Best Sit And Stand Stroller Reviews (2019): Our Top Picks For Growing Kids

“Graco’s Roomfor2 Click Connect is a great budget option for parents with a child who’s learning to stand on their own. It’s quite basic and less sturdy than pricier models, but I think it’s the least you can pay for a decent, safe setup with all the essentials.

The Roomfor2 is essentially an inexpensive tandem stroller with a bench seat at the rear. There’s no option to put a full infant seat in the back, but the bench seat gives your older child a break from standing when they need it. It’s got basic padding and faces backward. The front seat is a standard infant seat with a safety harness and a sun shade. You can use it with Graco’s Click Connect car seats for a flexible travel system.

Overall, while the Graco is certainly an inexpensive model without many frills, it can serve very well for parents on a tighter budget. It’s not flimsy, even if it doesn’t feel as rock-solid as more expensive models. It has a decent amount of storage, basic amenities, and pretty respectable handing.

There are a number of reasons why you might want to pay more for the Baby Trend or the Joovy, though. They’re both sturdier, even though the Joovy is lighter. Those models also have independent sunshades for each passenger, while the Graco doesn’t. Likewise, they have the option to put an infant seat in the back instead of only offering a bench/platform combo. All in all, the Graco gets the job done cheaply, but I recommend spending more if you’re able.”

“Baby Trend’s Sit And Stand is my midrange recommendation in this category. It’s not too much more expensive than the Graco, but I think it’s a better design overall and made better to boot. It’s a good choice for parents who want to get something better than the budget models without spending $300+ on the Joovy.

The Baby Trend has a lot of added functionality compared to the Graco. For one thing, it includes two full infant seats, instead of one infant seat and a rear bench seat. That means both kids can be just as comfortable sitting down. It also allows you to get longer life out of this one. You can start using it when both children are at the sitting age, then ditch the rear seat when your older child starts to stand.

The Baby Trend’s folding mechanism is also much better than the Graco’s. It’s a true one-hand mechanism, which is pretty rare on sit and stand models. It has a dedicated sun shade for each seat, and offers much better coverage for both passengers.

Folks looking for a travel system will also find that the Baby Trend is a lot more flexible than the cheaper Graco. You can use it with practically any car seat on the market, not just car seats from the same brand.

The Joovy is lighter, handles better, and has more storage space, so there are some reasons why you may want to skip over the Baby Trend in favor of the Caboose Too. However, the average person can easily buy this one and save $100+ without missing too much.”

“The Joovy Caboose Too is my favorite sit and stand stroller on the market right now. It’s the lightest you can buy, despite the fact that it carries more weight and offers more storage space than the competition. I recommend it to anyone who can afford it.

In a lot of ways the Joovy is similar to the Baby Trend. It allows you to use it with two full infant seats, as well as the front seat and a rear bench/platform combo. There’s sun coverage for both children and practically universal car seat compatibility.

The biggest difference is the weight. The Joovy is significantly lighter than the Baby Trend, by nearly 10 pounds! What’s particularly impressive about that as far as I’m concerned is the fact that the Joovy feels just as sturdy, if not sturdier.

It has the best conveniences of the bunch, it’s just as versatile as the Baby Trend, and it’s not all that expensive, considering how long a useful life you can expect to get from it. As far as I’m concerned, anybody who can afford the Joovy should go for it!”
