and I've found that just from the process of taking the stroller into and out of my car this sometimes happens. So I just unlock them and we are fine. I have a 24 pound 34 month old toddler and a 21 pound 13 month old baby and I can push the stroller around just fine even on hills.
br / (orig review)
br /We purchased this stroller before my second child was born last year--he is now 10.5 months old. My oldest was 21 months when we bought the stroller. I recall reading lots of comments before we bought it that it was heavy and large. It is heavy, but not too heavy. Sure, it is much heavier than a double umbrella stroller, but you wouldn't use this stroller in the same way. It is not much heavier than my Quattro Tour single stroller. I do not have trouble lifting it weight wise. Sometimes the length of it makes it tricky for me (I am 5'4" so my arms aren't super long). As far as size, it fits easily in my Honda CRV. In fact we can fit our old single on top of the double in the rear of the CRV. I have found it to be very handy to have this stroller. It is long--but all double strollers (other than umbrella or jogging types) are long. It fits a ton of stuff which we take advantage of regularly. I love the handles. They are great. I thought I wasn't sure of them at first but every time I am walking the hills in our zoo here in Cincinnati I am so grateful for them. I do like the straps in my single stroller better than the ones in this stroller. Also I can't cheat and put my youngest in the back seat without straps because he wiggles his way under the tray and starts to dip into the basket. =) One complaint I do have is that we got a new infant seat after buying this stroller (a Graco one) and it is hard to get in and out of the stroller at times. I had no trouble with the infant seat we had from 2005. Unfortunately due to a car accident that one had to be trashed. However I don't think all things considered that would stop me from buying this stroller. My word of advice to all of you is to consider possibly a sit and stand stroller depending on the age of your child. My oldest is now 2.5 years and doesn't like to ride in the stroller much anymore so I usually am pushing it while chasing him around. When he does want a ride it is great though.

My situation: I was expecting my second son, the boys would be 17 months apart, which meant I didn't feel comfortable with the toddler in a sit-and-stand. I loved the convenience of carrying the baby in and out of the house in his car seat (esp when sleeping). I have the Quattro Tour Travel System from my first, and wanted to re-use the car seat.
br /
br /My requirements:
br /(1) Work with the Gracco Snug Ride Infant Car Seat.
br /(2) Fit in the trunk of my 2005 Toyota Corolla.
br /(3) Be easy to maneuver (steering folding), yet study enough to withstand my clumsiness (I tend to be rough on things).
br /
br /My findings:
br /The Quatro Duo fulfilled all three requirements, but with some hesitation.
br /(1) As others mention, the car seat DOES fit in the back seat, but there is a learning curve with figuring out exactly how it fits in. Since it really is compact (for a duo stroller), it's a tight fit that takes a few tries to get right. It's easier to remove than it is to get in. The jarring involved when first learning how to snap the car seat in was not enough to ever startle my baby... but maybe my boys like that kind of motion.
br /
br /(2) The stroller has to be upside down (wheels up) and sideways, taking up the bulk of the front of my trunk, but it fits! Often the parent cup holders fall off, but they easily reattach. The original duo is too long to fit in my trunk. This one is shorter, but taller when folded, which is why it needs to be upside down to fit. I am just happy that I don't need to get a minivan/SUV to fit it!
br /
br /(3) It is very sturdy, and with the new-aged handles, it is easy to steer. I like that the cup holders can reattach so easily (and not break). The undercarriage basket is SUPER easy to "lower" and use, which is important, since given the stroller's compact nature, you can't easily access the basket with the back seat reclined. It folds up very easily and has a center latch which is easy to find and use whether folding or unfolding.
br /
br /The reason for the 4 star instead of 5:
br /- Learning Curve on attaching that car seat
br /- One problem that just occurred (after 2 1/2 months of use) is that the front, left wheel gets stuck in "permanent straight" mode and fails to swivel.
br /
br /Overall I really love the stroller. I know it's a monster, but it's so functional. I also consider it a major plus that it's much more stylish than other duo's.

We bought this for our 2 year and 5 month old boys. It works great! We have had no problems. It is very easy to fold and unfold with one hand. It's easy to steer. It's a little heavy to lift but what double stroller isn't. Love the cupholders for parents and kids and all the storage. The only con I would mention is the front seat canopy is very narrow and doesn't do a great job to cover.

We love this stroller! It's lightweight and fairly compact for a double, so it's easy to get in and out of our SUV. There is very good storage underneath- I use it at the grocery store when I need to pick up a few items. There is a total of 6 cupholders, so it's great for juices and snacks for everyone. It's easy to manuever- I can steer it with one hand. I can also fold it up with one hand. The seats tilt back very far-our 4 month old sleeps in it all the time.
br /
br /The only weaknesses I've found is that our 2 1/2 year-old is very tall for his age and his head touches both canopies. I can still use them if I need to, but it's kind of annoying for him and I find him playing with the canopy- pulling it up and down. Also, if I tilt his seat back to take a nap, he can pull the seat up by himself. Personally, I also wish this stroller had a hand brake so I could slow it down better going downhill.
br /
br /We live in a metropolitan area and I like that I can get this stroller through store enterances, on metros and it handles different surfaces well. Overall, we are very thankful we made this purchase.

This is by far the best stroller I have owned. I have done extensive research on double strollers and always came back to the conclusion that this stroller would be the best match for our family. My friend made fun of me because I researched it so much...she's since told me she doesn't want to here anything more about strollers because that's all I talked about. :) I was very hesitant to spend the money for it but I am SO thankful I did. Personally I think this is WELL worth the money.
br /
br /I love the fact that the front seat doesn't have a bar across the front, which gives my four year old the ease of getting in and out without help. It is a little heavy but DUH it's a big double stroller. If you can get past the bulkiness of it you'll enjoy it a lot. The stearing is great and I have a heavy 36 pound four year old that sits in the front seat and I never have problems pushing or turning corners with it. The canopy for the back seat is HUGE. I love the fact that it covers my baby completely.
br /
br /The only cons I have are #1 the front canopy is too short for my 4 year old...but then again he could care less, so I just removed it. Number 2 the basket underneath is OKAY. For being such a big stroller I guess I expected the basket to be really big. The only way you can get big things in and out is to lower the basket which can kind of be a pain too. That's pretty much it. I know some people would complain about the size and even when it's folded the size is still fairly big, but I knew that I wasn't buying a small stroller so for me it's not a big deal. I have a Honda Odyssey and it fits perfectly in the trunk. It does take up a lot of the space but I don't carry anything else in my trunk anyway.
br /
br /Overall my opinion is this is by FAR the best double stroller on the market. I love the color...makes it look pretty trendy and best of all it meets all of our needs and much more!!!

They finally did it! They made a double stroller that works, looks great, and can be steered by someone other then a bodybuilder. We have had this stroller for several months (purchased in late 2007). It's still going and looks great.
br /
br /Pros:
br /Steering is easy!
br /Folds down small enough to fit in my VW Jetta trunk (with rear seats down)
br /Double canopy is great for sun protection
br /Glides with ease
br /
br /Cons:
br /Heavy, very heavy.

I've had this item for three months. I bought this item when my daughter was 20 months and a new born less than a month. I purchased a used Quatro single and have been really happy with it so after much research decided this model is right for me. My older model Graco Quatro infant car seat snaps right in. I put my older daughter in the front. The front seat can still recline slightly with the infant car carrier in there. My daughter likes being able to climb on and off by herself. Some people complain about the quality of the straps but I think it's well designed and functions fine.
br /
br /I use this for walking most of the time so I can't say I would enjoy lugging this in and out of my car. It doesn't fit vertically in the back of my '06 Subaru Outback Wagon so I lay it horizontally. Doesn't leave room for much else in the trunk. I'm 5' and the height is okay.
br /I gave this a four star for the following reasons:
br /
br /-The little window to peek in on your infant is worthless. I don't even use it.
br /-The wheels started squeeking after the first day of use. I haven't tried to oil it. Sounds like this is a common occurance according to other reviewers.
br /-The basket is nice and large but it doesn't always come down easily especially if you're only using one hand. I sometimes have to battle with it to get it to come down.
br /-It does handle fairly well after you get used to pushing a double instead of a single. My daughters weight about 25lbs. and 12lbs. plus the weight of the infant car seat.
br /-I like the handle bar. I found myself hanging things off of it.
br /-The little zipper pouch is nice to hold your wallet and napkings, etc. and the little easy access side pocket is perfect for my cell phone.
br /

This stroller handles 2 children quite nicely. My wife loves it. It has lots of storage capacity. However, it is quite heavy to put in/out of the trunk. To me, it is also difficult to manuever but my wife does not seem to notice so much...perhaps because it can hold both the kids (3 and 10 months) and all their other stuff.

I love the fact that you can lay the back seat into a bassinet but still have the baby secure. Our two year old loves to ride around in this. The car seat fits okay, but does fit. You just have to make sure that it is securely fastened before on the go.

I ordered this stroller for our twins after we had beaten our old graco duo to bits. I have to say that I love how it looks. Things that bothered me about the old stroller (when I closed it the basket and first sunshade stuck out and got bent) have been fixed and I love the upgrades. HOWEVER, I just took it to the grocery store yesterday and was unable to push it one handed. Usually I shop by putting my children in the stroller and pushing them while dragging a cart to fill with items. It worked with the old duo but this one was practically impossible to steer one handed. It was very frustrating. I do like how it folds into itself though. It does stick up much higher than the other one but considering that I have a minivan to lug my stuff around in it isn't a problem. I feel like I'm behind the wheel of a tank at times but other than the one-handed steering issue it is an improvement in every way over the other duo design.

I just purchased this stroller last week. I have a two year old son and a three month old girl. I wish I would have bought this from day one. It has been wonderful when we get out and about! I highly recommend it. It turns great and is so easy to fold up. Yes, it is a little heavier than the single travel system stroller, but the benefits with two small children outweigh that. The color is great for a girl or boy!

My husband and I are now the parents of four children, ages 7, 4, 2 and 8 weeks and I was wondering if a trip to the mall would ever be possible again! Thankfully...it totally IS possible with this stroller. I did a TON of research before ordering this duo stroller and I read many, many reviews. This stroller is everything that all of the good reviews state. It is easy to manuever, even with a big kid in the front, and the huge storage basket underneath is just wonderful and extremely convenient. Not to mention all of the cup holders and the little storage pouch for parents. It is well made, seems extremely durable and just makes life easier in general when we're all out and about. The fact that I got it on sale for $164 only makes the deal that much sweeter.

OK, so I searched this site and others to find a good double stroller for soon to be here twin grandsons. Everything I found on double strollers had to do with people using it with an infant and older child. So my review is for those of you having twins. I bought this and the matching infant carseats. I had originally looked at the Kolcraft tandem stroller, but went with this due to a little bit better reviews. I do have to say I am happy with the purchase. It is a nice stroller. It is heavy, but all double strollers are going to be heavy and bulky. It was easy to assemble and was done in about 15 mins. It folds and unfolds easily. Just a twist of the handle and down it goes and unhook the latch and pull up and it locks. It is super easy to navigate and very smooth. The carseats attach fairly easily. The only complaint I have about the carseats is that the first is hooked on the front seat. Simple enough. The second has to go on the back seat, but in order to get it hooked you have to tilt the carseat just slightly forward to get the foot of it under the cover. I don't like that part because the baby's head kinda tips forward. I like that there weren't any special adapters to buy to hook on the car seats. It came with one for the front seat and the back hooks into the cup holders. The basket underneath is roomy also.
br /All-in-all I have to say I am happy with the stroller and would buy it again.

Graco thought of everything when they designed this stroller. I have owned several strollers and this is by far my favorite. My kids are 1 and 3 and they both love riding in this stroller. The 3 year old climbs in all by herself and kicks back with her arms on the armrests, just enjoying the view. My 1 year old rides in the back and when she gets tired, I just recline the seat all the way and she goes right to sleep. Each kid has a cupholder and snack holder. It folds like a dream and has a latch to keep it that way. It is pretty big, but worth it for all the other features it has. I would say if you're petite, this may not be the stroller for you. But if you don't mind getting a little bit of a workout lifting and pushing, then this stroller is a dream come true.

I bought this double stroller for a newborn and 21 month old and am thrilled. My toddler loves to climb onto the seat and sits like a little princess - she loves the carriage. Even my newborn has found one spot on the hood that she stares at contentedly for long stretches at a time - she seems very comfortable.

br /I find it easy to push, love the compartments, and am getting lots of compliments (I have the black one - ionic).

br /Highly recommended!

Graco knew what they were doing when designing this kid-friendly and parent-friendly stroller. For the price, I feel like we got an excellent 2nd stroller after the birth of our newborn. I can easily fit my Graco car seat in the back and 2 yr old in the front. He does sit up a little straighter than what looks comfortable to an adult, but he doesn't complain, especially since he has his drink holder and snack holder within easy reach. It handles great after getting used to how long the stroller is compared to my single-seat Graco. The weight is what I expected for double-stroller...a little heavy, but I'm 5'0 and can easily lift it in and out of my Honda CRV. It does take up most of the back of the car, but I can still pile plenty of things around it if I need to. I would recommend this to any parent needing a stroller for two kids. (Assembly was a snap!)

This Graco Quattro Tour Duo Stroller is a great stroller. My older son loves to sit in the front. The only problem I find with this stroller is that the seat in the front can be laid down for a nap. But all other than that a great stroller. Very easy to fold down and put in the car. We just miss one cupholder because we forgot to remove them before it went into an airplane. So just keep that in mind. I'm sure everyone will enjoy this stroller, both the kids and the parents.

I have looked around for many double strollers reading all the reviews, checking some of them out from friends or stores. I have had a Graco for my single stroller and absolutely loved it! The storage in it is amazing. I have love this stroller. Everyone says its very heavy from the other reviews but for a double stroller its pretty much how heavy you expect it. I have a three year old about 30 pounds and a 10 month old about 15 pounds and the it stears awesome, has amazing storage and so many cup holders. It truely is a great stroller. My girlfriend saw it and folded up had no idea that it was even a double because it folds up as big as our singles. The steering on it is better then any other double stroller out there plus the back folding down is great for my younger one who needs his naps on long days to the zoo!

I have two children under 18 months and this stroller is by far the best purchase I've made for them. It rides very smoothly, has tons of storage, and folds up well, considering it's size. I have a mid-size SUV and the stroller fits well in the trunk space with room for many more items. I was worried about how it would handle given the size, and it rides as well as my Grace single stroller. I would suggest this stroller to anyone with two little ones!

Overall this is an awesome stroller. It stears well, it holds everything you need for a trip to the mall, and it seems to be comfortable for two babies. (mine are 1.5yrs and 2mths.)
br /The only problem I have is that it won't fit into the trunk of my Sunfire, but that should go in my review for the car, because it really is a rediculous design for a trunk! Just be warned if you drive a sunfire that it won't fit through the opening of the trunk. It does however fit in the front seat!

This stroller was worth every cent it cost. We are able to drive our two year old and newborn around with such ease. This stroller stears incredibly well even in sand or soil. I would definitely buy it again if given the opportunity!

Then you'll love this one, too!

br /We bought our Quattro Tour Duo Stroller about a month ago, just after we had our second child. We needed something compatible with our SnugRide infant car seat, which this is, and it is now my new favorite toy.
br /
br /Pros: Its features are very, very similar to the Quatro Tour single stroller: the seats and basket fold down the same way, it's compatible with the SnugRide car seat, car seat(s) load the same way and it folds down the same way. I was amazed at how well this handles once we've got our 2-1/2-year-old in the front and our baby in the car seat in the back.
br /
br /It was definitely worth the extra money to go with this model and the new folding design. When we tested this model side-by-side with the Graco Duo Glider at the store (old folding design), we oculdn't believe what a difference the new design made. There is no way we could have fit the old one in the trunk of our Camry! This one folds down a little taller than our single-seater, but otherwise you probably couldn't tell the difference.
br /
br /Cons: This stroller is kind of heavy, but if all you're doing is taking it in and out of your car, it's not bad. Once it's up and going, its weight isn't a factor at all. Also, if you have a car seat in the back, the front seat doesn't recline at all. Neither of these has been a problem for us, but it's good to know.
br /
br /Over all, I think Graco did a great job with this stroller. For us, it was worth every penny.

I was happy with this purchase for a family member. Set up was a breeze. No complaints. Color is a little metallic. It is big but you can fit two kids in it so how small can you really make it.

I love this stroller! Yes, it's heavy, but what do you expect from a double stroller? It folds very compactly for its size, and the functionality of it is amazing. My 2-year-old son loves climbing up into his front seat by himself, and that makes things easier for me. Lots of storage, easy to steer, great-looking, easy to fold - love it.

Works great , able to be put in small trunks, Lots of storage, love the handles- they are able to put shopping bags on.

After researching double strollers for months, i finally broke down and bought the quattro tour duo in SOHO. I LOVE the colors, even better than the pictures. The storage basket under the front seat for your childs things is nice, and the main basket is nice and large. The stroller folds down compact and is so easy to open and close. i have yet to actually take it out and use it (snow EVERYWHERE!) but it seems to be exactly what we need!

I bought this stroller at a secondhand store just before my second son was born. My two boys are 15 months apart, so I figured a double stroller was an absolute must, since we'd be using it for a good long while. Overall, I'm happy with it, but only because I think it's the best of the options now available. You can spend a fortune for one of those super fancy brands, and look spectacular walking through the mall. But is it really worth the money you pay? So I found that the Quattro Tour Duo fit my needs without breaking the bank. That having been said, however, it does have some drawbacks. It's heavy. Period. Just really heavy. I'm no weakling, but it is very, very awkward to pick up and put into the back of a minivan or the trunk of a car. There's simply no good place to grab the darn thing! And forget about traveling with it! Folded up, it's nearly the size of the largest suitcase on the market. You'd have to have a good sized SUV as a rental car, and hope your luggage fits, along with this monstrosity of a stroller. Yes, it has a ton of storage space, and lots of cup holders and stuff. But I've found it necessary to buy a double umbrella stroller for travel purposes. I use this mainly for the mall, and for places that don't provide carts. It's impossible to have your two kids in this stroller and pull a shopping cart behind you, because there is simply no way to steer this thing one-handed. It's very heavy to push and turn. You literally have to put your back into it to get it to turn, especially fully loaded (a baby, a toddler, and a full diaper bag). And don't bother trying to push it on grass. Not gonna' happen. If you're going places like the zoo or an amusement park, I'd recommend something smaller, lighter, and more all-terrain. This is a mall and shopping stroller, in my opinion. However, I still give it four stars, because that's exactly what I needed it for, and it fits the bill admirably. You can fit a whole lot of shopping bags under that basket, and hang more from the handle bars! Yes, you may have to stand beside it in an elevator (because you won't fit behind it), but it all works out in the end. Considering all of the tandem double strollers on the market, I would say this is probably the best you can do. Just be sure you have a strong back and arms!

Purchased this stroller for a newborn and a 15 month old. I am now free to escape my house with this wonderful stroller. Plenty of underneath storage, cup holder for my morning coffee, and the handle is higher for my taller husband. It is heavy but I can lift it in and out of a Tahoe. No complaints.

We purchased this stroller shortly before our second child was born in October. It is very easy to 'drive', and far more agile than I expected. I can maneuver it through aisles and displays with no problem. The large wheels give it a nice ride as well. Our older son likes his seat much more than our previous stroller because it sits him up more. (There is the option of reclining, not too far but enough for him to rest.) Our infant is right in front of us and locks in securely. It is definitely longer, and feels longer when driving, but I would expect that from a double stroller. The only drawback is that it is heavy, 39 pounds, but again I would expect that with a double stroller. It still fits in the back of our suv where our single stroller fit. I am a little concerned about the shallowness of the front seat, that perhaps as my son gets older he may not be as comfortable. However, overall we are very happy with this stroller, and would recommend it to a friend.

I bought this stroller when my secon daughter was bon. My oldest was 2 and 1/4 or so at the time. I really liked the stroller. Easy to fold adn unfold. It's pretty big. It takes up about 1/2 of the back of my Passat wagon. Not outrageously heavy but all I ever did was take it out and put it back in my trunk. I'm 4'11" and by no means a body builder and I had no trouble at all. My husband (who is around 5'11") and I could both push it easily/comfortably. The handle height adjusts. It's pretty easy to click in the Graco infant carseat. I thought it was attractive. The shades are good enough. Not great but I generally find that to be the case with pretty much any stroller. It steers and "handles" very easily which was a pleasant surprise to me. Don't get me wrong, it's long so you need some room to turn but it was pretty easy to maneuver. It's not a "dream" when shopping but again, I find that to be the case with almost any stroller, including my larger "single" stroller. The kids seem comfortable in it. I didn't use it very long because my oldest just wouldn't sit it in (my husband always let her out!) for very long so I just gave up on the double. But I really did like it and have leant it to my sister-in-law to use. The ONLY thing that used to annoy me about it was I found the mechanism to drop the under stroller bin (the more accurate word is escaping me right now) to be counter-intuitive and often pulled it off track/out of "socket." But that was always easily remedied by my husband. For whatever reason, I did not have the same issue with the mechanism used to drop teh seat back (which basically operates the same as the under seat basket) - don't ask me why! The storage under the stroller (hard to get to when the back seat is reclined - an issue I think you'd find with any stroller) is huge. Overall I was very happy with this stroller.

Graco Quattro Tour Duo Stroller in Soho
br /
br /The advertisement of one hand to open to fold is the truth. I am amazed at how easy it is to open this up and fold it down with one hand. The stroller is a little large in size but that allows for 2 children lots of gear. Our two year old grandson is a big boy, tall close to 40 lbs now, this stroller allows for a 50 lb child which will give his parents a longer time to get to use it. The Soho color style is very nice also. Really glad we bought this one as it handles steers very well also.

After shopping around and reading reviews, I've decided to stick with the Graco brand. I had a Graco with my 2 older kids and loved it. I really love this stroller! It was easy to assemble (I did that myself), it pushes great, looks great, has enough compartments holders for me, huge basket underneath, it is bigger and heavier than my old double stroller(it is at least 9 yrs old), easy to fold, a little on the heavy side to lift when folded and fits in my van without a problem. Overall, I am very happy with this stroller.

We bought this stroller for our newborn and 17 month old boys and we love it! It is heavy but folds down easy and almost as small as our old stroller. It steers so well and my oldest loves riding in it. The back seat lays all the way down and the bottom of it folds up to make a carriage for the newborn which I didn't even know it did till we got it. The basket is hard to get to when the back seat is down but I don't use it so much anyways. The front seat also holds up to 50lbs and back up to 40lbs. We use this stroller everywhere...mall, walmart, target, and on walks. It is longer than it looks in the photos. Worth the investment if you have two small children and want independance to get out with them both comfortably!

We purchased this stroller to replace our Sit and Stand. We thought it would be nice to have a full seat with snack and cup holders for our older child instead of a bench seat. I like the large and easily accessible storage basket. Compared to the sit and stand, this stroller manuvers much easier. It doesn't really feel like I am pushing a double stroller. The one drawback we noticed is that this stroller folds larger than the sit and stand. We have a corolla and ford focus and we have to take the front wheels off to get the stroller in our trunk and it is still a tight fit. I would definitely recommend this stroller especially if the children are close in age. Our boys are 2 1/2 and 7 months. If they were further apart we might have kept the sit and stand but they are close enough that we will be able to use the double stroller for a while.

I have to say that I love this stroller. Yes, it is heavy, but it's a double stroller, what do you expect. And, it's a very sturdy stroller. I have 4 children, the oldest being only 4 years old and this was purchased after my 4th child was born. All 4 of my children have ridden in the stroller at one time or another, and I think at some point I've had all 4 in the stroller at one time. Bad day at the zoo and we needed to get out fast! They all love it. It is very easy to steer, easy to fold, has a large basket underneath that holds enough for my crew. Sometimes if you have too much in the basket you have to wiggle the drop down back a little to get it back up (but, I presume that's my fault for overloading the basket). :) The major difference I've noticed between this and the Duo-Glider is the reclining ability of the back seat. With the Duo-Glider, you need to use both hands to lower the seat and it goes from straight up to laying flat, no in between. With this stroller, you can use just one hand to recline the back seat and there are positions in between straight up and flat. That's the main reason I chose this stroller over the Duo-Glider. Anyway, there's my two cents...I have no complaints.

This stroller is HUGE and HEAVY. It consumes the back of our SUV and by my guess wouldn't fit in the back of a regular car. But... it can't be beat for cruising the neighborhood. A (Graco) car seat fits perfectly in the back and our 2 1/2 year old up front.

Works well with a toddler and infant or with 2 toddlers. Of course, its harder to push with 2 kids in it but once you get the hang of it, its good and also makes for a great workout. A little hard to steer on crowned walkways. Worth the money.

We bought this for our (tall) 3 yr old and newborn. We walk everywhere, so it was important to us to have a nice sturdy double for the kids. It does everything we expected, but I'm the main one to use it and have found it extremely hard to lug around. Things I've noticed:
br /-- I'm 5'8" and strong, and I really have to lean in to the turns.
br /-- I've NEVER been able to steer this behemoth one-handed like some other reviewers; the only way possible is if we put the toddler in back and the newborn in front.
br /-- It easily tips backward if you happen to use the handlebars to carry bags like we do. I had put two moderately heavy bags of groceries on the handles to walk home from the grocery store and when our older one hopped out of the front, the whole stroller tipped over backwards. Not good!
br /-- The basket only holds a diaper bag and one bag of groceries. If you try to put more in there, you really have to wrestle the basket open and then brace yourself to close it back up again.
br /-- It weighs about 40lbs! Add a 40lb toddler, a 10lb baby and a diaper bag and you're pushing almost 100lbs.
br /It's a decent stroller, but for the money we spent I'd get a Maclaren double or spend a bit more for a nice light Peg Perego. Or if the weight isn't an issue, get a Jeep double -- we've got a Jeep single that's still going strong after 3+ years.

After reading all the reviews, I decided to buy this stroller in august 2007 and was very pleased, my kids, who are 28 and 15 months now, love that stroller, sure it's heavy but very comfortable for the kids, for me it's very very important, and stylish. I have compliments every time on the stroller looks. I'm very happy, the kids are always ready to jump on the stroller so thank you amazon for selling that amazing and fashion stroller!!

After a lot of shopping around, my husband and I decided to go with the Graco Duo Glider. We are very pleased with the product for a few reasons. My husband and I are both very tall people and this stroller is nice and tall... and not as long as the other double strollers we have seen. When we got the stroller in the mail, my husband figured it would be a hassle to put together, but it was really easy! Even with a toddler trying to "help" Daddy. The last reason I really like it is that our graco baby car seat fits right in. Sure, the stroller is heavy, but it is a double stroller! They are all heavy. This stroller glides nicely and easy to move around corners. My husband and I are very excited about this purchase and would recommend it to anyone in need of a double stroller.

This was the only one that works with the Graco infant car seat we already had, and it works fine, however it is HUGE and very heavy. I still can't really figure out how to open it and collapse it without my husband showing me again and again.... If you do not want something extremely bulky and heavy, do not buy this.
