I LOVE this stroller!! It was my biggest and best investment for baby #2, and is practically worth it's weight in gold! It is the only thing that allowed me to venture out with two kids 17 months apart. I used this stroller from the day my daughter was born (2003), and still use it today. The kids love it, and it is sturdy enough to hold their combined weight of about 75 lbs. (actually will hold to 100+ according to MB). And it is still SOOOOO easy to push, even with both kids and all their stuff in it. This stroller works great for infants as well. Both seats independently recline, and can go almost flat. Throw a blanket or sheepskin or cozy in there, and an infant will be perfectly happy (mine was). The seats adjust to whatever recline you want (no preset reclines) so as the baby gets a little older, you can sit them up a little bit at a time.The swivel front wheels allow me to manuever pretty much anywhere, so the stroller works for both inside and outside purposes. All 4 wheels actually sit UNDER the stroller, so the width of the stroller is only 29 inches, skinny enough to go through almost any doorway. And the inflatable wheels give a wonderfully smooth ride.This is my only stroller right now. I take it everywhere, since I never know when my son will decide he doesn't want to walk anymore. The downsides are minor compared to how wonderful this stroller is and how easy it is to use. It weighs about 30 pounds, but I have no problems getting it in and out of my SUV. It folds flat but is wide. There is no parent or kid tray, and the baskets on mine are small. (The 2005 version has one basket that goes under both seats, while the 2003 version has 2 baskets, one under each seat.) This stroller is a wonderful stroller and I strongly recommend it anyone looking for a double. It is well worth the money, and is a "baby" product you will get YEARS of use out of.

I bought my 2004 MBUD when my 2nd child was 9 months old. I only wish I had bought it sooner.This is so easy to steer. The four swivel wheels make it very easy to drive this in high traffic areas such as the zoo or mall or even on some trails during the weekends.The narrow width of the stroller allows me to walk to a nearby grocery store and enter/exit through the security sensors without having to lift and maneuver the stroller through the doors.It breaks down quickly when I am loading it into my SUV. However, it's a little too heavy to just pop in and out of the car when I am running quick errands.The combined weight of the stroller plus the two kids makes power walking up a hill a very good workout (or struggle  ), but you would get that with any comparable stroller.The sunshade is just adequate, but for more protection during the summer months, we just use solarveil fabric and that works well.It's a pricey stroller, but it's narrow width, maneuverability, and the ease of using it to get out of the house with 2 kids justifies the price.We've had this stroller for about a year now and have been very pleased with it!

This stroller was and is my most prized baby-gear possession. It allowed me to leave the house with two children under two when I got it and now that they are both toddlers, it is still my favorite piece of equipment.It steers beautifully and my children love to ride in it. Its weight limit is high, but its engineering makes it so that it is never hard to push or steer.I have traveled with it through airports loaded with a britax roundabout on top of it and two children in the seats and a diaper bag hanging off the handle. It has been a lifesaver on many different occasions and I cannot recommend it highly enough.
