Product Description The best, lightest, most maneuverable Caboose yet! The Caboose Ultralight is so compact, maneuverable and lightweight you might forget that it's a tandem stroller! At a mere 21 pounds the Caboose Ultralight is 20% lighter weight than the original model and far lighter than most double strollers. The Ultralight is also ultra-maneuverable because it has sealed ball bearing wheels. (If that doesn't mean anything to you; it is faster and smoother. Think rollerblades and skateboards.) Moms and Dads will really love the neoprene Cool Essentials Parent Organizer too. It has plenty of room to store your keys, cell phone, etc and the cup holder will help keep your drinks cool. And, the deluxe sun canopy offers more protection for your children on sunny days out. Features: Universal car seat attachment works with most infant seats (see chart on photos page) Lightweight aluminum frame, 20% lighter than the Original Caboose Overall stroller weight: 21 lbs Oversized canopy with sun visor extension Includes Essential Neoprene Parent Organizer Patented Stand-On Tandem design with padded rear seat allows standing child to take a rest Locking, front swivel wheels make the Ultralight super maneuverable Deluxe, fully adjustable 5-point harness in front seat and 3-point harness on rear bench seat Comfortable three-position front seat with adjustable footrest Foam covered handles for both parent and rear standing child New, larger storage basket under seat with elastic sides for easy access Super compact trigger fold design Linked brakes Child tray with cup holder Appropriate for children from 6 months to 45 lbs.

GREAT STROLLER August 27, 2010 Phyllis Crowl I chose this stroller based on other amazon reviews and it has proved to be a wonderful choice. It is light-weight and the grandchildren love it. It has recently made a trip to Disneyland and Seaworld. The 3 year old loves the sit/stand option, and the 7 mo old was very content. Great Stroller!
Great tandem stroller August 7, 2010 Jen Bookworm (Michigan) This stroller is everything it says - lightweight, easy to maneuver, stylish, practical. Love it for my 3-year-old and 8-month-old. Very nice quality. The larger, moveable sunshade is probably my favorite feature. Rides great - I am happy with my purchase.
Great stroller but here are the cons August 2, 2010 Rebecca I have three kids and have used this stroller for over 2 years.
1) The tray is near impossible to get off and after a while you will grow to hate that tray and might not even use it.
2) Not a quick in and out of the car stroller. You have to fight it a bit.
3) Does not recline enough for a nap for your baby and the seat is not very padded. I am getting ready to purchase the extra pad for it online. Oh, When the seat in reclined the older child has very little room to sit.
I have plenty of good things to say about the stroller but I figured I just give the negatives b/c you probably already the know the good things.
So glad that we got this! July 31, 2010 Crestviewer (CO, USA) I looked at a lot of double strollers when I was pregnant with our second child. I landed on the Joovy Caboose Ultralight and am so glad that I did.
My girls are 23 months apart. My older daughter didn't ride much in the stroller even before we had the second so I was immediately attracted to the sit and stand models because it fit her independent personality because it allows her to get on and off my herself and decided whether she wants to sit or stand.
I was attracted to the joovy sit and stand because it is so compact. Some of the double strollers I have seen are so big that I cannot image pushing them through a lot of stores. And this one maneuvers pretty easily too.
I decided to go with the ultralight model instead of the normal caboose because I decided that I did not need to be lifting or pushing any more weight than I already am with my girls! And I liked that the ultralight has the Cool Essentials Parents Organizer included (a $25 value) - the organizer is one of the coolest and most useful thing!
The only problem we have had with the stroller is that it barely fits in the truck of of our Civic especially when you have the infant car seat adapter on it. So if you are looking at this stroller you might want to check the dimensions to make sure it will fit in your trunk.
Had this stroller for a year and still love it! July 19, 2010 M. Person I bought this stroller nearly a year ago, when my baby was a newborn and my older daughter was 2.5. I had a Graco infant carrier that fit snugly with the universal adapter, but now my baby sits in the front with the snack/cup holder tray. I have been everywhere with this stroller--airport, Disneyland, zoo, malls, walks in the park--and I still love it as much as when I bought it. The parent organizer is the perfect size for my wallet, sunglasses, cell phone, iPod, keys, and water, plus extras like Kleenex and hand sanitizer for the kids. Then I stick my spare diaper & changing pad in the basket underneath the seats, and I'm good to go all day! In the airport, I actually stick the baby in my Ergo and load up the front seat with our carry-on luggage.
My 3.5 year-old loves this stroller as well. It's true that with the infant carrier on the front seat, she couldn't quite sit up straight on the back, but that never seemed to bother her. She loves having the option to sit, stand, or walk when we're out. I get compliments on this stroller nearly every time I use it.
I read many reviews before settling on this stroller, and it's important to know that this is not an umbrella stroller or a jogging stroller, and it doesn't have the conveniences of both. But I wasn't looking for a side-by-side stroller because it seems like those never fit anywhere, and I don't like the design that has one child sitting behind and practically underneath the other child. This stroller is light, but long (which it has to be, since it's carrying two children). It doesn't exactly turn on a dime, and I have to slow down a bit more to go up and down curbs without a ramp (again, because it's carrying nearly 60 pounds of children). But I've never had any problem with the wheels like I read in other reviews.
I drive a mid-size SUV and it takes up half the floor space in my trunk. It can get smaller if you remove the canopy and tray but I've never needed to do that.
I would absolutely buy this stroller again, and I have recommended it to several friends. It is exactly what I wanted in a double-stroller.
