Customer Review: Fine at first, then it gets worse
Summary: 2 Stars
I bought this stroller for our twin daughters when they were 8 months old. I chose the Jeep Traveler Tandem mainly because of its compact size -- it folds to fit easily into the trunk of my Honda Accord.
At first, I liked the stroller. It felt rugged, had decent storage, a parent cup holder, and of course, the compact size. It also steered pretty easily in tight spaces such as department stores.
But the longer I own it, the more I hate it.
PROS
1) Good price for a tandem stroller.
2) Fits into a regular sedan trunk.
3) Parent cupholder.
4) Okay storage space underneath.
5) Both seats recline really nicely.
CONS
1) The sun shades on this stroller are basically useless. The front shade barely provides any protection, and both shades constantly fall down, especially the back one. The worst part it, the rear shade is constantly in the way. When it's folded back out of the way, it covers the storage basket underneath, making it impossible to reach inside the basket without struggling to get the bulky shade out of the way.
2) The shoulder straps for the kids are very difficult to adjust. The strap that goes between the baby's legs doesn't adjust at all, so it's now pulling up on the baby.
3) Though lighter than other tandem strollers, the Jeep Traveler Tandem is still pretty heavy for me to haul up into the trunk.
4) My biggest complaint is the steering. It was fine when my kids were light (13 pounds each), but now that they're over 20 pounds each, the stroller is a major pain to steer. It's so hard to push sometimes that I think I've left the brake on when I haven't. Absolutely awful.
I did like that it's a budget-friendly stroller, but I guess you get what you pay for. We've had this for 7 months and I've hated for the past 3 months, so really I got 4 good months of use out it. Waste of money in the end. Now I have to find something else that will last a while. I should have spent the money on a great twin stroller to begin with.
