Baby Trend Expedition Double Jogging Stroller, Skylar

One of the best selling double jogging strollers in the market is the Baby Trend Skylar Expedition Double Jogging Stroller.

It is seen as a good value jogging stroller for the price.

When you get the Baby Trend Skylar Expedition Double Jogging Stroller you would get the following features in the stroller:

• Foldable stroller
• Front Swivel pneumatic wheels
• Reclining seats
• Oversized fender
• Ratcheting canopy
• Multi position reclining seats
• 5 point harness
• Mp3 hook up

Of course, these features are not useful if they would not deliver. So I tried testing them out, and here are the things that I liked and disliked about the Baby Trend Skylar Expedition Double Jogging Stroller.

Things that I like:

• Easy to assemble

What I like best about the Baby Trend Skylar Expedition Double Jogging Stroller is that it is very easy to assemble. Unlike other double jogging strollers, this Baby Trend Double Jogging stroller comes with very easy to follow instructions that would not confuse you when you are setting it up.

• Good Handling

Owing to the swivel wheels that the Baby Trend Skylar Expedition Double Jogging Stroller uses, the maneuverability is great. Turning and moving around even in constricted places is a breeze.

I also like the fact that when I lock the front swivel wheel, there is very little wiggle, which allows me  to increase my jogging pace.

• Mp3 hook up

Sometimes jogging around the neighborhood can get boring or stale, that’s why I truly enjoyed having some musical accompaniment while I jog. The easy to use hook up and speakers enable me to have some background music while I go around.

It also helps entertain my babies especially when I play some music that they enjoy.

What I don’t like about the stroller:

While I like the Baby Trend Skylar Expedition Double Jogging Stroller, there are still quite a few things that they could have improved on it.

• Dividing the Under-seat storage

The Baby Trend Skylar Expedition Double Jogging Stroller features an under-seat storage that is split into two by a center divider. This means that instead of a bigger storage area, what you get are two long and narrow compartments.

While it could still fit most of my items, it becomes quite a nuisance for people who use very large diaper bags.

• Wide body

Being a double jogging stroller, the body of the Baby Trend Skylar Expedition Double Jogging Stroller is quite large. This can become troublesome when you are entering areas where they have narrow doors.

This is evident when I got to the mall while using the stroller. On some stores, I am able to fit the stroller easily, but on some stores, I would have to do some tricky positioning just to be able t enter or exit the shop.

The Bottom line:

The Baby Trend Skylar Expedition Double Jogging Stroller is a stroller that I would highly recommend for parents who have two children that are in an ange range that are close to each other. The benefits or advantages provided by the stroller far outweigh the disadvantages that it has.

Perhaps the only thing that  parents should really consider before going all in with the Baby Trend Skylar Expedition Double Jogging Stroller is the width of their doors. They should just ensure that the stroller would be able to get into their houses even with its wide frame. Other than that, the Baby Trend Skylar Expedition Double Jogging Stroller is already a good buy.
