How about doing the Citymini GT with no carseat adapter? I don't know about you, but both my kiddos outgrew their Snugrides by 6m. So glad I didn't factor carseats into my double stroller decision!

Also, a note on weight limits - kids slow way way down on weight gain once theyre toddlers/ preschoolers. Also, stroller weight limits are not like car seats - the stroller won't fail catrastrophically at the weight limit. European strollers ESP tend to be tested to 33 lbs because that's all that's required but will safely hold much more and will push just fine too.

Wow...thanks again ladies!!! The Stroll Air My Duo looks amazing!!! I have to see it in person before we make a final decision. I have my list just need to find time to go!!! Thanks again for all the helpful hints & advice.

Can anyone enlighten me a little on the air tires? I'm curious as to why those are better or worse?

Air tires add a little weight to the stroller and can go flat if punctured. The upside is that air tires have more give then foam-filled or EVA tires. More give is a bonus to the stroller's suspension making the ride softer for rider and pusher.

Did you end up picking a double? I'm going through the same decision.
