Saturday finally comes – your weekend. You've been looking forward to it since about 8:10 a.m. last Monday morning. But before you can get to the relaxation, you’ve got to knock out a batch of errands you couldn’t get to during the week. So family time begins with a few hours of dashing around town with the kids in tow.

Enter... The Double Dash Stroller

Phil and Teds Dash double is a tandem stroller that will streamline your schedule.

• Advantage one: it is light weight (23 lbs), so lifting it in and out of the vehicle at each stop won’t tucker you out or slow you down.
• Advantage two: it quickly folds and unfolds with one-handed ease.
• Advantage three: Getting the children situated is a simple snap or two, literally.
• Advantage four: Each seat is multi-positional, so the baby can lie flat and snooze, while big sister sits up tall and helps you pick out that party dress.

And we won’t even detail the generous storage; ergonomic handling; large, smooth-roll wheels that make it joggable, too; and the ability to accessorize your buggy with cool goodies from Phil and Ted!

Busy parents looking for a tandem to increase their efficiency, and are willing to pay a little more for quality, will want to consider the Dash from Phil and Teds. The tandem design gets you through doorways with room to spare, too. Don’t make running errands a mad dash – make it a productive Dash!

Attention to the details that matter most to consumers is often what sets better manufacturers apart from the field. Peg Perego’s Aria Twin stroller resonates a melodious chorus of them. The most obvious one while looking at this side by side unit is that one seat is bigger than the other. Twins happen, to be sure, but most often parents have an infant/toddler combination. With the Aria, everyone gets the room they need, and the overall width of the unit remains slender enough to get through doors, etc., without hassle.

The larger side also accommodates the compatible infant car seat. The detailed delight continues with extra padded seats that recline individually and can be covered fully with ratcheting hoods. Good storage, cup holders for parent and children, and a sturdy foot rest for bigger kids, continue the convenience. The light but sturdy aluminum frame, lightweight padding and other materials, add up to a mere 21 pounds! If parents might pick one detail they overlooked, it was in the wheels, which tend to ride a bit rough over uneven terrain.

Parents who carry their stroller at times, or pull it up stairs, will choose the Peg Perego Aria Twin for its light weight. If you have two kids at two different sizes, the 60/40 seats make good sense. The stroller bears a price tag higher than comparable units, though some of the difference is made up by the sturdy unit’s longevity.

The Maclaren Twin Techno could be called the Boy Scout Special, since their motto is “Be Prepared,” and that is what the TT will help you to be. Like the Scouts, this stroller originates in the U.K., where the wet and whacky weather undoubtedly influenced its design and features.

It starts with a rust-resistant high grade aluminum frame, bolstering sturdy construction throughout. The weather consciousness continues with independent water resistant hoods, not simply canopies, and a complete rain cover! The wheels now feature hub caps, to keep water off of the hardware, preventing corrosion. All this is part of a stroller with top of the line features, from removable and washable seats, ergonomic handle, high performance wheels, and quick fold design. The generous storage will allow you to “be prepared” and even comes with mosquito nets tucked inside! This side by side is narrow enough to fit through standard doorways, though some may find it makes the seats a bit tight for larger children.

Outdoorsy families love the Maclaren Twin Techno for its all-weather readiness, but also for its quality suspension and high grade wheels that help take the bumps out of the trail. The longevity this unit provides will more than offset its slightly higher retail price. If there’s rain in the forecast, perhaps there’s a Twin Techno in your future.

If your stroller usage ranges from mild to wild, you need a versatile unit that offers convenience, durability, and an athletic build. That’s what InStep thinks, and they designed the Suburban Safari 2 side by side jogging stroller with your needs at the top of their list. Some days, you put both kids in it and, well, stroll down to the park. Your toddler hits the playscape while little sister gets her nap in the well-padded, reclined seat. She’s protected from the sun by the generous hood, and from the bugs by the mesh net. Mild. Some days you put on your running gear, secure the kids with the five-point harnesses, lock the wheels for straight, and put in five mile run on the bike/hike trail that isn’t without a few fun bumps, twists and turns. Wild!

Either way, the Suburban Safari 2 delivers a quality ride to your little ones, and a comfortable push for you. The soft and resilient 12-inch tires, the tough steel frame, the adequate storage, the padded bar in front of the children, and the 100 lb weight limit all gurarantee the pleasure in any purpose.

You get the picture, and if this picture looks like your family, this stroller will meet your needs. It is a bit heavy, at 33 lbs, but that’s about the industry norm for a jogging stroller. The price of this unit is well below market, however, making it one of the best budget joggers out there.
