Baby Trend Sit N Stand Plus

1. Cheapism.com

This review site, called "a Consumer Reports for the cheap" by The New York Times, names the Baby Trend Sit N Stand as one of two best cheap double strollers. This is not based upon actual testing, but rather research into product features and safety requirements, reviews from other sources and Baby Trend's elimination of luxury features that raise the price of similar products.

About 60 owners have reviewed the Baby Trend Sit N Stand Plus, ranking it 4.3 stars (out of 5). Most say it seems sturdy, is easy to fold and fits in the trunk of even smaller cars when folded, unlike traditional double strollers. Some complain that the Sit N Stand is heavy and hard to push with two children at the upper weight limits, and a number of reviewers say it seems poorly made -- buttonholes are fraying and the mesh basket has torn, even with light use. There are several complaints about poor customer service.
