Theres no comparison really, but they are pretty good with Facebook advertising Mockingbird is flimsy and many parents report that the frame breaks easily, but for this price thats understandable. Britax B-Safe 35, B-Safe 35 Elite, Endeavours (with adapter). You fashioned it perfectly; in all the ways that I would have done if I had written it myself However, while it was a well-made stroller I quickly sold it as I realized that way too heavy and bulky and pretty useless for two kids that arent twins due to seat configurations and weight limit. How is the push/steering? I realize this review is a bit old, but we were just trying the Gazelle in the store, and my biggest concern is lifting the car seat out. Required fields are marked *. I am so torn between this one and the Vista. If you get side by side like Bugaboo Donkey the weight slightly distributes but you still have to push the same amount of kids weight. Thanks in advance! The only ones I have found are all-terrain jogging strollers like the BOB or the Thule Glide which I cannot lift and I cannot fit into my car. There are a few that can have an infant car seat attached to it (but none are compatible with Cloud Q because this car seat is too heavy for most adapters (it was my issue as well) and then you can use the space underneath to store the other car seat. Ill update when he decides its cool enough for him I guess (1 year later its still a no-go). I have an extremely skinny 2-year-old and hes 25 lbs but most kids his age are about 28-30 lbs. They will have an age difference of 21 months. Im curious if they are plastic and how would you compare them to the vistas wheels? Its also durable with a large canopy that keeps the skin safe. But I have a small, lightweight, maneuverable stroller for airports and malls (smooth surfaces) that Im getting tired of using on the uneven sidewalks to the parks. My husband and I are moving to Switzerland in February. When I absolutely dont need it though or when I add the second seat, I detach the basket and theres still plenty of room in the underneath basket. Our toddler would then walk alongside or use the clip on board to stand on. I personally havent tried any other configuration, because my toddler would have facing backwards when sitting down or facing me instead of the road, so this works best for us . It can be gate-checked though. Its not only suitable for sunny days; your baby would be home and dry when it rains. The Cybex Gazelle S stroller sports a nice design (Ive had other parents give it glowing compliments). Can I attach a Maxi Cosi car seat to it ? I am prepping for baby number one, and am really liking the Cybex Priam. Our toddler car sest is a Joie every stage fx so quite a beast! Thats such a coincidence that youre planning on moving to Italy and lived in Poland as well . I really love how narrow the Ypsi is (only 20 inches) and also not too heavy + directly from Italy. Quite frankly even though we have ZOE Twin as well (which is lighter), my husband keeps saying we just need to get a second Babyzen Yoyo because theres always an issue with double strollers in terms of space, portability and weight Have you found any child cup holder/snack trays that work for the Gazelle? Even when Im not going shopping, theres usually something extra I like to put in there like a bag or diaper bag. We have the whole Vista set (including the rumble seat) and now we just found out we are moving to Switzerland before the baby comes. But, once your newborn is able to sit its definitely better to get a side by side stroller (unless you live in places like Italy, then you wont be able to enter anywhere with it. 1. I was wondering if you have on a special cover for the Cybex Cloud Q carseat? Also a boy mom, cat mom, wife, and full-time entrepreneur. Cybex Gazelle S has comfortable seat compared to other strollers. Hi! Blood everywhere, toddler got a scar from it and this is basically when I realized that maybe tandem strollers arent always the best. I was about to purchase UppaBaby Vista And came across your review. Thanks for the review. Ive never used carseat adaptors or put a car seat on my Yoyo. You referred to the Priam a couple of times in this review, do you have any specific opinions on it? While expensive, Cybex Cloud Q carseat is the best on the market. You might need to check if the adapters are the same for EU car seats if you bought the stroller here, because this stroller is only compatible with Primo Viaggio 4-35 Nido car seats. I dont go out in the sun without wearing sunscreen. But again, depends where you live. Any other configuration with toddler seat and Cloud Q reclined? I know, Im not even on baby 1, and Im thinking about this stroller if/when baby 2 comes . The handlebars grip is also easy to push with one hand, making it easy to me to be in absolute control of the stroller no matter what. The canopy also comes with a mesh window that your baby can breathe through on really hot days. You can use a seat in a very reclined position once theyre a bit older, but not in the double mode. Cybexs car seat doesnt cause these issues. Tandem strollers cannot recline when in the double mode Im afraid (goes for all of them). Do you have to use both buttons at the same time to get it out? That said, since two kids weigh significantly more than one it wasnt extremely easy to lift it, but we actually solved the issue by getting a kid board. I cannot say much about the kid buggy board, because my toddler refuses to use it and its been months. Ill be real about pushing Cybexs strollers are super easy to push, but unless the stroller has a motor (only their Priam single stroller does) its hard to push two kids no matter what because theyre simply heavy. I have been undecided as weather to go with the U.B Vista V2, or the Cybex Gazelle S. Hi there, lovely review. Id stick to a more portable toddler car seat to be honest. I read online that some people only recommend it for kids up to 2.5 years as they might get too tight especially with a footmuff in winter. Its removable and falls into the category of extra-large stroller baskets. For portability I recommend Nachfolger it folds so small you can put it under anything with 2 seats on it no problem. Vista never worked when your kids are different ages, unless you want to keep a newborn on the bottom and not close to you, your older one wants to sit facing you (not gonna happen with mine) and you have a small child since the Rumble seat has lower weight limit, so the older kid always has to ride up top, which is really not something you want when they climb in and out. . Is it handy in Restaurants and shops.. My needs are a bit different than the average commenters my second child has some medical complications that require him to come home on oxygen, so Im looking for a stroller that is large enough to accommodate him (most likely in his infant car seat), as well as his equipment. Thank you so very much for this clear and concise review. Cybex Aton and Cloud Q series (with included adapter) Your 1 year old will ride in a normal seat thats included. Just like on any other Cybex stroller Im able to use Cybexs car seat without any adapters with an adaptable 3-in-1 travel system. Thank you! Have you used the Cybex warranty? I never thought that a pet can be adjusted in the double stroller especially the cat who cant even sit on my lap. Of course, the comfortability and safety of the stroller are the first things anyone should consider. Although the biggest drawback and dealbreaker is the seating configuration for newborn + toddler. Cant tell whether its plastic or hard rubber (even asked my husband now to see what he thinks and he also cant tell), but either way theyre very sturdy. Have you ever used this stroller. In fact, were moving back to Europe in a few months and we decided to bring Evenflo stroller wagon and Babyzen Yoyo only. Lots of questions were asked about traveling and living in Europe with it if youre going to live in Europe or need a stroller for traveling then I wouldnt get a double stroller at all just two single ones or a stroller wagon thats slim enough youll thank me later. Would this configuration work with the cybex Gazelle S? Are you talking about a sunshade for it? I would also make grocery runs with it as well. The advantage of Cybex is that you can attach Cybex Cloud Q carseat to it without an extra annoying special adapter its an expensive car seat but reclinable so baby can sleep in it like in the bassinet (which is super handy for carrying the baby around, for restaurants, etc., since you cant really carry the bassinet without the stroller). After using this stroller for months Im pretty satisfied with it, but there are a few things Im certain that you should know about it, so make sure you read the ending. Oh, you can move the handle first, before taking the baby out with it. Since you live in Shanghai you need the European-style car seat, so you would either need to break off the chest clip, or buy a European car seat. We have finally decided to sell our double Uppababy Vista for all the same reasons as you. Im actually going back and forth between Cybex Priam and its lighter/more compact counterpart the Cybex Mios. I know you also live in Italy before, so if you have any advice, Id appreciate it sooooo much! One thing I noticed is that when your shopping basket isnt filled with something heavy or removed, its a bit hard to lift the stroller to the curb. Now Im kind of torn between the two. I am mostly concerned about uneven roads and sidewalks that are in Latin America (like horrific worse than cobblestone) so that I can go on long walks and get exercise. Also, now that my children weigh nearly 60lb combined, its becoming harder to push and impossible to pop up onto kerbs. Ill be real: toddler walking alongside the stroller with baby and a giant car seat sounds like an ideal, yet unrealistic version of events Whats great about this stroller is that you can put Cloud Q carseat on it and this one reclines so it takes away the need for the bassinet and is very convenient. Yes, it can I was actually worried about it too, but it works fine. Its easy and quick to switch things up a bit for your babys comfort. Youd need a Cybex bassinet or Cybex Cloud Q car seat that reclines flat. So far I had no issues with any terrain we tried cobblestones, uneven pavement with holes and all good. I saw the Cybex but dismissed it because I thought it would be the same as the Vista. Bonus points for one that would allow for my 4yo daughter to hop in for a ride every now and again, too. Thanks for being so thorough and answering questions! Also, with the Gazelle, if I were to use the extra shopping basket in the top position and a parent facing infant car seat in the bottom position, would I still be able to see the baby in his seat, or would the shopping basket block my view? You could technically do it with Gazelle as well, but it just sounds very frustrating. Maxi Cosi Mico Max 30, Mico 30 and Mico Max Plus (with included adapter) Going up the curb is hard but its the case with any double stroller because of the weight (one thing that solved it for us was getting a buggy board and the pole that comes with it helps with that). It makes it MUCH easier to put your foot on that pole to lift the stroller. My husband will be working and I want to be able to leave the house with 2 kids! Hence why in Mexico for example I see a lot of parents just traveling with two Babyzen Yoyo+ strollers instead of one double stroller. Do you feel the same way about this stroller being an all terrain stroller vs the vista? Or is there another stroller you would recommend that would be better for this scenario? In terms of the seat size my 2 year old fits just fine. So you love this stroller for two kids, but wouldnt recommend it if living in Europe? Do you know if this is true? In the mode when the front seat is world-facing, and the upper seat parent facing, is it possible to fully recline the upper seat whilst keeping the lower seat upright? It comes with a pole you attach to the frame and even when we dont use the board we leave it there. Or would you just use the Cybex gazelle seat for the infant in a very reclined position? Hes way taller than kids his age so Id say you can use it up until the older is 4 or so (not that you must need a stroller until that age really, hopefully at least). Speaking of the basket, this stroller has a shopping basket that can hold up to 28 lbs of shopping items. Its easy to take apart and reassemble, and you dont need any help to do so. Theyre both great, but it depends on where do you live. Now, after I had this configuration on Gazelle and any other stroller I tried I quickly gave up on it on uneven terrains, and having spent some time in Colombia I surely wouldnt recommend it for you. Hi, I didnt have a Cybex car seat but I had a nuna pipa with my Babyzen and yes you can fold the stroller with the adaptors on! Baskets on both strollers were comparable in size Id say. That was my personal mistake before my first child was born as I wanted to plan ahead. You mentioned that the seat reclines flat, is it flat enough to handle an on-the-go diaper change? No complaints so far, we also took it on jungle roads and sandy spots in Mexico. ), Montessori Floor Bed for Toddlers: Pros & Cons (+ Best Models). Im Anna. Thanks for the great review! Ann. Read more HERE! Thankyou xx. Ypsi is not a bad stroller, but for this price isnt ideal because of the toddler+newborn configurations (no tandem stroller has ideal configurations, otherwise theyre too long). I know its a popular one in Europe and seems price-attractive, but the infants head is not protected on sides at all due to its design. We will be living in a brand new apartment complex with ramps/accessible doors. Which footmuffs are compatible with Cybex Gazelle S? Could you tell me what the wheels are like? Maybe these same adaptors would actually work with the Cybex Cloud as well? A double stroller would be too much of a pain for Italy. Id advise against Maxi Cosi car seat. Buy two small strollers. I would get a different stroller than Vista for just one baby, in the worst case you sell it and get a different thing later. Im very into this pushchair myself could you possibly tell me the seat measurements please backrest, width and depth and full length of the seat from head to end of foot rest when lying flat. Your apartment might have a ramp, but its not uncommon to have steps to the elevator in many apartments, Ive even been to a pediatricians office in a building like that and youll be swearing at the heavy double. Its even smaller in width, a toddler can get in and out by himself while the younger sibling rides, and its MUCH easier to maneuver and push than tandem style double strollers. With strollers in this configuration, the older/heavier child needs to be on the top seat, otherwise, it creates an uneven weight distribution and its impossible to push on uneven terrain. You can only do a carseat on top when the toddler seat is facing the car seat, so backward no toddler would stay seated that way. Technically speaking it is, but my toddler was 38 tall when I bought it and fit just fine. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends against routine sleeping in sitting devices as the angle can cause suffocation and damage to airways (I explained it and researched it further when reviewing Doona stroller). No double stroller will be able to just stand in most restaurants without being folded to be honest, theyre just too big, so we just take the car seat out, fold the stroller and use a restaurant high chair for a toddler. 3. One stroller caught my eye, and I couldnt wait to get my hands was a new release from Cybex Gazelle S stroller. Since your kids will be 21 months apart the older will want to walk and run a lot at this age, so I often feel like for short trips dragging a double is a waste of energy (we really used double regularly until mine was 23 months, now only if were out all day) and then he occasionally decides to drink his juice in it and sit down before he runs off again. In this case, Ill be real: dont buy a double stroller at all. While everyone does it in the US its simply not safe to go on walks and around town in a standard infant car seat for longer than 2h a day. Im currently looking to find a double buggy as second baby is due this year when my first will have just turned 2. However, after reading your review, I finally feel I have all the answers and insight I need.. About the upright position no, its slightly tilted but my toddler doesnt mind, he pulls himself up using the handle is he wants to see more. Oh one more thing, in your experience can you fold the Babyzen up without removing the carseat adaptors? Im about to sell my Uppababy Vista for exactly the same reasons. Im primarily interested in the uppababy vista because it has space to fit my giant toddler car seat in the storage area while also attaching our cybex cloud q infant car seat. Cybexs seats are always known for great functions, one of which is a big recline. 4. Im considering this stroller but Im wondering how well it handles on rough terrain? This list includes the shopping basket, rain cover, car seat adapters (for non-Cybex cars seats), and cup holder. Always responding to comments Any advice would be so appreciated! The leatherette handlebar ensures that I have a firm grip on the stroller. But for Cybex car seat + seat no extra attachments are needed because the stroller comes with it. There is no stroller without cons theres always something that can be improved. Do you need to bring this particular giant toddler car seat with you? Or a cat actually . I got mine on Albee Baby. The Cybex Gazelle S stroller has an XXL sun canopy that you can extend (I often take it to the max) to shield your baby from dangerous rays in sunlight. I love adjustable handlebars because my partner and I can use the stroller whenever we want. One of my favorite things to do in Italy was going to all these cafes and restaurants and no way a double stroller will fit any restaurants because its too long and bulky, and lifting it to public transportation with kids on is also a pain. For the newborn either a bassinet or car seat if you get Cybex CLoud Q it reclines and then you wont need a bassinet unless you want to use a stroller for overnight sleeping. I am wandering what seats/ attachments I will need. We tried it with a cybex seat, and it seems the only way to get it out is by pressing the two buttons on the side and lifting it completely out, then setting the seat somewhere to grab it by the handle. I can only speak for Cybex Cloud Q car seat as this is what we had and used with Gazelle S, but it works the same way as on Priam or other models (video here: https://youtu.be/_kyGVxNAjg8). I assume its for the taxis since you dont have a car, right? With how the seats are placed kids will be kicking each other nonstop when sitting in front of each other and you lose the basket entirely. Its sports top-quality fabrics and the premium design is down to a sturdy aluminum frame and simple color of your choice navy, black, grey and taupe (I got navy).
