I bought this stroller since my daughter is 37" tall and I have a newborn. Most strollers do not fit my daughter's height or it's a tight fit. There is room to grow in this stroller. Plus she loves lying down in it. The shades are great since they go down really far. I like the pockets in the back to stuff a blanket in, for example. Also it's a good height for my husband who is 6' 4" and me at 5'6". It's only 26 pounds so I can fold it easily and put it in the car without too much trouble. I'm not a weight lifter so this is good for me!
Some things that I wish were different are:
A better basket underneath. I had to put my things in to the side and out through the side, which can be a struggle. Seems like most strollers have problems with baskets though. I would also have given this stroller nicer wheels. So far we have not had a problem with them, but if they had rubber tires I think the ride would be much smoother. I wish it came with the belly bars and cup holders, but they are sold separately. I will not be buying the belly bar though since another reviewer wrote that she could not fit through doors with it on. It's not a big deal since my daughter has always held her snack in a baggie and her cup too. If you have a wide child he or she will probably not be comfortable. My daughter is tall and on the thin side. I want to say she's "regular" size since she's not too thin, just "kid" thin. She has very little side room.
Compared to the previous model it doesn't appear huge. It's definitely NOT for jogging, but for brisk walks instead.
I like the jogger for the tall factor, it turns on a dime, and is lightweight. I even got a compliment on it this past weekend, which is always nice. Plus the price is nice. :)
I hope this helps someone out there looking for a double stroller!
