Number one in our list of five best sit and stand stroller is the model designed by Mia Moda. The name of this brand is popular in the world of strollers and accessories for children, and have got an approval of the quality of all its production from many parents already. The sit and stand stroller created by this brand has a capacity for two children. Being equipped with the five-point harness on its back, this stroller is more maneuverable and safe than options with three-point harnesses. It has all-wheel suspension and is compatible with all car seats due to universal adapter. It is a great advantage because some models nowadays are compatible only with specific car seats and this complicates situation a bit. The weight of this stroller is equal to thirty-four pounds, which make it the heaviest option in our list. But this can be an advantage also because due to such weight the stroller stands studier on the ground in comparison with other options.
The stroller is equipped with the tray for parents, adjustable handlebars and can be easily folded. The main disadvantage of this sit and stand stroller is that its canopy covers only one of the children. So, you should care about sun protection for your toddler who will be riding behind.

Next option in our review of five best and the most popular sit and stand strollers is the model designed by Joovy Caboose manufacturer. Yes, the same brand as the previous option was made by. We think that both these options worth your attention because of their high-end features and good quality. First of all, you should notice that this one is the lower-level model, so don’t expect such top-notch features as the previously reviewed option has. The weight of this stroller is twenty-eight pounds, which is heavier than the Caboose Ultralight model has, but still is less than many options available nowadays can offer. The construction of this sit and stand stroller is similar to other options reviewed in our article, it is equipped with the bench for the toddler and with the front seat for the baby. When choosing you should note that seats are quite narrow and you will not be able to use this stroller for several years because your children will overgrow it. Nevertheless, if you see that your toddler doesn’t have enough place to feel it comfortable, you can increase it by reclining the front seat. This can give more room to your elder child without causing any inconveniences to an infant.
This stroller has limits of weight, for the safest use you shouldn’t exceed the limit of forty- five pounds both at the rear and front parts of the stroller. Among the main advantages of this model are its canopy, which perfectly covers both children and the good maneuverability. This sit and stand stroller is equipped with the five-point harness in the front part and four-wheel suspension, which gives you an ability to ride smoothly. This model by Joovy Caboose is compatible with all types of car seats where the adaptor is included, which is one more great advantage.
Among disadvantages of this model are the absence of the parent tray (however the tray is included on the front side of the stroller) and not an excellent flexibility while arranging seating and positioning. Also, some parents note that the storage area of this option is not as large as it could be, which also causes some inconveniences.
All in all, this model is one of the most popular among sit and stand strollers which you can purchase nowadays and is equipped with all the necessary features. Two-years warranty from the manufacturer is a great advantage also.

Finally, we have got to the pioneers of the sit and stand strollers. These incredibly convenient strollers have been invented by the Baby Trend company and got a great popularity in the very short time period. There is nothing surprising in it, for the families with two children of different age this model of stroller will be an excellent purchase. Your toddler will be able to sit or stand comfortably at the back side of this stroller, while the baby will sit on its front side. The last option in our list designed by the Baby Trend company has limits of weight equal to fifty pounds both for the rear and front sides. This weight is larger than many other similar options offer, but even with such limits, you will be able to use this stroller even when one of your kids reaches the weight of fifty-five or sixty pounds. This model is one of the safest available nowadays due to the five-point front harness and three-point back harness.
Ultra sit and stand stroller is compatible with the majority of car seats designed by such popular brands as Evenflo, Graco, Britax and Safety 1st. It is also the model with a good versatility because you are able to use it in the usual way when toddler stands or sits behind and a baby sits in the front side of the stroller, as well as you can attach the car seat above the front sit on in the back. Also, you are able to turn the car seat facing mother in order to control the baby and interact with it. Moreover, you will be able to place two car seats for your children when walking, placing one of them in the back and one in front of the stroller. Not a limited choice of possible options, yeah?
This model is also equipped with the parent tray where two holders for cups are positioned and the special tray for the baby in the front, where there is a special place for the sippy cup. Among other advantages of the current model is very spacious storage compartment which is a unique feature of this model worth to be boast of, because a lot of similar models have a problem of a small storage area. Also, the current model has a large canopy which can be removed when you don’t need it. Among small drawbacks of this model are its length and comparably small wheels. Ultra stroller is longer than other similar sit and stand strollers and because of this can’t boast of a very good maneuverability.
