I have been using this stroller for about two months. I had really wanted a "higher end" double (like a Mountain Buggy or Valco). However, I don't use the stroller that much that I felt I could justify the cost-- I use the stroller about once or twice per week.
All in all, this is a decent stroller. The basket is a decent size and it folds fairly easily. I have gotten through doors without a problem.
I find that the sunshade is lacking, and the harness buckle is kind of "tight" and hard to unbuckle. The push is not as smooth and effortless as other doubles, but it's pretty good.
Like other all terrain doubles, it's heavy and big. My three year old and three month old seem comfy in it. Regarding the price: the MSRP for this stroller is $399. At that price, I would say you're better off waiting for a sale or a discontinued model of a Mountain Buggy, Valco, Baby Jogger, etc... I bought mine on ebay for $280, which made it much more reasonable, and in a similar price point as a Schwinn. I guess I look at it as a higher end Schwinn double--- the double wheels in the front help make it a smoother push. If you want an all-terrain double, but don't think you'll be using it enough to justify a more expensive one, then this is a good choice. However, I think that the overall quality is okay, but not fabulous. If you're using this for serious walking everyday, you might be disappointed. But if you're like me and will be using it only a few times a week for a walk to the park or trip to the zoo, it should meet your needs.
